Eggs Rothko should be the only thing on the menu (along with hashbrown balls and bacon dipped in maple syrup).
A little part of me dies every time I walk past on a Saturday and see people waiting for hours. There's so many better options nearby - Diner, Marlow, Rabbithole, Allswell, Colette, to name a few
Chad HornerApril 15, 2017really fun breakfast or brunch! involve a biscuit in whatever you're ordering.
LukaSHAugust 28, 2014Get Grafton Cheddar Omelet with Broiled Tomatoes & hashbrowns. Add pork saussage and you have THE breakfast!
CompassJuly 24, 2013Egg’s Southern-style cooking begets lines out the door come Sunday brunch, and it's no secret why: brioche french toast and freshly baked biscuits keep breakfast lovers coming back for more.
AmateurConciergeFebruary 11, 2018Man these guys really know how to do a soft scramble (add cheddar). Chorizo and eggs is great
Melda ÖzkanJune 13, 2015Don't plan just walking in and dining! 30-40 mins waiting. But it really worth it.
Nick BurtoMay 23, 2014Woah, the Country Ham biscuit with cheddar & fig paste was delish! Get a poached egg on the side instead of grits.
Cameron CrowJune 26, 2014I love the way try do their hashbrowns! All in a circle--crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside. Like a hashbrown cake.
From The World BlogOctober 23, 2012Eggs Rothko (on brioche with cheddar, tomatoes and homemade sausage) and the organic pancakes are delicious. But I suspect everything they serve is fantastic.
Shermans TravelAugust 15, 2012Breakfast menu features sweet and fluffy homemade biscuits, stone-ground South Carolina grits, country ham, and scrapple from an organic New Jersey farm Read more
Hugo ChevallierSeptember 21, 2016So Nice place Where You can draw on the table waiting for your meal
Eggs Rothko is always a great choice but even simpler items like eggs and hash browns are standouts.
Ricky SherrillSeptember 20, 2014Smithfield Ham biscuits are a must try. The hash browns are cooked the way I like them..., nice and crunchy.
Rich KearneyNovember 18, 2012This place always has a crazy line, but it is DAMN good! The southern-style breakfast biscuit sandwich is amazing. Order it to go.
Village VoiceFebruary 7, 2014Village Voice is proud to welcome Egg to the 2014 Choice Eats food fest!
HeatherFebruary 26, 2014They don't serve lunch until 3 p.m. however, will still give you the lunch menu (along with brunch menu) to mull over despite your inability to order from it. Last time I checked, brunch = bfast/lunch
Eggs Rothko with candied bacon. Just do it. Also, if you go in the morning on the weekends, you get delicious and warm beignets !!
ginny hDecember 17, 2011Like everyone else here the Eggs Rothko are delicious! Get their biscuits and house marmalade! heavenly!
Luyba ZeylikmanJune 14, 2015Great food, service was okay the wait was a bit long...looks like the place is understaffed by one or two people. However really loved the breakfast
Design*SpongeMarch 25, 2011Egg makes one of the best biscuits I've had north of the Mason Dixon. My grandmother's ham biscuits are hard to beat, but the biscuits and ham here are pretty darn good.
SeraOctober 18, 2013Try out Egg Rotkho!! Probably the best thing i have ever had for breakfast! 11 USD but worth every single cent.
SkeeterNYCSeptember 27, 2011Ask the waiter what's freshest from their farm upstate. Whatever that is, you MUST, I repeat, you MUST order it.
Lane RettigNovember 15, 2015Simple menu but remarkably high quality delicious food. The eggs rothko is unreal and the hashbrown is scrumptious!
My favorite brunch in Williamsburg. Try the Eggs Rothko, or biscuits and gravy. Then doodle on the tables.
Peter WuJanuary 3, 2015Of course, get the eggs rothko. The biscuits are bomb but the jam is surprisingly amazing.
Peter GastonJune 21, 2012Fast & friendly takeout on weekdays. Plus, their grilled cheese with pickled jalapeños and bacon was a game-changer on a hungover afternoon.
Laura PradoAugust 28, 2015Eggs rothko were a pleasant surprise, with the egg tucked between brioche and cheese. Yummmmm
Michelle VazDecember 10, 2016Great Breakfast in Brooklyn, NY.. might be a little wait depending on the day of the week.
CITY GRITAugust 8, 2014Who doesn’t love a place that serves breakfast until 3 every day?!? Don’t tell Sarah but we think Chef Evan Hanczor makes the best biscuit in the city!
ACAugust 19, 2011I'd say get there early to avoid the crowd, but the baby toting residents already have that covered. Boo. Worth the wait tho. Act like a pro - put your name on the list that hangs by the door.
Pien MaatJune 12, 2015If you have a morning off and you have plenty of time it's nice to have breakfast!
- AmateurConciergeJanuary 21, 2015Be warned: The egg and chorizo sandwich is a whole lot of chorizo and not a lot of egg
Lida WangOctober 10, 2016Great spot, beware of large queues. Order Rothko eggs, amazing! No expresso coffee.
Carmen da SilvaAugust 15, 2011As far as I remember they only serve Stumptown via french press, however, I loved it (and I'm not a regular straight-up coffee kinda gal but heeeey, when done right—it's done riiiiiight). Read more
Gaby GingolaJanuary 8, 2016Try the cilantro scrambled eggs and hash browns. Come on a weekday to avoid the brunch crowd.
Rita Boreczky-BergerApril 24, 2011Eggs rothko and the definitely top it off with the Pound cake, custard and ice cream desert... SO DELICIOUS! Also loved the individual french presses for coffee.
Ebee DMarch 28, 2015Egg Rothko was good, not amazing, but good. Bacon was underwhelming. Coffee was super smooth, I like the personal press.
Great brunch, small restaurant, super long lines... go during the week when less people are trying to get in.
- SkeeterNYCSeptember 27, 2011Everyone gets the Egg Rothkos. But I didn't. I got the country ham biscuit with a side of eggs to shove inside it with the rest of the goodies. That's what you do.
Jay AmatoAugust 9, 2014Pancakes are great. Light, thinner than other favorites like Clinton Street Bakery, and extremely flavorful.
