Bright and clean. In 5 weeks they have used over 10,000 eggs (says the sign on the back wall). The food was good. Waffles were excellent but the hash was passable. Eggs were perfect and bacon came crispy. Coffee was ok and only half and half available (no cream). We didn't try the specialty ones from a machine. There's lots of variety on the menu, and we will come back to try more. read more

Eggs Up Grill - Founder's Hash: 2 eggs, hash, potatoes and sourdough toast - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Norfolk, Virginia

Really hard to find breakfast near the zoo on a random Tuesday morning. So happy this place was open. Absolutely sweetest service and very yummy pancakes. Great kids' menu with appropriate portions - kids choose 3 items plus a drink. Our kid had silver dollar pancakes, bacon and a scrambled egg. read more

The most disgusting omelette I've ever had in my life. Stay away from the Baja omelette. The salsa on top was old tomato. Absolutely no spices or seasoning. One bite and I returned it. Beware the policy is once you order it you have to pay for it, whether you eat it or not. Definitely sticking to what I know. The chicken inside looked like can unseasoned mush chicken . The potatoes were bland. read more

Good food, great staff. Breakfast and lunch only. Perfect way to start the day. On 22nd St, behind ALDIs.

This place is amazing! Came for brunch, very impressed! I got the Little Waffle in the Hen House and my friends got several other more eclectic choices. Both were phenomenal! Highly recommend the Bananas Foster french toast. This place is great for breakfast staples and/or more adventurous options! Jordan was our waiter & was very polite! read more

Just ordered from here for the first time. My order was not complete. Bacon egg and cheese biscuit and it can with no bacon. The home fries were good, a little under seasoned but better that than over salted. I'll give it another try. I'll just check my bag before I leave. read more

The food was ok, customer service very good, the vanilla coffee too sweet. The apple pancakes were the best tried.

My wife and I really liked this restaurant for weekend breakfast. The food was good and fresh, the service was attentive and courteous, and the atmosphere was relaxed and casual. Unfortunately, the last time we visited a customer chose to walk in with a gun fully visible in the rear waist band of his pants, and sit at the counter where everyone could see him (and the gun). No staff asked him to leave or to secure his weapon in his vehicle, and nobody (as far as I know, though we left pretty quickly) called the police. I know VA's gun laws are ridiculously lax, but businesses have the right (and I would say the responsibility) not to allow deadly weapons on their premises (especially in a city with a notable gun violence problem like Norfolk). Before you ask, "well, how do you know he wasn't a cop," um, he most definitely was not. And any cop who carried a weapon in as sloppy and unsafe a way as this guy would be relieved of both weapon and job before long. I wrote to the restaurant's management expressing concern and disappointment that it did not take its customers' safety more seriously, but received no reply. We haven't been back and likely won't return unless the business decides not to flagrantly disregard customer safety by allowing people to bring deadly weapons into a place of business. read more

I loved the breakfast, it was fresh and seasoned just right. Exceptional customer service and very chill atmosphere. I went at 6 am on a Saturday and loved it! read more

Not bad, but lots better places in Ghent for breakfast. They had lots of room and it was bright and airy in the dining room. No wait for a table even with a larger group. That being said the food was just ok. Eggs done right, who can't do eggs... sausage pattys were the best part, pancakes were dry and unappealing (good news was a 40 of decent syrup on the table) service was prompt with constant refills. Eat here if Little dog has a long wait or if you have a larger party. read more

The food is eggs-celent! The service is even better. Penny is an outstanding server! She always has a smile and a kind word. Highly recommend! read more

If you're in the area definitely give Eggs up a try! Very friendly and family oriented. Every single one of the staff we interacted with was amazing. The food is also superb with all sorts of breakfast and brunch options! read more

Service was cheerful and fast. The hash brown bowl was mouth watering and extremely filling.

