    The Chic Sandwich
    Susan Z.

    I love the Chic sandwich here! It's a Taiwanese style fried chicken sandwich and I'm all for it! The flavoring is just like popcorn chicken, and having it in a sandwich form is quite unique! Ingredients are fresh and the sandwich comes out hot. Love their drinks as well -- their hojicha is yum!

    My friend and I came here for brunch on a Saturday, and it wasn't too busy even though it was prime brunch hour! The food came out really fast! I had the eggy and the waffle fries, and it was a really good combo! The egg paste thingie that comes with the eggy is definitely more than the slices of bread it came with, so I used the waffle fries as a base, and it was a really good combo! Highly recommend! For drinks, I got the matcha coffee latte, which was really good and strong! My friend had the iced hojicha, which did taste a bit watery when I tried a sip. 5 stars because my friend and I were in there for 3 hours catching up, and no one made us leave hahaha.

    I have been wanting to try this spot for a while. Finally had time to grab one. I ordered the chicken egg sando and tots. The sandwich was lacking a bit in flavor but was overall good and crispy, but the bun was very dense and felt like it was old bread. Was a bit disappointed because the sando was $13 The tater tots was really good very fresh and crispy. Had a good spicy aïoli. When I ordered I did it though the kiosk, and didn't really have to talk to anyone. Food came out quick. Vibe of a coffee shop very clean.

    Was working at the Northside branch library and got a little hungry so I mobile ordered a sandwich from Egghead. I was excited to try the 'Scramble' sandwich. It was surprisingly tasty, not sure if it was because I was starving after depleting my energy from work, or if it was truly a mean sandwich, but one thing for sure is that it was pretty tasty! It is as simple as can be; scrambled eggs, cheese, mayo, and caramelized onions. Actually, it was the CARAMELIZED ONIONS that made the sandwich stand out from other breakfast sandwiches. It paired perfectly with the mayo and and fluffy eggs. Plus, the brioche bun was was really TASTY! It was light, fluffy, but also had a great chew! It seemed like this place had more mobile orders than in-person diners. The inside of the restaurant was clean, almost giving an "untouched" vibe. Right as you walk into the restaurant, you can order at the register, but if you mobile ordered, you need to walk a little further to the pick up area. They keep the orders behind the counter so you need to let them know of the name and order to pick your food up.

    Really good breakfast sandwiches! Got the chic and ultimate sando. The chic has a nice crispy crunch and juicy chicken on the inside. Ultimate Sando with added sausage was great as well. With both I was full for the day. Recommend trying!

    Plenty parking available with extra parking spots in the garage. First time trying this place and easy to place order with kiosk. Have both Indoor and Outdoor seating. Interior looks cool. Pretty heavy lunch for sure, may be worth to have this for brunch.

    I think this place is over hyped. I was disappointed. I rate it 2.5 stars overall. Seems like to-go orders such as Uber eats and door dash take priority. There was not even a long line when I ordered. I ordered the chicken sandwich, waffle fries and strawberry matcha. I waited a long time for my food. Roughly around 30 minutes I had to wait an additional 15-20 minutes for my matcha. It did not come out with my order. I saw many drink offers pilled up waiting to be picked up. By the time I sat down to eat my food it has been an hour since I ordered. The bun of my sandwich was burned. The chicken was okay. Reminded me of popcorn chicken. The scrambled eggs were a little runny. Too wet for my liking. I think the sandwich would be better without the eggs. Overall it was just meh. The waffle fries were good. The standout of the meal. The strawberry matcha tasted gritty. Overpriced for the quality of the drink. The tables were sticky and dirty. I really wanted to like this place.

    I wasn't sure about this spot. Everything looks very pretty in pictures, but the ratings were mixed. After trying Egghead, I kinda get it. The sandwich was decent, but it wasn't even warm enough to melt the cheese they put on it, and it cost A LOT for how much food you get. The strawberry matcha was a better value, though. The restaurant itself is kinda strange. You basically don't see the staff. They are hidden off somewhere in a room in the back, prepping orders. They occasionally pop out to call out an order. It kinda makes for a strange dining experience. I'm not really sure I'd go back. I don't think the experience and quality quite justifies the price.

    Ultimate Sando
    Siyi T.

