Eggceptional Cafe Breakfast & Lunch in Illinois

"My family visited this weekend, and had a pretty good time. To start, we ordered a few coffees from their specials. They were pretty good, if a little simple. Our server, Brook, did an amazing job though, checking in just often enough without being overbearing. I ordered the Chipotle Burger (though I added a fried egg as that is my preference) and although this is absolutely not a burger place it was quite delicious. My older sibling ordered the California Crepas, and, while admitting it was not exactly her cup of tea, noted the use of sweet batter rather than savory to be a strange choice, which I agree with, but aside from that I enjoyed it. My younger sibling ordered the Avocado Toast, which certainly had a bit more than avocado and toast (which is not a complaint) but I am told was great as well. The Irish Skillet, on the other hand, was generally agreed by our table to be a bit on the plain side, lacking many ingredients that typically make up a good Irish Skillet. I heard no complaints from C (who has asked to remain anonymous) about the Country-Fried Steak & Biscuit, and he recommended it highly. The decor is a bit of a hodge-podge, though I won't deny it has it's charm. It's very "mellenial" in style, if that makes any sense. The tables definitely need work, as one of ours was wobbly, and they all looked more like something you'd find at a bar than a dedicated restaurant. Overall, though, the experience was pleasant, with good food and drinks, great service, and passable atmosphere. I would certainly dine here again if I'm in the area."

"Great place!! Service was great, portions were wonderful, and a very nice atmosphere. Definitely a "Breakfast Vibe". We wil be back!!"

"Came in about a week ago and it is a beautiful place. Amazing food and amazing service! Emily was our server and she was so sweet and attentive to us, would definitely come back!"

"Great atmosphere, good service and food. The pancakes were a little dense but the crepes (with egg whites, spinach, avocado and tomato) were so yummy. The coffee is a little pricey (something close to $4). Overall, nice breakfast slot."

"The food was delicious. My sister is vegetarian and they had items on their menu for her. Service was excellent and the restaurant had a nice atmosphere."

"The food was so good and came fast! I had blueberry waffle at a different restaurant recently and it was cold and the blueberries were still frozen. The waffle here was great and the berries are fresh. Fries and hashbrowns were crispy and delicious. Ask for Dean as your server he was so nice and attentive. 10/10"

"First timer coming to eat here with the family. Service was great, food was amazing as well! Huge portions and taste to go with it! Keep up the great work!"

"Stopped by this breakfast spot and had a fantastic experience! I ordered the berry French toast, and it was absolutely delicious but what really made the experience was our server, Dean. Super friendly, super attentive, and just had a great vibe overall. You can tell he actually cares about making sure people have a good time. Honestly, Dean alone is a reason to come back—good service makes all the difference, and he nailed it. Will definitely be back!"
