Editorial Review for Egg Platter – by Eric Vician

The Scene
There's no other place like it. It's such a dive you have to laugh, but it's so cool you've got to keep going back. As soon as you walk in and see the wall-to-wall air-brushed pictures of chickens laying eggs, you know what kind of place you're in. Most of the regulars sit at the bar, drink their coffee and read the morning paper while bantering with the servers. But here's a hint: Don't be afraid to sit there when you absolutely have to have some grub on those extra crowded days.

The Food
The theme is big plates served quickly for a small price. Perfect for the poor college student or the guy who wants to treat a big party. The cooks will put just about anything in an omelette, and the French toast slices are thick and plentiful. The Platter offers non-breakfast items, but we say don't bother.

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

09/28/2006 Posted by lordan3712

My husband and I love to go to the Egg Platter at any time of day. There breakfast menu is the greatest and the waitress Breeze will never let your coffee cup or iced tea glass get low. The only bad thing about going there in the morning is that you are so stuffed by the time you leave that you want to go back home and go back to bed. There omelets and pancakes are my favorite. Breeze will also take good care of you at lunch time. My favorite is the chicken philly sandwich with onion rings. For dinner you can't beat there meals which comes with jello or rice pudding for desert. Susan always takes good care of us no matter how busy they are. The prices are cheap, cheap, cheap and you can always guarantee to bring atleast half of your food home for the next day. I have never had a bad meal or service in the 8 1/2 years that I have been gong there. I love that they are open 24/7 and it is always nice to go there especially on Christmas morning with the whole family. I would highly recommend it anytime of day.

Pros: lots of parking..never have to wait more than a few minutes to be seated

Cons: haven't found any yet!!!!

The ratings must have been made by the owner and employees - not too many people would consider this a recommended place. Below average everything!

Pros: no smoking

Cons: Greasy, Lower class place, cheap
