Something about brioche and egg is very weird. The two fluffy textures don’t vibe imo

Yeah I wasn’t a fan either. It’s super hyped.

Over rated for sure.

I don’t think he owns it anymore, but I’ve never been impressed with Alvin Cailan’s stuff. AmBoy is pretty good, and he’s great on YouTube, but eggslut and his “umami burger” menu reboot is not impressive to me. I’ve met and worked with him a few times, he’s about as nice as a person could be, he’s really smart and talented but I his brands have been less than awesome as of late. Probably over extended.

Yeah. Bummer. Right? Personally, I can’t stand the bun. Should you be in the neighborhood further, nearby is Cherry Pick Cafe. The owner is a refugee from Iran. It’s perfect. Big menu, too. But they’ll make whatever you want.

I love the Fairfax. It fluffy and delicious. One of my favorite breakfast sandwiches under $10
ProTip: order for pickup on ubereats, it’s ready in 15 mins, then just walk in and pick it up. I never wait for Eggslut. That would definitely decrease my experience.

Try Egg Tuck. I feel like their sandwiches are what people are expecting Eggslut to be like.

The location near Cedars is super fast and tasty. I don’t wait at GCM but I love that little salad add on.
Vegetable_Burrito
All the same soft textures.
alphamaleyoga
Totally basic and overpriced

I’ve never been to eggslut. but I love egg sandwiches. How can I re-create at home? anyone have a formula?

The name is more interesting than the sandwich IMO. It’s a good sandwich, but never something I’d considering having again. I’d take a half decent breakfast burrito over that.

The Fairfax is good, but I’ve experienced uneven quality, like one time my sandwich was a little soggy, but the person next to me had one perfectly cooked off. When it’s good it’s good, but GCM has so much good stuff I wouldn’t stay in line for this.

I miss when Egg Slut was just a good truck outside of Handsome Roasters (now Blue Bottle) in the arts district.
Pre-hype meant the best dishes turned out with little to no wait and LA’s best coffee within arm reach.
Order at the truck, go in and order coffee. Foods ready as soon as you come back out.

For that price place should be called Eggescort

I thought it was fine, nothing amazing, but nothing upsetting.
I get people don’t like lines, but I’m obviously in the minority where a line doesn’t affect the taste of food. Neither does the price. YMMV.

Agree. Overrated.

What $29.50 will get you at many other breakfast joints..too numerous to list.
