So, let's start with the good stuff... the food was pretty good - came out pipping hot & exactly as ordered. My wife got the veggie omelet with cheese & I got one of the specials, the huevos rancheros. Again, both very good. I also like the fact that the servers have the tablets, we can take care of the check & tip right there, table side. Lastly, let's be honest, in Rehoboth there are all kinds of traffic & parking issues & this place has a nice big parking lot. OK, so the things that need to be worked on... first, their competition, IMHO, is EGG (The gold standard for breakfast in Rehoboth) and the new Dewey Post in Dewey Beach. People LOVE sitting at the bar in both of those places because it's social & of course the food is so good. The bar feels like an after thought at Eggcellent. When we sat at the bar, there was a woman behind the bar, cutting celery & she never bothered looking up. She never said "your server will be right with you" or "can I get you a drink" - she just kept to her chores, leaving us to wonder if someone was going to wait on us. (Before we left, a man sat at the bar, by himself & asked us if they had service at the bar!) I know that during "the season" it won't make any difference how the help treats people (btw, once we got a server, she was great!) but if Eggcellent wants to compete the rest of the year, they might want to raise their service game a bit! And, make their bar someplace that people want to sit.

I will start out by saying the food was relatively good however extremely expensive two eggs with home fries $10? A cup of coffee $3.50. Our waitress was horrible, slow forgetful and apparently terrible hearing because everything that was said to her. She said she didn't hear, I asked for water didn't get any however, my husband did he ask as well we ended up sharing I asked for ciabatta toast she said she didn't hear so when she brought me the toast she charged me for it as an extra even though toast was supposed to come with my meal that toast should've been $.50 extra but she charged me $2.50 as if it was an entire side order her mistake FYI it wasn't even ciabatta and it was cooked on the grill with oil. I didn't even get butter ....breakfast for two just eggs meat toast no cocktails $50 so to me definitely not worth going there ever again.

The Summer Berry French Toast was Eggcellent! Prefer Hughes Scrapple, it's simply second to none. Not a big fan of Starbucks. The coffee had some of those unfortunate traits. Everyone else at our table was very pleased.

Quick and friendly service. I had the huevos rancheros special and husband had western omelette with home fries (which were crispy and delicious). Both were very filling and fresh. We will definitely come back again!

We usually go to The Pointe when we visit Dewey/Rehoboth Beach but we wanted something different and filling. We found it at Eggcellent! Huge portions at reasonable prices and ALLLLLL of it was delicious! You know the food is good when you do your happy dance at the table and start humming! The hubby saw me do both! Fluffy omelets, amazing French Toast, and Huge hot chocolates! I couldn't finish it all and it was even better the next day! Definitely going back when we visit in the summer!

Our family has enjoyed three breakfasts here so far. The food has been delicious. My one suggestion would be to offer a smaller portion of French toast/pancakes with an option of adding an egg.

We liked this place. My only negative is that I had a difficult time with the little step to put my feet on in booth.
This place is very expensive!! Eggs, home fries, Scrapple, and ONE piece of toast $21 this is just ridiculous!!!! Be warned, if you are bringing your family, get a loan from the bank before you come!! And unless you want the one slice of multi grain bread, other bread substitute are an extra charge as well!

The food was awesome. Best Benedict sauce I have ever had. Like many comments service was a bit dicey. We were seated and then eventually waitress came and then we didn’t see her again. It was ok because any waitress there was willing to help. Friendly people beautiful atmosphere I will return and return. Here is picture of inside for anyone who says it’s not nice. Clear coffee cups add a great touch

Went in on a rainy Sunday around 11:30, the wait wasn't terrible... maybe 15 minutes. Once seated the server promptly took our order and the food was great, my husband ordered from the breakfast menu and I ordered from the lunch menu. Cozy environment, yet big enough to seat many people. Price is on par with similar restaurants in the area.

Stopped in for breakfast this morning, arrived just before the rush. Requested a booth which they could not accommodate as we were a party of two and the only both available seated six. We were seated along the wall which was fine. Several other parties were seated, waited on and served and we still hadn't seen a waitress. The hostess came by and I questioned if there was a waitress assigned to our table, she indicated there was and she was aware we were there. After another five minutes a couple came in and was seated next to us. Shortly after that the waitress came over and took their order. We left. I don't know what their problem with us was, we've eaten there several times in the past and enjoyed it. I doubt we'll go back after this episode though.
