Luci's at the Grove - Scottsdale Dining

After a long-anticipated wait, Luci's at the Grove opened recently. We had already been to and written about Luci's at the Orchard, and were excited to try this new outpost closer to home.

Luci's serves breakfast and lunch and also has a Coffee Bar that has extended hours along with the market.

As you enter, there are large video screens with the menu items as well as the market area where you can get drinks, snacks and candy, cold items to take away, gift items, books and much more.

As we anticipated, there were quite a few people there, but the line moved quickly and we were able to get a table right away.

The menu has a good balance of light and healthy to more hearty options. On the breakfast menu, you will find traditional items like pancakes, omelets, French toast, breakfast sandwiches and burritos and more. Plus, there is a good selection of power bowls to choose from.

For lunch, you can order a salad, sandwich or burger or simply have breakfast for lunch.

When we visited, we tried a few breakfast items and a salad.

My personal favorite was the "Nadine's Eggs in a Nest" which was two pieces of buttery sourdough bread with eggs cooked into the middle. The bread was outstanding and was a perfect backdrop for the eggs. It came with generous servings of bacon and breakfast potatoes.

My daughter is a French toast fan and ordered the Funky Monkey French Toast which uses cinnamon monkey bread as its base. She absolutely loved it and was reluctant to share a bite with her mom. ;-)
