About

Our goal is to maintain the highest possible standards of food quality and service in a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere. From breakfast to lunch to dinner, with family or friends, our wish is to make your visit an exceptional experience. We only take two things seriously: our food and service! You'll have a tough time choosing between our exclusive dishes: crepes, soups, salads, omelettes, pasta, steak, chicken, seafood, sandwiches, or our famous Eggs Benedict and fresh squeezed orange juice!

At Eggspectation, we give you plenty of space in a warm and a welcoming ambiance, and you are always comfortably seated. Our upscale interior decor includes colourful murals, rustic cement columns, stone and brick walls, and an open kitchen. Private meeting rooms featuring a flat-screen TV and Wi-Fi are available in some restaurants. Three qualities are essential to work at Eggspectation: you must be energetic, friendly and well trained. We are proud of our team, who treat our customers the way they would a guest in their own home—so your visit to Eggspectation is a pure joy.

I think is a decent place for brunch. In my opinion it's a bit overpriced. The breakfast options while vast are all similar. Replacement of potatoes that are the main choice for everything is relatively expensive, making all breakfast options a little less light & very heavy. The day we went the potatoes were also under seasoned. So bland potatoes with your breakfast is a disappointment. To replace the potatoes it's 6$, kinda pricy if you simply prefer lighter side. Other than that options are min 20$. That's quite pricy for the portion & I want to say limited modifications allowance. I would not mind if I could change potatoes to a salad, but otherwise kinda a let down. Drinks are good. Coffee is good. Portion size okay. It's decent place for breakfast but if I'm honest I think there are better out there for the price. That being said, you will find something you would be satisfied with on the menu for sure. Hence 4 stars. The staff was kind. Due to being busy it just takes a little while for service. I'd recommend if it's your vibe.

The brunch was mediocre. It wasn't anything special, but it wasn't bad either.

Eggspectation restaurant truly impressed us! We savored their Eggs Benedict with salmon, & it was simply delightful. The poached eggs were perfectly cooked, & the hollandaise sauce was creamy perfection. The salmon added a wonderful richness to the dish. Our taste buds were in for a treat! Eggspectation provides a delightful brunch experience that's hard to forget.
