    The key

    Gotta drop it down a star. The 1st time I went the coffee was not good. I didn't hold it against them, it wasn't really high up on my priority list. But I went again today and both me and my wife noticed the coffee was terrible again. It tastes like, like weeks coffee mixed in with this week and they never cleaned the coffee makers, like ever. I'm not a coffee snob. I love diner coffee. But this is bad. Again the food was good. I had the fluffy krabby Benedict and it was delicious. My wife had the full mess and loved it. Food is really good! Staff was friendly and good! No notes on staff. Perfection.

    Breakfast Salad. Best salad I've ever seen, not one piece of lettuce

    TC Eggington's is one of those places where the food, service, and atmosphere all align perfectly, which is likely why it's always packed and people keep coming back, like me. *Food: the menu is huge (seriously huge), with an incredible variety of options, and everything is consistently high-quality. Fresh ingredients, generous portions, and dishes that actually taste as good as they look. I have a love hate relationship with trying new things, but here, you can't go wrong, everything is excellent and there's no regrets changing it up occasionally, you'll find many favorites. Check out the pics of our 3 items. *Service: service is excellent across the board. Friendly, prompt, attentive, and exactly what you want in a busy breakfast spot without feeling pushy or rushed. Even when the place is slammed, they keep things moving without making you feel rushed. *Atmosphere: The feeling once seared is warm and comfortable, definitely bustling, but not chaotic, and it feels like one of those local gems you can count on to "feel good" every single time. You'll likely have to wait for a table, especially on weekends, but the food is worth it. I do have one significant complaint: there simply aren't enough restrooms. They have a single-person bathroom for a restaurant that can easily hold 100+ people. When they're busy (and they usually are), it becomes a real bottleneck, or a real blocker when you need a facility. It doesn't ruin the experience, but it's noticeable, so plan ahead if you're "regular",...can't believe I just write that in a review :-) *Overall: excellent food, excellent service, huge menu, consistent quality, and a comfortable atmosphere. You'll wait for a table and if you don't time it right you'll wait for the bathroom, but everything else hits the mark. Absolutely love this place.

    T.C. Eggington's is a fantastic breakfast and lunch spot in Mesa. The food, service, and updated atmosphere all make it well worth a visit. I ordered the Country Fried Chicken with scrambled eggs and potatoes, and everything was cooked perfectly. The gravy on the country fried steak was especially good--rich, flavorful, and just the right consistency. The potatoes were crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and seasoned well. Overall, a great breakfast that felt hearty and satisfying. Prices were totally fair and comparable to other local breakfast places, especially considering the quality and portion size. They also have a wide variety of options to choose from--omelets, skillets, pancakes, sandwiches, eggs benedict, and more. There's something on the menu for everyone, whether you're in the mood for savory or sweet. They recently did a remodel inside, and it looks great. The space feels fresh, clean, and updated while still keeping that cozy breakfast vibe. It's a comfortable and welcoming place to sit down and enjoy a meal. Definitely a go-to spot for breakfast or brunch in Mesa. I'll be coming back to try more from the menu.

    Candied bacon
    Sandra H.

    Came for breakfast and tried their candied sweet and spice bacon omg was that so delicious probably my favorite thing. My best friend and I each got the eggs Benedict she got the farmer and I got the classic. And we shared both. One thing I noticed is the hollandaise sauce gets lost idk why I just did not really taste it and hollandaise sauce is one of my favorite things on a Benedict. The home fries did not seem to have any seasoning so just some potatoes. Brandon was friendly and our order came quickly . The rest of the staff was also friendly and overall we did enjoy our time

    Fresh made muffins to go with

    Another Delicious Brunch find, T.C. Eggington's is coming up on almost 40 years in business. Newly remodeled and ready to welcome you all in with some exciting new menu items. Spacious dining room seating and excellent customer service. The food was hot & fresh, great quality and presentation. Definitely worth checking out.

    Croquet Monsieur  was delish! (Ask for more sauce on the side)
    Dee B.

