If you have the money to burn for an excellent brunch experience, this is the place to be.It can get very crowded on weekends during brunch hours. To take advantage of outdoor sitting, you need to be here during the winter.Customer service is great and the food is prepared almost instantly. I removed 1 star due to a total lack of affordable options. Easy to think its all a bit overpriced
Eggspectation is always one of my favorite breakfast spots in Dubai Marina. You will always receive excellent customer service. DJ our waiter was great and very attentive. The manager came by our table to be sure our experience was great. I ordered the Old Bay Benny Crab Cake. It was delicious. The food came out very quickly as well. If you want a great spot by the beach and near local shopping. This is a great restaurant within that area. Please note in my picture I had already started eating my meal.
Nice location. Right by the sea in JBR. Breakfast is stylish more American than European or Asian. Variety of egg specialties good for breakfast. Have tried a few delicacies but definitely portions are larger for single person. Good for share. Staff friendly and there is a nice open area but can be full so try to go earlier. I do not think they take reservation
Went here for breakfast. The menu has a lot of really good options. The staff is very helpful and kind. The food was very fast, actually it was so fast that the food was kind of cold. I know it sounds weird but it felt like most of it was already prepared and just put together. But that’s not to say that it was bad, it was still good. I will be visiting again to try other options on their menu.
The reservation is made directly on the spot, you have to wait between 20 and 30 minutes.The dishes are really well served and the staff is very welcoming. I recommend 100%.
Expect to wait 20-45 minutes for a table on on weekend. Excellent service and delicious food. Very generous portions. Have been many times and will definitely be back.
Lovely selection of breakfast options (especially variety of eggs) that is served whole day ... and really great portions ... !Great outdoor setting (tad bit hot now coz it’s March end and Dubai summer is almost there), apparently gets really busy on weekends and morning time but we had gone after 3pm so we’re seated immediately !Hospitable and helpful staff is a plus 😊PS - the potato’s were lovePPS - recommended breakfast spot
I went there for an early morning breakfast and enjoyed it. The place opens at 7, so the early risers are covered. Instead of the usual coffee, I opted for green mix juice and loved it. Paired it with omelette. The food was really good. Only issue was that the portion of fries was too much and I could not finish it. So for next time I am gonna request them to skip the fries.Other than that, the service was prompt, staff well covered (in mask, face shield) and amazing view. You can also go for a quick walk along the beach once you are done!
We liked the decor/presentation of food at this place. Decent one with both indoor and outdoor seating arrangement. Excellent food. Veggie Omlet, Yummy !!!, I do not remember having such a Jumbo Omlet before. Also the Vegetarian Pizza was perfect. This is located along side the beach walk and very near to the Cinemas. Pocket friendly. They deserve all stars for food and their Service. Good One.
The saumon on the crostini was very good, but the bread was hard like a stone and too thick. The chicken bathed in the sauce and the blue cheese sauce was terrible. The Burger was fine, but the salt was missing. Nicely decorated but not very functional: the plate for the chicken was not right and the knife not sharpen. The stuff, however was very kind.
Amazing serviceFriendly staffThey protect us from the birds 🦅I appreciate them all specially santosh
Morning Delight at Eggspectation JBR (Jumeirah Beach Residence), Dubai, UAEHad a hearty breakfast at Eggspectation JBR (Jumeirah Beach Residence) Branch, Dubai, that consisted of sumptuous Fillet Mignon, 2 eggs over easy, warm servings of delectable potatoes, bowl of salad with heavenly dressing and a glass of my favorite freshly squeezed orange juice.Enjoying delectable food while overlooking incredible beach scenery can definitely elevate all senses to greater heights.
