I like this place so I dine here A LOT. The staff is attentive, some are friendlier than others but service is ALWAYS good. The weekends are crazy busy 10 am to 1 pm. For years, I've gotten the same thing: The American. It's good. The bacon keeps changing from okay to fantastic and now back to okay. I'm picky about how my eggs are cooked and the kitchen takes my instruction and cooks my eggs properly. The menu has a decent variety of breakfast and lunch fare. People I have dined with over the years all liked their food. Is it gourmet or the best breakfast you'll ever eat? No, but it is consistently good, the kitchen is accommodating, the restaurant and bathrooms are very clean, there's ample parking, and it is a nice dining experience. I take my mom here often and she always sees someone she knows or meets someone and starts a chit-chat. It's a friendly atmosphere. My faves: The breakfast potatoes. They are red-skinned potatoes cooked with the skin on and pan-fried with onions and seasoning. read more

On my Saturday morning breakfast quest I stumbled upon the reviews for Eggcellence.. I must say after trying another egg themed restaurant in the area I didnt think another could compare, boy was I surprised! The service was fairly quick as we were seated within 7 minutes of arrival, and the servers made it feel more like breakfast at a family members home rather than in a restaurant. Our food came out quickly and everything was delicious! I ordered the pancakes they had on special and my breakfast partner ordered regular pancakes, both of us were overly satisfied with our meals! The pancakes were rather large for me and i couldnt finish them but thats more of a personal problem than anything they could have done. It was also a nice cherry on top when they asked if we would like a refill of our coffee to go, not many places does that! The only reason i deducted a star was upon sitting at the table one of the coffee mugs and a set of silverware appeared not to be cleaned properly, but since there was only two of us at a four person table I switched it out with a set that wasnt being used. read more

My eggsperience was awesome! Great service, food, prices are to be found here! Wow who would have thought you could get ratatouille for breakfast? Loved the smoked salmon! read more

Eggcellence Brunchery - This place is the perfegg to a "T". LOL The service & food fantastic! Ratatouille for breakfast phenomenal! Loved the smoked salmon. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Annapolis, Maryland

THE PRESERVES - go for the preserves!!! But nothing else... They do have "preserves" on the table which you don't see at many places anymore and I thought was a nice touch but given the fact that I don't eat much jam and the food was let's just say "sub-par" I wouldn't recommend this spot unless of course you are fine with double bogie golf First time here and I ordered the Marylander - it's a crab, tomato, Swiss omelette with avocado on top served with fried potatoes and toast Let's get down to it... Eggs were fine Crab was not good: didn't taste fresh, had a shell and minimal quantity Tomatoes weren't fresh Too much Swiss cheese Avocado underripe Potatoes too oily and overdone The loafed rye bread was fine But the preserves!!! Go for the preserves ;) read more

Great brunch spot! It's a small quaint place, and the employees are very friendly. Annapolis is known for seafood so there's no surprise there are plenty of brunch inspired crab dishes on the menu. I had the Chesapeake Benedict, two poached eggs over English muffins with crabmeat served with a side of hash browns. It was absolutely delicious! My husband has the pancakes with eggs and bacon. He said the pancakes were the best! You'll love it. read more

I love this place. It's all about the warm greeting you get from Willy when you get there. He knows my name and welcomes me and whomever I am with. He makes people feel good about coming there. The food is very good. The service is friendly. The prices are reasonable. We go there on Sundays after church and often there is a wait but it goes quick. We enjoy going there. It's our local Sunday Brunch place. read more

Charming and delightful. Fresh and delicious. This cozy spot is a genteel and welcome change of pace. I couldn't resist the beckoning of their "famous" cinnamon rolls. My husband, my son and I ordered one as a starter to share. It was warm, gooey and decadent. The icing was a tad bit heavier than I would have liked but the roll itself was perfectly buttery and soft with just the right amount of cinnamon, sugar and whatever other spices/seasonings were in this pleasant confection. As a main course I had the sampler which afforded me a taste of the sausage, bacon , eggs, potatoes and French toast. Most impressive from this selection was the sausage. This is truly a testimony to the quality and freshness of the food here because I am not a meat lover. I am in fact a carbohydrate addict but the savory-ness of the sausage here won me over even though the potatoes held their own seasoned well with fragrant onions. It's like the flavor of each ingredient was distinct and organic. The cherry on top is the hospitality. All the personnel are friendly, helpful and eager to serve. It was the perfect choice for a Valentine's day brunch. read more

