Bacon is best I've had at breakfast shop. Solid, consistent, and steady. I eat in and order to go often. Not a big pancake guy but obviously they do them very well . I love the pecan cakes
Very busy, but I was seated right away. Server was very friendly & attentive. I had a make your own skillet with turkey sausage , cheddar , spinach , and tomatoes , and it was fantastic. (cont'd)
The menu will have you drooling. I for one can't get past the Andouille Sausage Skillet with the 2 over easy eggs , smothered potatoes and pancakes . CRAZY DELICIOUS! The pancakes melt in your mouth.
Been here several times, but our server Cat really took very good care of us and made sure we got just what we wanted. Be sure to ask for Cat.
If u don't have the patience to wait then this is not the place for you they are very busy 3x as much on the weekend the chicken andouill skillets with wheat germ pancakes the staff is amazing as well
Order a skillet and pancakes , take home your leftovers if you need to, and thank me later. High quality everything here. They’re a popular spot, so be prepared to wait
The apple pancakes here are boss. Possibly the best apple breakfast dish I have ever had. Also try the steak skillet (you get more if you get it to go).
the service was implacable, and the food to die for. I let them recommend the dishes, and they did an amazing job.
My favorite pancakes ! They have turkey and chicken links for the non pork eater. Coffee is good too!
Top notch breakfast fare . There will be a line come prepared to stand not matter the day.
Everything, I love the apple pancake with extra butter with diced ham & eggs .
Swear by their Swedish pancakes , they just melt in your mouth! so does the fresh whipped butter.
The Dutch Treat is a work of art , but be prepared to wait around a half hour for it!
The wait really is crazy, but the food is great and affordable , and everyone couldn't be friendlier. You just can't be in a hurry!
The steak omelette is delicious and ask for Nicole, she rocks!
Great food, go early or expect to wait. Dunno how they get the whipped butter so fresh!
Every customer needs to complain about the waiting area. There is no area to wait. They have to make space available.
Not fancy but easy, quick and consistent. Yummy
The bacon waffles were very delicious.
The cherry crepes were absolutely to die for. Very rich, but simply amazing!
Great Resturant only downfall NO kid's menu...
Be prepared to wait, and be Patient. A good eating establishment yield Long Wait Times when YOU KNOW THE FOOD IS GOOD.
If you are willing to wait a bit longer than usual, the grand dutch babies are excellent
New location at 1358 E. 47th Street @ Lake Park is OPEN! No quiche or biscuits & gravy . Boo!
The Jr plate is all you really need with your greedy butt :)
The peach crepes are amazing!
Spinach crepes with potato pancakes
Steak skillet
The French toast is amazing!
Ask for Cat, she was wonderful!

The pancakes were good, but I really hated the syrup . It was very watery and not much flavor at all. Its a pancake house , the syrup is a major element! This made it disappointing unfortunately.
Wait time was too long but once seated service was fantastic!
Pancakes , bacon , and Coffee
Management should probably invest in professionalism & customer training for their host staff . Ridiculous.
Steak skillet is amazing!
The chicken sausage is DELICIOUS!!!!! HIGHly recommended!
Can't go wrong with the skillets . My favs, steak and western.
Pancakes oh my good!!!
Pancakes and qrits.....fye!!
Great service
Horrible service by the Hostess , 30 minutes past our promised time, and was rude and letting people she Knew say right away. Food is mediocre, this is Chicago there are bigger and better places.
Gotta get the pancakes .
Get there early or be prepared to wait a long time.
Chocolate chip pancakes and sugar cured ham ...have them
Meat lover skillet it the best
Great strawberry crepes !
Western skillet !!
The waiters are getting worse and worse I mean they should go through some type of etiquette school
Amazing French toast. It’s their signature dish. Get there early and get the super flight, you don’t be disappointed - Alison
Their omelets are the best in town. Also the steak and eggs is a great deal. - Ben
I must agree I love the grits, salmon croquettes and biscuit with peach compote. The atmosphere is a great plus as well. - LadyAnn Gee

Great museum for kids and adults. Tons to see and do. Some of the exhibits are showing their age, but all-in-all it's a good way to spend a day. - Colin DuRant
