    Great service, quite a wide selection of breakfast and delicious food, with decent prices. A great place to stop and get something quick and filling, which was exactly why we stopped there both days during our trip to Arizona.

    The food came out quick and hot, the protein pancakes were a little dry the first day, but the husband raved about the pastrami sandwich. I liked the Eggs Benedict the next day, and the potatoes were delicious on the side.

    Overall, great place for a quick bite, as long as the wait isn't too long.

    Yummy yummy and yummy!  I was excited to see a variety of veggie options (besides pancakes).  I enjoyed the Veggie Benedict, very delicious.  My son enjoyed the "dollar pancakes" from the kids menu which are not dollar sized, they're normal sized pancakes and it comes with 3!  An absolute steal at only $4.99. My husband had the Denver omelette, he said it was pretty good not great, but not bad.  My mom enjoyed the Blueberry waffles, and she said they were amazing!  I liked that they had fresh blueberries on top, not just blueberry pie filling like you find at some places.

    Prices are not cheap, but in my opinion very reasonable.  My only real complaint is the service was terrible.  We were in slightly before the rush, by the time we left there was a wait but none when we came in.  I was disappointed that our server couldn't keep drinks filled.  The topper was when she dumped creamer on our table and just brought extra napkins.  Didn't wipe it up, didn't even really apologize to my husband who she dumped it in front of. Luckily he got out of the way of wearing it.  

    We'll be back, but I really hope the service improves next time.

    Very disappointed with brunch here. I ordered the eggs benedict.  The eggs were overcooked (cooked all the way through, no running yolk), and they used very little hollandaise sauce. If a restaurant with the word "egg" in its name cannot make a decent eggs benedict, you know it's a bad restaurant.  The two other people I was with got different egg dishes and were similarly disappointed.   Needless to say, I will not be returning.

    I once had a guy take me on a date here because he loved the food so much.  I had never been, and though the relationship with that guy didn't work out, I don't think my love for U.S. Egg's Protein Pancakes will ever fizzle.  
    The atmosphere is nothing to write home about, but the staff is always extremely friendly and service is pretty timely.  Portions are quite large, but the menu is a tad on the expensive side for a breakfast place.  If you're going for anything other than pancakes or waffles, especially egg dishes, it can be a game of roulette with the quality, but I've never been disappointed.

    I like this place.  I have only been here twice because it normally has a long wait on the weekends but each time I have really liked what I got. Both times I have go the Eggs Benedict and loved it both times!  My husband loves this place because of their poached eggs.  The coffee was decent here too and the service is OK.  When I went there were not many people in and I do not think the service was amazing, it could shave been better but I was not left alone.  They are also one of the FEW locations in town where you can buy a news paper form the outside box thing.

    Boom Susan!!! This place is solid. Ordered up 2 poached eggs extra crispy bacon, hash browns and toast. Everything was cooked perfect and the service was on point. Only complaint is that it's a little pricey but then again you get what you pay for.

    Breakfast...  a leisurely one is a great way to start a weekend.  On a recent Saturday morning, my friend and I stopped by U.S. Egg in search of a favorite breakfast indulgence - Eggs Benedict.

    We were seated promptly, and our friendly waitress highly recommended both the Eggs Benedict (for me) and a slight variation, the California Benedict (including bacon and avocado), for her.  

    Both dishes looked great when they arrived, and even included a nice side of hash browns.  However, the letdown was immediate when I cut in to my first egg.  The yolk was... solid!  No delightfully runny goodness to mix with the hollandaise.  My friend's eggs were overdone as well.  What happened?  My guess is the dishes sat a bit too long under a heat lamp after being plated.  So disappointing.  :(

    I may give U.S. Egg another try, as a number of other menu items looked tempting.  The restaurant was bright and inviting, and the service was quick and friendly.  Still, how can you serve Eggs Benedict with overcooked yolks!?

    Great breakfast but not a cheap one.  Lots of options.  They claim their 'protein pancakes' are what they are famous for...bad sales pitch in my mind.  They are average at best and if you love normal pancakes, these will stink.  Go with something else on the menu...lots of options and everything else I've had has been good.

    Wow... time flies when you're having fun.  I just realized I haven't updated my review for U.S. Egg in over two years, so the below is long overdue.  And just because I'm feeling creative today, here's a little something I wrote in honor of U.S. Egg:

    U - ultimate place to go for a delicious breakfast
    S - super friendly staff

    E - eggs, pancakes, waffles, and so much more!
    G - giant portions
    G - grateful... that's how I feel about having this place so close to home!

