Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Eggspectation in Charlotte excels in brunch offerings with "fantastic food" and "great customer service." Guests consistently praise the "scrumptious" meals, especially the chicken and waffles, shrimp and grits, and breakfast tacos. While dinner service sometimes falls short, the "clean and beautiful" ambiance and attentive staff make it a breakfast favorite.

    Dinner on a Sunday evening. In all, this place can’t seem to get dinner service right. This is the 2nd time we’ve been for dinner, and it’s always the same. The restaurant was empty. The waitstaff and the kitchen made a lot of unnecessary mistakes (it’s not like there was a dinner rush). We felt like we were having to constantly ask the server for something else. The blackened salmon was dry and not flavorful. The avocado on the mixed greens salad was spotted and aging. The Nashville hot chicken sandwich was dry and flavorless. The bun for the chicken sandwich was stale and hard. Stick to this place for brunch, or maybe if you want breakfast for dinner.

    6 of us came for Mothers Day dinner. Service was good but food took forever to come out. It was after 6 pm so the restaurant wasn’t super busy so that was surprising. When food finally came out, 5 of our meals were very very good but my husband who ordered the lamb and eggs said the lamb was tough and was not prepared well. It was a $38 dish that he didn’t really even eat and just ate the eggs. When the bill came out it was around $230, which was pretty expensive considering there was only one glass of house wine and no other alcohol. I was taken back by the fact that they put a 20% tip automatically on the bill for a “large group”. Since when is 6 people a “large group”? Also, the waitress never mentioned it, and if I didn’t actually scroll all the way to the cc machine to look at everything, I would have ended up double tipping (which I’m sure a lot of people end up doing unknowingly).

    Do not come here on a holiday like we did on Mother’s Day. We have been here several times for breakfast but never tried Eggspectations for dinner. They were out of so many things. After looking over the menu we asked to start with garlic bread but were informed they we out of bread, the garlic bread, their famous gooey bread, and could not make any of the pizzas. We ordered and 15 minutes later our server returned to let us know they were out of the carrots that go with the schnitzel and could they substitute asparagus. The asparagus was not well prepared and was a poor sub! Our server was attentive although very busy and kept the water and tea glass filled. We we will be back for breakfast but we will avoid a holiday!

    Great experience at Eggspectation! From the moment we walked in, the staff was warm, welcoming, and attentive without being overbearing. The service was prompt and professional. The food was equally impressive—fresh and flavorful. Great breakfast menu. Highly recommended!

    This is the first time at this location. We had a reservation so we were seated right away. The manager greeted us and we saw him several other times during our visit. Tonya waited on us and her service was exceptional. She was fast, anticipated our needs, and even took the time to talk with us. The food was good, fast, and reasonably priced. It was Mother's Day but this place was running like a well oiled machine. I highly recommend it.

    My only negative was my food was brought out 10 minutes after my wife’s and I had to ask the server where my food was.
