First time trying this place and I had such a great experience! The staff was super friendly and attentive, and our servers did an awesome job. The restaurant has a cute diner feel with colorful decor and a fun, casual atmosphere. I got the lunch salad & sandwich special with the Southwest salad and turkey melt. The salad was fresh and I loved how generous they were with the avocado. The turkey melt was delicious and the bread was perfect! My mom got the Create Your Own Omelette, you pick 3 items (she chose mushrooms, onions and peppers) and a side and a bread of your choice (ex white, wheat, English muffin) . She picked grits and an English muffin, and the grits were so good! They have a huge menu with lots of variety. I'll definitely be back! read more

Nothing I like better than eggs Benedict on a Sunday. So I headed over to the Eggs Up Grill in Garner. My Holly Springs experience wasn't the best but I wanted to give them another chance. Sadly I was disappointed. The servers were amazing. Those men and women were friendly even while working hard to feed a packed house at 9:30 am. I was immediately seated at the bar ( solo dining has its perks). Coffee right away. A little light for my taste but oh well. The eggs came out on a biscuit with a very thin slice of Canadian bacon. Looked great. But the eggs weren't fully poached. Runny whites I ate what I could and let my server know. Her response was I should have sent them back. Not what I was hoping to hear. Especially when food safety is at an all time low. No need to return. read more

Sat at the counter for breakfast. If you want action this is the place to sit. You can watch the kitchen staff cook and they sure move fast. Got the apple crumble pancakes with 2 eggs and sausage links. Everything tasted good. Now to decide if I want breakfast or lunch next time I visit. read more

We're visiting and found this cute little breakfast place and it was packed! We were seated quickly and we were shocked how fast our food came. I have a dairy allergy and I was informed they use liquid butter on their grills so breakfast was out of the question, but I ordered the club sandwich and it was delicious! The food was hot and the French fries had this delicious seasoning on them. Everyone in our party loved their food. read more

Delish from top to bottom, waitress was delightful and coffee spot on! Little hard to find parking as it is in a strip mall or close to it

Had a fantastic breakfast here with my mom last Sunday. The wait was advised to be 20 minutes but we were seated after about 10 minutes. Despite the place being packed and busy, our waiter checked on us repeatedly. The vanilla latte was delicious and served piping hot. I ordered the crabocado bowl after asking the waiter which he'd recommend over the crab cake Benedict. I was not disappointed! I ate every bite it was so scrumptious. The fluffy scrambled eggs combined with the rich crab cakes and hollandaise, pickled onions and spinach to make a masterpiece of flavor. My mom ordered the strawberries and cream pancakes and equally loved her dish. We will definitely be back to try more but maybe during a weekday to avoid the crowd. read more

Nestled in the Garner Towne Square shopping plaza near Lidl and Kid2Kid. The inside is open, clean, with plenty of seating. My server Malik was attentive and friendly. I had the cinnamon smile iced and it was good but very sweet. My shrimp and grits were tasty, the toast being my favorite part of the meal. Overall it was an average breakfast to me. Price point was reasonable. Great place to meet up with and enjoy a bite with people - real local feel. read more

Really great hash, crispy in the right places but not burnt or dry. GET THE DONUTS (you won't regret it), fresh & made to order! The grits were very smooth & potatoes had a great taste without being too salty or greasy! Diner style service, not great but not horrible. House coffee is on the weaker side if you like strong brew. read more

Had a quick stopover in the Raleigh area on the way home from the coast and had the best breakfast! Natalie was my waitress and she was so efficient, nice and funny! She never let my coffee get cold which is important to me. The french toast was so good and cooked perfectly. I will definitely eat here again if I get the chance. Could i be so lucky to get the same waitress? read more

Natalie is the most disrespectful waitress in the building. I was waiting for the bar seat and she walked past me and asked someone else if they were waiting. When I told her I was waiting before them she said she wasn't talking to me about that and then proceeded to share her dissatisfication about my response to others in front of my face with another waitress. When I said something about her mouthing off some little waiter guy who wasn't in the conversation proceeded to defend her disrespect. I'm like dude where you come from and how you know. He wasn't even standing there during the initial interaction. I come to the garner location often and enjoy the food and service of others,but this is my third encounter with her rudeness. She needs to do better. Especially expressing her emotions in front of customers and her staff. read more

The best eggs Benedict I've ever had--perfectly cooked and bursting with flavor. The coffee is pretty good as well, making for a satisfying breakfast. Prices are very reasonable, and the food is prepared quickly without compromising on quality. This is a great spot for families of all ages and sizes. Highly recommend for a delicious and efficient dining experience. read more

