The Egg Yolk Cafe could be a really great place. It has plenty of parking and is a good sized place. When you arrive, you need to wait to be seated. There was a group ahead of me so there was a wait for any of us to be acknowledged. Although after I was eventually seated those that came later were pretty much immediately acknowledged and seated. I was seated in a booth so could see the whole restaurant. Service was ok. I ordered the eggs benedict and it came out with runny yolks so I was happy with that. The dish was good but I don't think I'd return next time in town.

It was a long line the food was pretty good only thing I didn't like was that they left my bacon off my plate so I had no meat just pancakes when trying to call back could not get an answer But overall pretty good food I would come back again with my babies

Eggs Benedict and hash browns.

Terrible food and so-so service! What brunch restaurant IN THE SOUTH runs out of grits, biscuits and BACON! That should have been my first clue! No hostess came to seat me. A lady at the back waved me to a table. I ordered the Eggs Benedict w/out onion and hash browns. The hash browns were cold. The muffins for my Benedict were not toasted. There was a half a slice of Canadian bacon on each muffin. Was there a supply chain issue!? I try to support local, but I've never been so thoroughly disappointed in a restaurant. My suggestion: go to Waffle House instead (which I did). Way overpriced for what you get! ($13 for my meal)

I gave my work colleague a choice between two restaurants for breakfast and he picked this one. The place was easy to find and they had a few tables available for breakfast on a Sunday morning. We were promptly greeted and seated. The menu was quite simple for breakfast consisting of two pages. They did put more of an emphasis on pancakes as they had a few different selections like a blueberry pancake or a sweet potato pancake. I went with the Hungry Man which was two eggs, one bacon, one sausage, grits, a pancake and a biscuit. I paid extra for gravy to take that biscuit to the next level. I'm not a huge fan of grits but I rarely eat them. I gave it a try since I was in NC. The food came out at an acceptable pace. The staff was on top of coffee refills but the service wasn't entirely friendly. The food was OK as is most breakfast places. The prices were on par with what I typically pay in CA. I was just passing through and am not likely to return to the area; however, if I do return to the area I will likely give a different place a try. Three stars!

Stopped in for breakfast today. We had a bit of a wait, maybe 30 minutes, but it is Sunday and most places are packed after church. I had the Veggie Delight with a side of bacon and the Triple Fruit smoothie. I was happy with all of it. I would have liked more hollandaise sauce but didn't ask for any additional. Overall it was a good meal.

Very good food! Came out very fast. I had the French toast and bacon. They have a typical breakfast menu. Sunshine was a great waitress.

Very slow to be seated with many open tables. Slow service. There should be more than 2 servers on a Sunday morning.

I went here for a business dinner. I'm a foodie, and to be honest, when I looked at the menu, I…read morewasn't sure what to expect because it looked like an unfocused/random selection of dishes. However, I'm glad to say my instincts were completely wrong on this one. My business colleagues told me all the ingredients are locally sourced, and the based of taking diner food and making it a little more modern (without the pretentiousness). The space matches the concept - modern diner. I tried the following: - Daily Bread: Very good. Nothing like freshly bread and butter. - Spaetzle Mac & Cheese: Excellent. I've had spaetzle and and I've had mac & cheese, and this was as good as interpretation of mac & cheese I've ever had. A lot of my colleagues thought this was the most memorable dish of the night. - Pickled Things: Good. I always like trying new things, and pickled blueberries and fried saltines were new to me. Really nice surprises. - Daily NC Catch (Trout): Very good. Trout was just as perfect as can be with a nice crispy sear on the skin, and meat was still tender. The risotto underneath was good, but a bit over-seasoned. Service was incredible. The server was interactive, fun, attentive and doing a masterful job of single-handedly managing a table of over 12 people, which is never easy. Overall, a great meal. Really great food with service that made us feel like restaurant regulars. If I happen to visit Greenville NC again, I would definitely make sure to return.

Writing an updated review for Native after our recent trip. The mac & cheese was delicious as…read morealways. My husband had the half chicken dish and it looked good. The daily catch was trout and the beef was a hanger steak. We weren't too sold on either tonight so I got the chicken sandwich. The chicken was cooked really well but there was so much hot sauce on it, I would def ask for it on the side if you're not someone who wants hot sauce dripping through your bun. Also got the truffle fries which tasted a lot like oil and were just ok! The server we had was very friendly but we sat with empty waters (hard when you have a very hot sauce-y sandwich) and the girl walking around with water walked right past us at one point. Native is typically where we go for our celebration dinners, tonight being our two year wedding anniversary, and I think we will switch it up next time because of this trip.

We got takeout from here last night, we ordered a big family meal so my husband could take it to…read morework the next few days. We got the pulled pork and chopped brisket, cornbread, mac n cheese, baked beans and a bottle of sauce (included). We felt the value for amount of food was great, and I loved that they included smaller containers of most, if not all, of their sauces so we could try them! The corn bread was great, a couple pieces were pretty dark but still warm and fresh. The baked beans, for me, was a highlight! They were so good, whatever sauce they're cooked in was SO good, I ended up dipping my pulled pork/ brisket into that instead of the sauces!! So good!!! Our kids liked the Mac n cheese, we thought it was pretty good too! Loved that the pulled pork came with no sauce, made it super easy to portion it out for my husband and keep it fresh. Thee brisket came sauced, but the flavor was really good so we were fine with that! Overall, we'd definitely do this once in a while. It was about $90 total for the family meal, which is a little steep for a regular family meal. But flavor was great, everything was fresh, and we very much enjoyed it and will have leftovers for days!!

This review is based on the food only. The cheeseburger patty had too much pepper; it was a little…read moretoo greasy. I could barely taste any beef from the burger patty. The French fries were okay nothing special. I have made better at home using potatoes from Walmart. If I eat here again it will not be the burger and fries!!
