    Healthy Bowl
    Lizabeth Y.

    Spontaneously decided to have breakfast at this location since I see it driving on Northwest Expressway. Greeted immediately upon coming in and the staff was very sweet and attentive. Honestly, food was whatever. Nothing surprising. Service was better than the food.

    Great Breakfast! Found this on Yelp. Very nice, clean place. Looks small on outside but plenty of seating. Ordered the Bowl with meats over potatoes. Asked for salsa too, 2 were $2.98 extra. Husband ordered the country bowl over Hashbrowns. Both good. You even get a side too. We got pancakes and then biscuits n gravy. They give you 2 biscuits but just enough gravy for 1. Next time I will just tell them 1 Biscut. They will charge probably for extra gravy. Plenty to fill you up.

    What an amazing find, nestled in an unassuming strip mall along NW Highway. We were greeted by enthusiastic welcomes as we entered the restaurant. We seated ourselves and a smiling face and menus arrived quickly. Our coffee cups never ran dry and I have to say that theirs is a wonderful breakfast blend. I drank way too many cups of coffee but I couldn't resist the great taste. We both ordered the same thing, a traditional breakfast of eggs, hash browns and bacon. I added biscuits and gravy because I am drawn to them like bees to flowers. The hash browns were delicious and expertly cooked. Getting that crunchy exterior without sacrificing the interior is difficult and requires a deft hand. The meal was delicious and has become my go-to breakfast spot. It's much better than the more well known names in town. Even though I was stuffed, I couldn't resist a cinnamon roll to go. My plan was to save it for the next morning's breakfast but to be honest it didn't survive the day. It's a huge roll delivered with everything delicious that you'd want. I'd recommend having it served warm instead of taking it home. The microwave is not kind to bread products. Let's support our local businesses and I encourage you to stop by very soon.

    My husband and I Yelped options for breakfast and decided to try this place yesterday. Super friendly when you walk in, lots of options on the menu and I was surprised how quickly our food arrived. Great food, great service!

    My breakfast run lately has been a disaster. I'm giving Eggceptional the MOST generous 3 stars I've ever given I think. We arrived at 10:45 a.m. on a rainy Saturday morning. We came in at the same time as four other groups and luckily found a table for two. We weren't greeted and basically ignored for about 10 minutes. I kept an eye out for the groups that entered around the same time and they didn't get any service really either. Finally got waited on and just got water and coffee to drink. Our server took our order about 10 minutes later. And then we sat. And sat. And sat. All four groups who came in at the same time were in the same boat. There was literally no food being served. There was one lady who came in after us who sat at the bar the got her food way before the rest of it but that's it. No tables were being bussed either. While we sat, at least 2 groups who came in and were waiting by the door, left. They were never greeted, or acknowledged. After 45 minutes we finally got our food, 2nd in the line of four groups and we actually came in last of the groups so we jumped in front of two groups being served and they were another 5 minutes or so before they received their food. I don't know that I've had many times where the customer relations and service were worse...or non existent. Now on to our food. If you have all morning to sit and wait for a breakfast (that to me is a pretty easy meal to make) the food is a nice surprise. My breakfast burrito was super tasty and fresh. My wife had the tacos and she said they were very good. The hash browns were meh. This would totally be somewhere I would go based on the food but I can't say I'm eager to spend an hour or more on breakfast food and poor service any time soon. If note, they only have one unisex bathroom that was nearly impossible to get into when its busy. At least that was our experience. Not ideal for a packed house drinking coffee while the service is slow. Service 1/5 Ambience/price 2/5 Food 4.5/5

    At Eggceptional before 10AM. We were told to seat ourselves. Smaller cafe. About 17 tables. Ordered the healthy bowl and huevos rancheros and side of oatmeal. $31.99 The Huevos Rancheros looks good, it's decent. Lots of hot link pieces in it. This would be better with some black beans. It has a ton of big cut potatoes as filler. The hot links has a bit of kick to it. The healthy bowl doesn't look so healthy as it's smothered with cheese. It's okay, not a lot of flavor to it. My husband took the half of the Huevos Rancheros and added it to the rest of the health bowl to amp it up some, made it better. The Cholula makes any dish better. The house coffee with their Delight creamers are alright. Ignacio was good to us today.

    Great new breakfast place on NW expressway. They are only open until 2:00 and we went at 12:30, so it wasn't crowded at all. You are told to pick your own seat then they will come take your order. The service was friendly and quick. We didn't wait long for our food, and they came to check on us often. I ordered the healthy bowl with egg whites and ground turkey. It was very delicious and more than I could eat in 1 sitting. I also got a side of pancakes, which I thought was so cute that it came out with Mickey ears! Food is delicious, portions are large, and the prices are affordable. My only complaint was that it smelled a little weird. I'm not sure if it was a dirty towel or dirty dishes in the back or what, but I did not care for a poor smell in a restaurant. I will go back again and I hope the smell is gone.

