Decided to eat here after looking for breakfast places in the area. It did not disappoint. Casual atmosphere, friendly staff. They were busy when we walked in, but we were seated right away. Lots of choices on the menu. We were tight on time and let our server know. She was awesome and got us in and out. read more

Visiting AZ and had a great brunch experience here after church. Atmosphere: 10/10 Old diner feel, same experience as dennys or ihop. Clean and well maintained. Service: 10/10 Everything was fairly prompt and everyone was very kind and took great care of patrons. It was very busy so nothing was right away, but still done in a timely manner. I couldn't ask for kinder servers and staff, and servers were very knowledgeable of the menu and very patient with this new comer. Food: 10/10 My friend and I enjoyed our fishes immensely. My friend ordered her favorite: biscuits and gravy, which she loved. I ordered: meat lovers and it was so good! Way better than Denny's since the bacon was real (not microwaveable) and everything was cooked to perfection. The meat was of great quality. The "house fries" were hash browns basically, just as the server promised, but was only good after I added salt, pepper and ketchup, to which I inhaled it whole. The mimosas (cranberry and the pineapple orange) were the perfect blend of alcohol to juice and were not overly sweet. The serving size was not enough to say generous but definitely received the worth of the money you spend to order one. Over all I was very pleased I brought my friend here to catch up. Great food, extraordinary service and we had a great time. Will definitely return in the future during another trip to AZ. Ps. I was starving after church so I inhaled my food and didn't take pics no perfect plating, but still comes to your table looking amazing and basically looks the same as the pics on the menu. read more

The Cracked Egg has two dining areas. One has more of an old school diner feel; complete with a counter with seating in front of the window to the kitchen. The other dining area is more of a basic dining room. We were sat across from the counter. Much like a neighborhood diner, there are regulars who sit at the counter. Regulars were having full conversations with servers and the busboy. Phones were brought out to show pictures. There was a real sense of community. Even with their conversations, other tables were taken care of. Large portions. Come hungry or be prepared for leftovers. My son ordered the fajita skillet with chicken. The amount of vegetables and chicken was plentiful. Food was well seasoned. He was offered a choice of bread or tortillas. Being a fajitas skillet, he chose the tortilla. I ordered the signature French toast. The signature French toast is "Three thick slices topped with fresh strawberries, banana slices, pecans, strawberry reduction, powdered sugar, cinnamon, and whipped cream." Order was plentiful. French toast itself was nicely cooked. It was not mushy in the middle or dry. French toast had plenty of toppings. This dish eats more like a dessert. It is coyingly sweet. The Cracked Egg has an extensive menu. All kinds of breakfast foods. There is a strong southwestern and Mexican influence in many of their savory breakfast options. For those who do not like spicy foods, there are all the typical American diner options. Prefer your breakfast sweet? There are multiple different flavors of pancakes, waffles, and French toasts to choose from. Having food ordered and delivered via food delivery apps is popular here. There was a steady stream of people coming in and showing their phones to pick up orders. The kitchen did a fabulous job of having those orders ready before the drivers got there, as well as getting the food out quickly for those dining in. The kitchen had impeccable timing. The Cracked Egg is a little far for us to dine at regularly. We chose it because it showed up on the map as being on the way to a hiking spot we wanted to check out. That being said, I do look forward to eating here again. There are many savory options I wish to try. This is a spot I look forward to returning to, and sharing this restaurant with the rest of the family. read more

So once again I came to Phoenix and picked this restaurant again.... I like their breakfast and love their coffee! If haven't had breakfast yet and you are in the neighborhood come by and give them a try..... won't be disappointed! The staff are amazing and it has a great atmosphere. Thx everyone @The Cracked Egg.... Keep up the good work! read more

First time here- 5 star Food was tasty- service was on it! My husband tried the pancho omelette with side of pancakes. He said it was really good. The pico was a little spicy for him- we're wimps though it had fresh jalapenos in it. After he took those out- there was a bite left. I had the mediterranean omelette. Can't say enough about how delicious it was. The biscuits are huge!!!!! We also shared a bacon Bloody Mary- I'm not a huge drinker but this BM was all Flavor And the waitresses were friendly- on the tea refills and made us feel welcome read more

My boyfriend and I go here a lot because we love the food. But the service we received recently was horrible. Just because we may seem or look young and are college students does not mean we should be neglected. We were checked on ONCE the entire time we were there. If you're working customer service please understand it's not just about the money but about the service you give as well. It made us not tip the server at all. Blonde Hair with black glasses and looked young herself. Genuinely so upsetting considering the service we normally get is great! read more

We wanted to try a new breakfast spot and ended up here. It's not in the best area and the place is definitely outdated but don't let that stop you from eating here. The place was clean and the food was good! Hubs got the loaded biscuits which had bacon, ham, sausage, cheese and eggs on their homemade biscuits topped with their gravy. I got an egg over easy and the strawberry banana parfait. The food was out within 15 mins and everything tasted fresh and was really good. As simple as my parfait was it really hit the spot. Our server was attentive and friendly as well Overall, if you're looking for a no frills greasy spoon diner place with great food and prices then check this place out! I'll be grabbing that parfait next time! read more