Definitely did NOT live up to my eggspectation! Service was good, and they could make a perfect poached egg, and food looked good, but that is where it ended. Ordered the Smoked Salmon Benny....there were very little salmon, and the hollandaise was way too tangy. Also ordered the Spicy Polenta Benny. Disaster! Polenta was dry and close to inedible and the spinach was maybe half a leaf. Very dissapointed.....besides that, it was all much too expensive!--------So I wrote the above about a month ago and restaurant was very quickly in responding asking me to contact them...which I did. NO RESPONSE! CLEARLY ONLY FOR MARKETING THAT THEY OFFER TO DISCUSS THE POOR REVIEWS. VERY POOR
Had a great breakfast after a swim on JBR Beach.The kids enjoyed their interactive menu (it doubles as a page to colour and some puzzles to solve)They have the freshest fruit juice (the freshly squeezed apple is amazing)Food was great and the portion sizes are large
Tried this quite pricey & much over hyped breakfast place on the basis of reviews & ratings. Ambiance & views are very nice as its located at JBR near to opposite flying cup.Lets come to the breakfast.Was served with some breads,jam & butter as starter.In juices we ordered Perfectly pink & fresh Grape fruit juice. Both were quite refreshing.For mains ordered Eggspectation Omelete & Uneggspected. Both were good in taste not some extraordinary omeletes. Serving sizes were okay but the main things which are omeletes were quite small as compared to other places. Seems like they made just 1 or 2 eggs omelete which should be atleast 4 eggs considering the price of each dish. Other than that both dishes were over filled with potato chips. Uneggspected has omelete with a tenderloin steak which was also okay not upto the mark.Service of staff was really nice & they kept asking again & again.Value for money 3/10Quality of food 6/10Service 10/10
You can’t stop eating there. Bug portions and reasonable price. It Tastes amazing and you must try it
Our second visit to Eggspectation this week! The food was once again very tasty and very nicely presented. The restaurant was quite when we arrived but soon became busy by the time our food arrived (I’m not surprised, this place is great!)If you want a nice breakfast/brunch out, you should definitely consider Eggspectation. I haven’t tried lunch or dinner but I can imagine it’s equally good 👍(It should be noted that there is no baby change facility in this restaurant)
Horrible customer service!Beware: there is no possibility to book a table for breakfast during weekends. While the waiting list sounds more reasonable providing the number of customers trying to get in, the restaurant refuses to add to the queue by phone. So the only option is to come over there, have your name added, and then wait outside (no, there is no place to hide from sun) until you get seated. They will call you, if you walked to a nearby shop to escape from heat, BUT they cant just add you if you call from you car being even on the parking two minutes away.Sounds simple, but completely infeasible for the restaurant to implement.Where would you go upon a conversation with a restaurant, which refused to queue you by phone? Of course to another place.Curious how the restaurant management will try to screw up, hiding by its policies that dont allow bookings nor adding to the queue, which is nonsense.Id say it doesnt deserve a star, but it wont be fair as the food wasnt that bad during my past (and certainly the last) visit, even though the staff seemed only waiting you to leave while you still chewing the last bits.Hence one star.To note, there are many cafés with good food in the city which are loyal to customers.
Love, love, love this place. The views an food are always the best.
Good family restaurant, with good food, pricey but good serving. I visited today with family for breakfast at jbr. the ladies stewards at jbr is super nice but one of the male staff was arrogant and rude. Your customers,are paying good money to be treated respectfully and there is no reason for being rude for no reason. Please explain your male staff to learn some basics of hospitality. If you disrespect your loyal customers , they will never come back.
Below average eatery. Generous portions for breakfast but just not very good. Great location though!
Easily my best breakfast place in Dubai. The portions are huge and the ambience is fantastic. Go to the JBR branch if you want beach views and a busy restaurant. Go to City Walk if you want a more relaxed vibe. Either way, the quality is top notch with friendly staff. DJ was our server at JBR and I was really impressed by his proactiveness and friendliness.
These guys make a SICK BREAKFAST! Healthy portions and surprisingly affordable prices, considering its at JBR.It can get packed on a Friday morning, but the staff is so nice and accommodative. They had us at a table in under 15 mins which was really appreciated.Lovely food, great service, and a stunning location! What more could you ask for?
