For the past four years, this place has been a must-visit every time I’m in Chicago. Even if I haven’t been here for two or three months, the staff still recognizes me, which always makes me feel right at home. A friendly “Hi guys!” and my orange juice is practically ready before I even ask. 😉 Considering how busy it is every time I visit, that still amazes me. The breakfast isn’t the typical European or German style—and that’s exactly why I love it. The food is always delicious, beautifully presented, and the service is fast, friendly, and attentive. I’m already looking forward to my next visit. Highly recommended! Greetings Sven
Amazing! The best breakfast / lunch / brunch in Chicago. The place is nice and really good service. We didn’t wait and the good was delicious and fast. We’ll return everytime.
Wow!! Loved this place. Service was amazing and I had the best Chilaquiles I've had in a long time. I definitely suggest adding the Chorizo and our server made the great suggestion of going with the red sauce. So good!! They have a great front patio. I'll definitely be back next time I'm back in Chicago.
This is the absolute essential family diner that every neighborhood should have but sadly does not. After getting to know the staff and owners, I legit wonder if love changes flavor. Their extensive menu is nothing crazy but everything is phenomenal. I would say the Cream of Chicken Rice soup is just how my grandma made it but to put bluntly, it’s waaaay better than my or any other grandma could have made (i’m sorry). Order it if your sick and it will do wonders
We went on a friend's recommendation and I will be back. Great selection of breakfast and lunch options. The prices are very reasonable and the service was great. I ordered the veggie omelette which came with potatoes and your option of bread. It was delicious as was my oat latte.
