    Just came here on a whim because I had a busy day running errands about a month ago and stopped in for brunch because I was hungry. The immediate impression was really nice atmosphere, the interior is really clean but the big windows and wooden furniture make it feel sleek modern but comfy. They have menus at the front register area where you can order with a worker or a self service kiosk if you'd prefer that too. Me and my mom both loved their sandwiches and we've gone back a couple of times since and it's been good every time. If anyone is an egg lover this is definitely the place for you. If you order a side do be prepared because they give you a lot of food compared to the skimpy sides at a lot of other places you get nowadays! There's some outside seating if you'd like and 85c Cafe in the shopping center we got some pastries from after so it's situated in a good spot!

    Ultimate Sando and Hawaiian Morning

    We ordered some breakfast sandwiches to go. We ordered the Ultimate sando and the Hawaiian morning and both were delicious. I did enjoy the Hawaiian the best because they used a thick slice of spam and eggs were cooked perfectly. Overall, this a great option if you're craving some breakfast sandwiches.

    Egghead Sando Cafe is located in the same plaza as CVS and Lucky's, which makes it super convenient and close to home. I've only ordered takeout from here since I prefer bringing it home to enjoy. We ordered three sandwiches, two fries, and two drinks. Each item came neatly packed in its own paper takeout box, which made everything easy and mess-free to eat. At first glance, the sandwiches looked huge because of the oversized buns, but I appreciated that they balanced it out with just as generous a portion of fillings. The fries were good, both the criss-cut fries and the tater tots stayed crispy even after the drive home. The two drinks looked beautiful, but they were slightly watered down, and the strawberries weren't as sweet or ripe as I had hoped.

    Ultimate Sando Waffle Fries Tater Tots Pineapple Cucumber Green Tea Pink dream

    I was looking for a good breakfast sandwich spot and came across this place while browsing Yelp. The reviews looked solid, so we decided to give it a try. I ordered the Ultimate Sando with an extra sausage patty, bacon , waffle fries, and the pineapple cucumber tea. Honestly, it was just okay definitely not worth the price in my opinion. My girlfriend ordered the Ultimate Sando with just sausage and bacon since she's picky, and she agreed the sandwiches were pretty average. The fries and tots were good, and the drinks were definitely a highlight. Overall, we ended up spending close to $80, so just a heads up that this place is on the pricey side. Service was good we ordered through a kiosk, and the staff was friendly. The space is clean and laid back, but a bit small, so if it's busy you may end up eating outside. Overall, it was worth trying once, but I probably wouldn't come back.

    Randomly decided to stop by the egghead Sando Café. Plenty of parking in a giant parking lot so we chose the closest one and stepped in. Order first and you'll be given a number where food will be delivered to your table. We got quite a few things to share and surpringly had left overs to take home. Their salad was the best in my opinion especially with a patty added. Their coffees are quite strong and tasty. The café itself is very nicely decorated and Most importantly their restroom was very clean.

    Prepare to wait about 30 mins. And the drinks??? We wouldn't get again. Got the Vietnamese coffee which was just condense milk.. strawberry matcha and honey matcha, both honestly really bad. I got the eggy which was the potatoes & pouched egg, REALLY good, Didn't think I'd like it but very good and light. My bf got a sandwich with scrambled eggs and bacon, very big sandwich but flavorful! Staff was not that welcoming but answered questions we had.

    The Chic Sandwich
    Andrew Y.

    Definitely one of my favorite places to eat. Service is fast and everyone there is nice. I always get The Chic. It's a fried chicken sandwich with an egg, and the chicken is always huge. It's bigger than the bun, so I get to take a few bites of just the chicken before I eat the sandwich as a whole. The chicken has a flavor similar to Taiwanese fried chicken, and works amazingly with the egg. This is all also under $15 which is pretty good for the South Bay. For their drinks, I've tried their Kyandi and strawberry hojicha. Neither of them were anything that blew me away. They were average, not amazing, so that brings the score down a little. Overall, I'd rate this place a 8.5/10. The chicken sandwich is phenomenal, and at a great price. Maybe the other drinks are better, but the drinks are just ok which brings down the score but this is definitely a place I'll frequent

    Sorry, this update is long overdue. Multiple visits to Egghead Sando Cafe, and every time everything has been fabulous! Food and drinks are all high quality, fresh, and delicious. That Eggy is amazing! I love all of their chicken sandwiches, and of course the tater tots are crispy on the outside and fluffy inside. Yum, making me drool just thinking about everything. One note, don't go afterwork for dinner-they will be closed. Think breakfast, brunch, and lunch. Once you order, you'll get text updates letting you know where you are in the queue.

