Overview

About Eggslut & the Project

Eggslut is a chef-driven restaurant brand founded in Los Angeles in 2011, built around elevating egg-based dishes. It has grown from a single food truck into an internationally recognized restaurant brand across the US, Canada, the UK, Japan, and other markets.

Rather than competing on menu variety, Eggslut built its identity around one everyday ingredient — making it memorable enough to stand out in a crowded restaurant industry.


Design Deliverables
