Eggsoasis - Calgary, Alberta

We were with a large group for Mother’s Day and had pretty poor service. Our food came relatively quickly however, one of our meals was missing. The waffles were stone cold and when we informed the server she said she could microwave them?! No fresh ones were offered! ... We had to ask the server for water, serviettes AND more coffee when we wanted a top-up. Plus, the toast that came with the meals arrived when we were 2/3 finished our breakfasts. When we got the bill I was astonished to see $8 for fresh squeezed OJ?! Whoa! That was an unexpected upsell!! Very disappointing experience overall. WAY too expensive for the quality of food. We will NOT go back. Read more

I mean, for 16.50 dollars it was a pretty bad food. Potatoes were cold, bacon tasted like an overdone chip that has been taken out of a freezer. Fruits looked like they have been laying untouched for a long time. There were some pluses nonetheless. Coffee was ok and the ... interior was pretty cool. Overall it wasn’t a good experience.

The only reason I didn't rate this as a one star is that the eggs in my eggs benedict were a perfect medium and the hollandaise sauce was pretty good. However! The english muffin was stale and hard, the bacon was clearly deep fried, the coffee was terribly bitter, the toast ... was so cold that the butter didnt even melt. We were never given an option for white or brown toast. The server was clearly overwhelmed as she was trying to serve all of the tables for half the restaurant (two servers on a Sunday morning?!) She told us that the latte machine was broken when we asked for a latte, but it probably wasn't, as it would just be too much to handle being so short staffed. The sound carries hard in this building. If you are looking for relative comfort, you will not find it here.The experience was not pleasant and I think we are pretty much done going to non-Coras breakfast places. Read more

Been awhile since we visited but we both remember liking it here. My glass came out with my soft drink that looked really gross full of water spots and upon looking closer, you could see lipstick (or something similar) on the glass. That didn't make me confident in our choice but ... the waitress apologized and got me a new glass. I had the breakfast burger which was alright, although I wish I asked to sub the salad for fruit since it seemed odd to eat greens at 10am. My wife had the mochaccino and the crepe burrito. The crepe was a tastier option than the usual tortilla but the vegetables were completely raw when it stated sauteed on the menu (last pic) which made the full thing not great for her. We both really loved the hash browns.. at least some of them as there were many inconsistencies of some being overly crispy and spiced and others much more raw and unseasonsed. We'll be going elsewhere next time. Read more

Update: Reading the comments now, after submitting my own review, I see many patterns that I hope the management can learn from and improve on. If things were improved, I would go back to this location but right now, unfortunately, no. Here I am a bit confused on what star rating ... to give this breakfast and lunch place. Parking: ample and free Seating: a big restaurant with a lot of seating and we were seated fairly quickly, despite the full restaurant! Service: kind waitress and came to ask if we needed anything else two times. Considering how busy the place was, that seemed good to me! She's a great asset to your team! Food: the eggs Benedict was good but came out too soon before the other two meals. It became cold. The Goddess Crepes were more like thin pancakes and didn't have all of the fruit listed (due to a shortage). It was not accompanied by the English cream, mentioned in the menu but I brought it to the waitresses attention and received some sort of tasty custard. The waffle was not waffle consistency --do you use the same batter for the waffles as pancakes or crepes? The waffle was also very undercooked, unfortunately. This was never remedied in any way (despite bringing it to the waitresses attention). So we left semi-hungry, and out money for raw food. The potatoes were inconsistently cooked due to various thicknesses and some stuck together. Some more care could be taken to ensure they are cooked well. Value: as expected for any breakfast place. Avg $20/person and you're fed well (as long as you can eat all the food...if it's not undercooked). Food should come out together or close in time to ensure everyone is eating hot food. Just making the comparison to the other location...thinking this place is better for eggs than anything else. Eggs Benedict for the win. Read more