We arrived at 10:34 with a party of eight. As of 11:24, we still had not been seated--nearly 50 minutes of waiting. During that time, we watched staff seat a party of seven before ours, using the excuse that they "didn't have the table space" for our group. That was hard to believe given what we directly observed. To make matters worse, we brought three children, who became increasingly impatient--especially once the wait reached around the 45-minute mark. The entire experience felt poorly managed and disrespectful to both guests and families. At minimum, we expected honest communication about timing and seating order. Instead, we were left waiting with no clear accountability. We will not be returning. Negative one star rating ! read more

Always great food and great service! The croissant donuts are our favorite. Getting on the waitlist on Toast is helpful to reduce the wait.

I went there 2 months ago right after me moved for Ohio to NC. Needed something tasty, like a pick me up of sorts. Went to the Garner location. I had the chorizo scrambler. It was the perfect combination of tasty and spicey. The portion is a little on the big size, but clearly it was sooo good, I finished it. The service was good read more

Fantastic place for efficient service and fabulous breakfast food or lunch sandwiches!!! Friends customer service too boot!

This place is not good, they would not honor our coupon for $8 off saying that the book we got it from did not contact them about it. Still i am a paying customer and if i have a coupon with the location address on the back they can do the right thing and honor the coupon but instead they lost a customer over trying to save 8 dollars. read more

Food was great. Service was superb I would definitely go back. I went with 4 others on a busy Saturday morning.

This breakfast diner is fine. The service is good and the food is pleasant but it's not anything special. I've been there twice now and I don't think I'd go back. I prefer Angie's diner as the atmosphere and food is better there in my opinion. read more

Visiting NC this weekend, this restaurant was recommended to me by one of my friends. I walked in and was immediately greeted and seated; no wait times. The décor and ambiance of the restaurant reminded me of a 'mom and pop' diner. They do have a good selection of different types of food. Im not a big chicken/steak eater so I was glad that they had turkey options. I ordered and received my food about 25 minutes after ordering although the restaurant didn't seem busy based on how many patrons were in the restaurant. Our server didnt check on us as frequently as I feel she should have, I had to wait longer than expected for drinks/refills. Overall the food was good, and I would visit again, I would just say the service would need to be a bit better than what it was. read more

My wife will be totally jelly she didnt get to eat at this place. My brother and I were driving through NC and stopped to visit our youngest brother. We had breakfast together here and OMG it was great. I got a some Pancakes w/ Custard filling/strawberries and a great Mocha. The waffles were perfect and the mocha was just right. The menu has sooooo many options, I can't wait till we come back again to try some more things here. read more

Cute restaurant with pretty good food, I would say it's similar to another broken egg or first watch. I had the crab-ocado scrambler with potatoes, both were full of flavor! Service was great too, our waitress was nice read more

Eggs Up Grill is a decent place to stop for a bite. A great experience so far as the food and service. The seating arrangement is a bit cumbersome as it feels you're in the flow of traffic. I prefer more sections for a little privacy. read more

My husband wanted to give this place a try and I will say it was okay. It was really crowded as most breakfast places tend to be mid morning, then take into consideration that its labor day weekend. There was a lot of confusion at the counter. You have people trying to pick up to-go orders, those checking in for a table, and those waiting to be seated. ALL of this happening in a very small space, and it appeared there was just ONE guy managing all of that singlehandedly. After we, the customers asked each other what was happening, we the customers figured out how to organize ourselves accordingly. We were seated faster than the time they quoted which was nice! In terms of ambiance I would say it gives diner vibes. Service was just okay. Not one request to refill coffee or drinks but the server was really busy so we will give her a pass. She was very nice! I had a crabcake benedict and the eggs could have been cooked lighter and I would have enjoyed more hollandaise but zero complaint on flavor. My husband had a crabcake omelette with potatoes and he enjoyed it a lot also! What I enjoyed most is the food was seasoned well and not over salted. The portions are just enough so if you are a big eater you might be disappointed or look to order more robust entrees. I saw a few bigger plate items nearby. I would give this place another visit and maybe increase the stars if it is more organized next time and the server was just a little more attentive. Maybe all of this is just growing pains from being a new restaurant! read more

I had a great experience at this breakfast spot! The food was delicious and everything came out hot. The portions were just right. Our server (Natalie) was super friendly and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed. I'll definitely be coming back! read more

