Everything they do is on point. Amazing seasonal pancake specials, delicious chili, huge omelets and breakfast sandwiches, and even great salads. Super crowded on the weekends but well worth it.- The closest thing to a diner you’ll find in Chicago. Family owned and operated, cozy, and with a broad but entirely delicious menu. Wonderful breakfast sandwiches, omelets, club, pancakes, & wraps.
Tish and Paul, the mom and pop who own this joint, are terrific. She's the sergeant, while he chats with customers. Get the corned beef hash, or the turkey sausage scrambler.
Jen KaneMay 10, 2013Cute little cafe! Came on a Friday morning to work...food was great, prices reasonable, the staff is super friendly, and they have wifi! Will definitely be back.
Come for breakfast or lunch!! Omelette's are fresh & flavorful! The chicken salad is Tish's recipe & the best. Burgers also thumbs up with sweet potato fries.
Liz LemonDecember 4, 2012the smoked Gouda omelette is incredible, the portions are gigantic, and the service is friendly. what more could you ask for in a breakfast place?
Nathan RuhlOctober 1, 2013Love this place. Never had anything I didn't like. The cinnamon apple Belgian waffle is to die for.
The smoked salmon & cream cheese omelette is a Jew's dream and a goy's heavenly breakfast. Amazingly tender salmon with about a 1/2 stick of cream cheese in the middle. BONUS: fruit on your pancakes.
Mark DedowiczJune 14, 2014Very good best patty melt I ever had. Good service , daily specials on board
Evan MontagueMarch 7, 2011I've been there every weekend for about a month now and haven't found something I didn't like. Great food, quantity for the price too!- Split a sandwich. Friendly staff indeed. Never disappoints!
Reginald MillerAugust 6, 2014It was good I liked it. When I am in Chicago, I would probably go back.
Corned beef hash is absolutely top tier! Very friendly waitresses. Great coffee. Very highly recommended.

Claudia MercadoApril 3, 2011Very kid friendly place! They have toys, crayons, great priced kids menu and kids cups. My toddler loves coming here.
THUNDEROctober 14, 2011Grody to the MAX! Waitress gave us dirty looks. My eggs came out green-ish. And tell me how you mess up pancakes at a place like this... Over priced. Go to the Golden Nugget across the street.
