I noticed a few people were thrown off by the ordering process so here's a heads up; there isn't anyone to take your order, it's a touchscreen at the counter to place your order and pay. The food was made to order so fresh and so fast. I had the spicy brisket sandwich and I'll definitely be back again to try other things.

I got the brisket burrito but in a bowl. The flavors are awesome! Smokey, cheesy, and eggy.

My partner got the chicken biscuit and the sauce on it is delicious.

The service is awesome and the people are kind. The space is somewhat small but definitely worth a try.

It's a little pricy for what it is ($12 for a bacon egg and cheese) but overall it's delicious! The brioche is nice, and the they have great and free substitutions such as changing sauce and egg types.

There isn't much service, you order yourself and they bring it to the table.

The best thing about this place is the atmosphere! It's gorgeous, with lovely wall art and a great playlist of songs playing at all times.

I hope when you come here, you have a good effin time!

Hit the spot. Was great for a quick breakfast while I waited for a meeting nearby. Food was served quickly, everything was fresh and well prepared. Workers were super friendly. Place has a nice vibe with music playing and great decor. Prices weren't outrageous. My bowl was $11. Didn't try their coffee but I will next time and there will be a next time.

Fun place, potheads dream lol, unique theme, that what drawed me in. Well decorated and lighted spot. Ordered food on the kiosk, and it came pretty qiuck. The food was good, and the coffee was good. I can't wait to try the other things on the menu

Cute little egg shop with lots of options. I got the OG ; which is basically a bacon egg and cheese with a Mexican/ketchup mix. It's definitely a messy meal so would encourage you sit in for it. That said, was very good and had a nice kick to it. Price is slightly steep with most options being 10/12.

Im a sucker for a good friend egg sandwich and this place hits the spot every time.

I stopped here for a quick breakfast sandwich. I had the CEO. Mike’s Hot Honey is a welcomed addition as well to the flavors.

The service is a bit slow, which makes me think there’s probably a longer wait during peak breakfast hours. Both times i visited it was near noon, so no crowd. However it still took a while for me to receive my sandwich (10 minutes) even though i was the only one there.

I've visited here 3 times and tried different menu items each time. Today I fancied tacos so tried the Papi's Brisket Tacos and they were divine. Not too heavy and perfect for what I wanted. I've had the breakfast sandwiches and breakfast tacos before and they were what made me come back again. Staff are super friendly, small area for dining in. Highly recommended you try this Hidden Gem.
