Delivery was a little pricy but worth every penny! I ordered a gluten free 3 piece and I had never had creamed kale before! Everything was absolutely amazing! So delicious and I can't wait to order from here again.

We really enjoy The Egg Bistro. I avoid gluten, and they have some gluten-free options for me. The food is always tasty and cooked just as we like it. I ordered "2E's Two Step" and they accommodated me by leaving off the hollandaise sauce and substituting gluten-free bread. It was all delicious! We recommend The Egg Bistro to everyone!

You know you’re going to a restaurant that try’s to meet all your simple meal needs. Classic food. My grandson is gluten intolerant and they have pancakes to meet his needs.

It was a busy Saturday night, but is there ever an excuse for lumpy grits? And the individual in our party with celiac's disease (who made that fact very clear) was served a plate with fried onion strings on top of her entree. Also, no excuse!

Overall, cleanliness is bad! IHOP looks more and more like "The Waffle House," of which I have always considered a greasy-spoon... I am and continue to be a loyal customer due to the food and service being consistently good, and they are one of the only restaurants with gluten-free pancakes that are delicous!

Great service and excellent food. Server asked if it was a special occasion when we arrived and remembered when it came time for dessert. Dessert pictured is the gluten free chocolate torte. Great options for gluten free diets.

Really good food both of us ate from the Senior menu. I got add bacon tomato onion I believe and was covered with cheese, hash browns, and a gluten-free muffin. My friend ordered scrambled eggs, hash browns, toast and 2 nice-sized pancakes. Both meals we're under $8.00!! One thing though there was just one waitress for about 9 tables.

Food not as ordered, asked for a burger with no bun (gluten free) bartender blamed kitchen but obviously could not care less and offered nothing in the way of having burger redone. Burger ordered medium and was served incredibly rare and inedible. Again called to the attention of bartender and no response other than ok. Service extremely poor, bartender much more interested in talking to friend at the bar (with distasteful language) than serving customers. Please skip this place, they do not deserve your business or your money. Many better options nearby.
