I'm a breakfast junkie. If runny eggs and pancakes were a drug I would be serving a life prison sentence right now and cooking contraband fried eggs with my moonshine.
I've known the Cracked Egg was there, but I was sticking to what I knew. Alternatives in the area include the stellar fine dining of IHOP or Mimi's Cafe. I'm pretty sure those two places also serve as alternatives for nursing home field trips on the weekends.
We actually tried the Cracked Egg on the recommendation of a friend, which is funny since we don't actually have any friends. That is how good it is.
I like the portions and the food is much higher quality than IHOP. You can literally taste chicken suffering in IHOP's eggs, so the eggs with slightly fewer injected hormones are refreshing and appreciated by both my digestive system and my delicate pallet. The food has been good every time I've visited the Cracked Egg.
They also have a rewards card you can get and add to your ridiculous reward card collection, and they will send you a pretty good $8 coupon each month. It actually turns out cheaper than another breakfast place even without the coupon. And I enjoy it more, so it's a win either way. Except for my digestive system because it doesn't know me and it doesn't understand my life.
I gave 4 stars instead of 5 only because their service is sometimes on the "ignoring you" level of bad. I expect a minimum of mediocre service every time because I am such a demanding customer and stuff.
