Eggs Up Grill

Very rude. Called to ask for help making a reservation through their app and they refused to help.

Random visit to Columbia and we Visited Eggs Up on a Sunday morning. Like everyone said the line was out the door-​26 people in front but we were committed so we waited. The waitress was fantastic and the cupa-​coco was great. I got the pecan pancakes with the cinnamon syrup which was tasty (pretty sweet but good). My husband got the hashbrown omelet which was very mediocre. Hash browns were extremely salty and nothing special. The home fries were THE BOMB! They could be a bit crispier (just a preference) but FANTASTIC! Not sure if I would wait an hr again but glad we experienced it. Staff was very friendly.

Great breakfast! I had an omelette, hash browns (get them charred) and the raisin toast. The food was delightful and service was very efficient. The total bill for my Wife and I was eighteen dollars. Get there early or there may be a slight wait. My only complaint is the courtesy coffee outside was ice cold.

I’m kicking myself for not coming here sooner. It is worth the trip and the wait (which was about 30 minutes on a Sunday morning). We opted to eat at the bar counter to avoid the wait so we were able to see the staff working up close. They gave off a positive, high energy feel as they worked in harmony and exchanged pleasant small talk. Our waitress, who’s name I can’t remember, was genuinely sweet and friendly. I had the Greek omelet and my best half had the hash and eggs. And yes, their hash lives up to the hype. The Greek omelet was also great. Even the coffee was great. As a matter of fact, everything was great. Looking forward to coming again to try something else from their extensive menu :)

Their food was great, as was their service. The owner was very personable — he was even showing customers to their table! Menu had a wide variety of breakfast/​brunch/​lunch items. While their coffee was not my favorite, their apples, raisins, and egg white toast dish was very tasty! Perfect for family or group breakfast/​lunch.

I ordered the French toast, bacon, and home-​fries plate and it was served cold. The waitress was super sweet and gladly took it back to the kitchen. When she brought back my plate, it was a little warmer and they added extra bacon and home fries which was nice. But still, at best, it was lukewarm. My husbands meal was so-​so. We probably won’t be back.

This is the go-​to breakfast spot in Shandon. The service is great. Sometimes you have to wait, but there is an app for that. You can’t go wrong with their hash, an omelet, any of their eggs, or really anything on the menu. The cinnamon raisin toast as an option is a plus. The staff is very friendly and always makes sure your happy with your order

Great breakfast spot! I had the eggs benedict, which was good, nothing too special… but the home fries are soooo good! They are seasoned perfectly, I probably could have eaten an entire plate of them. They have a home fry platter, which I will likely get the next time! lol
One thing to be aware of: the servers place the order using iphones. I have seen using ipads before… but not phones. This was a new concept for me & at first I thought she was sitting and texting someone while I was talking to her.

Only open until 2pm, and usually the line is around the door on the weekends and we hate lines so have not been able to try it. A nearby appointment kindly gave us an opportunity. The service is great, the food was very good. The place is bright and cheery and open.
My kid was a huge fan of the pancakes and they looked enormous. I had the steak and eggs and was really pleased. I’d asked for rare, and the cook apparently didn’t feel it was done correctly and sent out a new one. Who does that kind of awesome, I tell you?!

Shelter in the storm. Open for business during the big floods. We had disposable plates and utensils because no potable water in the area.
Food was great and community spirit awesome. Love this place!

If you like breakfast then you must try Egg Up Grill! These ppl really know how to do breakfast. My family and I tried the Columbia SC location. I normally don’t like franchise but Eggs Up Grill knows how to do a franchise.
I recommend you try the sweet potato pecan waffle, the loaded home fries platter and add cheese to the grits. My nephew loved his kids meal and we had to order him an extra egg and cheese omelet and my mother ordered an extra waffle to go!!!
The staff was very warm and inviting. Several staff members stopped by our table to check on us. I truly wished I lived closer to an Egg Up Grill! I could define see it being a regular breakfast spot for me.

Our server Beth, was perfect! Very prompt and super friendly I ordered the trio and my brother in law ordered the southern omelet. They offer a military discount as well, an excellent place to eat!