My friends and I enjoyed a lovely breakfast here. The food was fast and tasty and the service was impeccable. Jordan was our server and he was fantastic! read more

Working my way through the menu for sure. I've been here several times and the food has been consistently high quality. Personal favorite is the special corned beef hash. Fresh made, not from a can!! It's especially good on their special Founders Hash Benedict!! The CBH on an English muffin drizzled with hollandaise is awesome!! The staff is super friendly and always attentive. This will likely be a go-to Sunday morning breakfast spot for us until the start kicking us out. read more

We love this restaurant, but sadly, they have no non-dairy milk options for a dairy allergy and they have no gluten free bread options for gluten allergies. While there are gluten free and dairy free options, it's somewhat limited-no coffee creamer alternative and no toast or sandwich option. read more

Breakfast is really good here. You don't see a breakfast bowl in many places, so that was a cool surprise. The restaurant is spacious and has plenty of seating. However, if you are a booth person, I recommend getting there early. read more

omg works can't explain how great this restaurant is!! our waitress Holly was amazing! very attentive staff and even more amazing food. I had the grand classic which consisted of sooo much food (eggs, toast, sausage, bacon, home fries, AND grits) for only $10.99. prices were great and so was the good. read more

i have been excited about this place since they opened! i work at a plant store nextdoor and i finally got to work early enough to get something. i ordered online through their website and it was super easy to do so. it said my order would be ready in 10 minutes and they had it ready in 6. the staff there is super friendly and when they first opened they came into my store to introduce themselves and give coupons! i created my own breakfast sandwich with a plain bagel, turkey back, egg omelette style and cheese with a size of home fries (because duh). when i opened the box my jaw dropped. the sandwich was stacked! each individual ingredient was cooked perfectly and it made for an incredible sandwich. they also provided a cream cheese on the side? i slapped that right on the sandwich and it was delicious. definitely going to start planning on getting to work early more often. read more

Eggs Up Grill - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Norfolk, Virginia

I placed my order Togo originally then called 3min later to cancel it because I was coming in to eat instead. I talked to the manager who said to come in anyway because she cant cancel it. We come in to eat and within 3min she was bringing us our food. Our food that has been sitting in the window for 30+ min. She told me that she would MAKE my food when we got there since I already put in the order. When I told her the food was cold she told me and my family "I don't know what to tell ya". She took our plates back to the kitchen and put them in the microwave. I was beyond annoyed especially after seeing her walk around in flips flops, it gave me the indication that she REALLY didn't care. No wonder why she spoke to me like that. We were originally coming in because my husband just lost his father and he wanted the relief of getting out of the house. But he said "I feel worse after having an experience like this". read more

This restaurant is one of the best breakfast spots in Norfolk. The food is great and the service is excellent. Nice clean inviting atmosphere. read more

Eggs Up Grill - our food:) - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Norfolk, Virginia

Eggs up Grill in Ghent has a very clean, hometown feel. The food is always hot, and I highly recommend the founders hash! The service is quick, friendly, and they always make you feel welcomed or remembered. read more

I absolutely recommend this place I have enjoyed every time we have visited ! Such a cozy spot in Ghent to enjoy brunch and mimosas ! Great prices and atmosphere read more

See all

Well I am so disappointed in this cute little place. I took the girls early in the morning Sat and found it to be less than welcoming . The food was flavorless and I wish I had not chosen it to start our day. We ordered the kids meal for the girls and some recommended bowl dish for me. We all didn't like our food but was never asked if we did or not. The grits were the worst! The waitress never smiled.. not once! She looked like she hated being there so that along with the awful food means we will not be returning. The price ended up being (including my 5 for a tip) around 33 dollars and some change. The restaurant is cute which is why I chose it with many regrets. My girls are well behaved and they were hungry. It advertises that they are a family restaurant. It played country music and was big enough to accommodate a lot of people. Don't go there if friendly service is something important to you. We later went to wawa where the girls were welcomed by a good morning smile where we got some doughnuts and hot chocolate. In conclusion, this restaurant is NOT on my go to places. It's a shame because I live so close and had wanted to go there for a while only to go there with my very loved nieces only to find it so disappointing on food and service. Do better yall you have cute place! Could be , but is not a wonderful little local spot and I DO NOT RECOMMEND. Sorry.. read more

