Raven JohnsonJune 9, 2013Someone told me they kicked him out for being rowdy, but when I, clean & normal, walked to grab leftover food off tables, they gave me chili & a drink! A great way to secure future business and the- Raven JohnsonJune 9, 2013A great way to ensure someone will eat in future,if cheap,or recommend to friends! Perfect discretion should be used by all businesses... HELP the normal&remove only actual problems! Thanks,Clarke's!
Zak HillJune 30, 2015Really cool vegetarian-friendly menu. Large breakfast portions for a reasonable price
- I had the Mexicana Burger with chorizo and it was AMAZING! On the side was steak fries (with cheese lol) and a Hot Toddy---best Bulls game day meal ever!!
SamanthaAugust 6, 2011I had the vegetarian chilli & it wasn't too bad, but would certainly benefit from some spice of some kind. But I had a really sweet waitress who made the experience all the more enjoyable.
Codi PalmNovember 29, 2014The food is excellent, most of the time I'll order breakfast food no matter what time it is. Ripped up seats but no complaints.
Joni LupoNovember 18, 2013Place really needs more than 2 waitresses on a busy Fri night. But food did come quickly and it was very yummy.- By far, the best place to go after midnight when you crave that late night snack. Their breakfast selection is fantastic — try the French toast.
Dan KleinApril 8, 2011Try the new Tiesta Tea they are carrying, it is super flavorful and high quality. Much better than their old teas!
Adam WagnerDecember 7, 2013The Jumbo English muffin is a perfect size and tasted wonderful with butter and jam.- Dan KleinApril 12, 2011Try their Tiesta Tea Fruity Pebbles it's a great green tea! Great to see loose-leaf tea on the menu
Amy LynnJanuary 23, 2013Their music selection will make you wanna cry. It's all older R&B love songs.
Salads are as big as my head. Such a tough choice between breakfast food or a burger on a pretzel bun.
Their omelets are some of the best I've had. Always my breakfast food go to place.
Nikki JursichMay 15, 2013I have been coming here for years now and the food is great but as always, the service is absolutely horrible.
The San Diego Club and the Yee-Haw are my favorites.
Arthur WiechecAugust 30, 2010had the ham sandwich with egg type bread, very good i must say!! a perfect in between breakfast/lunch type food.
James HowaldJanuary 28, 2012If you want good service, head to the Lincoln location. But if you want diner food in this area of Lakeview, this is your only choice.
Lindsay AllenAugust 16, 2009Suggested for breakfast: The French toast. Best I've ever had! Suggested for lunch/dinner: The specially seasoned California turkey burger w/sweet potato fries.
Try your burger on a pretzel bun with sweet potato fries. Delicious!
Pat LeeMarch 24, 2013A previously-undefined circle of hell. Makes IHOP seem like fine dining by comparison. And no, being drunk doesn't help. It makes the skankiness and poor service even more unbearable.
I stopped in today for a Grilled Cheese Sandwich & a glass of Root Beer. My craving was satisfied.
$2 domestic drafts always! Ask for Simon. Best deal in city.
Riley YorkJanuary 8, 2012The staff here treats the customers much nicer than the arrogant waiters at nookies.
Nate RJune 10, 2009arrive by 1:30 am and order large for last call. you'll beat the rush and get to relax with the last drink.
Andrew McGuireNovember 29, 2010Bring a credit card, you'll need it before ordering, I guess eggs are expensive and someone ate 1 and ran off.