    I was reminded of how much I enjoy this place after our delightful breakfast this morning.  There was a less than five minute wait to sit down, but the hostess brought me an OJ while I waited which made me very happy!  Once seated, our waitress came over to help us navigate the menu... it had been awhile since our last visit.  Per her recommendation, I went with a half order of the blueberry whole wheat pancakes and a side of egg whites.  A half order is plenty for one person fyi - it comes with a pancake as big as your plate!  It was delicious! J had coffee and a 2 egg breakfast with english muffin and hashbrowns.

    I love that they leave a pitcher of water and a carafe of coffee at your table... and fyi this place has plenty of lunch options as well.  If you're looking for a casual place that is consistently good, head over to U.S. Egg... I have to remember to do so more often!

    I had driven by here a few times and notices the sign and the reviews when checking it out on yelp, so when I happened to be in the area, during their business hours, and hadnt had breakfast, the serendipity angels smiled upon me.

    Short wait, but packed (good sign).  Great service, cute waitresses, nice menu offering.  Then got the food - eggs overcooked, bacon, sausage.  Kind of was looking for "better than Denny's" but got "kinda worse than.". Maybe the natives are missing a "flavor gene" or something.  Just "meh."

    The "Protein Pancakes" are always a treat, but the "California Eggs Benedict" was just awful today.  The biggest disappointment were the hash browns though.  They tasted like shredded cardboard.  I am tired of going to a restaurant 20 to 30 times and getting such inconsistent results.

    Shame on you US Egg!

    I have driven by US Eggs several times on my way in or out of Old Town Scottsdale.  US Eggs has to have one of the tallest buildings I have ever seen for a restaurant.  One morning, I decided to give it a shot.  I did a little research on Yelp, and I saw that people enjoyed the protein pancakes.  I eat quite a bit of protein supplements, so I was wondering if they somehow infused whey protein powder into the pancake batter.  It actually has fresh blueberries, cinnamon, and almonds.  I think the batter had whole grain wheat.  I decided to go with the half and half, which gave me 2 mini protein pancakes (humongous) and an Idaho Skillet that came with potatoes, your choice of 1 egg, and a type of sauce such as Cajun spices, Santa Fe, or various other assortments.  Each of my friends got the same dish, but with different skillet sauces.  We enjoyed the Cajun, Santa Fe, and chicken avocado.

    The best part of the experience is that you definitely get your money's worth.  If you ever have a hard workout or are extremely hungry, come to US Eggs for a power-packed breakfast.

    I've been to this U.S. Egg three or four times. The service is good, the food quality good, and the portions adequate, but I find the prices a little high. $9 for one egg/sausage sandwich with a small bowl of cottage cheese is pricey. The same price for a fruit plate, but they bring you half a melon (you cut it yourself). I'd rather half half the food they put on my plate for half the price. You can't take home and reheat eggs so it's stuff it all in or waste it.

    The wait line can be unbearably long on weekend mornings. So long that one time we walked across the street to Denny's instead of waiting in line at U.S. Egg.

    But, I'll have to say that this is one of my  first choices of sit down and wait to be served places to have brunch so I know I'll be back.

    This place is delicious.  Five of us went for breakfast after running the AZ Urban Race and it was exactly what we needed.  Huge menu and the food was great.  I heart breakfast food!  The prices are slightly pricey for a breakfast menu but nothing unreasonable.  Plus - you get a LOT of food.

    The atmosphere was clean and bright, which I appreciate for a breakfast joint. I would say the food...well, it fell short. I ordered the blueberry pancakes, bacon, and fruit plate.

    The pancakes were tasty but a little bland, even with syrup. The fruit plate looked a little old and the bacon was dry, perhaps baked instead of fried. Also, the food wasn't that hot, which was sort of gross.

    Overall, I'd give it another shot and pick something else, but if it's still disappointing, I'd move on.

    What great place to come for a quick breakfast!  I must admit when we pulled up I saw few people waiting outside and thought and told my husband that I didn't want to go in cause there looks like a line.  But he convinced me that we should just go in.  

    We walked in and the hostess told us it would be 5-10 minutes I surprised how fast they seated us.  There was soo much to choose from on the menu, but I am such a simple girl I just wanted to egg, bacon, and potatoes, and that's what I got! And the Decaf wasn't too bad either!