I'm not a fan of breakfast but my husband is. We have a couple of local places we will frequent on the occasions we go out for breakfast. This was our 2nd experience at the Cracked Egg and we enjoyed it. Our server was Melissa and she was hustling for sure! I had one of the combo breakfasts with eggs, bacon, home fries and biscuit. Scrambled eggs were not runny, which is a huge plus for me. Bacon was too thin in my opinion. Home fries get 2 huge thumbs up - they were delicious. The biscuits are enormous and so good! My husband had a country breakfast with a biscuit and gravy and he said it was good. He really appreciates places that have vanilla coffee creamer so this place made him happy. Only negatives for me were the too thin bacon (I'd probably order ham next time) and there were a bunch of flies in the restaurant that kept trying to land on our food. We'll eat here again. read more

Came in around 115pm on a Sunday so it was quiet and not too busy. They are spacing out guests in every other booth and staff are wearing masks. Place is nice and clean and has that old school diner feel to it. They use locally sourced ingredients and make their own chorizo, biscuits, OJ and more in house, and they have Guatemalan coffee that is delish! Hubby ordered the Volcano Biscuits and Gravy. Warning, it's a huge portion! He turned it into a mashed plate to combine everything together. You can tell the chorizo is house made and it has a good amount of spice heat to it. The gravy was thick and rich, the eggs were exactly cooked right, and the biscuits were good but firmer than he was used to. They had great flavor and sopped up the gravy and all the flavors of the dish. He couldn't eat it all but enjoyed what he did finish. He absolutely loved the coffee and even wanted to pick up a bag after we ate (they sell the roast they use here). I ordered the Banana Nut French Toast with scrambled eggs and 2 turkey sausage links. The bread was nice and thick and fluffy, and the plate was overflowing with bananas and pecans! Most places you get half a banana if you're lucky. This was at least a full banana, if not more! The pieces absorbed the whipped butter and syrup and each bite was delicious and I had enough pecans and bananas for each bite! The eggs were cooked just like my abuelita used to make them and the turkey sausage was delicious! Service was great and the staff was super friendly. We are staying nearby for the week and will definitely stop back again. No need to sit and wait 45mins or longer for some of the other brunch spots when there is delicious and filling food right here! read more

I freakin love this place. Its everything I want in a neighborhood breakfast diner. Service is always great. They have anything and everything you could possibly crave for breakfast. You can get something fun like cinnamon roll pancakes or one of the many traditional options. Scrambles, waffles, benedicts, omlettes, all amazing with huge portions. Everything I've tried has been delicious. I love that I can get a mimosa too! read more

We love this place, it's always busy so you know the food is great! Large portions And a super friendly staff!

I really liked how this place looks inside, it's not trendy or fancy but has a very homey feel to it, and is very spacious. Ok the food itself, bacon was disappointing, like the thinest cheapest bacon from Walmart. Tomatoes were fresh and eggs are about the same as anywhere else. But their bread, oh the toast bread was good and it's something I never notice anywhere else, even in a really good breakfast spot. I also ordered very basic stuff this time and would like to try other items next time! read more

The service is amazing here! I loved our server, she was incredibly sweet. She made sure we had everything we needed and then made sure to give us our space when we needed it. I got the California Benedict, which was delicious although I wasn't a fan of the hollandaise sauce. My coworker got a burger and he practically inhaled it! I would absolutely return again for a breakfast or lunch when I'm on this side of town! read more

Great homestyle food. I had the Denver omelet which was great and my girlfriend had the French toast. Both were great.

Let me tell you all....this has got to be one of the best breakfast places around!!!! I had the Strawberry Banana Pancakes ; and Damn they were big ; and Damn they were really good!!!! The service was spot on and friendly, which is hard to come by now a days!!!! All of the other plates of food going past me to other customers looked really good and with generous portions!!!! I cant wait to go back and try some of the other delicious looking menu items!!!! If you are looking for great breakfast and big plates.....this is the place for you!!!! You have got to go there hungry, i couldn't finish my pancakes , and i was hungry going in there!!!! Enjoy!!!! I Did!!!! read more

Food had NO FLAVOR. Potatoes were not seasoned and were practically cut into fourths. Huge chunks! Their version of chocolate chip pancakes is putting chocolate syrup and a HAIR on a nasty pancake. Very unpleasant brunch. DO NOT recommend coming here! Edit: As we were putting the food in a to go box to give it away, we found a hair in there. Disgusting. read more

Successful! Looked for a place on grubhub that would deliver brunch and this place did the job! We ordered a variety of items. Personally trying to stick to whole 30 / paleo , I ordered a Build Your Own Burger (BYOB) Adam and Eve style (no bun), with a fried egg and bacon. It was not clear on the menu that the burgers include fries (which I would have substituted for fruit or salad if I would have known). The homemade biscuits are HUGE and reportedly delicious! Over all a successful brunch order and I would order from here again! read more

