At the Monkey Junction location, they used bottled salsa on the avocado toast. That was a surprise, after having it for the first time, in Leland. I prefer the fresh! Our server let me know they make it "in house". I have to say, the chair are so uncomfortable. I only want to sit in a booth. read more

Eggs Up Grill - Avocado toast has FRESH salsa, in Leland, NC! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Leland, North Carolina

7/4/26: Eggs Up Grill was a great brunch stop during our time in Leland. We visited on the morning of July 4th, and the restaurant was packed. There was about a 15-minute wait, which wasn't bad considering how busy weekend mornings seem to be here. We ordered the Hash Benedict, Classic Benny, Croissant Style Donuts, and the Chimi Steak Scrambler with cheesy scrambled eggs, grilled marinated skirt steak, avocado, tomatoes, toast, and home fries. Every dish was well prepared and exactly what we were hoping for. The benedicts had perfectly cooked poached eggs with rich hollandaise sauce, the Chimi Steak Scrambler was hearty and flavorful, and the croissant-style donuts were a fun, sweet treat to share at the table. Because the restaurant was so busy, the food didn't come out immediately, but the wait was completely reasonable and never felt excessive. The staff did a great job keeping everyone moving, and our server was exceptional. She was friendly, attentive, and checked in on us throughout the meal despite having a full section. Overall, I'd give Eggs Up Grill 4/5 stars. The combination of great food, outstanding service, and a welcoming atmosphere made for an excellent brunch. I'd definitely come back the next time I'm in Leland and would recommend it to anyone looking for a dependable breakfast or brunch spot. read more

We went while visiting Leland in October (out of season) at 10 AM on a Saturday. We didn't have any wait but the crowd was solid and consistent with very few open tables. I have heard in summer and early fall there can be a 30-60 minute wait. Nothing fancy about the restaurant but it is cute with little touches like funny tshirts and even an eggs cracked counter on the wall. Our waitress was friendly although they did seem understaffed as it took awhile for our orders to be taken and then again for the food to be served. Prices are reasonable for a breakfast spot. The food was pretty good with lots of interesting choices. We tried the Cro-nuts which are a combination of croissants and donuts. We had 2 variations, one plain and one seasonal which had a Creme filling, caramel, and cinnamon toast on top. Favorites varied within our table. For breakfast I had their breakfast quesadilla and home fries. The home fries were well seasoned and perfectly cooked where They weren't too crispy. The quesadilla had a little spice from the chorizo and was very good. Be sure to get some lime creama on the side to dip in. We would definitely try this place again. read more

For a place with "eggs" in the name, they sure do overcook my eggs consistently. Went in today to get takeout and my over medium eggs were very hard, and again no condiments. When I went to return it they tossed the entire dish instead of just recooking some eggs. So now I am waiting an unnecessary amount of time just because my eggs were wrong and I needed the salsa and sour cream that come with the bowl. I just wish they would do better because I do really like the food here when it's right. Update: after going back and waiting the eggs came out over hard again. I had them remake them a third time and one egg was right. At that point I just accepted it and went home. I think the cooks need more training because this is the most basic skill they need to have working at a breakfast restaurant. They gave me a 5 dollar coupon but I will not be back after this. It was too much of a hassle. In my picture are the second set of eggs on the left and the third remake on the right. Unacceptable! read more

Great food and service here for the week going back for breakfast tomorrow. Love the service as well

We moved to Leland 2 years ago and Eggs Up Grill has been our #1 breakfast place. My husband's favorite is the Founders Hash & Eggs, he has never been disappointed. It is always cooked to perfection and delicious. Yesterday we volunteered with a group of neighbors for the Tri Span 5K/10K and they suggested breakfast at Eggs Up Grill. There were 11 of us and Haley was our server. The size of the group didn't overwhelm her. She did an amazing job; took our orders with a smile and paid attention to everyone! She checked in with us and the beverages were refilled as needed. Haley was amazing. All your servers are great. They are always friendly, never rattled by a full restaurant, and it is impressive how they help one another. Kudos to the kitchen too. read more

The was my first visit to the Eggs Up Grill in Leland. Nice and bright interior with a section for outside seating. Our waitress Lindsey was very nice. I decided to try the Crème Brûlée French Toast. She asked if I wanted it with the drizzle and powdered sugar. Another waitress later brought our food. We were talking and I did not think much about my food. I did take a picture and started eating. It was very delicious. When I got to the middle of the toast it was soggy. I like my bacon crispy, but mine was a bit shriveled. After our meal, we were sitting there talking. I had a view of the counter and food window. I saw a waitress drizzling something on a dish and add powdered sugar. It hit me my dish was supposed to have those things on it too. The dish she carried to another table looked nothing like mine. I am to blame for being distracted and not realizing my dish was incomplete. Looking at the picture I took, the dish is very disappointing. I am including the picture from their website. That is what the other customers looked like. read more

