We went for breakfast on a Sunday morning, planned it to arrive when they opened at 9:00 as did other folks. The place filled up fast! We walked in and were greeted and seated right away. The space is open with high ceilings and tall windows. Lots of art on the walls, available for purchase. Service consisted of a few different servers; all were efficient and friendly. We took a bit to figure out what we were ordering but our server was ready when we were. I was leaning towards the Chakchouka but at the last moment decided on El Cerdo - Carnita potato, spinach, corn, jalapeno, and 2 poached eggs covered in tomato-chipotle salsa. Coffee was hot and fresh and kept refilled. When my dish came out, it was so delicious looking! Turns out it tasted so as well! The eggs were cooked perfectly and the combination of all the ingredients mixed well together. I loved the hint of jalapeno throughout. It will be hard not to order this again. The building is a shared space, and the restroom is down a hallway. It was clean and well stocked. They have another location but haven't visited as of yet read more

I came here for brunch with my Dad, bonus mom and sister because I saw they had a frozen espresso martini, and I have to try it. They had a small weight but nothing too long maybe five minutes and then we were seated. This place is small, but cute and the service was great. I loved the frozen espresso martini and the food was cooked to perfection. Next time I'm home I will visit. read more

Egg is the perfect name for this Benton Park spot. Eggs as a food staple seem simple and straightforward, but they're almost magical in all of the ways they can be used. From the outside, Egg the restaurant looks unassuming, but the moment you open the door and see the lovely and interesting decor and smell the aromas from the kitchen, you know it is something special as well. The owner is very welcoming, as if he is inviting you to his home, which is lovely. We ordered the Chakchouka with merguez and the ojja with shrimp. Both were completely delicious. I added a turmeric latte, which was unique and so warming. There are so many more items on the menu I want to try, so I know I'll be back soon--but it'll be hard for Mr not to order the ojja again; it was so good! read more

I'm obsessed with Egg. I frequent both locations. When I am looking for some great food to help me feel happy, Egg is one of the first thoughts that comes in my mind. I love bringing people here. I always get great service and the food comes out fast. There is commonly plenty of room at the bar, if you can't get a table. One thing that I like about this location is the look of the place - it's small, but the artistic nature of it is visually pleasing. read more

Always a great brunch spot! Love the food and atmosphere. Small menu but they do everything 10/10. You can't go without getting a Benedict... Specifically the pork belly one. It's on top of corn bread and will change your life. read more

7/26 was our last time in after supporting them weekly and hoping they are successful. We have enjoyed the food but it's going down. Showed up at noon. Barely anyone there. Stood at the front for at least 10min before we saw anyone. Finally the dude shows up and throws to menus on a table. I timed it, 15 min and no one came back. So we got up and left. Almost 30min in the restaurant and no one came to take a drink order or even acknowledge we were there. Same for the table of 4 next to us. Not sure but I heard them talking about leaving as well. Bummer. Good luck making it when you don't wait on the people in the place. read more

The atmosphere and food is ALWAYS delicious. The only complaint I have is as our server Billy was very impolite. Didn't ask how our food was didn't come back and check for refills or anything. Other than that this place is absolutely amazing and the young lady that's also a server I think Devon is her name try and get her! read more

Ask about the special! Shrimp and grits was not on the menu but it was an eggceptional special. The shrimp were cooked perfectly but could use 2 more pieces. It's flavorful and slightly spicy. My first visit but not the last. All the dishes that came out were a big portion. The service was good. There is no cold/ice coffee. They serve alcohol with bar seating. A bit small, not best for a large party. They opened at 9am and full by 10. read more

Ordered two eggs over medium and they were totally raw. Sent them back and then they came back totally well done.