We did not enjoy our food. The shrimp and grits bowl was not appetizing. The fountain machine wasn't working, when we did get our lemonade spritzer it was flat and the lemonade tasted like water. The only thing I enjoyed was the French Toast. read more

Very clean and bright. Service was fast and friendly. Price was very reasonable. I did breakfast food both times was there and it's good food. Highly recommend read more

I've had some iffy experiences here, sometimes management doesn't seem to know what they're doing (it always looks like 1/3 the staff is doing 3/4 the work, and tables definitely aren't allocated evenly which is a pain). I've had one amazing server, Penny, who I ask for every time now. The food is good overall, and big portions. Sitting outside if they have it open is a nice change from other diners in town. read more

Thank you to the crew at Eggs Up Grill - Hostess Meghan, our lovely waitress and the manager - for making it possible for us to enjoy a delicious breakfast outside this morning. The outdoor section was not open and when I explained that my husband was going through chemo and that it was his birthday they made a breakfast for us happen on their patio. I can't tell you how appreciative I am for the service you provided. You made his birthday extra special. Thank you so so much!!! read more

Came across this place by accident, but wow I'm glad that I did, loved the food, best french toast ever, eggs cooked perfectly. This is now my go to place for belreakfsst. read more

As soon as we walked in we were greeted and showed to our table. Everyone that walked in was greeted with a smile. Cute place and the food was great. Servers neat, everything looked clean. Will definitely return. Enjoyed a great breakfast. read more

Unfortunately went here again. Service was still friendly which is why I won't give 1star. The avocado toast was the only thing worth eating at our entire table. It's hard to understand how a place called eggs up couldn't cook anyone's eggs correctly. The poached eggs were so undercooked with almost all of the whites still clear and runny and someone's scrambled eggs were also very runny. My eggs were supposed to be over medium but were definitely over easy. 3 egg orders underdone. The steak was underdone from medium rare to just plain bloody. When asked to fix it we just received another rare steak and offered steak sauce multiple times. All persons at our table were so disappointed that we chose this over supporting local at Little Dog. We have been countless times to little dog and never let down. Lesson learned...skip the new shiny franchise in town and go to the dependable Little Dog Diner read more

Hosted a work breakfast with twelve people and they were very accommodating. Food was great, service very attentive and coffee was kept flowing. I also appreciated the parking as Ghent can be tricky if the business doesn't have a parking lot. We will definitely go again! read more

Favorite breakfast spot in the area so far. I get it once a week and have been happy each time. I do wish they wouldn't turn off online ordering, include all menu options in online ordering, and also keep the sizes consistent (hollandaise sauce side keeps getting smaller). read more

Great breakfast here with my family. We all had something different and everyone enjoyed their food. Excellent service also.

The best French toast I've ever had. Had to wait for a minute to get in but it was worth the wait. Service was great and the food was out in 15 minutes despite them being so busy. Definitely would recommend. read more

The food is very good. however their App needs improvement. I placed an order for delivery and when I hit submit it flipped to Pickup. I called and the woman mgr said I had to have made a mistake. She said for me to place another order and hit a delivery. I did and it flipped to pickup. I was able to get it back to delivery and submitted it. The manager said she would credit my first charge that was incorrectly submitted as pickup. So on my bank acct I had 2 charges and she never gave me a credit or refund. I spoke to my bank about it. They told me to call owner to get it resolved. I did that-but instead of resolving it. The owner got angry that had his number. I told him the bank said I had to try to resolve with him first. I tried 2 times. He never resolved it. Just upset that the bank had his number. So I have now filed a dispute through my bank. As much as I like the food I will never eat or order from Eggsup Grill in Ghent again. Sad! read more

We have been going to this place every week for the last month and plan to keep the trend going! This has been the best bang for your buck breakfast place in all of Norfolk and the service is great! The owner(?) greets every customer that comes in. Holly is the best server, her vibes are immaculate and her smile is contagious! Coming to eggs up feels like the classic weekend breakfast/brunch option read more