    The real reason why I chose to eat here was because I read Gabi M's review who is the community manager of Scottsdale/PHX area.  The funniest thing is that just as we got our coffee a guy walked by and I noticed that it was Gabi's husband, then who should be walking behind him GABI!!! Loved that! always great to see you Gabi!!! Thanks for your review!

    Great place!

    I have to rave about this place....

    Not only are the portions HUGE, but the food is absolutely delicious.
    The boyfriend and I split the Hawkeye omelette, which has chicken, avocado, bacon, and melty cheese all in  fluffy omelette pillow.
    Not only did this save us money, but we were still stuffed.

    I can't wait to go back!

    This has become a favorite breakfast place of our little hiking group and my very good friend after yoga..=)

    US Egg has always been our number one choice to have good breakfast especially after a good workout when your body just needs more fuel for energy. This place has always people waiting outside for tables because it's always packed..which is a good sign especially for first timers that the food most especially is worth waiting for..=)
    My good friend and I, more often than not, always get our breakfast fix here with the good old American pancakes, well protein ones for my friend, crisp bacons, eggs, crispy hash brown as we like it, coffee and tea, or occasionally some corned beef hash. We also like their most recent addition, the Cornhuskers, consisting of two pancakes, two toasted bread, 2 eggs, 4 bacons, which is big enough for two people! =) Price is great for the amount of food you shell out for..This is our little spot after working out in the morning and we will never get tired of going here. So happy that we have this locally owned restaurant that serves good food! =)

    My boyfriend and I found ourselves driving through the area this morning and looked up a breakfast spot on yelp. He said U.S. Egg sounding promising so we headed there. Based on what we read we made sure to get an order of the protein pancakes, along with a breakfast burrito and a customized skillet. The coffee was better than average, and I like how they leave a pitcher of water at the table for you to refill as needed.

    The pancakes are interesting to say the least. You feel like you're eating something healthy and at the same time shouldn't be tasting that good but it is. Then you get a bite of granola like there is oatmeal or something also in the mix, finally to top it off sweet blueberries inside. They give you syrup to pour on but we found that the pancakes were wonderful and didn't need to be drowned in liquid sugar, just a drizzle here and there worked best.

    As for the burrito and skillet, you can tell this place really uses fresh ingredients because the flavors are top notch. I ordered avocado on my skillet and instead of two or three skimpy slices there was a generous half, not to mention perfectly ripe.

    Our waitress was attentive but not aggressive.

    Can't wait to come back to try more items!

    I don't know why this place have 4 stars but I guess some people like their eggs, bread and pancakes served lukewarm...

    For me, this place is best at 3 stars just to be nice.

    I'm sorry for all those U.S egg fans out there but I take my breakfast seriously. My breakfast better be hot or you will get a very grump attitude from me! I thought hot breakfast should be a no brainer?? Unfortunately, I guess I have to request it to be hot and fresh out of the pan and not to expect that a place that serve solidly on breakfast should know any better. Oh I am sorry you don't serve solidly on breakfast?? Then you probably should take the word eggs out because you don't take your eggs seriously! Serve it hot or don't serve it at all!!!

    This place was great and had a large menu.  Ordered off their low carb menu section and it was delicious.  Service was quick and food came out REALLY fast!  My girlfriend and I both had different omelettes and they were great, but it was hard to choose because all their low carb stuff looked delicious and they had lots of specials too.  Great breakfast place!

    Everything that is bad about a breakfast place in one spot!

    1) Overpriced...2 eggs, toast &  sausage for my mom and I had a pumpkin waffle for a total bill of $22 + oh we did have coffee too. That seems like a lot to me.

    2) The food was cold and the waitress never came by to ask how it was so we could not tell her about it.  What was worse was that she was "training" some new girl.  Good luck with that.

    3) When we flagged her down to comment on the cold food we were 75% finished so what was the point.  I saw her talk to the manager about it, but nothing was done.  She offered to replace it, but I don't want more cold food.

    4) When we left the manager who was told about our cold food was the one who checked us out, never asked how it was since he didn't want to hear about the complaint...can you say "CHICKEN SHIT?"

    Save your self some money and headaches and just go to Denny's get twice as much food for half the $$...

    I ate here on consecutive days early in the morning.  US Egg opens at 6:30 AM.  The charming hostess cheerfully greeted me the first day and the owner greeted me the next day.

    I ordered the wonderful french toast the first day and was greeted with the wonderful smell of cinnamon on top of the perfectly prepared breakfast.  The hostess and the waitress came by to check to see how I was doing.

    I ordered the traditional breakfast the next day consisting of two eggs over easy, four sausages, potatoes and an English muffin.  

