I’ve always seen “fried egg” refer specifically to an egg cracked directly into a hot pan with the intent of keeping the yolk intact. “How do you like your eggs?” “Fried.” means not scrambled. You might be more specific and specified a “doneness” from sunny side up to over-hard.

Interesting. The waitress did ask him to specify.
