“We celebrated my niece's 16th birthday and even though the food didn't come back quite like some wanted it, we definitely appreciated the server Jamani for assisting our server who seemed a little overwhelmed and the Manager Taylor was awesome! He was great with fixing the issues and making the situation better considering it was a birthday brunch celebration! He & Jamani even sang Happy Birthday with us to her! It ended up being a good time! Thank you guys so much!“

“My husband and I had the best experience at this restaurant today. After a long drive and busy morning we enjoyed the best service from Cameron . Our omelettes and pancakes were delicious. It was nice to be in a relaxed atmosphere eating fresh food and having an attentive server with a great personality taking care of us . The mimosa flight was great ! I would recommend this restaurant and this server for a good breakfast or lunch ! Thanks Cameron for a great lunch ! We will be back in town soon to see you ! 5 stars 🤩“

“I liked almost everything about Egg Harbor Cafe until I heard Stephanie who was there for 9 years had left the company. How do lose such an awesome employee like her? It's beyond my comprehension. Our DG Breakfast Group has moved to The Baked Apple Breakfast Co. Our group numbers 7! Big mistake!!!“

“Muy buena comida y buen servicio. Buen lugar para comprar regalitos bonitos❤️🤩.“

“*Photos coming soon* This was the best breakfast experience I have had in years! Let me be clear, i live for breakfast food and will seek it out at any meal of the day if the fancy strikes me. It was very busy being a Sunday in the late morning but our wait was short and ended up with seats at the bar. This turned out to be fantastic because the staff behind the counter/bar were great. To top it off the food was exceptional!

The food was fresh made to order and I have nothing but praise for it. The timeliness coming from the kitchen was on point. And to their credit, we ordered a lot of food for just two people. We made this an event and it was worth it. Bacon, pork belly, pancakes, stuffed French toast, eggs benedict, and some excellent beverages made for a great meal and tons of leftovers. Nothing was basic and each item had a unique and exceptionally complimenting twist to your basic idea of these staple breakfast dishes.

Service with a smile. The staff all had great attitudes even when the place was packed and nearing midday.

It seemed like the perfect balance of chaos and coordination inside. The only thing that looked remotely out of place was the congestion at the door where groups were waiting for tables to become available. I will note that people unwilling to sit at the counter as spots became available did wait for quite a while. We were leaving when a couple that was waiting before we even arrived was just being seated. Like I said, busy.

To wrap this place up, 10/10 highly recommend. If its a short drive for you then make it a point to try this place if you haven't. If it hours away? Plan accordingly to beat the rush. I promise you will not be dissapointed.“

“Unity Restaurant delivers an exceptional experience from start to finish. The food is outstanding—fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. Every dish tastes thoughtfully crafted, with generous portions and seasoning that’s spot-on. You can tell real care goes into both the ingredients and presentation. The Salmon Croquettes, grits and biscuits was bussing fasho!“

“I have only eaten breakfast here, but it is always good and inexpensive. This more of a grab your food to go spot. Get the breakfast potatoes and the fried green tomatoes. The country steak is extra crispy on the outside and moist on the inside.“

“My family and I stopped by this location to have breakfast and everything was good. The staff was friendly, the food was good and hot and the vibe was hospitable. I would recommend this location if you are looking for a good breakfast spot.“

“We were looking for an all day breakfast place near my family‘s home in Atlanta. This place happened to be literally around the corner. It’s a very lively room and the service was excellent. The servers were friendly and nice! And the food was excellent! I love grits and their cheese grits were to die for. Living in California I don’t get to have grits often and being from the south it’s one of my favorite things… Was so happy to find this place nearby.💖“

“Good burrito and wasn’t greasy. Sized right! Atmosphere is good for employees and patrons alike.“

“This was my first time trying First Watch and it was pretty busy for a Sunday afternoon (to be expected). We were advised the wait would be around 30 to 40 minutes, but sat down inside and only waited about 5 to 10 minutes before we were called to be seated.

Pictured below is the Bacado omelette with cheese grits and the Tri-fecta with cinnamon chip pancake and scrambled eggs.

We were not expecting for the pancake to be so big, but everything was delicious.

Highly worth a try if you've never been.“

“Blue Chip has fresh and rotating lunch options daily, as well as a balance of options across all food groups. The team is very hardworking, especially Gabby and Ana. I have been to Blue Chip countless times and they both consistently multitask and work in an incredibly fast-paced environment to deliver lunch to hundreds and hundreds of customers each day. They both greet me by name every time I visit (3-4 times a week) and truly get to know customers, despite the large amount of customers. Gabby is constantly quickly checking out customers (often times multiple customers at once) to facilitate the flow of patrons. I honestly think it only takes 10 seconds for her to input my order and for me to pay - I’m always impressed. She also regularly aids with other aspects of the kitchen, helping serve customers/clean up when needed/restocking the many utensils/sauces/seasonings. My friends and coworkers often comment on how efficient, kind, and hard working she is. Lunch may be a small part of our days, but it’s always wonderful to see Gabby and Ana at Blue Chip.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 10/10 — A true Southern hospitality gem! Food is flavorful, service is flawless, and the staff is absolutely amazing!!! This is without a doubt the best J. Christopher’s location in the city. Steve delivers top-tier hospitality, José works magic in the kitchen, and Angelica brings such a warm, welcoming energy to the dining experience. I'm a regular to say the least!“

“I was visiting Houston and I stop here for breakfast. I just want to give a shot out to my waiter and the cooks. I've never seen male cooks as clean as these guys were. This speaks volume! Management don't loose these guys! They are awesome cooks and they care about how they look while doing it!“

“Food was great and the cooks were 👍 great but the young waiter seemed very distracted and I had to flag him down 2 times about water and my bill. But he was nice ,just needs to work on his awareness, I still tipped him ,but not as much as I wanted too.“