    I will come here again, maybe for lunch.

    This place is just alright.

    Prior to my sister's graduation, we stopped at US Egg, so my sister can grab breakfast with her classmates. When we were seated, there was still a pitcher of water, from the previous party, along with some trash that sat there for a good 10 minutes, before someone cleaned it off.

    Not long after the table was cleaned off, our waitress quickly got our drinks and food ordered. But, when the food was delivered, the main server directed the other server to put a plate of food in front of mom, but she gives it to my dad instead and just walked away, leaving our poor waitress to make the switch.

    Food portions are huge, so well worth your bang for your buck. I loved my cornbeef and hash dish. Unfortunately, a few of the staff's customer service skills could use some improvement.

    Half and Half was a great name for my dish, because that's all I could eat of each item: two mini protein pancakes, which were excellent, and half an order of any of their Idaho (potato) skillets, plus an egg any style.  I got the skillet with bacon, chicken, avocado and tomato, all topped with cheese. Whoa nelly, to quote Hari B. (in an unrelated review) :)  Everything was delicious (except for the FMS--fake maple syrup).  And lightning fast service!  Quarter and Quarter would have been a perfect size for me. :)

    First of all, let me say, my wife and I love this place.  It's our local go-to spot for breakfast or brunch.  However, if you go anytime before 11am, expect to wait a solid 15 minutes or so for a table.  They're busy, because they're popular, but they also staff the restaurant well, so the wait isn't as long as it could be if it weren't staffed as well.  The servers aren't overly friendly or conversational, but I think that goes back to the fact that they are so busy in the mornings.  I give them a pass because the food and prices are so legit.

    Without fail, my wife and I always order the Protein Pancakes with a side of eggs.  We don't typically get into ruts like that, because we like to try new things, but you CAN'T beat these pancakes!  Try them.  You're welcome.

    Waffle me!!!  Great place for brunch but sometimes you will have to wait.  I have never had any complaints about the food or service.  Food comes out fast and hot.  The staff are helpful and very welcoming.  Ask for Rachel....she's the best!  I do love their breakfast potatoes.  The waffle with strawberries was the waffle fix I needed.  They have everything you could possibly want for breakfast or lunch.  Every time I go in I have a hard time deciding on what to eat but I am never disappointed.  Is it breakfast time?

    They are delish!! This is one of my favorite breakfast spots in town. Everything on the menu looks great, but every time I tell myself I will venture and order something different... I can't. I guess thats a good problem to have :)

    P.S. They are ginormous so plan on sharing or taking some home for later.

    Here we have a very unfortunate situation:

    5 Star Food.. 2 - 3 Star Service

    The "hosts" at the front were really unfriendly /unwelcoming and when Julia T asked where the bike rack was, they just stared at here like she had just thrown down a cardboard box and was breakin like she was an Electric Boogaloo.

    We sat out on the patio, which was lovely, until a group of women were seated next to us. I think they forgot to shower and decided that they should overload themselves with perfume. We were literally gagging throughout our meal. Obviously not US EGG's fault, but it made for a worse time.

    I was debating a hot skillet and the protein pancakes and I almost ordered both until I happened to see the half-and-half. It was like heaven shone a light right onto this menu for me and created exactly what I wanted. Perfect!

    My food was perfect. My two dining partners, however, received limp, soggy bacon. Nobody wants limp, soggy bacon... so Max makes mention and asks for more bacon. The lady actually charged him as a side, despite the fact that his original bacon was inedible. Um, Wha?!? When she brought the bill he disputed it and she got it removed, but it never should have been there in the first place.

    Finally, the bathrooms there are not good. They smell bad and there were paper towels laying all over the place. I hate a dirty bathroom.

    I will give this location another chance, but I will sit inside. If the service still bites, I will just go to the location on Baseline because I cannot stay away from the protein pancakes for too long!!

    The question, of course, is: What do you order at a place named U.S. Egg? A hamburger, right? Right.  In doing so, you'll get to devour one of the best burgers to be found in downtown Scottsdale.

    The second version of this two-store operation (the first is in Tempe) offers terrific breakfast and lunch grub at reasonable prices. I've had the eggs and all that. They're good, too. And, I suspect, most people come for breakfast rather than lunch. But if you're steering your car into the neighboring Red Lobster or Olive Garden, or, for goodness sake, Denny's to stuff yourself full of corporate crap, stop. Do yourself a favor and pull into the U.S. Egg. Or do other people a favor and park in the Red Lobster/Olive Garden lot and go to U.S. Egg. Perhaps the lot will, with your help, fill up and terrible eating disasters will be avoided.

