Egg Yaki

Omg! This place is freaking delicious! And the owner is always really nice!I love the Rock on! It comes with shrimp! I continue to say I will try all 3 egg options but each time, I get the Rock On! I love the crispy onions and the green onions that come on top. I like to eat it alone but mixing it with rice and a bit of soy sauce is fire! It's a small little spot inside of the market. Right next to Aboveground. So, don't miss it.

UNION MARKET, WASHINGTON DC - Definitely worthwhile. The wife and I, wandering around Union Market on a Saturday midday, confused and unable to decide on what to get, as is our way as indecisive Midwesterners, saw this and said 'bingo,' because why get pho or bbq -which one can get at a million places, no offense to the fine pho and bbq options at Union Market, when you can get Japanese-ish omelettes?We got the What a Fungi ($12), with mushrooms and a peppery mayo. It was a hefty omelette, as the two of us had come in to Union Mkt planning to get and split a couple different things and ended up just mowing down on this tasty beast, covered in scallions and crispy onions. Food came quickly. Staff was pleasant. Next time I'd skip the $4 side order of steamed rice as we didn't even finish it and it was not a big addition taste or experience-wise. Whole thing was very much a 4.5-star food hall meal experience. Shall return.

I decided to try Egg Yaki for brunch, and I was impressed by how large the serving sizes were. I got the Funghi omlette, and it was enough for 3 meals. I literally could only eat about a third of it. It would be great for sharing. I loved the brussel sprouts more than the omlette. The brussels were tossed in a sweet sauce and they were perfectly crispy.

A newer stand in Union Market, Egg Yaki sells what's like a giant omelet. I ordered the "Heart & Seoul" and it was excellent. It comes with one giant omelet with crispy shallots, green onions, yuzu mayo, and kimchi. The crispy shallots add a good crunch to it. I ordered a side of rice but you don't need it. The omelet is filling on its own. On a Sunday afternoon, my meal was ready within 7 minutes. Not a bad wait at all!

SOOOOOO good. This place knows the right ingredients to make a delicious meal. Highly recommend the Rock On omelette with rice. One of the best things me and my partner have ever had. We couldn't get enough. The owner and chef are really kind too!

This is a can't miss spot at Union Market. After a full walk around of the entire market my friend and I decided to spend our breakfast money here. The shrimp egg yaki is a clear winner and pro tip, get the side of rice to go with and it's a perfect shared breakfast! Small stall with a short list of options but that's how you know a place gets it right! I will say though that it was so good we went back the next day for the same meal and this time the rice was a little undercooked. Since it's made in a rice cooker, I had to dock 0.5 stars. I will say that the first day was a Friday and the second day was Saturday so all the cool neighbors were out and about doing their weekend thing. Very neighborly vibe and not noticeably touristy which is a plus! So 4.5/5.0. A definite must visit!!

Ahhhhmazing meal at Yaki Egg! How am I the first to yelp this place? Had the Rock On omelette and ate every bite (it's huge). Generous serving of rock shrimp that are cooked perfectly. I was afraid the mayo and unagi sauce would be too much, would overpower the egg and shrimp, but not at all. It was perfection. Fast service too. Go!
