Reviews
"Another exclusive review by yours truly Gammal Diaz. Place is huge but the plates they serve you… are even bigger. One of the highest rated breakfast places I have been to in Illinois. All my followers were asking me to review this place and here I am. We had a great waitress, she’s was very thorough with taking our order. We ordered the country fried steak (gravy on the side) and the sugga momma which was their version of chicken and waffles which had hot honey on the chicken breast and sugar pearls in the belgium waffle. The meals were huge and definitely worth the price. The only thing I can say is that both meals were delicious and full of flavor especially the sugga mamma, all the flavors mixed so well. Sweet and salty at its best. 10/10 they earned every review they have on there."
"This breakfast place is so amazing. I can’t even find the words to describe how delicious the food and coffee was. They really nailed down the southern chicken style and it was absolutely amazing. I am so happy I found this place. Our server was super nice lady and on top of her game. I enjoyed everything about this place. If I could give 10 stars, I would. Plant of parking since it is part of a development. Got seated right away and the restaurant was super clean and fairly busy. We did get our coffee after our food but we did have water and everything came really fast. Just an excellent experience!"
"Good place to go and get breakfast or lunch if you're in the area. The establishment is clean, bright, wide open and nicely decorated. The service was very slow even though the place was practically empty. Food was average at best, definitely not what I was expecting from a restaurant that has multiple locations. I guess I'll have to try their lunch menu if there is a next time."
"The food is great - amazingly large portion sizes too, enough for a second or even third meal. The specialty pancakes are worth the upgrade charge. Always friendly service and plenty of hot coffee. Only complaint is the acoustics are terrible - so many noises, hard to hear a person at the same table. But when the food is this good - you just nod and pretend you can hear or you ear in silence!"
