El Greco

The yam fries are delicious! Plus, Gary (owner of el greco) bought me some fried chicken from Ezell’s because my friend’s boyfriend said Black people love fried chicken. Guess what? He was right. That chicken was good. Thanks Gary!

We were seated quickly and our waitress was very friendly. At a friend’s request, they made the eggs benedict without the canadian bacon, although this was only possible because the bacon was late to arrive that day. I had the avocado and pepper jack omelette with sour cream and pico de gallo. It was delicious and came with rosemary potatoes and sourdough toast. The toast wasn’t great, but everything else was wonderful. It was relatively cheap as well. I would go back.

True to the reviews by Daniel and Erik, this place is great. I went to check it out this morning, and everything we got was fantastic. I am a fan of the breakfast sandwich and this one was awesome. And, I love a constantly full, hot, cup of good coffee, and they didn’t disappoint.

I love the color of the walls, and almost painted my wall the exact same color… until I realized that it wouldn’t be nearly as cool at my house (maybe because of the size, and the light, and the lack of black beams). I did buy a granada blue shirt though.

Actually, I have different breakfast joints for different moods and dishes. But El Greco is the shizzle! Stacy and Gary own the joint and it’s a delight to visit on the weekends for breakfast. Great lunch and dinner, too. I consider this a food haven on Broadway—there’s just not that much good food on that part of Capitol Hill.