A very nicely and conveniently located restaurant. It is just few steps away from the beachThe food is tasty and of good quality. But, I felt like the portions are quite big, or American size, as they call it. So you might want to order a plate to share and leave some space for pancakes. The atmosphere and staff are very enjoyable and friendly. I paid 100 dirhams for a breakfast plate and a coffee.. Felt that it is a little overpriced for place as casual as this.
Fantastic all day breakfast, very vast selection of poached eggs, coffee and natural smoothies/juices. Smoked salmon Benny is to die for and also try Canadian coffee. Has a lovely terrace on the beach and indoor seating area. It gets quite busy over the weekend but the wait time isnt very long 20-30 minutes on a super busy day. The service was excellent. Best breakfast place in Dubai, highly recommended!!
I came here for brunch and it did not disappoint one bit. The decor of the restaurant is adorable. They have inside and outside seating, there was a wait for the outside seating so we opted for sitting inside. The food was amazing. I ordered eggs and pancakes with a side of potatoes and bacon. The pancakes were so fluffy and tasted amazing. My friend got the chicken and waffles and it was so nice. The chicken is more nugget style but the breading is so flavorful! Overall, I highly recommend this restaurant!!
It eggseeded our eggspectations. Great food and great service. Aries, our server, made our first dine in experience more memorable.
Updated to 5stars.. Third visit and the consistency in Service, Food quality and Taste is commendable! Expectation certainly always met. Will recommend for all groups.Great menu- so much offered, good service and ambience. Location (next to the beach) is perfect if you are in the JBR area and well priced too.
The food is good, but the service is amazing!.... as a non smoker, I loved how they had a separate outdoor area for the smokers. The manager was really attentive. My friend did not really like her eggs, he immediately came to our table, apologized and offered to make them again! Will definitely visit again when i come to Dubai.
Over priced for the quantity. Taste was bad too.Not recommended!
Great Canadian breakfast brunch place. The food is tasty , generous portions. The staff are just lovely. And the views especially at the JBR branch are amazing.If your looking for a breakfast place this is where you need to be. There fried chicken waffle and pancakes are amazing. And they serve some pretty mean eggs. Thumbs up all the way
كل شي ممتاز .. الاكل لذيذ👌🏻 والقعدة داخل مريحة وخارج المطعم جميلة جدا.. الخدمة ممتازة 👍🏻نظيف ومرتب جداً والموظفين لبقين ومحترمين.الخدمة سريعة والسعر مقابل كل ما ذكر يعتبر ممتاز.Everything is perfect,, food is tasty also nice indoor and outdoor seating erea with an amazing view. The service is 👍🏻👍🏻Clean and comfortable and tidy also the staff is very nice and respectful.Quick service and the prices is good.
We love our breakfast and from time to time our dinner here.Weve been going since they opened many years ago (6-7 if Im not wrong). The service is super quick, the food tastes great and the staff are super friendly and helpful.
Eggspectation crew is outstanding in service from check in to check-out.Wide variety of egg options. We could try this time only 2 types. Looking forward to visit more and check other options as well.Kinda overpriced..Seating arrangements need to be changed to a better layout. Current arrangement is too packed
Passed by the place to try something new. over priced compared to what is serves. I have been to other places that serves similiar menu yet more delicious.If i want hange price compared to other places , they should reduce their price by 10% - 15%
I have a toddler and it is often uncomfortable going places because he loves to scream and becomes restless very easily. The staff made us feel so welcome and went above and beyond with the service. I was actually able to finish my meal! I loved them.
Located at the heart of JBR, Eggspectation is a busy busy restaurant. We had to wait for 25 minutes before getting a table for breakfast. The food was great and the portions were bigger than expected. Presentation of the food was nice. Coffee could have been better.Tables outdoors are placed quite close to each other. You are part of the conversation people are having next to your table and vice versa.
