Another Broken Egg Cafe — Restaurant in Jacksonville

during my first ever visit to another broken egg cafe, i was extremely disappointed. i want to premise this by saying that the service was amazing and this review is not geared towards the service or atmosphere at all. this review is solely directed towards the food. with that said, i ordered pancakes with eggs and bacon. the eggs and bacon were delicious and i was super excited to try my pancakes. but within the first bite, i could tell something was not right. i barely chewed and i immediately tasted other food, as if the pancakes were cooked on the same surface or griddle as EVERY other dish. if every other dish was just eggs and bacon or something of that nature that can be generally cooked together without one tasting like the other, that would have been fine. but this was not the case. i had a terrible aftertaste of garlic long after i finished chewing and shallowing. i chugged milk, ate some more bacon, and it still lingered. these pancakes were genuinely the WORSE pancakes i have ever tasted and that is saying something because how does one even manage to mess up pancakes??? i almost threw up after forcing myself to shallow the only bite i had. but on the bright side, our angel of a server offered to get me something else and even gave me another cup of milk free of charge. that dish (the waffle) was delicious, just like the eggs and bacon, and i would recommend it to anyone. just stay away from the pancakes unless you are okay with a garlic and salty food aftertaste.

First time at this place. We wanted brunch and saw this place had good reviews. I don’t even understand how this place got anymore than 3 stars. We got the mimosa pitcher. The cups came with strawberries and we were like “ooo fancy.” When we looked closer, the strawberries were moldy. They had blue fuzzy mold on them. I get it was busy on a Saturday morning, but it takes 2 seconds to inspect them. The cups were stained. I did not drink anything. I’m thirsty. Everything was room temperature or cold. My friend had cold cheese on her food. The grits were lumpy and dried up top. Basically they sat underneath the heat lamp for the entire morning and the moisture was pulled out from it. It had separated from the edge of the bowl. I thought it was a fried egg white that popped into the bowl at first. I got chocolate chip pancakes and there were 5 chocolate chips sitting on top of the pancakes. Not melted. I don’t know about y’all, but the last time I checked, that’s not chocolate chip pancakes. There were also 5 chips on the second pancake smooshed in. Server was nice. That’s about it.

Summary, food was shit. Service ok. Will...

I came to this restaurant after my family told me I needed to open my palate to some more typical American breakfast cuisine (I suppose they don’t appreciate my liking towards duck egg/fetuses). Upon sitting down, I noticed that there were no broken eggs to be seen. Okay, pretty off-setting restaurant name dontchathink? Anyways, I kept committed to trying new things and decided to order a chocolate milk. As soon as my mouth touched the straw, I noticed a small alien pop into my peripheral vision. He told me that I was forever destined to eating duck eggs/fetuses, and that I needed to put the chocolate milk away immediately. I shook him off hard enough to attract the attention of multiple other patrons. My waitress looked at me like I was higher than Cheech and Chong. I told that alien that he better go back to where he came from. Needless to say, I was immediately told to leave the premises. I didn’t even get to order a single food item off the menu for crying out loud! Damn aliens always ruining something… I immediately went to my hot yoga class to cool off (ironic enough). Damn, I...
