Unfortunately, the hotel I stayed at during my weeklong visit to the Windy City did not provide a solid breakfast, so I decided to break the bank a bit and...

Not to be dramatic, but they gave me the most perfect eggs benedict that I've ever had. Large portions and attentive service even on a busy Sunday brunch...

Great menu tons of options. We went on a Sunday morning and they were very busy we got right in. The staff all works very hard to accommodate everyone. I ordered the Denver skillet. It was supposed to come with ham and I got bacon. The coffee was very good and a man was always coming by to refill the coffee and water. Very friendly and the food was very fresh.

Nice cozy place and the lady serving us was very sweet. We went with the specials and that's where things went downhill. First, there was no mention of the price of the specials on the board. We ordered the French toast and the steak skillet. The steak was so rubbery that it was difficult to chew. It was not the best. The French toast was decent but it wasn't sweet as you expect from the French toast. The coffee was decent, not good. We also added the apple pie and it was extra sweet. This is something that was way too much for the breakfast. The shocker came at the end when the bill came out to be $72. I still can't process the steak skillet my wife had which was all chewy was freaking $28. She said she wished she had the Dunkin donuts sandwich across the street. My French toast also seemed overpriced. Two stars only for the warm welcome by the attenders.

The most amazing service I’ve ever received at any restaurant ever. Audrey was absolutely busting her tail throughout the morning rush, Jorge was completely on top of everything despite them being understaffed that day, and the food was absolutely impeccable. We couldn’t have asked for a better breakfast, all around. After the rush cooled down Audrey even took time to get to know us, recommend places in Chicago to visit, introduce us to the owner - just incredible. We greatly appreciated the conversation and hospitality. A complete must for any Chicago trip!