Love the breakfast ..big portions..nice view on the beach still expensive breakfast cost 100 drm with orange juice
Delightful meal, you can choose to be naughty or nice here with a big selection.Decent size and you can order sides or customise your order.It isn’t cheap though, expect standard Dubai prices.Went with the Bravocado with a side of asparagus. Filled me up nicely.Ample seating with smoking and non smoking sections.Bathrooms were well maintained too.If you eat here at night you’ll see the fireworks which started at 830pm. That was during January which is their cooler period.
I’ve been to this place twice during my quick gateway. I already miss it! I’ve tried those two dishes and they’re so yummy. What I like about their food is how light it’s and you get to taste every ingredient! Nothing is overpowering. One downside though, their bacon doesn’t live up to the standards of the restaurant. Peace!
Second time, both times had to wait which is a good sign. You leave your name and you can walk around JBR so that is not an issue. The staff and service are great. The omelets selection is very tasty and sizeable (US diner style) and the varied customer base provided a nice ambience.
Loved their high rise pancakes! The price is a bit steep but they match the quantity of the food so you get value for your money.The atmosphere is great and the staff friendly.
Great food. Speedy and very helpful team, must try the breakfast and tuna salad eggxcellent all of it. Cassim is 1 of the greatest hosts in this restaurant . Thank you we will return again.
Delicious food! the restaurant itself is uncomfortable but the food is very tasty, recomend.
The best experience we have about this place is the waiter DJ. He was attentive, gentle and explained the menu and suggested alternatives genuinely. Lately you dont come across such service unless it a high end restaurant. Throughout our stay he attended all the tables with the same manner.My food was okay but the kids loved their crepe and waffles. My husband loved his blue stake sandwich.
Its my favourite place for breakfast, they have the best eggs benedits and excellent service!
Nice place
Eggcedes all and every eggspectation! Delicious, wholesome, diverse food. Beautiful setting.
I really dont get the hype !! I was recommended the restaurant by multiple people so finally decided to give it a go... In short ... Not worth it.The taste was bland , but not in a way salt and pepper could fix , but just something you wouldnt want to eat.I cant NOT recommend it , as everyone has their own tastes, but it wasnt for me.
Fabulous place to have breakfast... I highly recommend it
Unfortunately the restaurant did not meet my egg-spectations, neither was it egg-semplar. This was not a great a egg-sample of high quality food. The coffee was quite watery, so I can only assume it was made with instant powder? If not, then poorly made. The high rise pancakes were made well, however, the bacon and sausages alongside them were over cooked. Staff were polite but the food was unfortunately not to the same standard.
Lot of choices in the eggs.Salads are good and copious.
Good food, nice place to sit talk and enjoy food. The place gets noisy as it is mostly full with guests
Amazing breakfast and very tasty smoothies. Food here is really good and usually packed during the weekend but the friendly staff will assist you and will text you when your table is ready 👌👌
Love the food here, I always order the same thing.... the chicken and waffles because honestly there arent many places in Dubai that serve that.My husband decided to order an insane pancake that had bacon, potatoes and sausages in it.We also had the crab cakes as appetizers
Good food and sitting. Staff was great. Their potato’s are so good.
Staff are so friendly- really nice food and really nice location. If you sit outside you have a lovely view of not only the beach but also the sea.
Nice place and friendly team but ac very cold
We came here for breakfast. The location is good with a nice view. The menu has a wide selection too
I had a vegitarian crepe that was excellent. My date had a stack of pancakes 😀😀😀😀. Did not work out so well. To much pancakes. Good tasting juices as well.
Excellent experience. Had Pancakes, Woffles (Strawberry), Egg Whites Omelet....Very fresh & Tasty. Excellent Location
A great place to have breakfast beside the sea. Very busy in the morning, expect some 10 minute as waiting time. Great service; DJ served us today, he was very helpful and pleasant. We had tried the classic egg Benedict and Eggespectation omelette and both were delicious. We ended with classic pancakes and that gave us the sweet which we were craving. Must try indeed.
