I order from this place every weekend, and I haven’t experienced any complaints so far. The waiting times can be a challenge for me, as I’m naturally someone who struggles with patience, but I understand that everyone is human, and sometimes you just have to wait a bit longer for good food. It's all part of the experience, and I appreciate the quality of what I receive. Overall, I find it well worth the wait!

Egg King Cafe. I love Old time Diners . This a true Greasy Spoon. Food is AMAZING. Just be prepared to wait for dine in or take out. We dined in. Order at the counter first. I love The Friendly Memphis Hospitality. 1st visit I had the Chicken Wings n Waffle. My wife ordered the Ultimate Hashbrowns. They included bacon and sausage with bell pepper and onions. Biscuit and sausage gravy was amazing. Also put gravy on the hash browns. Perfect. Prices are reasonable. 2nd visit , more Sausage gravy n biscuit. Wings and waffle. This time had the King omelet. That consists of chopped steak, bell pepper, onions and tomatoes. Really good. Also got a tshirt for 15. If you're visiting Graceland , great place for breakfast to get your Graceland visit started. Only about 1 mile South on Elvis Presley Blvd.

This was my very first visit to the Egg King Cafe. I must admit, I had the most delightful experience. I was promptly greeted and seated. My waitress was so very friendly and a pleasure to talk to. The menu has so many great selections to choose from. I ordered the waffle, sausage, eggs, toast and grits with coffee. After just ending a fast, a hearty breakfast with all the trimmimgs was in order. My food was delicious! I observed the activity in the restaurant. The owner was busy making sure that every customer was attended to and satisfied. I saw him walk through and personally pickup small pieces of paper off the floor which was very commendable. I also love the amount of seating availability. EKC offers both dine-in and takeout and is open daily from 7am-3:30pm. Come on down to the Egg King Cafe at 4458 Elvis Presley Blvd.

I ordered an omelet through the online ordering and when I received it, it was made incorrect. I went to the restaurant and explained my omelet was made incorrect and the gentleman said no problem and they would remake it. They remade my omelet and I was very pleased. My food was delicious and the service was top tier. Even when you don't have a problem free visit, interactions like these make the problem simply minute. I would definitely recommend.

Want that Waffle House feel but in Whitehaven? Look no further than the Egg King. I read the negative reviews but something told me to still check it out for myself, and I am glad I did. Turns out my cousin works here. I had the Egg King Special. My bacon was crispy how I like it without me having to ask, eggs scrambled with cheese was perfect. Grits were perfect with added sugar. Black owned and customer service was great. Don’t hesitate to try for yourself, and if your experience was good please leave a review as they are vital for new business success.

Amazing breakfast sandwich. Be aware before ordering: they're using plastic, single serve utensils and carry-out containers. Could be tough with fork-heavy dishes

Other than the wait time I experience. Everything was great. The food was worth the wait. It was Mother's Day morning so I wasn't expecting superfast service. But the staff was nice and professional. My food was over the top. I would highly recommend 10/10. I had an omelet with hash browns
