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.
Louis DavidFebruary 3, 2018The egg Rothko is fantastic! Especially paired with the candied bacon... yum !
Lida WangOctober 10, 2016Great spot, beware of large queues. Order Rothko eggs, amazing! No expresso coffee.
Michelle VazDecember 10, 2016Great Breakfast in Brooklyn, NY.. might be a little wait depending on the day of the week.
Dorothy McGivneyJanuary 5, 2014Amazing can franc served (chilled) here. Super earthy, good with bacon hash!
Natalie FreilichJuly 20, 2015The staple breakfast spot in Williamsburg. Eggs Rothko are a personal fave.
Gaby GingolaJanuary 8, 2016Try the cilantro scrambled eggs and hash browns. Come on a weekday to avoid the brunch crowd.
Jen KatanMarch 28, 2016Famous brekkie spot. All American, grits n biscuits n hot sauce. Which I poured into my coffee.
Geoff ReinhardtAugust 18, 2014Overall great for breakfast or brunch. Granola is delicious. Biscuits are a bit too salty.
Jordan CrookMarch 7, 2015Favorite breakfast. Candied bacon and grafton cheddar hash browns are a must.
Stina P.March 17, 2015draw on the tables with crayons, order french press, eat anything your heart desires for brunch
Iffat JokhioAugust 10, 2014Delicious and unique breakfast potatoes! Shredded then reformed into a ball and deep fried!
Owen WilliamsNovember 22, 2015I have a thing for breakfast. This place did not disappoint, and if you love eggs, you'll love it.
Ebee DMarch 28, 2015Egg Rothko was good, not amazing, but good. Bacon was underwhelming. Coffee was super smooth, I like the personal press.
Jon PressmanNovember 28, 2015The pancakes look simple but are complex and perfect. Soft, spongy, buttery.
A KMay 24, 2015eggs rothko was delicious - I had it with kale but you can add 'the meat of your choice' if you'd like to!
AdleyAugust 27, 2014Nice place but quite noisy. The granola wasn't a good choice, too chewy for me. The coffee from Brooklyn Roasting Company good as always.
Get the caramelized grapefruit with mint. Vegetarian biscuits and gravy are delicious and potatoes here... Latke style with plenty of salt and pepper! Yum!
Roni LeporeDecember 31, 2011Try the Carolina Kale - Organic Kale, tomatoes, and a egg in a lightly spiced broth served over grilled cornbread. Delicious!
AmateurConciergeJanuary 21, 2015Be warned: The egg and chorizo sandwich is a whole lot of chorizo and not a lot of egg
Joan ParkSeptember 1, 2014Arrive before 9AM to avoid the wait. The savory Eggs Rothko and side of warm & crunchy hash brown were good but nothing too special I would wait over half hour for. Sausage was way too salty.
Great brunch, small restaurant, super long lines... go during the week when less people are trying to get in.
Christopher BApril 1, 2018Been here a few times. Friendly service but kinda absent at the same time. The hash brown is excellent. Stay away from braised bacon sandwich. Not good.
- I dig all the food here. It's so good and uncomplicated. The lines are totally lame though.
Village VoiceFebruary 28, 2012Village Voice is excited to have Egg at the 2012 ChoiceEats food fest! Full list of restaurants here:
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

"A list of what I've ordered there and each was excellent: beef empanadas, buñuelo (ask them to warm it up for you!), cappuccino with a little cinnamon, arepa de chocolo con queso. Ajiaco looks great."
Rachel Slurs - 7.1
"Spinach & mushroom omelet is perfect - but hold the hollandaise - it's not necessary. SO GOOD"