This was our second visit, after experiencing cold tastless food on our first visit, we deciddeed not to come back again. But as time passed and we were hungry for a simple eggs, grits and bacon breakfast, we gave it a second try. My Omlet barerely had any cheese and the inside of it was watery slime, with cold mushrooms and the egg had no flavor. My grits were like soup with no texture and no flavor. My wife had two eggs over easy that were watery, not done well enough and her bacon was so salty she could not eat it. I complained to the waitress and all she said was "I'm so sorry." This time we are determined to never return. read more

Four of us had brunch here the other day. It was my first time eating at Eggs Up Grill (along with one friend). The place is one large open room, but very noisy due to the coffee machines. The menu had lots of great choices, but I ended up ordering the Chorizo Scrambler ($11.99). It was a very nice portion of eggs, chorizo sausage, diced tomatoes, some nice thick slices of avocado, all topped with a crema. I had the home fries and whole wheat toast. I could have skipped the toast - too much food for me. Service was a little on the slow side due to the place being filled with hungry diners. In fact, by the time we left, there were several people waiting at the door for tables. Our server was very friendly. I'll definitely go back. read more

I came by on a Saturday morning even though they were busy they were able to seat me and my friends very quickly. Our server was Destiny and she was very attentive. I ordered the Patty Melt which was delicious and my friends got eggs and grits dishes and they were very happy. The restaurant is clean and it seemed that the employees had a great attitude and enjoyed working there. Overall great experience. read more

Couldn't help seeing 80% of patrons waiting g for food. Waitresses are standing around and the kitchen process looks to be in caos . More take out orders being delivered than serving seated guests. This is a Tuesday. Awful. Never had an experience like this. Pathetic. Walked out after 40 minutes waiting read more

We came here after being treated rudely and waiting almost an hour for a table at "The Farmhouse" after being told 20-25 min with no follow up or acknowledgement we were still waiting. We left there and arrived at Eggs Up Grill where they were PACKED. We expected to wait at least the min of 20 min like the sweet, welcoming hostess told us. She was hustling and we were seated within 15 min of walking in the door! This is a highly recommended place for breakfast/brunch with a friendly, hard working staff and delicious food. FIVE STARS read more

Bad service, bad food, bad environment.... Something told me it was going to be another "challenging" morning at the Eggs Up Grill the moment we sat down and realized how COLD it was inside. We kept our coats on as did most of the customers. When we asked the hostess if they could turn the heat up, we were told "NO. It's cold in here because it's cold outside". The seats were COLD, the table was COLD, the even the menus were COLD. So sitting in the cold we waited and waited for a server to visit our table. The waitresses were all crowed together behind the counter busily chatting and texting on their phones with their backs to us. Eventually a waitress stopped by so we order coffee before ordering our meals. She dropped our coffee off and left. Meanwhile, our table didn't have enough sugar or creamer for the coffee and by the time the waitress brought some over, our coffees were COLD. It took a while for our waitress to return and take our breakfast orders, but shortly after she did, my guest saw my breakfast being placed under a heat lamp. He said it sat there for close to 15 minutes until his big pancake breakfast was ready and watched as the waitress bringing both plates over. So while his breakfast was steaming hot, my crab eggs benedict was hammered/cooked all the way through, the crab meat was BROWN and had a metalic aftertaste, the home fries were greasy, flavorless and quickly dropped to room temerature. My guests pancakes were hot, but he later told me were FLAVORLESS and HEAVY. I had to ask another waitress to get our waitress so I could show her that my eggs were hard while my potatoes quickly turned as cold as the table. The waitress took my plate and ordered another crab benedict breakfast, BUT IT NEVER CAME! My guest finished his big breakfast and pushed his plate aside. So now we were both left waiting and waiting with cold coffee until we ran out of time. I had to ask another waitress to get our waitress again to cancel my breakfast. The manager came over and apologized. She said I wouldn't have to pay for my breakfast. WELL, I NEVER ATE ANYTHING!!! This was our 3rd and probably last visit to the Eggs Up Grill. Each time was a miserable combination of bad service, bad food, and now a bad environment. The cooks and servers need re-trained and require a manager's oversight. I'm still getting over the fact that I had to drive myself and my guest to the neighboring McDonalds for a hot, tasty breakfast. Leland deserve better. read more

My advice is to eat before you go to Eggs Up Grill in Leland. Service is extremely slow - it could be a half an hour once the waitress takes your order before it arrives cold. Won't be going back! read more

Food was really good. The grit's needed some and not salt on table . Reasonable prices. The waitress was good. Home potatoes were ok. There was a lot of food... read more

Order ready for pickup at 11:21 a.m.. Didn't receive our food until 12:01 p.m, 40 minutes after it was deemed ready.. They definitely need to hire cooks or bussers because the lady at the front was also the only one cleaning tables, so there was a crowd of people waiting for tables.. Additionally, they forgot the coffee for our order so we didn't even receive everything we ordered. To top it off, the hot coffees to go that they were making as I watched were placed into styrofoam cups which is known to be carcinogenic. Styrofoam leaches styrene when heated which is pretty bad neurologically and can cause cancer. read more

Since when the hell does a restaurant won't give your change back,I guess they think their entitled to keep your change,it's not the bills ,but coins,my waitress acted like I was doing a disservice asking for my coins ,never going there again, overpriced for what it is read more

Food is great. It's long wait time, very busy, but worth the wait. Service is friendly but slow. I enjoy going here for breakfast.