Okkaaayy...so I decided to have breakfast here based on the reviews. I'm not sure whose pallet wrote the previous reviews. Sorry I was sat quickly; maybe 5 minutes as I was alone. Coffee was great! The food came quickly; plain waffle, scrambled eggs and potatoes. I asked for the waffle to be cooked soft because I'm a waffle connoisseur and realize that batters vary. It wasn't cooked soft and my suspicions were correct, the texture was weird. Cold syrup. The potatoes had a little flavor but also tasted like old cooking oil. The eggs were eggs My waitress was inattentive, perhaps because I was alone but that shouldn't matter. She didn't come over ONE time to see how the food was or if I needed anything. She also didn't bring the food. So I literally didn't have any service from her until I asked. I had to wave her down for napkins and more syrup half way through my meal. No, they weren't busy. Overall, not $20 well spent. I could've just gone to Panera. read more

l'll admit that this spot is on my one and done list. Nice enough establishment but it seemed something was lacking. Maybe I was all in my feelings this morning but if I ask for buttered wheat toast don't bring me the toast and butter and hint that I should do it myself. I did like how they had the preserves in little jars on the table. I had the strawberry preserves and it was yummy. There was a 20 minute wait to be seated. I didn't mind because it is the weekend breakfast/brunch crowd around 1000. I ordered the hot tamale frittata that came with breakfast potatoes and wheat toast. I expected it to be a little spicier but I remedied that by adding a few splashes of tabasco to my items. All items were flavorful and I was satisfied with the portion. Plenty of options to choose from depending on how hungry you are. Parking can be a challenge since it's in an area where there are neighboring stores. read more

We went here on one of our girls trips in Annapolis on Saturday morning for brunch. The wait staff was great, no wait to be seated, the food was fast, the servers were very friendly. I split the classic eggs Benedict and the trio Blintzes with one of my friends. The eggs Benedict was perfect and tasted great. The blintzes were also a nice sweet compliment to the savory. Overall, loved the place! read more

Very kind and curtious staff. They move quickly and there was no wait time at all to be seated. Good food and they even made their own jam. I got the salmon Benedict and it was delicious. Subbed my potatoes for grits (too watery but I won't take off for that as grits are always hit or miss). I wish they had more pancake/crepe options but maybe one day. read more

Food was excellent, and so was the service! We had the Greek omelette and it was packed with goodness. Great place to go. Clean and friendly service. read more

this review is for my second visit .. i brought my natural sugar .. the provided sugar is very good ( individual packettes of dominos ) .. everything was great .. this will be my go to breakfast spot now! read more

Bottom Line: An off-the-beaten-path spot for delicious breakfast served in a homey atmosphere. One of the things I really like about Eggcellence is that its out of the fray so its easy to find a parking spot and wait times are shorter than other locales. Additionally, the atmosphere here is very homey and service is very attentive. It's nice too that the restaurant is split up into a few smaller rooms because I find that keeps the noise and chaos down. Eggcellence is only opened for breakfast and lunch but they have a varied menu to suit all appetities. I personally like Eggcellence for their Steak & Eggs Benedict in the morning. read more

Almond dark cherry muffin was today's fresh baked. Yummy! Crab hash was well made, good flavors. Staff friendly and easy morning start to day. Thank you Kristen for your great service. read more

What a cute little place to go for brunch! I would definitely take advantage of their call ahead service, as it gets really busy! We had to wait 25 mins but learned upon arrival we could have called 10 mins before arriving to place our name on the list.. The food was really delicious, we ordered a waffle, French toast and eggs. The waffle was tasty and you have the option of ordering a whole or half which I really enjoyed as I never finish a full one! The eggs were cooked well and it came with freshly made toast, potatoes and your choice of breakfast meat. The French toast was tasty, and made with a cinnamon bread. The service was very quick and the food also came out quickly. Would definitely recommend and return! Enjoy :) read more

This place was delightful. We had a party of 8 and came on a bustling Saturday. The manager was accommodating and friendly, clearly letting us know how long the wait would be and working to make sure we got seating in a timely manner when our party arrived. Once we got seated- fairly quickly considering- our server brought out food quickly and it was delicious! I particularly enjoyed their french toast. All in all we had a wonderful experience. read more

Thanks William :) Great services. Clean restaurant. Friendly workers. Loved the spot.

Wow what a great place. Was in Annapolis for a lacrosse tournament and found this place on Yelp, it is tucked away in a strip mall so your GPS may not find it. This place is well worth the trip. Get the Crabs Benedict, excellent crab meat and seasoning, also the breakfast burrito is great they will also give you a coffee to go read more

This place was not what one might think from the outside. The inner ambiance and layout is a actually pretty nice; they've done well for the small space! Staff was friendly, food was fresh, and there are lots of options to choose from for all (even non-egg based meal loving people like me). Also, the food arrived pretty quickly, service was fast & the price was right on par for all considered. read more