    The B.E.C. Sandwich
    Sandra N.

    I've been an Egghead girly since their opening years ago. I haven't been back in so long because we don't live very close to Cupertino. Today we decided to give it another shot since we happened to be in the area. The interior is really nice compared to their older Cupertino building. The tables are spaced out well with plenty of natural lighting. The ambiance is quiet, reminiscent of a chill coffee shop. Theres a kiosk to place your order or you could likely order at the cashier as well. The B.E.C. Sandwich - This is usually my go-to order but this time it could only be described as SALTY. The taste is quite bacon forward since the thick cuts are the most prominent flavor. The bacon itself is quite salty and was overcooked in my opinion, making it tough to chew. The bread was soft but on the drier crustier side. The cheese wasn't even melted. Each bread slice was heavily saturated in ketchup and mayonnaise making it hard to enjoy the contents within the sandwich. Its safe to say, this sandwich was lackluster in both taste and texture. Tater tots - these were your standard freezer tater tots with nothing really standing out about them. The quantity was massive which I appreciated for the price. Restroom is code protected. There is no water fountain or water dispenser so that could help improve this location. Our experience was quite disappointing because it seems like the quality has gone down significantly. The chefs don't seem to take the tender love and care they used to when crafting their dishes.

    Stopped by here after a hike for some late breakfast/early lunch. The people who work here seemed nice. Our egg sandwiches were ready in about 10 minutes and were served nice and warm. The place is super cute, decorated nicely. Unfortunately, it was really in need of a cleaning- lots of crumbs and various detritus on the floors and most tables really needed a wipe down. The sandwiches were alright; I liked the way the eggs were cooked and the bread was soft. My husband felt like they were an upscale egg McMuffin, which is not a bad thing, but they were a lot more expensive than fast food. Overall not great, but not terrible. Might be much tastier if we weren't vegetarians as well- bet they are better with breakfast meat.

    The Chic
    Tien N.

    The chicken was the best thing at the Egghead Sando sandwich restaurant. The piece of chicken was way bigger than the bun and really juicy. The food wasn't spicy. It's guaranteed to fill you up. But other dishes were okay. The service was quick, but the inside had limited seating space. There are plenty of parkings around.

    eggy
    Kiley J.

    iced coffee was decent, their eggy was low-key salty. Their eggy is like a dip of mashed potatoes with rare-medium egg ontop. The bread was very crispy though- which is a plus!

    Kelli K.

    Tried the Eggy! Eggy Poached Egg On Top of Smooth Potato Pure, With Bacon & Chives, Serve With 4 Slices of Toasted Baguette. This was tastier than I thought it was going to be! Loved the egg and potato puree combination! The baquette was perfectly crispy and paired well with the dip. I wish it came with more bread but it was delicious! I would try this again!

I was expecting it to be super salty, heavy, and drenched in sauce, but it was actually really balanced and refreshing. The pork was flavorful without being overpowering, and I could distinctly taste the water chestnuts and veggies mixed in, which gave it a nice texture and freshness. It felt comforting without making me feel weighed down. The cold cut combo bahn mi here is seriously bomb. I also really liked the bread ratio--the baguette was the perfect size and didn't overpower the fillings. Some places think bigger bread is better, but it ends up taking away from the inside and makes the sandwich hard to bite into. Here, everything felt balanced, so you actually get the perfect mix of bread, meats, pickled veggies, and sauce in every bite. The cured meats were flavorful without being hella salty too, which made the whole sandwich even better. Def need to come back to try some of their desserts near the middle of the line's counter and in that fridge near the register! _______________________________________________________ --- S E R V I C E --- Service was great too. They handled the rush really well, and the staff still stayed warm and attentive even with how busy it was. When I got to the register, there were other customers trying to ask for extra help after getting their orders--and anyone who grew up around asian "aunties" and "uncles" knows how eager they can get. Instead of brushing me aside to quickly help them first, the cashier politely gestured that they'd assist them after finishing with me. It was a small moment, but I appreciated how respectful and composed they were while juggling everything. _______________________________________________________ --- A M B I A N C E -- To-go vibes for sure! It's a small shop big enough for the line (before it can go out the door), cold drinks and desserts in the fridges, small snacks and plates on your way to the register, and the pick-up window on the outside. Makes sense to just pick up your food and enjoy it in your car or at home because of how busy it can get. Heads up--they definitely have evenings where they clean-up and lock the door minutes for closing. Do make time to come before then to secure food!
