Overall the consensus is that Eggspectation provides a dependable brunch and breakfast experience with generous portions, diverse choices, and a warm, energetic setting that draws repeat visits from locals and travelers alike, though it may not meet every expectation and can be busy or pricey at times.
Love this place! Food was amazing & the service was great. The staff are very attentive to refill our coffee & water. Kudos! They don't take reservations on weekends so, it would be better to come early if you don't want to wait that long.
Bonne cuisine, mais menu très peu varié pour un restaurant déjeuner. Aucune option de déjeuner à moins de 16$ & ils vous chargent le café filtre 3,50$ de plus.
We were staying at the Ace hotel & walked 5 mns to the restaurant. Had pancakes with ricotta blueberries. My wife had the bagel sandwich with potatoes. The ricotta was a bit too much for me but wanted to try it.

The food here is nothing special, not bad but not good either. Which is not great considering they mainly aim at breakfast food & that shouldn't be too hard to cook deliciously. Service was friendly, & the food come out without much of a wait. Don't expect anything special but not a bad place to stop for a quick bite.
I found this place mediocre at best. The food was yummy, but not top notch. Our waiter kept going outside to smoke & therefore was like the wind, here & gone again, taking awhile to get our bill & good service. Tho he was friendly. Best thing was our sangria, liked the rose! If you're looking for a nice comfort food breakfast place, this is it.
Super delicious! Great for families. We all loved it! Munwife & I got the eggspectation each, & my daughter got the ribeye (I had to help her finish it, lol). The staff was awesome - they told us about things to do in the city. I would totally go back there again!
Fantastic breakfast venue. The food was delicious & consistent. I ate there every morning. The service was exceptional, & I give a shout out to my serverer, Marc, who helped make my vacation so much better. Gave me tips on what to see & wear to shop. I will be returning when I am back in Montreal.
