Customer Reviews

★★★★☆ 4.0 T Williams · Dec 2025

Nice restaurant with friendly staff. So far this is the only place that serves real wheat/multigrain bread! Jose was very attentive. Cons: fork was dirty with old food, waited 25 minutes for the check after finished eating, and orange juice didn't taste good.

It was my first time at this restaurant & was not planned my guy suggested we’d stop in for breakfast. Very nice establishment, the food was great! & the BEST of all our waiter Mr. Jose! He was extremely pleasant, made sure we were okay the entire time & didn’t miss a beat. I’m 40yrs old & work for the largest hyatt regency in the world for 16yrs now. I make a living when it comes customer service for over 20yrs… Mr. Jose deserves a raise or higher position if possible. Thank you.

Great comfortable breakfast joint along the chaotic Cicero Ave. Bacon is perfect. Meaty and cooked to perfection. Done and not a board. Not a big pancake guy, but when in the OG. Service is fast and friendly. Eat here and it will make Cicero Avenue less painful.

Great serving sizes. The waiter was really nice and the food was better than expected. Actually it was really good. The grilled jalapeños on the side added the perfect amount of spice The potatoe pancakes were too soft for my liking. The eggs were scrambled well and the corned beef hash had a nice flavor. I would return because it was clean had a good atmosphere and great service and overall good experience for breakfast

We got a $75 take out order. When my husband went in it wasn’t ready on time, not a big deal. When we got home we didn’t get the pancakes we ordered. When I called and told them, they accused us of lying. I don’t need to lie about $12 pancakes. The food was mediocre, there wasn’t anything special about it. We asked for sausage patty’s and we got links instead. Overall, staff should be a little more respectful to their customers.
