| - I wanted to like this place! I was expecting at least on par with The Cracked Egg (our usual breakfast joint) or Egg & I or even the awesome Babystacks in Summerlin. Wanted to try something new, but Daily Egg was not at all what I had hoped. With a 4-star Yelp rating, you come to have a certain expectation. Feeling misled here. And it was the "last morning in Vegas" breakfast with my BFF. :-(
Service: she spent more time on her phone than paying attention to the two seated tables in the place. Would disappear for extended periods, leaving us looking at our empty coffee cups. Odd to notice there were no spoons at any of the table settings throughout the entire resto. Ok, I can stir my coffee with a knife, but goes to show...
Snow White Omelet: watery, no flavor. Hash browns: no other flavor besides the food industry grease they use. Huge pancake (paid $1 extra for the lemon poppyseed) - tasted nothing of lemon, and in fact had no discernable flavor - it is a thin disc of gummy white flour nothingness. Tennis ball sized scoop of butter atop the flour frisbee: also *no flavor!* - not even the butter tasted like anything. Worst of all, the coffee. I had such a bad taste in my mouth by the time this breakfast was over, I reached for my Altoids tin first thing after getting in my car. Guessing their whole menu's stock comes from a commercial food industry supplier - easily-supplied mass packaged "food product" chosen over quality and flavor. Ick. I mean, this wasn't even greasy-spoon-diner "good."
My BFF had eggs and hash, he finished it, also hated the coffee, and took one bite of his pancake, and left it.
$30 for this lame breakfast, when we could have had a memorable breakfast at any of the other three stellar places mentioned above. This is one of those times when trying a new place didn't pan out.
Breakfast bummer.
