    Awesome lunch spot - I love their breakfast menus and sandwiches. I got fish once and it was stellar!

    Great brunch and nice street side patio. Omelettes are a good choice and really filling.

    Their eggs benedict is amazing, available every day. They add dill to the hollandaise. It's perfect. Ask for the homemade hot sauce.

    Show your JCC membership for 15% off. My personal brunch fave is the Eggs Charlottine with their special dill hollandaise sauce. Tasty!

    My fave breakfast spot when I lived in the annex. Try eggs florentine/charlotte. Dill hollondaise = drool worthy.

    Combination plate + falafel is a great veg option! Not the greatest dessert menu.

    Try the eggs with smoked salmon, it's poached eggs Benedict with smoked salmon and worth more than it costs!

    The service was surprisingly terrible. The waitresses were moody and extremely unpleasant. Eggs beni was bland!
