| - Review - Egg & I
If I were looking for a reason to move to Las Vegas the Egg & I would be the reason. Funny thing to say when speaking about a location that has something to offer for everyone and a few of the best dining experiences that money can buy.
The Egg & I is simply a great place to enjoy breakfast and that's because it is simple. Everyone who knows me knows that I love breakfast and can almost always be found at my favorite breakfast place in Corona, CA every Saturday morning without fail.
The Egg & I is a place that locals visit and has a lot of regulars. It's located in a small strip mall that is way off the strip. The interior is what you would expect in a diner that intended for locals. It's a large open space with lots of tables and country-ish decorations on the walls
The menu is consists of many different egg dishes, pancakes, waffles and some incredible looking skillets. On my first visit I tried the Works Omelet, which as you would expect has a list of ingredients including bacon, sausage, ham, onions, tomatoes, green bell peppers, mushrooms, cheese and sour cream. It is served with Habla Diablo seasoned potatoes and a choice of toast or a house made banana nut muffin.
The omelet was cooked to perfection. It was served hot, light and fluffy. The cacophony of ingredients came together to form the perfect symphony of deliciousness. My preference for breakfast potatoes is hash browns. I love them! The Habla Diablo potatoes were a treat and a nice departure from the hash brown rut I'd been in. The high point of the meal was however was the banana nut muffin(s). They serve one almost like an appetizer when sit down before you order. You get a free one with a Yelp check in. It told our waitress, Chance (awesome Las Vegas name) how much I liked them and she sent me home with a couple of extra. Bless her! I'm not a huge fan of bananas. In fact I hate everything about them but the banana nut muffins here changed my mind. It's worth a trip to Egg & I just for muffins.
To summarize, great food, fun local ambience, extremely friendly staff. I'd repeat and repeat and repeat and repeat...
