First of all, I was really excited about Mr. Eggs because eggs are one of my favorite foods. Whether you fry them, cook them, or just drink them, it's the perfect combination of salty and sweet. You can get them in almost all regular restaurants, so eggs are hard to mess up, right? WRONG.
My first clue that there was going to be trouble was when the host up front was dipping (tobacco) and when I told him I needed a table for 1, he looked straight at me and spit the brown juice into an old Code Red (Mountain Dew) bottle that was already full to the top with dip spit. He goes "What, you don't have any friends?" Very rude, and not true, because they're really busy, like me, and I have a lot.
When I got there the table was clean, but the waiter told me "Don't make a big mess, it's Mr. Eggs not Mr. Messy." I told him if the eggs were good then I'd clean the plate, but he shook his head and said "Don't f*** the table because I hate wiping up." Then he dropped the menu and walked off.
I was going to get 2 regular, 2 salsa eggs, but there was nobody even in the restaurant, not even other customers. So I got up and was looking around, and the waiter was out front smoking a Black/Mild. I said "Give me 2 regular and 2 salsa" and he yelled at me "I'm on break." I told him that if eggs were on break, that we'd all go hungry, and he just said "Go sit down."
9 minutes later he came back and he smelled great because of the cigar, but he was coughing a lot and he called me a pig for getting 4 eggs. It's a healthy serving if you have an appetite, so that's not even a lot. The eggs weren't good and he wrote "You better put a tip" at the end of the receipt.
The worst part was that he put the receipt under the eggs so when I was done eating I could see it. If you're lazy that probably makes sense but I got eggs all over and I couldn't write on it, so I had to ask for another one and he said "I'm going to charge you for the extra paper."
So don't go to Mr. Eggs, because when you go out, you want some good eggs, not overcooked eggs and dip spit. I don't like to leave a negative review but avoid Mr. Eggs and just go to G.Eagle and get your own. It's cheaper and nobody calls you a pig.
