The South Loop has changed a lot since this 24-hour diner opened back in 1939. But the simple menu of eggs , bacon , pancakes and more has not, and we hope it never does. Read more

This place seems to always be busy, but for good reason. It's absolutely delicious! I recommend the pancho villa omelette . Great flavors!

LaMecia Butler

I recommend the CJ plate for chicken and waffles . Good amount of food at a reasonable price. Their egg whites aren't shabby either. Milkshakes were a hit with other diners even in 30 degree weather!

One of my cities best all night spots. You like Chicken and Waffles try the #PhatBoy (5tenders 1belgian waffle 2 eggs & 3turkey sausage patties ) I prefere turkey bacon

Elliott Cable

Man. They're friendly , open 24/7, and certainly have delicious, artery-bursting diner-food … but the music is motherfucking atrocious. ಠ_ಠ

Lenora Cravens

I personally love the country fried steak and potatoes . It’s so good. But you really couldn’t go wrong with anything you pick on the menu.

The waitress calls you doll, hun or honey . You’ll let her call you whatever she wants if it means getting some of the—hands down—best diner food in town Read more

Alan Samlow

The hamburgers definitely are not.😒 They have a weight put on & come out like shoeleather .1/2 lb. The thickness of a sole. Should have asked for gravy . Pie excellent!

Kevin Kelly

Their chicken and waffles are great, but they also have great skillets and comfort food . I love their BLT Club.

Stacy Taylor

Great service, great food. The pics in the menu are not appealing but the food is delicious and reasonably priced.

Meatloaf was tasty and moist. Corn seemed frozen not cob. Mashed pot were fresh. My girl had the Grecian Tilapia ..said it was ok. Hash browns nothing spectacular. Cool vibe. Good service

Heather Folsom

The hash browns , sausage gravy , & the cream of corn soup were all great. There's a decent amount of metered parking north on canal .

Dustin Haley

Great diner that's open 24/7 and serves up some good breakfast . I'm fond of the French toast !

Marcia Williams

This is the place to come for a well done, crispy fried, yolk broken egg . Perfectly cooked and delicious.

Late night diner . The chicken & waffles with eggs and has browns on the side get the job done

Classic downtown diner food . They never close. Get the Midnight Train , the Patty Melt , or the American Chilaquiles .

The Philly steak sandwich wasn't full of flavor like I hoped, I'm gonna try something different next time

Soups are housemade every day, soup du Jour is fairly consistent except during lent. Killer cream-o-spud on mondays

If you come in after one, sit at one of Teresa's tables, she's awesome, love her!

The salad I got was alright but the veggies were clearly out of a can and the country fried chicken was horrible. there was more gravy then chicken on my plate . Not recommending this place.
