I have a gluten, dairy, and soy allergy. My husband and I have tried a variety of pizzas throughout texas. However, this one has by far been the best one. The owner even took the time to chat with us! Best place, I would give it 20/10 stars.

This place is fantastic! My wife and I are vacationing in Corpus and are so glad that we decided to give Chops and Eggs a shot. The food was amazing, the presentations were beautiful and the staff was on point, friendly and accommodating. The comments about this restaurant being expensive for what you get are crazy! The portions are HUGE! We actually ended up splitting the Chorizo Hash because we didn't think we'd be able to finish an individual meal ourselves when looking at the plates of other tables (and we were glad we chose to split). Those commenting as such are way off base. The tables are tight together, but the way I see it, it just keeps me from having to sit outside on a wait list as they were really busy when we went, but we were able to be seated right away. The staff was quick and meticulous about clearing vacant tables when people left to keep the flow going. And I'm positive if there were any issues with our meal (and there weren't) they would have worked to make it right, then and there (so no need for bad reviews people! Speak up!) this is a nice restaurant with a lot of options for everyone (vegetarians, gluten options, kids etc) and we would definitely eat here again anytime.

I believe the recent reviews were too critical. My friend and I visited from out of town and always choose Jersey Mike's because my friend has a gluten intolerance. The staff was excellent. The person taking our order asked if the gluten-free bread was due to an allergy or preference, and when we mentioned it was an allergy, they went above and beyond. They prepared the meat and cheese separately, sanitized the boards thoroughly, and even changed gloves. I was extremely pleased with the level of care they took to ensure my friend's safety with her meal.

Definitely the best pizza oven in town. My wife has to eat gluten-free and they do offer a gluten-free option which is quite good (you can’t even tell it’s gluten-free). Pizza size is more than adequate and the choiofor ingredients plentiful. Their Caesar salad is excellent. We often order online for pickup, but also dine in.

A real jewel in the area! The service is excellent, the food and drinks are great too. They don’t have many gluten-free options but plenty vegan dishes. The desserts looked AMAZING and my niece verified 10/10 delicious. Only advice to the owners would be to continue working on the restroom and gluten free options and y’all would truly pop. 🩵

This little place was an actual D’lite! Hosting over 20 Girl Scouts (pre-planned), and rocked it. The whole place was clean, there was plenty of room for everyone, and the girls loved the ice cream! I tried the rocky road which tasted much more rich than the regular chocolate I ended up getting. The chocolate was very light tasting, because of the healthiness of their ice cream, I didn’t feel full but happily content with my portion. Their prices are insanely reasonable and our gluten free kiddos were included too.

I have a gluten intolerance. When I ordered my sub with gluten free bread they made sure to clean everything before making my sandwich. A lot of places won’t bother doing so. So I appreciate the effort they put in. Thank y’all <3

Can't say enough good things about this place! They have gluten free bread! And they were SUPER accommodating to our party when we brought our own corn tortillas. They heated them up for us for our orders of tacos. The Baja shrimp tacos are SO good. Will be coming back for sure.

Friendly staff. They were closing in 20 min. They did not rush us or appear impatient that we were there so close to closing. My son is gluten intolerant, the young man changed gloves and took precautions not to cross contaminate him. It would have been a miserable trip home if he had not.

Food, service, atmosphere & bathrooms were all nice, good. What the 33 represents is pretty cool too. Wish I was a beer drinker looking at others with their COLD beers. Please add a few more meals, maybe a beer too, that aren't loaded with gluten, that would certainly bring me there again! Thanks!