Eggs Up Grill reminded me a lot of Florida's First Watch, but with some notable differences. While First Watch might have a slight edge in terms of quality and unique menu options, Eggs Up Grill offers much larger portions at a lower price, making it a fantastic value for breakfast or brunch. The restaurant itself was clean and inviting, and the atmosphere felt warm and casual--perfect for a relaxed morning meal. Our server was very kind and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed. The food itself was impressive for the price point. Every dish we tried was flavorful, fresh, and satisfying. If you're looking for a breakfast spot where you can get a lot of food without spending a fortune--and still enjoy good quality--this is the place. I'd definitely go back to Eggs Up Grill to enjoy another hearty and affordable meal. It's not quite First Watch, but it stands strong as a great option for anyone craving a delicious breakfast. read more

The food is greasy. Turkey bacon tasted like it was cooked in pork grease. I waited a long time it visit this place. Disappointed.

This was my first time at Eggs up Grill. The restaurant is located in a shopping plaza and is easy to find. Waitress had great attitude and even a manager walked by to check on us. Don't know if I just came in on a bad cooking day but I didn't like the food. I ordered a waffle, blueberry muffin, fruit and an egg. This was my first time trying this place so I decided to play it safe. Honestly I felt like I was eating continental breakfast from a hotel. The only thing I liked was the blue berry muffins. I wish I had taken a picture of the menu. I saw a cheese burger that looked really good be delivered to the table beside me. I will come back one more time to give it another shot...for that cheeseburger at least. read more

Finally got to checkout Eggs Up Grill in Garner today. I enjoyed it! The food was fresh and tasty. I had a veggie omelet, creamy grits and a biscuit sliced in half and toasted.

My sister and I had breakfast there, first time, and I can't say enough good about it. It was on a Saturday morning, there was a 10-minute wait to be seated, and then we were taken care of by a fantastic server! We both had the Crab-ocado Scrambler, and were so pleased we did. The two crab cakes on top were fantastic, and the grits were the best I've ever had in a restaurant. I will be there this coming Friday, with all three of my sisters, and am looking forward. read more

The grits were very good and creamy. The scrambled eggs with cheese were good also. The home fries were nothing to write home about (pun intended). Biscuits were good as was the meat (according to my guest). Our server was okay..very nonchalant and not soy of people skills. The ambiance is bright and cheery! read more

Quantity over quality. Again, you get what they give you. Simple order, 2 eggs over easy, crisp bacon and toast. Bacon was barely cooked and toast was still plain bread. Customer service is gone. read more

Super excited when this new business opened up. Tried to visit it several times but could never coordinate my schedule to get in there. Finally found a day when I could get in and we had about a 20 min wait which wasn't bad. I decided to walk around stores next door to pass the time. I was shocked when I first walked in because the location is way smaller than expected. The diner is very clean and bright and the staff had smiling faces. Our order was taken accurately and it didn't take long to come out. Everything was cooked as requested. I've actually been back twice since my first visit. read more

Stopped in for brunch last Saturday. Love the Founder's Hash Benedict but tried the Coastal Crab Benedict. It was delicious and sp worth trying!... But I'm such a lover of the hash that I'll probably get that again next time. Great service. A little bit of a wait, but worth it. read more

This was mine and my partners first time coming here. The atmosphere was very welcoming. The French toast was TO DIE FOR! And I had ordered a hot cocoa and a coffee and it exceeded all expectations I had previously. Our servers Mia, who was in her last day of training, and Leah were fantastic! They were very attentive and had great personality which made the experience that much more enjoyable even with as busy as it was. If you arrive and there's a wait time it's definitely well worth it. We will definitely come here again. read more

Our server Val was great and informative I have no complaints about her. This seems to have been a mess up kitchen wise as I found you couldn't choose what veggies to and not to include I chose no veggies as onions and tomatoes don't agree with me. I was so disappointed having to go through and pick out tomatoes. The restaurant was clean and although there was a wait it was not very long. The mimosas were tasty I had the summer peach flavor. It was a great last minute brunch. read more

Favorite breakfast/brunch spot hands down! First off ...The sausage links are like nothing I've ever had..I mean amazing! I had a picky eater with me and he loved the red white and bacon pancakes! We also tried the Philly cheese steak omelet , coastal crab Benedict, and I promise it's so good!!! The family is still talking about it and we can't wait to go back! *side note.... we had a long wait because it was mother day ... but I swear it was SO worth it.... and things moved quickly after that. Staff was also awesome and friendly! Would give 6 stars if I could! read more
