Lumes Brunch Cafe

"Cappuccino was luke warm at best. Omelet was very bland. Absolutely no seasoning. French toast was dry and over cooked. Atmosphere is hospital cafeteria vibe. Overall disappointing. Will not be back."

"First time in USA and we were so lucky that we find accidentally this restaurant. We order the Lumes burger and many other things from the menu like veggie skillet, and pancakes. We came in a rush hour but the service was impeccable. I order the burger medium well and it was cooked perfect. We also meet the owner Ms Betty who was very polite and helpfull. At the end Lumes is a place that anyone must visit when arrives in Chicago."

"As our first experience at Lumes, we walked in to find a large line. We requested a table for two and ended up waiting longer than groups of 4 who arrived after us. The food was delicious and we cannot recommend it enough, however there were a few downsides other than that. The water glass I was initially given was smeared with egg and potatoe, and then I was given the wrong food when it came out. The waitress was very kind about it, and got me the correct food, but it does not excuse having to wait extra time while my girlfriend sat with food infront of her. Additionally, their syrup is a bit strange. I couldnt put ny finger on what was different about it, but there was an option to upgrade to full maple syrup for an additional $2.50, which seemed strange to me. In conclusion, the food was great, but the experience was not."

"Decent breakfast. Comparable prices and quality to Blueberry Hill as far as skillets and standard breakfast goes. I'm not personally huge on the asthetic, it looks more like an IKEA than a home-cooked breakfast place, but I know many people like the industrial look, so to each their own. Service was STELLAR. We had the nicest people asking how we were, including waitresses whose areas we weren't sitting in, so they're definitely going above and beyond with service. I'll be trying their lunch menu next time I'm in and updating my review."
