My sister and I had lunch at the Eggspectation located on Yonge Street in Toronto this afternoon, and our experience did not meet our "eggspectation". The server did not come to take our orders until 15 minutes after we had sat down, after we placed our orders the waitress did not bring us all of our food. I had ordered white toast with my meal, and she brought us brown, my sister had asked for her own set of toast, but we had only received 2 slices. We were neglected throughout our whole experience, we did not receive any refills for our beverages either. Since we were not taken care of, we had to flag down the manager who then had to bring us our other pieces of toast to eat with our COLD FOOD and beverages. By the end of the meal we had to wait 20 more minutes to see the waitress who was nowhere to be found. She finally came, but left and did not come back to get our change, SO we had to get another manager on site to get the change we needed to for bill. Overall, the service was unbearable and the food was not worth the price or the trouble.

Good Enough

Service was a little blah, but the breakfast was good. Its a little overpriced for what you get, though.

Eggspectations Definitely Delivers on its Promise!

I was surprised at how much attention went into building the dish as well as how fresh the ingredients were. The hostess' greeting was very warm, the service was friendly and prompt and the manager was genuinely concerned with my dining experience as his guest. I feel very comfortable and welcome eating here and will definitely return.

Is This What Toronto Has to Offer?

Friday afternoon; party of 5; given seats for 4 and subsequently for 6 after 2 minutes of reasoning. The staff was still unconvinced:'That's what we do every Saturday and Sunday!', referring to the act of packing customers neatly around their generous tables. Naturally the luckiest person gets the most comfortable seat at the table crack and the time of their life trying to balance their plates on the very even surface. Absolutely lovely! Strange how they didn't think of seating 3 people at 2-seaters. That's not all the fun we had for the day! Coffee mugs are apparently commonly served with lipstick stains(hear it from the waitress), especially on Friday afternoons where waitresses are sluggish and tend to miss a hot pink stain the size of a pinkie smudged across an ivory white mug. We Forgive self-proclaimed-overworked waitress who snapped at us for pointing out the color discrepancy on the mug, rather than apologize for the,in her words,often-faulty dishwasher. Well, I'm sorry we didn't eggspect a filthy dining eggsperience. We Forgive the manager too, who didn't so much as bother to assure us that such events will not happen to us again in the near future, but defend himself by offering us a perfectly logical explanation that "his waitress has had a long day" and that "such things happen" instead. Of course they do, honey, or there wouldn't be excellent restaurants around. After all, THERE CAN BE NO GOOD WITHOUT THE MEDIOCRE. I suppose our stay here in Toronto couldn't get any worse then! Thank you Eggspectation! You certainly have lived up to your own marvelous expectations! It certainly takes a lot more courage to brave frequent lousy comments.

I will tell you that I am a server at a chain...

I will tell you that I am a server at a chain restaraunt so i know both the responsibility and the hard work that goes into serving. Our experience started with my party waiting at our table for a server for 5-7 minutes, but we could clearly see the place was packed so no problem. when the server finally arrived he greeted us with a warm welcome of "What do you want?" So we proceed to order drinks and food. any question we had was answered in one word quite hastily. after another 5 minutes we still have no drinks, we look back at the bar to see our two bar drinks sitting their. when we finally get them they are undrinkable, i had to spit out the frozen smoothie, it was warmer than room temperature. we kindly ask our server for two new bar drinks and he was clearly angered, he goes makes new ones himself and throws them down on the table. mind you the two other people didn't even get there drinks yet. another 15 minutes pass by and we see a burger sitting where all the food is run, Our eggs are finally ready and the food is delivered, the burger is of course cold. the other 2 people finally get there drinks, 35 minutes into the meal, at least. We finally call the manager over and tell him about all of this and he proceeded to laugh in our faces, when we get the bill we see he took nothing off, then we spoke again and he took 30% but this would not do, we gave the manager 20 dollars and said good riddance. by far the worst experience at a restaraunt i have ever had.
