    Had a wonderful breakfast here with family. Definitely recommend reservations! Our group had a variety of foods: eggs Benedict, omelet, eggs, granola and coffee cake. The hash browns were amazing. And the coffee cake that day was basically chocolate cake but sooo yummy. Definitely will be back.

    The food was excellent and well prepared. We had the classic eggs, Benedict, prepared with pulled him, which was really good, and Hoppel Poppell which is like an egg skillet dish. My daughter loved it. We also tried the honey vanilla latte which was very smooth and we both really enjoyed it. The only reason I gave it for stars was because our breakfast was $49 for two people. We didn’t even order their famous monkey bread. I know inflation is going on and eggs are expensive right now, but this seems overly inflated. I will definitely be back, but for special occasions only unless their prices come down.

    The service was really off today, from the front desk to the waiter. There was no sense that the front staff cared above it a mix up, or the length of time we had to wait. The waiter was very nice, but seemed out of it. Some of the food was served wrong, with no recognition from the waiter. When pointed out, he acknowledged that a mistake had been made. Three out of four of us had food that was ok. The corned beef hash was 80% potatoes, with a little corned beef. It was not seasoned very well. Perhaps it just comes down to personal preference. Given all the places to get brunch, I think I’ll try a different restaurant next time. The restaurant was very busy and I don’t think the front staff cared at all.

    Chicken Cordon Bleu was very good. But didn't have enough sauce. I had to ask for extra sauce twice. Staff was very friendly. I forgot to try to desserts. They are behind the counter when you walk in. I'll have to go back for those.

    Service only mediocre, had to keep asking for coffee and cream. Ham and cheese omelette had very little ham, sad, because one of my favorite items is the pulled ham. Drive 45+ minutes to come here and probably won't return.

    We had a lovely brunch here. They are very accommodating to Celiac/GF sensitivities. The GF bread was so amazing I bought a loaf. Even my non-GF husband loves it. Make a reservation, order more and take it home - it's that yummy. Lively and loud good for morning conversations with loved ones and friends. We will be back.

    We always enjoy the food & great service at Blues egg , but this time one person in our group has celiac disease and needed help ordering. Our server was fantastic. She was very knowledgeable and even knew which sauces were gluten free. We were all very impressed. They even make their own gluten free bread in house that our family member found very delicious. We will be back :)

    I have always responded with great reviews in the past but I was dissatisfied that I was charged for a birthday roll that I did not order. We brought flowers for our friend’s birthday who was dining with us. We did not request any special consideration for her birthday nor were we aware that a special birthday roll was even available. Our server brought a lighted bun to our table which we thought was being provided gratis for her birthday. I noticed that the cost of it was added to the bill. The money is not the issue but it was unsettling and unfair that we were charged for something that we did not request. I was in a hurry to leave as I am responsible for picking up a grandchild from school and also did not want to make a fuss in front of the birthday person so I let it go unchallenged. I am very disappointed in this practice. It is unfair.