I take back everything I said good about this place. The food was awful. Not cooked the way it should have been the pancakes were the worse I ever had the beacon was cold over cooked and asked for a new order the same thing came out as the first order.We had a fly that must of been in the place since opened no fly should be around in December and the prices omg are you kidding me never again and oh I forgot the utensils were dirty even the waitress said omg when she looked at them never again. This was the second and last time. Also the bathroom was dirty find another place to spend your hard earned money. read more

Food was ok. Server disappeared after delivering coffee. Even the outside could use a bit of sprucing up.

We went to this new location on Thursday, July 25, just four days after it open. The restaurant was full but we only had to wait a few minutes. The waitress was excellent although extremely busy. The food was very good and the portions were large. I was impressed that everything went so well even though the place was at full capacity and everyone was new. The cost is moderate and there are a good number of menu options. Both of my friends agreed this was a great option for breakfast in Leland. We have been waiting for months to see this restaurant open and we were not disappointed. read more

Let me be the first to review the new Eggs Up Grill in Leland. We were frequent diners at the Eggs Up in Pawleys Island when we lived there. To the point that they did not give us a menu when we walked in because they knew what we were going to order. It appears that the server, that we had today, will be as diligent in remembering details. Her name was Annie and it was her first day, but you would never know it. One of the best service we have ever had. Great bright atmosphere and reasonably prize compared to other, restaurants in the area. Also don't feel crowded next to other diners. So glad to have another choice in Leland. read more

I have been to the Eggs Up Grill location in Leland numerous times in the past and I never had an issue until my most recent visit. I had a party of three that was seated for breakfast on a Saturday morning. It was busy but we got a booth quickly and the waitress came by to take our order. After that we sat for over 20 minutes and never saw her again. The customer behind us even commented that she never even brought our drinks after 15 minutes. I saw that our waitress was getting pick up orders ready at the counter so I guess she was too busy to bring us our food. We eventually got up and walked out. I told the hostess why we were leaving and she apologized. I left a negative Yelp review and then received a response from a manager named Jason who offered me a free breakfast if I would give them another chance. I am happy to report that I went back to the Eggs Up Grill in Leland and had a great meal and received excellent service this time around. This is a prime example of how to turn an unhappy customer into a happy customer by simply responding to feedback, admitting your mistake and attempting to make things right. I will definitely be returning to Eggs Up Grill again. read more

We were very disappointed. We had to flag down our server twice. Once to take our order after delivering coffee and again to get our check. Never once was our coffee refilled. From seating to end took over an hour. To add insult to injury, the omelet I ordered was not what I asked for. It had taken so long that I wasn't willing to send it back and reorder. We won't return read more

Omg ... incredible! I was nervous based on prior reviews but this place is a new favorite! Destinee was our server and was just incredible. I can be annoying and want multiple drinks like soda and coffee and she had ample refills quickly. The food was AMAZING. I had the crossiant donuts and the goodness gracious omlet and one of the best I ever had!!! The vibe in the restaurant too is classic diner. Will def be coming back read more

Horrible experience!! Ordered avocado toast. Waited 30 min for the cold/soggy toast with brown avocado spread covered in onion salsa. Eggs and bacon very cold. Told waitress and she said sorry but the bacon was crispy right? We didn't eat any of it but were charged for full meal. $33 for 2 avocado toast and coffees. First and last time! read more

My server Destinee was very nice I come every couple months and I enjoy the food every time . 10/10 would recommend

The place is bright and airy, and our waitress very helpful. The servings were very large and we all took leftovers home to enjoy another day. Definitely a place to return to. read more

Decent food, and good service. It's nice to have a dinner like restaurant near by. I would suggest not getting sausage if you're getting sausage gravy (which was good by the way) read more

I understand this place is fairly new but they've got a few things they need to work on. We got there and there was a 30 minute wait. We know that's pretty typical as there aren't many breakfast sit down restaurants in the area. So we waited. Once we sat down, it took another 15 minutes for anyone to acknowledge or walk past us to offer water or take our orders. At that point we were getting pretty annoyed. The waitress showed up and apologized because she said the hostess never told her we were a part of her area. So we gave her our orders. My husband got a custom omelette with 3 meat portions. He was a little underwhelmed because he figured if he was going to add that many ingredients, he'd get a nice fat omelette but it was very thin. So he had to order an additional 4 sausage patties. We waited a while and the waitress came by and asked if the sausages ever showed up. We said no, so a few mins later, she went and got them. Additionally, we both had home fries and they were cut too big so instead of crispy home fries, we got boiled potatoes with seasoning. Hopefully this place can work out the kinks as Leland desperately needs more brunch spots! read more

Great breakfast, fast service, pleasant servers, reasonable prices. Highly recommend!

My server Jayleigh was the absolute best, she was so attentive, helpful and kind and just made the experience overall amazing!!!

Service was quick and omelets were tasty. However home fries were undercooked potatoes before they turned them into home fries. I'll give them a second chance since this is a new place read more
