Dali's Cafe Presents Eggstasy

Eggstacy Cafe in Oakbrook Terrace

We have a group of ladies who meet monthly for brunch, and this is one of our favorite places. They have a separate room for groups, but can also accommodate groups in the main area.

The food was, for everyone, very good and properly cooked and seasoned. We did have a few slight problems with the wait staff, but they were quickly rectified, and with a smile and apology. I would recommend this restaurant for breakfast to anyone!

Breakfast Heaven interesting and different breakfast items.

I’ve traveled so far to 45 states and found very few places that really make an effort at coming up with interesting and different breakfast items. The menu was the most extensive of any restaurant I have eaten at that specializes in breakfast. The service was great and the food….wow. The pumpkin cheese cake pancakes were outstanding. I loved Dali’s special omelet - just spicy enough.

The décor is cute and the menu is full of eggcellent puns. I’ll be back in the area in a week and look forward to another visit.

BTW my favorite breakfast spot is Norma’s in NYC which costs 2-3 times the prices at Eggstasy.

not the best service, by far!

I went to Eggstasy the other day with my mom. I've been there before quite a few times but it was my moms first. I had told her that although the service is always pretty slow and not the best that the food made up for it. Boy they did they make me look stupid. We had the worst experience ever.. not only are the services completely clueless about the menu, they will not accomodate you at all. Not even the so called "manager." I will say that there food is pretty good but after going so many times and the service is still the same, I had to call it quits. The place is beautiful, the decor is unique and simple but unfortunately the service ruins the place. Wish they would train up these servers a little better and maybe tell them that when there standing by the computers texting, customers can see them.

i understand its mothers day, but they couldn't manage their staff or tables. letting parties sit for hours and lying to customers who were waiting. only go if you have a day to kill

My absolute FAVORITE breakfast place!

by BobNSara at Citysearch

I'm shocked to see ANY negative review here, and not surprised at the other extremely favorable reviews. This place is run by my other favorite bfast place-Dali's Cafe on Main St. in Downers Grove. The menu is incredible, very fancy dishes bursting with flavor, huge portions, super friendly staff always eager to share what their favorite items are on the menu. You know you're in a great place when the staff gushes over the food, and has a hard time deciding on their favorites. They are also very accommodating with special requests. For example, they have a salmon and cream cheese omelette on the menu, which is very good ("fluffy" is an understatement!), but they gladly let me substitute and order a salmon/spinach/feta omelette, which is the best darn omelette I HAVE EVER HAD! Plus, they let you substitute the pancakes that come with the omelette for a small version of their super special dishes for $2.95 extra, so I had a small white chocolate raspberry pancakes order to go with my omelette...holy cow, there ought to be a law, or a back room with cots for napping!

Seriously, it's hard to imagine anyone not purring over their food in total amazement. You gotta try both places for the most unique experience, great people, food, and ambience. I just can't wait till warm weather, to take this breakfast experience outside on the patio tables, as we have for a few years now at the Downers Grove restaurant at their sidewalk tables.

• Pros: Extremely friendly staff, special requests okay, the FOOD!
• Cons: Becoming too darn popular...so allow for 15-30 minute wait.