    First time visiting this Egghead branch. It was located in the Rivermark plaza. We ordered the Ultimate Sando and Scramble Sandwich to go for a picnic. Both came with 3 scrambled eggs! The bread was soft on the inside and crispy on the outside. The Ultimate Sando also came with sausage and a generous portion of avocado slices. The sauce was creamy and a little spicy. The Scrambled Sandwich was similar to Ultimate Sando except that there was no sausage or avocado. I'd highly recommend the Scramble Sandwich if you like eggs! The restaurant was small with a few seats indoor. Ordering was self serve on the kiosk. There were a few more seats outside and plenty of parking in the plaza.

    Stopped by Egghead Sando Cafe for a Saturday morning breakfast and was pleasantly surprised! left full and happy :). As a vegetarian, I was a little bummed that there was only one meatless option (the Scramble) but luckily, it delivered. The eggs were perfectly cooked and paired well with the slightly sweet brioche bun. Super satisfying. The tater tots were amazing!! Crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, salty, they were seriously addictive. I also tried the rose latte, which was paired well with the food, not too sweet. Ordering is done through a kiosk, so there's not much interaction with staff. Indoor seating is spacious and comfy, but outdoor tables are limited. I went right at opening on a Saturday and had no problem parking, though the lot is pretty small. Prices are reasonable, portions are generous, and overall it's a solid breakfast spot

    Indoor decor

    In the Rivermark area of Santa Clara there aren't many choices for breakfast, let alone breakfast sandwiches so Egghead Sando Cafe is worth the visit. The store is clean, vibrant and offers indoor and outdoor seating, bathroom for customers, self serve water, and self serve ordering and pick up window. I ordered the "Side Chic" sandwich: grilled chicken (a little too heavy on the season salt for me, but I'm sure others would welcome it), egg over medium, bacon, arugula, on brioche bun. It was a huge sandwich! You'll definitely need a knife to enjoy half at time. I wish plates were offered for dine-in. The tater tots seem pricey on the menu, but you get a lot! Enough for 2-3 people. The tots were perfectly hot and crispy. There's a great selection of drinks so make sure to try one with your sando. It'll totally up your experience!

    Summer C.

    What I like about Egghead sandos are that their serving is is that their serving size is great. For every sando their fried chicken is HUGE! Plus, it's still got the perfect crunch and juiciness inside. Yesyes. Usually I'm not a really big matcha fan, but this one changed the game. Loved the tart strawberry jam that combine well with the matcha taste. I want to add that there wasn't a lot of seating available, so I had to sit outside. The thing is, the seats and tables outside were dirty. If you go and sit outside, use wipes to wipe down all surfaces. Peace!

    I've tried Egghead at the old Cupertino location before it closed down and thought it was quite good and wanted to try this location. I got The Scramble and it was solid. Eggs were fluffy and it also had cheese, grilled onions, chives, and spicy bun. I like how these are on brioche buns! Took a little while for food to come out. Handful of tables inside and outside.

Perfect for warm California days with nearby palm trees and plenty of outdoor seating. My normal go-to is a sparkling iced americano (don't know it until you try it). It's not a terribly uncommon drink but many places won't make it for me. Even though it's not on the menu, the baristas always make it without a fuss and service is usually quick. The espresso is solid. Today I tried the seasonal Melo Belo. It's an iced banana latte with a coconut cream on top. The banana flavor is subtle and not too sweet. That's my preference when I have coffee, but I think most would actually benefit from asking for extra banana syrup. The coconut foam is also subtly sweet, and actually has a slight saltiness that helps the drink feel well-balanced. This drink was definitely a treat. They also have a great selection of pastries that range from standard croissants to less common flavors, like mango and ube. They do tend to sell out throughout the day, so if you want the best selection, come early.

Occasionally burnt espresso but I love them too much to mind. I am a matcha snob to say the LEAST. Hands down best coffee shop matcha in the Bay Area. The classic iced matcha latte with honey is grassy and earthy and creamy and a little sweet. The iced banana pudding matcha latte had people lined up around the corner for months when it came out. It is deliciously worth the wait. Best banana cold foam in my opinion because it's made with actual bananas instead of flavoring so it's much more mellow. The double matcha they had for awhile is also awesome. Banana cold foam also goes great on an espresso latte. Now they let you add whichever cold foam you like to whatever drink which is great. Basically you can't go wrong. They are always changing up the menu for the new season and have lots of unique drinks on their menu. Not much seating inside at this location. The winchester Blvd one has more if that's what you're looking for. Their pastries are also all yummy and they sell their matcha powder for $60 for 100g which is a GREAT price for a great matcha.