Only reason these guys only get star is because I can't give them negative stars. I ordered an orange juice with my food through Uber Eats and I didn't get my orange juice when I called to complain about it they refused to refund my money for the juice. I would never get food from them again their staff was very unprofessional in even trying to fix my situation. Do better guys. read more

Location is easy to find, service was prompt. Came for breakfast, pancakes were really large and flavorful. Eggs (scrambled) were very dry, bacon was well cooked. Overall a good place to sit and enjoy a meal while catching up with a friend. Glad we tried it and will likely come again! read more

It's been a little while since I've been here, they have done some renovations and it looks so much nicer inside. They staff is amazing as always, there is a young man who works he is a teenager... man what a hard working young man! I was super impressed couldn't be more than 15? They added a new dish called the Volcano it is biscuits and gravy topped with homemade in house chorizo, cheese and eggs... it is so good!!! I would buy the chorizo if they sold it to make at home... very good... the portions are huge! read more

Can I just say some of the pictures really do this place so dirty... I almost passed by it on my brunch search today until my fiancé reminded me we had been here before. We arrived around noon on a Sunday, and I honestly expected about a 45 minute wait. That's pretty standard for Sunday. But we were told about 25 minutes, and seated in 20! The service is incredible, they do mimosa flights, and the food is freaking delicious. A super wide menu, and a plenty of space between tables so you aren't elbow to elbow with another group. We will absolutely be back. Do NOT trust the poor quality pictures and overlook this fantastic, low-key brunch spot. read more

ALL HAIL THE CRACKED EGG!!! Food is absolutely delish and tons of it. Service was top notch. Wish we lived close so we could have it all the time. I shared to loaded biscuit with my 13 year old son. The portion was huge. More than enough for both of us. So good. Hubby had breakfast enchiladas. He said they were amazing. We all shared an order of the Pineapple Upside Down Pancakes. OMG!!! That's all I can say. read more

Ordered from Uber Eats and had the Chicken fried steak. I really like this restaurant and frequently dine there in person as well as order delivery from. I am always disappointed though when a restaurant like this uses pre cooked, possibly frozen chicken fried steak. I feel like it would be better to remove it from the menu if cooking it from scratch is too much to make it worth it. Anyway, will continue to come here but would recommend any other of the delicious options available and stay away from the CFS. read more

Potatoes were not well cooked. Large portions, but food was just a little under-seasoned. I had the Meat Lovers. The ham was tasty. My eggs were okay. The sausage and bacon was pretty good. My country fried potatoes were just not seasoned. I guess maybe they just expect you to add your own salt. My daughter said the Spinach Florentine skillet was okay. The vegetables were not done enough. The hashbrowns that came with the other meals were underdone in some parts. It was not a horrid experience, but it wasn't particularly memorable either. read more

So my experience at The Cracked Egg was a bit disappointing but to their credit, they did try to fix it. The chicken and waffle was quite off putting. The chicken tenders were pre-made, super salty and not quite what I anticipated for about a $16 platter. The waffle was nice but after one bite into a chicken tender my stomach could not tolerate the chicken tender. The onion was not really executed very well either. I unfortunately had to send the dish back to the kitchen and couldn't imagine eating anything else at the time that could make up for it. My partner's breakfast sandwich was served with a big clump of egg in the middle stuffed with cheese; a big portion of the croissant was bare. The potatoes served with the croissant were not cooked all the way. Unfortunately my partner couldn't eat their food either. Long story short we both were super dissatisfied with the things we ordered. I am sure anything else on the menu would probably be okay, with specific directives to fully cook their potatoes. Also, I would avoid the pre-made tenders that I could easily heat straight from the freezer. The manager apologized and was genuinely concerned with our experience. I provided the feedback that the tenders were too salty and that I expected something more fresh. The manager graciously took our feedback and offered to get other items made for us. She also offered some cinnamon rolls but we declined. We were sent away with sincere apologies and some cards for complimentary cinnamon rolls. This establishment was still pretty new when we went and was still probably working out their logistics and experimenting with the menu. Hopefully one day we can come back and try something else in the future. I will edit my review once I can give it another review. read more

Went for breakfast this morning. Have been by this establishment many times. Nice breakfast place and very good service.

I thought all diner coffee was about the same. "Not so" said the cracked egg with their delicious Guatemalan blend. (Which you can purchase to take home) I generally prefer espresso and other coffees, but wow. This is enjoyable sweetened or not. Next is the food! These omelets are FLUFFY. I have had some sad omelettes. Here they hook you up. I took out the onions and it got no smaller. It was STUFFED with probably half a bag of spinach leaves and almost a whole crisp green pepper. The potatoes might have been my favorite part. Not oily, not raw, just amazing. Lastly the pineapple pancakes that they "accidentally " made a bit too big. Bites with pineapple tasted exactly like the cake they were designed after. The boyfriend that the green Chile on his omelet was great as well and the meat was soo tender you could hardly tell it was there. I think we have a new favorite breakfast spot! read more
