Great experience here and will definitely be back! We waited around 20 minutes to be seated at 9am on a Saturday which we were very pleased with.
Food was great but word of caution, the servings are absolutely ginormous. I have a pretty big stomach but think that one plate of pancakes could easily feed 2-3 people. Never seen such ginormous stacks of pancakes in my life. But no complains there! Everything was delicious and everything we expect of a good breakfast!
This was such a nice breakfast spot. We had a plethora of options and all were delicious. I was so pleased with the generous portions and the quality of food. I had the corn beef hash with eggs and hash browns, and their specialty banana with chocolate chips pancakes. I also got their blended espresso with caramel. It wasn’t terribly strong coffee tasting but very good!
There was a bit of a wait for seating, but it is well worth it.
I would go every morning on my trip to Chicago is how much I loved their breakfast! First place we tried on our visit and it did not disappoint.
We showed up without a reservation being that they only reserve upon arrival. We were seated immediately for outside seating. It was 38 degrees outside but I didn't even notice because of the heaters they have outside.
Inside seating would've been a 20 minute wait but we were so hungry!
The vanilla latte was so warm and tasty! And the blueberry pancakes with syrup were addictive.
For my sides I ordered scrambled eggs, pork sausage links, and hash browns. Delicious!
They have turkey options also which is nice.
Our server was sweet and attentive. Would definitely give this place a try!
This place definitely lives up to the hype. I got the classic Signature Berry Bliss Crepes and they were to die for. I usually end up with leftovers at breakfast places but that wasn't going to happen here 😂 would definitely return, there are SO many menu items I'd want to try! Get there as early as possible to avoid a wait.
It's super crowded due to their famous and high ratings, however, I'd like to point out that although they are nice and friendly, I still felt like rushed out of table because there were a long line of waiting - which I completely understood. I tried so hard to finish the two eggs plate with corned beef, and house special pancakes and I received my bill right away, they didn't even want to double check with me to see if I want to order anything else(which I actually did want one more oatmeal) I usually give 5 stars for this quality but I'd like to balance out a little because there are surrounding brunch restaurants with good quality but relatively lack of customers.
Delightful (but crowded) breakfast spot.
TL:DR
You will wait for a table here, and it's worth the wait! Delicious omelettes, pancakes, skillet dishes and seasonal fare make this a great option!

Chicago friend recommended this place, and it was a perfect suggestion. You can tell how popular it is by the constant groups of people waiting on the sidewalk for a table. Line moved quickly, and we got seated in 20 minutes.
It is loud inside, but not so much that you have to yell at the waitstaff. And the staff was great! Accommodated every request and kept us happy.
Food was amazing. Cinnamon roll pancakes, omelette, Corned beef hash skillet... all rich and hearty and delicious!
Pro Tip: Portions are HUGE! Plan to share. Saves money and you will be filled up, I promise.
Overall, a must visit in Chicago!
It's a great place to have breakfast, and if you’re a big breakfast eater, this is the place to do it. The servers were nice and friendly. Also, the place was busy; food came out within 5 minutes after placing the order. I got a caramel latte, which was delicious.
Fun place for a hearty breakfast just north of Millennium Park. We arrived about 10:30 am on a weekday; no wait to be seated.
My husband enjoyed a Signature Omelet with hash browns and pancakes. He added a side of veggie patties, but the three small patties were too spicy for his taste. Would skip these next time since the omelet items were so filling.
I loved the Strawberry Almond French Toast. Truly the best french toast I've ever had - thick slices that were cooked well, but still really moist. Lots and lots of almonds, too. With the creme anglais, I used barely a tablespoon of syrup on the last bites of the meal.
We had excellent service from our server, but also from a person refilling coffee and another person clearing plates.
The Mexicana Skillet was SO FREAKING GOOD!!! I would come back for that magical food :0)
Their signature Berry Bliss pancakes were amazing as well!
Another two favorites were the Hot Apple Cider with whipped cream and the Honey Hazelnut Toffy coffee!
Inside was crowded but plenty of seats. We came on a busy day but only waited about 15min.
Service was friendly and decorations were cute!
It’s a great date idea to go ice skating at Maggie Daly park and then come here for a nice meal :0)
Amazing food and fast service. The line can be very long during peak hours, so be prepared for that. There was no line during my 9am breakfast, but it started getting super busy afterward. I ordered the southern eggs benedicts, and they were super delicious. Their waffles were also tasty, and there were a few varieties to choose from. Definitely recommend this place for breakfast and brunch.
