The Eye Opener

My friend and I enjoy trying out local breakfast restaurants, so we decided to try out Eye Opener yesterday, 03/12/22! The restaurant was spacious, and the staff was friendly. I ordered The Morning Sunshine Omelette with a side of bacon. The food was tasty and affordable. Naturally, the restaurant was busy. Because of this, it took time to get refills on beverages, which is totally understandable, considering it was a Saturday morning! Even though the restaurant was busy, we did not have to wait for a table, which was awesome. I will definitely come back and support this business in the future!

Went here a few weeks ago and nothing but great vibes. The breakfast was phenomenal! At peak times it does get pretty busy, but for a good reason. Everything was cooked to order, and the staff are friendly and on top of the service. I didn't have an empty glass unless I specifically mentioned, and they even offered a to-go as well, which many places do not do. The prices are reasonable as I didn't go over $20 even with the order I had. Service: 5 stars Atmosphere: 5 stars Prices: 5 Stars Seriously recommend this place.

Disgusting I had an omelette with spinach, peppers,onions and jumbo crab was watery and bland, biscuit was dry and over baked, toast was burnt, no butter in grits, potatoes were not good even the coffee was nasty my boyfriend asked for bacon on the side they cooked it in his omelette didn't ask if he wanted like that he clearly asked for on the side...customer service was okay the seating is very close together no one was wearing a mask but one waitress that brought our drinks..I don't think I will ever go back

I would like to say the food is awesome. My review is about poor service. I placed a to go order, I stood at the cash register for almost 10 minutes before I was helped. It was like I was a ghost, there was a female off to the side eating her breakfast as If she was a customer, this woman stopped eating walked right past me and went to help a coworker. The woman returned to her plate and started chomping away, I was like wow I think I’m really invisible. Someone finally showed up to assist me after I watched an employee eat her food in my face, then she had nerve to stop eating and assist the woman helping me. Long story short, I don’t care how good the food is, I won’t spend another dollar there. They need to work on customer service, please don’t blame it on short of staff, there was plenty of help, they just don’t help ghosts!

My wife and I decided to visit this spot for the first time on a Sunday (day before Valentine's Day) at around 11 am. We were seated quickly. Not the cleanest place, as others have said, but nothing egregious. Mimosa was delicious, coffee was standard fare but good. If you like being warm while you eat, maybe wait until a table opens up towards the back of the restaurant, because it gets chilly when patrons open that front door and that blast of winter air hits your legs. We left our coats on the whole time as did many others. Owner should consider installing an air curtain to fix this. Case in point, when I looked at their thermostat, it was set at 81, but showed a cool room temp of 69 degrees. Food took a while to arrive, but they were pretty busy. Our server was nice and did a good job. My wife's EO Breakfast Bowl with ham was good, with big pieces of potatoes that made for a fairly large portion. My Red Eye Hash included their delicious corned beef and spicy, but smaller portion of potatoes with green chiles. I'm a spicy foods fan, so, to me, the EO Bowl needed hot sauce (they had Tabasco and Cholula on the table - nice), but the hash was perfection as-is. We ended up ordering the blueberry pancakes to share at the end. They were nothing special, and the regular syrup that accompanied them did not come heated up. There is an option to choose real maple syrup for an upcharge. A warm, clean dining room and some warm syrup with less waiting would have made this a five star review. That said, we would definitely go again, and, as much as I'd like to try something new, the hash is probably what I'll be ordering. It was so good!
