The Speckled Egg

Stopped by for brunch earlier today at the southside location. Nice restaurant n lovely ambience and friendly staff. We did not make reservations n couldn't get a table so sat by the counters in front of kitchen which was not bad. Had the hens hash w sunny side up tuna melt n pattys melt. Generous portions. The hens hash was v good n flavorful w mushrooms, Brussels sprout n sweet potato. Tuna melt tasted good n the portions were way generous. And so was the patty melt. Thank you for a great brunch. My go to place next time I'm in south side flats.

Slightly above average breakfast spotThe inside is a nicer vibe that makes you forget you're in the South Side. It's gonna be packed and loud which I do love for breakfast/brunch.Waitress wasn't the mostttt attentive but it was prime time and she had quite a few tables and did well in that regard so good serviceFood came out relatively fast for how slammed. The Kazaam had a good spice to it, potatoes not cooked well, biscuits good consistency, portions small, prices tad high

The Speckled Egg is a local brunch restaurant that has two locations--this one in the South Side and another one in downtown. The menu lists foods such as quiches, toasts, pancakes, salads, and sandwiches. Alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages are available. My husband and I recently ate breakfast at this restaurant. Here are my ratings for what we ordered:Orange juice - 4.5 stars - This orange juice tasted very fresh and contained some pulp.Chai latte - 5 stars - This chai latte had a delicious spicy flavor. Quiche for a Cause - 5 stars - My husband ate this quiche. It contained ham and potatoes. On the side was a salad, and my husband said that he really liked the in-house vinaigrette dressing. Please note that the ingredients are seasonal.Brown-Butter French Toast - 4.5 stars - Slices of French toast were topped with very sweet strawberry-cardamom jam, powdered sugar, maple syrup, and butter. Millennial Toast with Crab - 5 stars - This toast was topped with avocado and a generous amount of crab meat.

Finally made it and I'm so glad we did. We ordered a pretty basic breakfast, but everything was cooked perfectly and our server Miles was outstanding. I ordered a biscuit with sausage gravy and an over easy egg. The biscuit was fluffy and moist and the sausage gravy was very herbaceous and different than anything I've had before. My hubby got the standard scrambled eggs, bacon, toast & potatoes. The potatoes were a bit pepper forward for me, but still enjoyable. The toast came with a strawberry jam that was infused with cardamom. I'm excited to go back and try something a little more adventurous!

Got brunch here with some friends and everything was so good! Completely forgot to take a photo of my Bloody Mary, but it was amazing, and came topped with candied bacon which was surprisingly really good. One of my friends also got a Bloody Mary with the hot sauce alcohol upgrade and said it was well worth it. The food was amazing, our waitress was so nice, and we got everything so quickly despite how busy they were. Such a cute place, I can't wait to go back

This is such a cute brunch spot with lots of items on the menu, so if you like a variety then this is the place to go!! They also have a bar area with lots of alcoholic bevs as well. Their lox and loaded bagel was one of the best lox bagels I've had! It's def ez to make at home but I wanted to treat myself with a fancier version of it and this spot rlly hit it well. My friend got their grilled chicken biscuit and the chicken was super tender and crunchy.We came during a busy Sunday, but we got seated within 10 minutes and our server was super attentive and making sure we were satisfied with our food and service!

This place is without a doubt a Pittsburgh brunch staple. I had previously only been to the one downtown, but I may actually prefer the Southside location! They have commonplace coffee which is also fantastic. I was disappointed when my latte came out in a togo cup instead of a mug but I'll live. The server was so sweet and was very attentive. It was fairly full and we had to 15 minutes but without a reservation. The pimento cheese on the chicken biscuit was unexpectedly delicious and the honey makes it sticky goodness. Definitely will be trying some brunch cocktails when I go back!

I love this location of TSE! If you have to wait for a table, you can grab a coffee at Commonplace Coffee and wait. Definitely would recommend making a reservation on the weekends but during the week, you're probably safe. I recently enjoyed the buttermilk pancakes, fried chicken biscuit, and Lox'd & Loaded. The pancakes are always delish but this was the first time I has the chicken biscuit and toast. Omg that biscuit is to die for! The chicken was cooked perfectly and the pimento cheese was a great addition. I'll definitely be adding this to the rotation of favorites!

Good drink selection. Barista is separate from dining room but serves both. Latte could have been hotter but the Americano was good.

Decided to have brunch here a few days ago. Saw another person ordered their Hen's Hash and I knew I wanted one. Didn't realized how generous the portion was! Our server was friendly and this place gets packed especially on a beautiful day. They also do offer outside seating and is pet friendly too. I'm looking forward to coming back and trying other items on their menu.
