| - Tried Egg 'n JOE out this morning, a busy rainy Sunday. I called ahead to see how long the wait was and was able to get our name on the list- major score. We were quickly seated and our waitress arrived within minutes to take our drink order, giving us time to look over the menu.
The menu is a glossy affair with high quality imagery of many of the dishes. I appreciate that the pictures were professional AND the food actually looked like the pictures. The clean white background made everything pop and easy to find.
We both had crepes, the blueberry banana and a strawberry crepe. You get two crepes per order, made with fresh fruit, whipped cream PLUS two eggs and choice of meat for roughly $10.50 per order. It's a lot of food. The food came out relatively quickly, nicely presented, eggs perfectly cooked. The bacon was crispy and not greasy. My only complaint was that the chicken apple sausage was cold. It had good flavor, wasn't sweet like some apple sausage, just could have been hot or at least warm.
The menu has a nice selection of omelettes, Benedicts, waffles, pancakes, crepes and other traditional breakfast meals. Egg 'n Joe is doing a nice job turning out food that may be more costly than Denny's, but it really isn't competing in that category. It is fresher and better prepared. We will be back, especially knowing we can call ahead and get on the wait list!