This is simply a good restaurant with a focus on breakfast and lunch only. Let's just say mission accomplished! Homemade preserves and fast service is just what you need when you are waiting on the most important meal of the day, breakfast! If you are in the Annapolis area you must stop in Eggcellence. Do not be fooled by the exterior (it is in a strip mall) they have good food. I recommend any of the Frittas and the pancakes are a must! read more

Torn about this review. Four stars for attentive, efficient service and fresh delicious food. I wasn't a big fan of the decor or ambience. The food and environment is very traditional.... Not trendy or innovative in any way. So if you're interested in a fresh, well-prepared standard breakfast sitting indoors this place is an excellent choice. read more

Would give a 5 except for the creamed chipped beef was not to my liking...The scrambled burrito has become my favorite! At least once a week we order from Grubhub for this deliciousness! read more

My boyfriend and I have been here a couple of times and we love to eat here. The portions are big and the food is so good! They have amazing smoothies too. The employees were very kind and the service was prompt. I definitely recommend going! read more

Best Dining Experience I have had in Years!! The food was great, the options were diverse, and the service was fast and attentive. Moreover, the restaurant was clean and bustling with people. Yet, that never took away from the individual dining experience. In addition, Will the Manager was exceptional. He took the time to speak to guests, run items to tables and even give us recommendations for other places in town. We will definitely be coming back! Well done! read more

I've been here twice when my boyfriend used to live in Annapolis. It's a nice little restaurant tucked in a shopping center. I like to call it a best kept secret away from Downtown Annapolis. Both times, we got seated relatively quickly. The omelets are pretty. They have really good home fries as well. I love their food because it's tastes fresh, unlike the mess you get at IHOP or Denny's. Service is good as well. read more

My husband and I decided at the last minute to get some breakfast Sunday morning after church. We were going to do some shopping, so I checked Yelp to see what was close by. We decided to give Eggcellence a try and we are so glad we did. The service was wonderful, our food came out quickly and was delicious! Even though they are a little bit out of our way, we will definitely be back! read more

Good food and friendly staff. Very organized and clean. It got really busy and they worked as a team to continue being attentive for us and others. read more

this was surprising really good. it's extremely small and quaint. Food is good though! reminds me of chicago "diners" .

My son had the cobb sandwich and said it was really good and the chicken was flavorful. I had the breakfast sampler. The bacon was above average. Good service. The waitress was very on top of things. read more

Simple yet great breakfast/brunch place. Neatly tucked away on the strip mall next to Petsmart. The staffs and waiters are amazing and attentive. We saw their hours are until 2:00 pm online and went in at 1:55 pm with time to spare but found out their new summer hours are shorter and they closes at 1pm instead. However, the manager was a gentleman and arranged a table for us. My wife had the Sampler Omlette and i had the Crab Hash. Both were equally great and their coffee was fresh. The Banana/Mango smoothie was awesome and my wife loved it. We will be back. read more

This is among my favorite breakfast places in Annapolis. Depending on the time of day there can be a substantial wait. The venue is not large, but the food is alway worth the wait. I've had everything from omelettes, pancakes to oatmeal. I've sampled almost everything on the menu and I've never been disappointed. The food is always fresh and taste like it came from the farm to the table. Every visit, I leave satiated. I highly recommend this place for breakfast. read more

I just finished my breakfast of a mushroom, bacon omelet with scrapple and potatoes and it was very good. I also had the pleasure of trying the orange cream muffin and it was amazing!!!! I will be back!! Also, the strawberry preserve for the toast was homemade and absolutely delicious. A great breakfast all round. read more

Small place but great food selection & staff was friendly. Had crab omelette and it had plenty of crab.

This was our first visit to Excellence. The food was great, service was great and the cost was great and great selection. If your looking for a place for a good breakfast I highly recommend Excellence in Annapolis. read more

Visited this place for breakfast. It's been years since I've been there. I decided to try something new to me, I got the crab hash. It was a great choice!!! I would order it again in a heart beat. read more

Great place for Brunch. Service was great and food excellent. Had the tortilla salad was very filling. Will eat here again.

All of these glowing reviews are really shocking. My experience at Eggcellence was 'okay,' but really nothing to shine-on about. The service was prompt and great. The food however.... left a lot to be desired. I got the Crab hash Benedict. Crab meat mixed with potatoes with eggs Benedict and hollandaise, a dash of old bay. The potatoes had no seasoning. The eggs were 'medium' cooked, instead of soft. Overall not all that impressed. Spouse loves this place, so I guess I'll be back. I'll try something different next time to see if I can be won over. read more

Food was incredible. We went here for brunch and showed up the wait was about 10 mins not very bad at all and expected for a busy Sunday. Sat down was greeted and drink order was taken. I myself had the crab omelette and let me tell you take one bite and it is like heaven on earth. Prices were good I would recommend and will be returning. read more

Breakfast was delicious and the staff was super friendly. Definitely making another trip here in the future!
