Just wanted to say the server was amazing. She was quick and really nice. Food was immaculate. Got my order right and had a great breakfast with my mom. 10/10 breakfast place. Fair prices and good environment.

Western Omelet

Food was ok very skimpy on the cheese for my omelette and I've had better but waitress was very nice and fast received my food very fast. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was very packed.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I didn't really understand that.

Breakfast Quesadilla
Brittanie M.

We decided to make a stop by the Golden Egg on the morning of our annual beach departure. My Aunt made the recommendation and we needed a breakfast redemption after have a horrible experience at Omega Pancake House (please avoid that place at all costs!). Golden Egg Pancake House did not disappoint and absolutely lived up to the hype that my Aunt was telling us about. It was a Sunday morning and I expected to wait at least an hour for a table but they were only running about 15-20 minutes for seating of a party of 4. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant was huge and had plenty of seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] After being seating, we were immediately greeted and placed drink orders. We enjoyed EVERYTHING we ordered and unlike Omega Pancake House EVERYTHING WAS FRESH! The food was delicious and exactly what we needed to fill our belly's and prepare for a 7 hour drive home. My mother loved her chip beef gravy and said it tasted exactly like my grandmothers. My boyfriend's breakfast quesadilla was HUGE and packed with all the meats, and my scrambled eggs and cheese, sausage patties, and French toast was so tasty! The only thing we did not enjoy was the iced coffee. Please make this a must go the next time you are looking to enjoy a fresh and filling breakfast. We will absolutely be back next year when we're in town for vacation.

A super Egg-cellent breakfast! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Found this place online this morning and it is a super popular joint with cozy clean decor.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The service was great and they even have spots for you to save your own coffee mug with your name when you visit. I tried their chicken and waffles which was amazing! They put a blend of sweet butter with siracha while the waffle is tasty fluffy and light. The fried chicken was perfect and succulent. South Carolina is definitely the place to order a sweet tea. We also had some hot cakes with bacon, sauce and eggs which were perfect. The chicken fried steak, house fries and gravy was just out of this world! You guys have to do yourselves a favor and try this place out if you are ever visiting Myrtle Beach / Surfside Beach South Carolina

Breaded pork chops with sausage, gravy, scrambled eggs, grits, breaded steak with toast the sweet tea was great

Me and my wife went today after we met 16 years ago we went to the golden egg and the food is still as great as it was then, and the service is great as well 5 stars from us

Nutella pancakes

My family of 4 went around 10 m on a rainy friday morning peak season. 35 min wait but they take ur number they text and call when ur tables ready so u can easily wait in car. The waitress was great, attentive but not obnoxious. The food was very good. I had gravy and biscuit came with home fries added a side of bacon. Huge portion two large biscuits split with enormous amount of sawmill sausage gravy. Home fries yummy. Bacon perfectly crisp. One daughter had a breakfast wrap ginormous and very well seasoned. Other had Nutella French toast again huge serving and very tasty. My husband had a breakfast plate with eggs pancakes bacon and homefries very large portion as well. Basically anything u get here is going to be a large portion and we had no complaints. Service was very good for Avery busy restraunt and nothing was sent out wrong. Very much enjoyed our experience.

The burger was so juicy it took all of these.

This is a must stop for us when we are in the area. Usually it's for breakfast. I love the stuffed French toast and the sausage biscuits. My wife's go to is the Carolina omelette. Today I changed it up and had lunch. I got the mushroom swiss burger. It was a half pound of ground chuck. The mushrooms were obviously fresh. One of the best burgers I have had in a while.

The Grand Strand is known as the pancake capital and for good reason! Vacationers and locals flock to these diners serving breakfast with all the trimmings! The Golden Egg stands out for their mug club, stuffed French toast and super friendly service! We loved our breakfast and will be back soon!

Breakfast Bowl
Diana D.