    Excellent friendly service. We were greeted right away with a warm smile and asked if we visited before and since we just moved to the state we had not! Our server arrived to our table immediately noted that she was told that it was our first time and "welcome!"This says a lot about the attentiveness of the staff at this location in Mesa. The coffee is good and OJ is served in a tall glass! Husband found finally found a place that has black olives for his omelette! The omelette is awesome. I saw some yelpers did not eat the potatoes and I was hesitant to try them because I thought they were dehydrated, but they are delicious with nice crisp edges and they were very well seasoned. Croquet Monsieur Had generous portions of ham and is well made. Having been to France and Paris, I was expecting the sauce to be on top, but found it underneath just on top of the generous portion of French bread. The sauce was tasty, but it would've liked more of it, but the amount was perfect for most peoples tastes. I think I'll ask for a little sauce on the side next time to pour over it!! All in all, I had to MAKE myself STOP eating the delicious generous portion size. (I stopped at like 2 bites left!) The French bread was so delicious and so fresh ! The apple jelly is THE BEST IVE EVER HAD!!!

    Red Velvet Waffle
    Christina M.

    I hadn't been here since I was a teenager and I stopped in when visiting Arizona last week. The food was great. Really enjoyed the red velvet waffles (which are gluten free!) We were seated right away and the service was attentive.

    Country-Fried Steak & Eggs
    Kathryn W.

    Stopped in for a quick breakfast cuz it was near my Airbnb and looked good. I definitely got in before the Sunday breakfast crowd so I got seated and served quickly. Very cute on the inside, plenty of parking outside and a patio! My server was great! I loved my country fried steak plate, so filling and just what i wanted! I would definitely go back if I'm in the area !

    Watered down coffee.
    Arvie L.

    Ever since I was born my family took me to T.C. Eggington's. Every time was a joyous experience until the new owner took over. Smaller food portions, coffee was watered down immensely, wait time was long for seating and wait time for food was over twice as long with no heads up, and the smile on the waiters? Wiped. Gone from them. This place used to be amazing, but from the 20 years of me being here. This has got to be the worst experience I have ever had. Sure the atmosphere was alright but it did not live up to what it used to be. People say change is nice, but for T.C. Eggington's? Shame. Never coming again. Very sad.

    I was celebrating my birthday at a Hilton hotel near Golfland. I wanted to get breakfast somewhere and T. C. Eggington's was the highest rated place that was nearby. Drove over there with my girlfriend and bestfriend and we ordered a bunch of food. The waiter was quick and attentive. You could see other waiters being very attentive for other tables. The people were really nice and the place had this nice cozy morning vibe. The food was priced nicely and the quality of the food was amazing. My bacon avocado grilled was super delicious and every dish had a side of potato's. Definitely worth more than the price we paid for. I would definitely recommend to a friend!

    Are small dogs allowed on the patio?

    I just phoned TC Eggington's (4-26-26) and they confirmed that small dogs are indeed allowed on their outdoor patio only, not allowed inside.

    Does anyone have an Eggington's biscuits and gravy copy cat recipe you'd be willing to share? I might have to fly here from California just for this.

    then fly over LOL.

    Instant nostalgia walking in as this location used to be a 5 & Diner that I'd been frequenting…read moresince the 1990s with my Nanny (British for Grandma). I'd been meaning to try this location after seeing a few of my fellow Yelper friends review this place. Just like they said, this place did not disappoint! Serving up quality diner food with friendly service, classic hits, and blast from the past decor. What We Ordered: - Steak & Eggs: Under $20?! Count me in! Seasoned well and cooked perfectly to order for both the over easy eggs and medium rare steak. Breakfast perfection! - Patty Melt: My boyfriend said it was delicious, and the small bite I tried was great. You can tell they season their burger patties. Honestly, we both left very impressed as all the food was seasoned well and cooked beautifully. Who says diner food can't be done well?! Nana Dee's has set the standard for diner food!