    Anyway, U.S. Egg has burgers, sandwiches, eggs, pancakes and all that stuff. They're open everyday until 2:30 p.m. Seating was speedy as was the friendly, helpful service during our visit. The atmosphere is mellow and the two-seat booths offer a coziness not found at other joints. It's easy to overlook this place, for whatever reason. Stick it in the back of your mind and try it out someday. I think you'll be happy you did.

    * You'll find the menu, hours, addresses and other such information on the website.

    Solid brunch place!  Good service, very clean, and inexpensive, to boot!

    Even though I had a pretty plain item - pancakes, eggs, and potatoes, it was all very good.  Highly recommend the protein pancakes, which have oats and blueberries! They were super delicious, and had a nice, fluffy, texture.

    Even though I was the only person who ordered ice tea, they brought a whole pitcher so I could refill at my every whim, which was often, because Arizona is friggin DRY and I wasn't used to it!

    Minus one star because there's nothing extraordinary on the menu (no unique specials or anything), but everything was delciious.

    This breakfast/lunch spot gets it right every time. There is usually a wait since this place gets overrun fast on the weekends by hungover party people and old men doing the crossword puzzles at their table. Nonetheless I've never had to wait more than 10 minutes for a table. The waitresses are friendly and cute and hey let's admit that is a perk.

    On my last visit I ordered a b'fast burrito minus ham and my husband ordered the California eggs Benedict (I think that was the name) with avocado and bacon. Our food came out fast and was delicious and way more food than I could possible eat. We both saved 1/2 our meals for lunch.

    Overall this is just a solid breakfast option. The food isn't mind blowing but it is a safe bet, which is always a good choice for the most important meal of the day.

    The wait wasn't bad for a Sunday morning. Maybe 5-8 mins. The french toast was awesome. I also liked the ham n cheese omelet but the wiffy thought the hams were cut to big. We like that they give us pitcher of either water or ice tea so we don't have to wait for refills. Servers was good and the food came out within 10 mins of ordering it.

    Wow, while I'm writing this, the place has gotten super busy with a nice wait. Thank god we beat it. We got here at 10am.

    We'll be back next time we visit Scottsdale.

    Solid 4 stars every time!   The Protein pancakes are a favorite for a good reason.   They're great and filling with the right kind of ingredients.   I recommend the 1/2 and 1/2 which is two good sized protein pancakes with 1/2 a skillet variety and one egg.  Their iced tea is decent and we've always had service that was at least better than average.   Easy to find and reasonable prices.   Winner!  (Now why they are listed under 'Burgers' instead of breakfast, well who knows.)

    Goodness gracious alive, do I ever love this place.

    I head out to U.S. Egg a couple of Sundays a month with my roomie and her pops.  We are seated speedily, and any number of leggy beauties are at our beck and call for the entirety of our stay.  The owner is gracious, and the waitresses are perpetually smiling.  The vibe is light.

    The clientele runs from old folks to hipsters to the hangover crowd.  The menu has quite a bit to choose from, but I always have the spinach florentine (try it; i promise you won't regret it).   I've heard tell that the veggie benedict and eggs over easy are remarkable, as well.  

    Servers leave a pitcher of ice cold water with us as we eat--they don't pester us or rush us or hint that we need to leave, even when our conversations run long.  I can't think of a better place to get breakfast.

    Love this place.  Family owned since 1991 it says on the menu, and a nice clean place with some outdoor seating too.  Almost too clean, but I guess it's better to be that way than too dirty.

    I had the Texas Omlette with Chili that was a good option.  Add a bit of Tabasco for kick and it's perfect.  Sitting outside under the deck and read the New York Times - was not rushed, but service was also attentive.

    Good local joint for breakfast!

    I'm not a huge pancake fan.  They have to be really good for me to eat them.  Today, I found a pancake I love!  The protein pancakes are great!  All U.S. Egg's pancakes are made with whole wheat but the protein pancakes also pack in granola and almond slivers.  It sounds too grainy but it's not.  They are SO wonderful.  

    I also love that they bring you a pitcher of iced water and a carafe of coffee.  I hate when waitresses refill my coffee to soon and mess up my "blend" of cream and sugar.  I also hate when I can't get anyone to fill my cup.  So, this was a nice perk (ha, pun intended).  

    This place has a great variety at reasonable prices.  I'll definitely come back here the next time I visit Scottsdale.