I got brunch at this place recently with a friend on a Sunday morning around 10. She had the mahi-mahi Benedict and I had the cornbread pork belly Benedict. Neither one disappointed. I'm not a big fan of breakfast potatoes but I do love theirs for some reason. Our server was also the bartender and while he wasn't super friendly, he was attentive and took care of everything we needed. The only minus to this place is they don't have a solid host game. When you walk in, no one tends to pay attention or come over to seat you. I walked and waited for a few minutes, then walked up to the bar and asked if bar was open seat seating and he said no sorry though please wait to be seated sign isn't up. He seemed slightly annoyed that I even asked, but I had been standing there for a few minutes and I know he saw me. He immediately said to me at a table, but the people behind me were all still just standing there and he did not even address them. I get it. He was kind of the only one available, but I would at least yell to the people at the front, I'll be right with you so they at least feel acknowledged. read more

Brunch after Tower grove market. A easy drive from the park. Sign/location a little difficult to see from the street. Cosy seating. Aztec art. Service was friendly and quick with seating, drinks and food. Meals ordered- tostadas, pulled pork hash and French toast. The French toast was fluffy and sweet and a great chase to the more spiced and savory items. read more

I've loved egg for years! The food genuinely is so good. The menu isn't huge but everything is a big hit. The pancakes are super buttery and I love the fresh fruit.

Food was a boiled mess. The veggie skillet was a compost soup of the leftover veggies. You think veggie skillet and you expect onion, mushroom, spinach, etc. Unfortunately, none of those were present and instead I got beets, broccoli, cabbage, zucchini, and whatever else was sitting around. The bottom of the dish was a pool of water so everything ended up tasting like beets. The eggs and hollandaise would have been good if it didn't mix into the warm water underneath. Even after adding loads of salt and hot sauce it still wasn't salvageable. That's just my dish, my partner ordered the special of a medium strip steak and eggs and wasn't much better off. The owner(?) made a point to mention that it was underpriced at $27, but when the gray, overcooked, steamed hunk came out... we'd pay $27 to not eat it again. The bartender was working her butt off and there are other dishes that maybe seem like they're worth getting, but after our experience we wouldn't give it another chance. Our order was overpriced, we did not get our moneys worth for the awful quality that we got, paying $75 for those dishes, a drip coffee, an OJ, and a tip for the bustling bartender. read more

We stopped here on a weekday morning because it's been on the list. They had a couple open tables so there was no wait to be seated. It took a little while to get the order in because they looked short staffed and busy. Ordered the Shakshouka (too much seasoning and I'm a season and spice lover) and Corn Benedict (good but on the sweet side) -of course that's only my opinion. We were there about 45mins- hour. No one checked on us once and we had to flag someone down to pay. Once again they seemed short staffed so maybe that's why. read more

We went on a Wed morning based on the reviews, and was not disappointed. The weekday menu is different from the weekend menu. We were the only ones there and the service was attentive and served quickly but cooked to order. I felt like I was eating breakfast in Mexico with the decoration and food. The homemade pancakes were the best I've had Good size portions - we didn't leave hungry! read more

The Egg is a wonderful place to sit back and enjoy an espresso while visiting with your friends and family. The food was excellent and the ambiance was darling. read more

Out of the norm kind of place built on what used to be industrial I imagine. You walk in and immediately your sense go wild. The 'food smells' were alluring and hit my endorphins like a Mike Tyson punch. Bam!!! The food was amazing I had the corn bread Benedict. Delish! Kids had scrambled eggs and bacon. Def amazing bacon. My other daughter had the tostado and really enjoyed it. To not off with Mexican Coles and we have a winner. The only down side was the service. The waitress basically ignored us after she took the order... literally. I tried to get her attention for ketchup, napkins, a refill of my first coffee. Eventually had to wave down another. It wasn't that busy where I would ignore it. The food outweighed the service so I am still giving it 5 stars. read more

is it possible to have a slower worst service restaurant in st. louis? the answer is a No. slow. lazy. stoned. disengaged. disregarding the most fundamental customer service. If you're from st louis you'd know that there are horrible restraints and fast food chains with slow service and mid food. this wins, hands down, for worst service in the midwest. this revenue is of BOTH locations btw. read more

Have been looking for a place that serves chakchouka for a while & finally did, and didn't disappoint. So much flavor in every bite! Friends got the breakfast tacos and French Toast!

