| - When I saw this location had no reviews, I decided that was simply unacceptable.
The first time I went it was busy (as it has been every time since), so I went in and put my name in the queue. The hostess was very friendly to me and said we'd be seated shortly. I walked outside with my guest and we enjoyed some of the coffee they set out when there's a long line. A few minutes later, the server calls out over the loudspeaker and we walk in behind a couple who had just arrived.
The man who just walked in front of us walks up to the server and says, "You just called me. I'm the guy you just called." The hostess, bless her, says, "I think the gentleman right behind you might disagree."
I will tell you, the look on that jerk's face was nearly as delicious as the food here.
TGE specializes in exactly what you think it does. Salad. I mean, eggs! Eggs! I've been here many many times and while my cholesterol might not thank me, my palate does. Everything I've had has been fresh and well made. I like eggs, so I get a bit cranky when cooks overdo their omelets because they can't get them to hold together or when your over easy is over medium to over hard because, well, eggs are hard to do. I have never had anything less than excellent here.
The only reason they don't get 5 stars is because their sides are such a letdown by comparison to their eggy masterpieces. The potatoes are fine, but I've had better in greasy spoon diners back in Buffalo. All in all, I recommend it quite highly for a late breakfast/brunch. The weekends are busy and they don't take reservations then, so make sure you get there early.
