Terrible food but wonderful service.

by CSMobileUser

The food was absolutely horrible. I got the eggd flourentine (which is my fav breakfast food) and my wife got the mama burrito. I was extremy disappointed in the food. Their hollandaise sauce didn't taste like any kind I've ever had. I, in all honesty, could have found trash from a garbage that tasted better. My wife's burrito was very bland and unappetizing. We will never be eating here again. The only saving grace was the service. Our waiter was perfect, handlebar mustache and all :) There was another young lady with a bunch of old school tattoos. She was extremely nice and very attentive even though we weren't her table. Kudos to those two. In closure, I will not be coming back and I wouldn't recommend Eggs In The City to my worst enemy.

Great service all the way around

by michaelanderson69

eggs in the city is the best breakfast in town. The service is amazing, and i felt so welcomed by the owner and waitresses. it's not every day that you have such great service. i would reccomend this so anyone that likes to wake up on a saturday morning and eat a fulfilling breakfast. the bus boy that was wearing the highland high school attire was so great, and did a great job and was so nice. It's good to know that even the worker that doesn't associate with customers as much is also trained to be so nice to the customers. I ordered the meat lovers skillet. if you are a man, you need to try this out. it is scrambled eggs, breakfast potatoes, bacon, cheddar cheese, and sausage. i also was supplied with orange juice, which was always kept full. the service was great, even on a saturday when i went. i do warn you that the place is pretty busy on the weekends, but even with the hectic environment, the service is still great, and the employees handle it well. i will come back to eggs in the city, and i reccomend it as the best breakfast food in the valley

  • Pros: meatlovers skillet and amazing service
  • Cons: gets hot inside in summer. try to sit on patio for a great summer effect

Good place to hang out, but food is inconsistent

by nate101

The food is inconsistent, depending on the cook.. and the quality of meat. At times it's so good, but other times the meat's so chewy I can't eat. Same thing with the potato. Overall, a bit more expensive than other breakfast joints in SLC - catering for the yuppies, I guess.

Disgusting, with the rudest service...

by rockerchickpc

After waiting 15 minutes to get seated on a Wednesday, while looking at 4 empty tables, we waited another 10 minutes for water, and good 15 more to order. I swear I saw the brunette waitress drop silverware on the floor, pick it back up and set it on an open table, the place seemed like a greasy mess with not the best food but, but defiantly the worst service I have ever had, I was to scared to eat my food..... who knew what else had been dropped and put back on the plate.

  • Pros: Nothing
  • Cons: Everything

Yummy and Funky

by chtaylo

I love the food and the great location, but the best part is the service. When I drag myself out of bed its nice to see friendly faces in a good mood who give great service. The girls that are usually there are so great. They always have a smile and don't just say "how's the food" as they walk by, but they actually want to know how the food and everything is. They're really good about making sure your food is just right, and if its not, getting it right. They give great recommendations if you're having a hard time choosing, and the best part for me...my water glass is always full. They are also willing to customize your food to whatever diet you might be on at the time... no carbs, all carbs, whatever! They have the best french toast in the city. Its the east coast version, which is hard to come by. Its also fun to learn about all the cool stuff around the restaurant, and the artwork is amazing. If your up for good food with amazing service, you have to check it out.

  • Pros: Great service, amazing french toast
  • Cons: Busy on the weekend

Don't miss out on this great place

by racerrobin

We were recently in SLC for 2 weeks. We were intrigued by the name as we drove by and decided to come back and check it out. We did so 4 times in the 2 weeks we were in town! Their biscuits and gravy are awesome - served with 2 eggs cooked to order that are put on top of the biscuits with cheese and then all are smothered in the wonderful gravy with chunks of sausage. Their eggs benedict is very good, too. Service is very friendly and fast. Atmosphere of eating in a converted garage is cool - nice touch to have the garage doors open to the outside seating area.

  • Pros: Food, service, atmosphere, location, cleanliness
  • Cons: Don't offer dinner

Great on a sunny day

by cupcakeyoga

Went for lunch today. The atmosphere was very sunny and indoor/outdoor seating. The menu offers breakfast (omelets, breakfast burritos, I noticed biscuits & gravy, but did not try). Had a veggie sandwich; it was pretty good, better than most, but not the best. Wasn't impressed with the bread. Breakfast potatoes were also above average, some crispy, some potatoey. Boyfriend had a burger, wasn't too big and the bread was soft (I have no opinions on that one, just an observation.) I will definitely try a Saturday/Sunday brunch. Worth going back.

hip & cool: be, and be scene

by wabenaki

i had the eggs florentine and the husband had the meat lover's special. the hollandaise on the eggs could have used some lemon and a touch of curry in it but at least it was a real sauce because it started to separate as i was almost done eating. the sausage in the meat lover's was differently spiced than one would expect but very good. the place was warm on the first 80+ day in the valley but otherwise comfy and welcoming. not sure i would want to eat there when it was super hot weather. we were seating in a primo spot outside & it was lovely. as a major side note: i know the folks in the neighgorhood hate this place because it's popular and parking overflows into the neighborhood for a few houses in either direction. emigration market is kitty corner from the restaurant and jolley'spharmacy just to the south. it might explain why there are so many houses in the area for sale. it's no reason to be rude though. not sure why they moved there in the 1st place if they didn't want to be able to be within walking distance to these amenities. the neighbors on the side street to the northeast were very rude to me. sorry i walked on the grass at the treeline bordering the street - don't block the sidewalk so people can use it [you, your wife, your exceedling cute child who you were oohhing and ahhing over as he tried to walk and did a face plant on the cement, along with another couple], put a sign up asking people to please not walk on the grass because you just put sod down [it wasn't obvious at all], or don't yell at people to get off the lush grass next to the street/parking. my choice was to walk in the street on the grass bordering it.

  • Pros: great tats on one of the waitresses
  • Cons: rude neighbors/parking