My second time at Egg, but a different location on Gravois! When I walked in, I was greeted like they knew me & was immediately sat at a table! I couldn't decide which route to go but I tried the breakfast tacos which did not disappoint! I tried the veggie taco & also the short rib taco. They were both boasting with flavor & surprisingly not too messy for me! I also split the French toast with my friend & it had great flavor. Of course I ordered a brunch beverage which was the Sidi Bou Spritz! Chefs kiss. I loved the vibe for brunch because it has plenty of natural light, although a little loud it wasn't horrible to have a conversation. When I walked in there was a huge St. Bernard sitting on the floor so it makes me think it's pet friendly but I would definitely check before you show up with your furry friend. Check out Egg on Gravois! read more

The service was excellent, I was immediately greeted and told I could sit anywhere. A gentleman came right over and told me the specials. My food and cappuccino were served promptly. It was a quiet atmosphere and I was able to enjoy my breakfast with my earbuds in. The only small critique I could have is that the omelette (shrimp omelette which was a special) was a little too heavy on the spice and too light on the cheese. The latte was really heavy on the cinnamon and not the sweet. Other than that I really liked this visit and will be back when I'm in the area again. Side note: I came here a couple of years back and since then, they have remodeled and it's gorgeous! read more

I had the pork belly Benedict, and she had the salmon hash special with the French toast. All 3 were amazing!! Best tasting brunch we've had maybe ever. Don't forget to get the fresh squeezed orange juice !!! read more

I love the vibes of this spot for a weekend breakfast/brunch option. I got the El Cerdo Hash, "The Pig", and it was a tremendous mix of flavors. I don't normally go for the poached eggs - but it makes sense for this dish. The flavor profile of it all together was worth it for anyone looking for something more than the traditional American breakfast. read more

In STL for the day and I researched a good breakfast spot to hit while in town. Decent reviews so my daughter and I headed over to check it out. She got the French toast. Now mind you, she wasn't hungry on the train ride nor the Uber ride to the restaurant. She cleaned her plate of French toast in 2.5 seconds. I ordered a mimosa. Was NOT prepared for freshly squeezed Orange juice. It was delicious. I would have had more but needed to get In with the day. I ordered something that I found sooooo interesting and dang on delicious!!! Cornbread Benedict with pork belly. Man!! I LOVED this breakfast. The hash browns on the side were tasty too. The only complaint is the pork belly wasn't porky, it wasn't salty. If you're considering this spot, highly recommend! read more

I don't even know where to begin. My belly and my heart are so happy rn. The food was incredible. We had the breakfast tacos (asada), Mezcal Palomas, shrimp omelette. I've also been to the other location and had the sopes de chorizo so good. The flavors are amazing and even more than just the food. The vibe is excellent. The owner and servers are always such friendly people. I felt like I was having breakfast at my relatives house. The owner brought me some carnitas and salsa to try out. OMG do yourself a favor and try their carnitas! Thank you for an amazing experience. read more

Had the pleasure of stopping into @eggstl for brunch yesterday, and we tried to get the whole spread. The true highlights of the meal were the Latte Orzatas and the special of Barbacoa and Grits. I had never tried their Latte Orzata, but I know I'll never skip ordering it again. The sweetness mixed with the espresso was just incredible. The Barbacoa and Grits (on the bottom) was incredibly flavorful. The barbacoa is hiding underneath the perfectly runny eggs. The salsa and pico on top added a nice bite of acidity on top of the barbacoa. The grits were truly the star of the show. It was so much flavor packed on the bottom of the plate. Stop by Egg quick to grab that special! read more

Amazing experience! We tried a number of items including the (pictured) Corn Bread Benedict, French Toast, a Chorizo taco, and we each got a Cafe Mocha. All were excellent - with the Cafe Mocha being a real coffee standout and one of the best we had. Would definitely get the Cornbread Benedict again - it was more food than u thought hence us adding the taco - which was good but I would pass on next time, simply because we were full. Will visit again! read more

Okay so this is the thing with brunch in STL you can't make a reservation. Which I kinda get but honestly I'd rather know my time than plan on waiting 30-45 min sooo plan on a wait. After your long wait you will be treated to the most mediocre service complete with being ignored for 20 minutes upon being sat (yes I know places get busy but have staff that can handle it). The brunch itself is average nothing great and my sister said hers was coated in salt. Overall I won't be back there are other spots I can have the same wait times and better service with better brunch. read more
