"Our dishes arrived quickly, but they were lukewarm. The sauce was unnaturally thick and lacked any depth of flavor. It was bland, rubbery, and totally devoid of lemon, butter, salt, or even a hint of Tabasco or Worcestershire sauce. It looked like a ghostly, anemic pale yellow goo, hiding numerous flaws underneath. The French bread underneath was soft and not grilled, while the poached eggs, although cooked correctly, were barely above room temperature. The spinach promised on the menu consisted of just two tiny, crumpled bits of green (smaller than a dime) atop the eggs. The thin slice of smoked turkey that covered the bread was still refrigerator cold. The small fruit cup was unremarkable, and the four tiny potato cakes, about the size of silver dollars, were hard and inedible, resembling hockey pucks. One even shot out onto the floor when my wife tried to cut it.
The manager came over as we were finishing our “meal” and asked how the food was. After we shared our thoughts, he asked why we didn’t say anything sooner. I replied that we never had the opportunity, and he quickly disappeared, never to return. Our server was friendly and did refill our drinks before the brunch arrived, but she never checked back after the food was served. Obviously, she wasn’t the cook.
We do NOT recommend the Eggs Benedict at Dexter's. At $11, it was particularly disappointing. Please consider trying something else. This was our first bad experience at Dexter's, despite having tried nearly half the menu. AVOID the Eggs Benedict at all costs. I'm sorry to say that their version is truly awful."
