Scrambled eggs and cheese
Brittanie M.

We just arrived into town for our annual beach vacation. Breakfast is not something we usually go out and do but we brought my mom with me this year and she wanted pancakes! Omega pancake house is right around the corner from our condo and they didn't look super busy yet. When we walked in we were immediately greeted and seated at a 4 top for a party of 2. When our waitress Theresa came to take our drink order, we were also already ready to place our meal order. We ordered a coffee, 2 freshly squeezed orange juice, Blueberry ricotta waffle with bacon, and a side of scrambled eggs and cheese. We also ordered sweet potato pancakes, eggs over medium, and hash brown. The waffle was delicious with fresh blueberries and blueberry syrup. My mom LOVED her sweet potato pancakes with homemade cinnamon butter. The bad... some of the food was obviously precooked early in the morning. I understand that this is a vacation destination so they want to get people in and out fast and remaking popular sides makes it more efficient to turn tables but I'm very disappointed. Almost $7 for a side of bacon that was absolutely inedible. It was as chewy as a dog treat. The scrambled eggs also taste like a hotel continental breakfast... premade and my cheese was just sprinkled on top. The eggs weren't even hot enough to melt the cheese like they have been sitting prior to turning them into scrambled eggs and cheese. The hash brown again, tasted like it was precooked early that morning and just slapped on the plate when they received our ticket. The only thing hot and fresh were the pancakes and waffle. Everything else was a disappointment. We ordered a Greek burrito to go and my boyfriend said it tasted alright. Our server was lovely but we probably won't be back if we are ever in the mood for breakfast again. Hopefully we can find somewhere that provides made to order during the rest of our trip. Also the orange juice is NOT fresh squeezed and they overcharge you. Highway Robbery and dishonest. I'm editing my review after having the best experience at Golden Egg where the food is fresh and the menu is true to what you receive!

Omega special
David S.

Amazing breakfast spot !! Our server Maria was the absolute best , personable, funny and even sang to us even though we had stopped in at an incredibly busy breakfast rush. We have a normal breakfast spot closer to home but felt like trying something new. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant was clean , food amazing and the service was second to none.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Do yourself a favor if you're in Surfside and try Omega for breakfast.

Gyro and strawberry Nutella pancakes
Mia F.

This was my mom and Is first time in Omega pancake house in Surfside and it did not disappoint. We got the gyro and strawberry Nutella pancakes and both were amazing. I believe our waitresses name was Kristine but she was great as well. We definitely will come back the service was quick and [[HIGHLIGHT]]the place was packed but we got our food quick[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] and both items were a 10/10.

Murals everywhere
Michael M.

Great breakfast place with all the regular items plus lots of specialties too. Numerous awards from lots of papers and travel sites. We had a great waitress who handled our group of 14 like a pro. Every order was right too! All the pancakes and fancy French toast dished were well presented and attractive. Oh and tasted great too. I had the best in town corn beef hash and multi grain pancakes. Wherever possible everything was hormone free, non GMO fresh and locally grown. Many of the sweeter breakfasts had thick and creamy homemade whipped cream. It was a desert unto itself! They also serve fresh squeezed orange juice and many kinds of teas, juices and drinks. There are ocean themed murals on most walls giving it just the right vibe for a beach side diner. Our whole party of 14 agreed we should come back for breakfast again tomorrow.

Cinnamon roll and beignets with dipping sauces.
Kim S.

Wow! This restaurant was recommended to us by previous tenants where we are renting in Surfside Beach SC. We rode our bikes and arrived for brunch. The restaurant is clean, and the staff is amazingly friendly, especially our server, Donna. The owners have been in business for 46 years and she loves her job! It was recommended to us that we try the beignets and the cinnamon roll. We ordered both. Also the biscuits and gravy and some fried eggs. The food was outstanding. Donna was so attentive and kind. We highly recommend this restaurant.

Spanish Omelette
Adam O.

Great food, better service. Like everything worth it around here, expect around a 45 minutes wait for a table but it's well worth it once you're seated. Our waitress had lots of personality and was more than attentive. The food was out fast and the prices were reasonable. We're on vacation so we decided to try the mega-mimosa's, I had the orange and my wife had the pina colada, our server was right, both were good but the pina colada was better. I had the Spanish omelette which was cooked perfect with tasty vegetables and sausage spread evenly throughout the omelette. Loved the salsa that came on top as well! This came with two sides so I went with a pancake and hash browns and both were excellent. My wife really enjoyed the red, white and blue waffle as well, said she would order again. The older boys enjoyed their cinnamon rolls enough to order an additional one to split and the youngest loved his French toast and sausage, which I can confirm was very good. Definitely plan to be back here!

Mimosa!
Kristina G.

We usually go to the Golden Egg but I was drawn in by Mimosas lol. And the promise of a good Gyro. They're busy like most breakfast spots down here but we were able to get in in a decent amount of time and with a party of 10 they were able to seat us together which I was pretty impressed by. I told them we'd be fine splitting up if we had to. No need :-) I did try a mimosa and it was yummy and cute with the umbrella touch. I also had a gyro and it was very good - but not the best... The cucumber sauce was lacking even though I asked for extra. It wasn't as chunky as I liked but it was still tasty. That sauce can make or break a gyro. I feel the prices here are also a little higher than some of the other places, but my son swears this is his favorite because of his banana split waffle he can't stop talking about. So we will return.

The food was great. I did know that a cinnamon roll would make such a great waffle. Will definitely be back.

If you come here, get the pancakes or waffles. Don't bother with anything else. Pancakes and waffles good, but anything else sucks!

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.

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 ..