    So the final verdict, is Eggceptional cafe eggceptional? It does everything eggceptionally well ENOUGH with the eggception of misspelling the word eggceptional. For that reason, English teachers/professors may find the cafe not eggceptional and EGGVOID at all cost. For everyone else, the cafe is overall eggceptional. I would recommend to check out this eggceptional cafe. DISCLOSURE: I am not an English teacher. This is an eggceptional breakfast/lunch diner on Expressway. Eggceptional service. My coffee was refilled 3 times, which was eggceptional for me. Diner is neat and clean, but nothing of being eggceptional. The Huevos rancheros was good and the portion size was generous. It could have fed 2 people. I couldn't finish the entrée. Was it eggceptional? It was good but I wouldn't call it eggceptional. I'll give credit for it being different. It did not resemble the typical Huevos rancheros elsewhere in presentation but ingredients were the same. I guess it was eggceptional in this aspect rather than in the taste.

    This was a long drive for us, but that gave us a chance to work up our appetites for a great breakfast. The service was friendly throughout our visit to this cute cafe. I had the breakfast burrito, and it really hit the spot. I chose hash browns for my side dish, and it was the perfect complement to my meal. If you live in the area, you should check out this breakfast spot!

    Warmly greeted upon entering, I felt the genuine hospitality all visit. One waiter taking care of about 10 people deftly, he didn't even forget my to-go order at the end of my meal. I didn't sit at the coffee bar for my hurting back, but the clean black booths were comfortable with plenty of regular table seating available too. I would've liked to though because it gives a close-up view of the open kitchen, easily seen cleanliness & well-mannered hard-working cooks. Nothing to hide here. Now for the food, wow! I'm impressed. Simply yet elegant done was my 3-egg Baja omelette. I customized mine adding spinach and a bit of onion & it tasted great with meaty hunks of bacon & ample healthy-fat avocado & oozing cheese. The hash browns were perfect, although I could taste a hint of grease, they were just as clean & perfectly outside crispy as should be. If one likes them crispier, don't forget to order them well done. Customers of all types and ages frequenting & several getting to-go kept it busy which means the locals have trusted and often seen Eggceptional as its namesake, an exceptional choice for breakfast on a normal Friday morning. Being from out of town visiting & happening upon this place, I'm pleasantly surprised at the dependability and friendliness of this hidden spot. Anybody would feel welcome and walk away full. Lastly, for the overdone cinnamon roll which I was excited to take-away & then bummed as it is my very first one. I usually prefer a softer middle selection with more cinnamon on top. And the hot sauce bottles needed cleaning badly. If this cafe is going to be exceptional, they need to think about upping the ante by tapping into the local farmer's market for local jams & honey, don't settle for the cheap don't-know-how-old plain jelly packets (ugh). I don't drink coffee, but I hear how good it was! They offer lunch selections as well. Thanks y'all & come to this place happy only to leave happier after breakfast! Update: the cinnamon roll was better than I thought. On the take out box of the CR, they separated the icing and pecans and cinnamon butter spread which was nice. I said cinnamon butter. Oh boy was that yummy. Best eaten when hot and fresh. I therefore renege my original 4 star rating. This place is a 5, no questions asked.

This time we had a reservation and arrived 30 mins early when we got there we gave them our name and the waitress said it would be 45 mins. We asked if we could possibly get seated early since we were there (9:30 am) without looking at the schedule or the room she replied "No 45 mins". We turned and left. We had not been gone 10 mins and got a text saying our table was ready. I canceled the reservation. We ate at one of the hotels downtown and it was lovely. I did book this reservation a day early. Will not be booking again. Very disappointed.

That price isn't even including a tip. This place has always been pricier than the rest, but a couple years ago they used to give your to-go coffees in a mason jar so it was justified. Now the mason jars are gone, the cups are barely bigger than a claw clip, and somehow they're charging even more. This was my fourth time here and I wanted to give them another shot, but it'll have to be my last try. You can get much better coffee at a much more fair price at other places in the city. The only strength Elemental has is that it has a bit longer food menu than other cafes, but if you're paying more than $20 for a tiny coffee and a mediocre snack then you are wasting your time and money. Also, I don't expect you to yell a welcome or fall on your knees to greet me when I walk in, but the service here is miserable and always has been. The barista asked me how I was doing, to which I said good thank you, then just stared at me for a good few seconds. I guess that means go ahead and order here. A simple "what would you like today" would suffice. Most places you get used to waiting a second while the barista prepares the system, so if that's not the case, just say something. Then they hand you your to-go drink without a lid, because the $9.50 you spent doesn't cover that level of labor and you need to do it yourself. I love to support our local coffee shops here in OKC, but you'll never find me recommending Elemental. Which is a shame, because the mason jars in my cabinet at home are a good reminder of when they served unique and fairly priced coffee. I am so thoroughly disappointed that I made an account just to say this. At least the espresso is okay.