We stopped by here after the place that was nearby where we originally wanted to have breakfast was closed. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This is a cozy little diner with a friendly staff.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We ordered the breakfast bowl and huevos rancheros. The breakfast bowl was a huge portion and tasted good. Huevos rancheros, on the other hand, were disappointing. It looked like a plate of tortilla chips with some black beans and eggs. It was served with a cold salsa, avocado, and jalapeño on the side. I just had the eggs and avocado and pretty much left the rest. Perhaps I should have ordered a different item, and my experience would have been better.

Menu as of 10/27/24.

There are great breakfast spots all around the South Strand beaches you just have to find the best ones. Golden Egg is a favorite among locals and tourists alike and for good reason. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's a nicely decorated restaurant with a small gift shop.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The wait staff is busy but always friendly. I had a Fajita Omelette which for the most part was quite tasty. The slices avocado on top and the grilled jalapeño on the side was a nice addition. Good choice if you like Tex-Mex. My wife had her typical omelette which she said was tasty. Try to get here early, especially in the summer months, if you want to avoid a wait time to get a table.

Chipped Beef Gravy Perfection! Grits and Scrambled Eggs!
Dawn W.

First visit this trip and wishing we'd come sooner! Oswaldo was our Server once again and he remains a Rockstar! He is truly an asset to the restaurant. Our food was delicious as usual. The reason for the 4 Stars is the Chipped Beef Gravy was lukewarm and sadly got colder as we ate. Perhaps they made it too soon while waiting for the other dishes to be prepared? It was delicious but is definitely better hot or at least warm as we know from past visits. My husband had the Golden Egg Special with Sausage Links and said all was hot and delicious. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant is very clean and the staff are always friendly and efficient.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We love Golden Egg and look forward to our visit every year!

Stopped in for breakfast while in town based off the yelp reviews. They were absolutely right, this…read moreis a hidden gem in plain sight! We tried two different omelettes, home fries and the kiddo got pancakes. All were outstanding. The omelettes were fluffy and loaded! The home fries were redskin which took them to a whole other level. Staff was friendly and attentive, food came out quick and very nicely presented on the plates all in a casual comfortable environment. This is a must stop for breakfast if you're in town. Wish I would have taken pics before we ate but it looked so good we just dove in.

Leaving the beach from a week long vacation, we wanted to stop and get some breakfast before we hit…read morethe road. Yelp directed us to this place. We pulled up to what looked like an old Italian restaurant. When we entered there was a board with specials and a hostess/waitress seated us. I was a little trepidatious since we were the only people there but very rarely do you yelpers steer me wrong! Our British company ordered hot tea, while the rest of the party ordered water, juice or soda. I say this only because each Brit got a teapot of their own. It was lovely and appreciated! Most of our table got omelets due to the recommendation of the waitress and they were definitely delicious. But the potatoes that accompanied them were the best thing we had there! I had the biscuits and gravy (a special on the board). While they were tasty, the biscuit was more crumbly than I like and the presentation was visually unappealing. The interior was clean and had a definite "Mom and Pop" vibe. It is Veteran owned, which was a plus for us! The price was just right for the very good breakfast that we were served. I would recommend you stop here at any point on your vacation, you won't be disappointed.

The waitress was very friendly and gave our menus .. I ordered 2 eggs with cornbeef hash and grits with English muffin and my grandson ordered the red velvet waffle , my husband ordered the chicken and bit with gravy and my other grandson French toast . Everyone seemed to enjoy there plates and Finshed them . But me the cornbeef hash ( homemade) the sausage was rock hard and potatoes were undercooked slightly . I told the waitresses and she got me a new plate and the potatoes were the same but sausage was better but no flavor to this cornbeef hash.. overall the restaurant was clean and the customer were packing in to get breakfast maybe I ordered the wrong plate? Anyway the decor was very beachy and the atmosphere was very pleasant. Maybe if I'm back in South Carolina I will try different items ..