Visiting from DC — we’ve been spoiled by buffet brunches for $ 30 with mimosas spilling over, but this place hit the spot!
We ordered to go on our way out of town and good thing too they were packed @ 10 AM on a Saturday.
I got the steel cut oats, added fruit, toppings on the side. Super good! Very filling. Very healthy.
My boyfriend got potatoes, no grits, extra bacon, omelette it was all done within minutes haha. Not so healthy apparently very good.
The staff was very friendly albeit busy at the front because it appears people pay at the hostess stand, are seated from there, and also pick up to go orders. My order was almost handed to someone else it was so busy! The staff all wear funny shirts with egg puns on them.
Will return if we’re ever in town again!

Three stars might not be fair, but I felt very meh about this place and I think a lot of that feeling has to do with the rave reviews and great things I heard about it.
The coffee was tad acidic, but not undrinkable. The corn beef had SO MUCH SALT — I love corn beef and I know it’s salty in general but this stuff should have come with one of those hazard signs you see on the back of a gas truck, woof.
The sunny side eggs were cooked perfectly, though and the potatoes were good! I was a little disappointed about the potatoes only because when they asked if I wanted peppers, onions and cheese I imagined it would all be cooked and not just raw onions and peppers on top.
All in all it was an okay breakfast but I’m not going to write home about it. Those who are from New England, like me, and are looking for the delight of a 24 hour greek diner breakfast keep looking.
I can’t forget to mention their shirts. I, for being a twenty something millenial etc, I love a good, punny dad joke and I laughed out loud at one of their waiters shirts. All of the cracked egg jokes — the trip is worth it for a try and a t-​shirt.

Went here for a solo breakfast trip during my short stay in Columbia and was 100% satisfied !
Really friendly staff offered I sit at the counter and spoke to me the entire which was really cool. They helped me figure out my order of the Goodness Gracious Omlette and it was delicious. Also had the cuppa cocoa… yummmmm !
Honestly if you’re keen for a good breakfast feed look no further ! Definitely want to come back and try other items on the menu before I leave :)

A pretty good experience overall. There was a wait for tables so we sat at the counter. We were greeted and served quickly. The service was very friendly. Our server forgot a few items but quickly remedied it. Very fairly priced.

The waitress Anna (my favorite name) recommended their famous corned beef hash, she didn’t lie. It was fabulously flavorful and when corned beef is good, it deserves a 5 star.
The hubby decided on adding on some extra french toast. A plus in my book since he never finishes it so that left good extras for me.
I would say this place has really good service. Not only were they all friendly, even the customers seemed to all have very satisfied faces.

This is my normal spot on Sundays, don’t be afraid to sit at the bar for quicker service. Out of my seven trips here I still enjoy the old 50’s and 60’s music playing in the background and a good hearty meal at a great price that won’t break your wallet !

Pretty decent breakfast. I got the tomato florentine and a cuppa cocoa. The food was… Good. It was basically an eggs Benedict with tomato and spinach instead of Canadian bacon. Unfortunately with the bacon went the seasoning. Not a huge deal, that’s what’s they give you s&p for. I appreciated the portion size– not huge or tiny. Reasonable. It cost around $ 8, and it filled me up. I’d definitely be willing to go back and try something different– perhaps of the pancake variety.
Oh, something that caught me off guard– they take your order on an iPhone. This has really nothing to do with my review other than being an observation. (Didn’t dock a star for it). It sounds strange but, I don’t love it. I know I sound 78 instead of 28, but it feels impersonal. Don’t ask me what the big deal between taking my order with a pen and pad instead of your phone is, I just don’t like the feeling that you’re tapping away on your phone while I’m talking to you. Maybe it improves accuracy, but call me old fashioned I guess. Ok. Grandma rant over. Check this place out, but do prepare to wait if you’re headed there for a midmorning brekkie. It’s across the street from a church, and seems like it fills up quickly Sunday morning. Service and friendliness were great as well.

This is officially my new favorite breakfast spot. Arrived early on Sunday morning (about 8:30) and had no wait, and sat right down. The staff was amazing and very friendly. Started off with a «Cuppa Cocoa» which was so good and perfect for the colder weather outside.
For my meal I ordered the Patty-​O-​Sullivan omlette which consisted of corned beef hash and swiss cheese. And let me just say — this is not the canned corned beef hash that looks/​smells like dog food (I must admit, I love that stuff, too), but this was scratch-​made corned beef hash that tasted like delicious corned beef. A side of house fries and cheese grits made my meal complete.
All of the food was so full of flavor and freshly made. The service was impeccable, and the place was really nice. By the time we left, there was a line forming and a short wait, so make sure you come early or plan to wait a bit.
I promise — it’s worth the wait!
