This was my first time visiting Chicago and I decided to come here because who can mess up on waffles right? So I came here the bananas on my waffle was bad mushed like the old bananas when they turn brown I made a complaint and literally the whole restaurant staff was eyeing me the entire time I remained there I will never ever recommend this place it was so unprofessional and food was so nasty I paid for it but that’s what I get for going against the place I really wanted to go to food is nasty employees are rude and nasty pick somewhere else don’t waste your time….here’s a upload of the picture of the nasty bananas I am a very very happy person me and my daughter even made a dancing video here but we will not post it on our social media to help you with customers the problem is restaurants like u think your entitled and that’s why u didn’t have any customers in there look at your review comment lol you treated me bad because you thought I had an attitude that I didn’t have especially not with you why would it be I don’t even know you so your employees was giving me an attitude based off assumption so sad the customer service comes from the overhead which you don’t seem like a good one I have plenty successful businesses if something wrong take it into consideration not offense and a reason to treat a customer with disrespect I pay like I weigh I didn’t ask for a discount just good food which your restaurant doesn’t have be blessed! Listen we danced before we experienced the food and nasty customer service you guys are rude and look how you reply no one started giving dirty looks until I complained your food nasty get a better cook that’s all I mean I am pretty I don’t mind people looking at me but the dirty looks is uncalled for yes please look at my profile so you customers know where not to go to I can make fake profiles and comment on people stuff but I’m not ashamed to blast businesses who don’t know how to do business or run a business or treat customers like they are the reason why their business remain now according to my 5 star businesses I run pretty successful ones maybe you should stop trying to defend your unprofessional business and look at ways to improve again be blessed

I had Chicago waffles delivered to me via Door Dash, so I can't comment on the service of the restaurant. Although they were very quick in preparing my order. I had the chicken and bacon waffle - which looked phenomenal in photos, and in real life was not very good. The waffle was very soggy (which was probably in part due to me having ordered it), and the chicken was extremely chewy and hard to bite into. I was expecting the chicken to be crispy as it appeared in the menu photos, but that was definitely not the case. The bacon was undercooked and very chewy as well, and the flavors just did not go together very well. In addition they only gave me one small thing of syrup, which was not nearly enough for this waffle. I also had the "eggs your way". Again it was cold when it arrived, which isn't the restaurants fault. But the potatoes were way too mushy and felt quite undercooked. The egg was just ok - I ordered an over medium egg and received an over easy egg. The sausage links though, were phenomenal. They had a great flavor to them. I also ordered a mocha, which was literally half full once it was delivered. I wasn't very impressed with the mocha, it tasted like plain coffee with a little bit of chocolate syrup in it. Overall: not the best experience or quality of food. Would definitely not recommend the chicken.

Very good, nice outside seating but we didnt want to wait for that. We saw a line outside the door and thought that it was going to be awhile but the wait staff were very efficient and we were seated quickly on a Sunday afternoon. I tried the sampler and the boyfriend got the cinnamon waffle. All waffles in the sampler were good minus the green tea one (Blech. Not my cup of tea hehe) but my boyfriends cinnamon waffle was the best. The couple on one side of us said they didnt talk the entire meal once their food arrived because it was so good - he had the trio or something with poached eggs and it looked amazing. The woman to the right of us had stuffed french toast and said it was delicious as well. Essentially you cant go wrong! Worth a stop, well run and the wait staff are friendly and efficient!

Ordered on Doordash, so I can't give accurate ratings on the atmosphere and service. The food, however- The Waffle was fine. It was essentially what you get at a mid-tier hotel with a continental breakfast, but it's a well made waffle. The butter that comes with it is amazing, but sadly they don't give you anywhere near enough syrup. The Cappuccino was atrocious. If I'm paying almost $10 I expect a large cup of coffee or an authentic Cappuccino, not one of the powdered ones you can get from a rarely cleaned machine at a Mobil; and not a teeny little baby cup of hot water with no coffee or milk flavor whatsoever that's half filled with foam anyways. Paid extra for caramel, got none. I think I'd rather eat at a truck stop diner where they don't pretend to be flashy but actually give you what you pay for.

I so wanted to love this place because it was close to our apartment and we love going out for breakfast. But not only did we not like our food, but the service was bad too. It was only a few people sitting down, so we were seated right away. We waited 45 minutes for someone to come over to our table. My fiancé had to go ask the staff behind the counter would someone come over and they proceeded to apologize and inform him that they forgot about us. I got pound cake French toast. My food was crispy on the outside but very soggy and underdone on the inside. The flavor was bland. This was not my first time having French toast that was made of cake, so I had an idea of what the consistency should’ve been. It was however very pretty and aesthetically pleasing. Overall, most likely won’t be returning here.

1st thing - this place saved the day!!! After a horrible experience at another place where we were supposed to have brunch, this place came all the way through! Location: It's so cute on the inside, like very moms kitchen but take it up 2 notches... it's still a diner feel but very cute! Parking: we ubered Service: 10/10, it was fast and efficient. We tend to be a needy bunch lol but our server was on it with no attitude and even confirmed our orders with us. We didn't wait at all and no reservations were needed. Ambience/Crowd: no review because we were the last party Food/drink : 6/10 the food was good but not great, my friend was raving about her skillet but my omelette was just good. Will I be back? And Why - I would be back, there were so many other options I wanted to try