Lovely, well-kept and bright American Diner experience with vibrant decor to keep your eyes busy while you have a short wait for your food. Valerie was there every step of the way to ensure our needs were met and our questions were answered. First Class experience - thank you

Since 2016, this non-profit diner has been directly supporting homebound cancer patients through sponsored meals. The menu is deep, and the food is incredible! And honestly, I feel confident with all of their options. The place was packed and everyone looked satisfied. I ordered the chilaquiles which were a delightful offering of crispy tortilla chips covered in earthy red chili, topped with a velvety poached egg, on a bed of hearty pinto beans that had a hint of cumin, all which was drizzled with a rich crema and crumbled queso fresco. My dad had the Rueben and he said it was in his top-three he's ever had! Even during the Saturday brunch rush we were seated promptly, the kitchen was swift and our waitress was kindly attentive to our needs. We will definitely be adding this fine establishment to our short list, and can see why this is a community staple.

As my wife is a…read morecancer survivor, the idea of a charitable organization that provides food to cancer patients and their caregivers was of great interest to us. We finally decided to try the diner, and oh my goodness--this is no substandard food kitchen. This is top-notch food at reasonable prices and for a great cause. You can't go wrong! We arrived on a Sunday at their new location, which is super nice, VW bus and all. :) While relatively small, it is many times larger than their old location around the corner. You can sit inside at a table, at the bar, or at one of the few patio tables on a nice day. We sat inside for this first visit, and a friendly server took our order. We chose to order from the breakfast menu, and I ordered The Camper: Crispy double-dipped fried chicken thigh smothered in savory gravy and topped with cheese, three slices of Nueske's peppered bacon, and an over-easy egg, served on a housemade butter biscuit. My wife ordered the CSA Scramble: Farm-fresh veggies from Crooked Sky Farms CSA basket scrambled with three eggs, served with fruit, sliced tomato, and 9-grain toast. Needless to say, we were both impressed. The Camper was absolutely perfect. I would not change a thing. The gravy was just special, and there was so much food, I took some home. My wife's dish was fresh and perfect for what she was looking for. Do consider donating to this worthy cause. We chose to, and you can even donate right on your bill so that it goes right on your credit card if you so choose. But even if you just pay for your meal, you are helping out, which is so great about eating at this place. Do yourself a favor and stop in to see the friendly people at The Joy Bus Diner!

But I can judge simply food or filet a trout or chicken and add a homemade beurre blanc sauce. I like simple red wine but relish a Camus anniversary bottle. We eat at hole in the walls and expensive places. But often we look at each other and choose between Dennys or VI, and are happy! Today, May 16th at VI on Signal Butte - rough start by a waitress who told both of us "I need to know your pie order. NOW." Resturant was not busy. Not at all. It was 4:15 maybe. Slow on a SUNDAY post-winter visitor rush on a late Spring day. Rushed. I pointed to my 3-6pm dinner choice of TURKEY. I showed her. "Just as it comes. She repeated it back to me as she typed in into her handheld computer. Chicken fried steak arrived. And a sausage looking oval patty shape of stuffing. Two long finger prints in it. I wondered if she picked up my loose stuffing as it's normally served here in America, or rather the chef did this to all who request it. I told my husband to look for spit in his food. My hubby? Nicest guy ever. But when he knows I didn't want and could not manage fried beef..but I had fasted 21 hours. I needed sliced fresh high protein meat. Wait another 15 min or eat the mess on my plate? I told her I'd eat it. Truly don't like complaining let alone confrontation with a Russian native with a sharp attitude because of a rough life. My nephew is from there so I GET the trauma. and I though I know I can usually switch my palate. But not for this plate of food. I felt sick looking at it. "Just eat the 'steak' I picked the stuffing apart - could not eat more than a thimble. Gummy gluten salty yuck was inedible. The FINGERPRINTS! 2 Fingertips past knuckles imprinted. I left it and hope someone there stopped to think "Why?" Our Waitress tried to make up by suddendly being nice when she walked behind me with a second piece of pie ...to go home. Thanked me for being agreeable or something. I nodded. I remember this saying if you l oh someone's attention the first three seconds and first three steps you'll spend the next 30 min trying to make them believe you're hiring. It's true. I was too tired this week to be extremely understanding but I'm never rude. I told my hubby let's both let this one go. And I said "But we won't return here." He nodded in agreement. Because I see people come in and sit down I see how tired they are and make quick calls to be able to turn their day around if only for a short time before they return home....to being a caregiver or to grieve a loss. Sad dinner and maybe she had a tough week too. But. But times 3 over.
