    The amount (and quality) of food I got for the price is.... well, unbelievable.

    See the pictures - those cinnamon rolls are SIDES. Not a meal - A SIDE. And you don't just get one side with your meal, but two....

    One mean could easily be shared by two people - or you'll have plenty of leftovers for later.

    Normally I steer clear of cinnamon rolls but Ann Sather cinnamon rolls are one of a kind. Gooey frosting and cinnamon with every bite.

    It's beyond packed in here on a Sunday morning around 10am and there isn't really adequate space to stand around and wait for a seat, so come early or late.

    OH MY GOSH.  I had one of the best breakfasts of my life this morning.  This was my first visit to Ann Sather, and I left very satisfied.  The diner was packed - we had to wait about 10 minutes to be sat.  While we waited I stared at all of the delicious-looking food coming out of the kitchen.  The pancakes, omelets, and French toast looked amazing.  

    I was incredibly satisfied with what I ordered: Southern Decadence.  Two flaky, buttery biscuits topped with homemade sausage patties, poached eggs, and creamy sausage gravy.  It was absolutely perfect... perfectly seasoned.  A touch more salt and it would've been too salty.  The poached eggs were executed perfectly as well.  Not an easy task to do.  The meal was served with my choice of two sides.  I ordered the cinnamon rolls and fresh fruit.  I took the cinnamon rolls home because there was no way I could eat all of that food.  The fruit was good.  I liked that there was a variety of kiwi, cantaloupe, blueberries, strawberries, honeydew, and apple.

    My handsome date had the Swedish waffles drizzled in syrup.  They were scrumptious and cute (they were heart-shaped).  They're thinner waffles - not Belgian style.  Obviously.  Belgian waffles in a Swedish diner?  I don't think so.

    Amazing customer service and you can't beat those cinnamon buns and pecan buns. To die for. Drop in even to get one to go.

    OK.  So I know Ann Sather isn't the newest or hippest place in town, but let me tell you, it's a solid go-to.  I went in a couple weeks ago and was once again reminded of what a great diner Ann Sather is.  Went in and was seated right away at a two top, coffee was offered up and refilled so it never went cold.  I wanted an omelette that sort of kind of resembled something they had on the menu and the waitress not only let me substitute, she encouraged and suggested - with a smile!  I had a delicious egg white omelette with artichokes and broccoli.  Never to be upstaged by the cinnamon rolls which are to die for and brought out as a delicious brunch appetizer.  Everything is good, everything is standard, everything is quick and easy.

    It's my favorite brunch spot in the city. Their omelettes and cinnamon rolls are the best part in my opinion. I used to go here weekly when I lived in the neighborhood, so it has a special place in my heart. It can get very busy, but the service is efficient and the servers are nice.

    Brunch at Ann Sather is ALWAYS a good idea! The cinnamon rolls are indescribably delicious. Not only are they cheap and huge, but they'll pack them up for you in a nice bag to go. If you're looking for a classic breakfast selection, Ann Sather is perfect.

    Cinnamon rolls: OMG so good! So much sweetness and I can feel the diabetes coming on. So good. Definitely share it! The bun part is nice. Moist and soft.

    For brunch, I ordered the avocado delight wrap ($9.95). practically everything on the menu comes with 2 sides, so I got fruit and hash browns. The wrap comes with their house guacamole and eggs and cheese. Personally, there was just TOO much egg in it. The egg wasn't scrambled. Instead, it was made into a sheet. It was probably made of 3-4 eggs. I wish I had asked for just egg whites. I had to take some of the egg out for my sake. Everything else about it was good though. Hehe. It was really big! I only finished half.

    The fruit was great. They had a wide variety: watermelon, cantaloupe, honeydew, kiwi, strawberry, pineapple, blackberries, grapes, etc. I hate when you order a side of fruit and they only have 3 different fruits so this was great.

    The hash browns were not what I expected. They were just potatoes that were slightly mashed and seasoned. The flavor was there but the hash part wasn't. I was expecting fried potato yumminess, but instead got potatoes.

    Service was amazing!

    Went for breakfast to Ann Sather's on a quiet Saturday morning.  We were immediately seated and greeted by our waitress.  The service is incredibly attentive and outdoes pretty much every place we've tried in Chicago as far as attentiveness goes.

    I would pretty much second other reviewers' comments about the cinnamon rolls.  Clearly, they are the Ann Sathers specialty and completely delicious!

    As far as the other breakfast food is concerned, we were mixed.  I had simple scrambled eggs and my guest had a bacon and cheese omelette.  We both found our meals to be average, not worthy of a return visit though admit the portions are huge.  This place is a great value, but maybe you have to stick with pancakes or the waffles to be truly wowed.  The main issue with the breakfast was really the sides, mostly the hash browns.  If anyone at Ann Sathers reads this, please update or re-make the style of the hash browns.  They were just diced and seasoned red potatoes and added nothing to the meal.  More appropriate maybe for a Thanksgiving dinner.  I also tried the Swedish meatballs and thought they were okay but average.  Have tried much better Swedish meatballs at a few different Swedish restaurants in New York.

    Overall, a nice experience and fun to visit the home of the famous cinnamon rolls!

    Still loving this Broadway location. Smallish and can get crowded, but the servers seem friendlier than Belmont (although Belmont servers are efficient, for sure). The omelette continues to be the go to egg dish, pick your type. Sides: I insist on sharing a cinnamon roll order (two big rolls) and either fruit or tomatoes. Skip the hash browns...not going to be what you expect. Coffee is good. Suggest you go before 9 and avoid the line on weekends...people sleep in around here but when they decide to get out of the house, it gets really crowded with a wait. Hint, if you have a cinnamon roll left over (and I suggest you should) they freeze really well.

    I have been wanting to eat here for so long. Finally ate there this morning, and was not let down. Everything I put in my mouth was delish. The service was deserving of five stars. My friend and I ordered two different omelets and shared: the V-4 and garden omelets were both superb. As far as sides go, two words: Cinnamon rolls! I look forward to coming back and trying another good dish.

    I have been waiting TOO long to try this place out - to my surprise, Ann Sather is located suuuper close to where I was visiting friends. After my friend suggested going there for breakfast, I couldn't refuse! Upon arriving, the staff was extremely welcoming when we were greeted and guided us to our table.

    We all started off with some coffee which we desperately needed after a late night of craziness. My friends ordered the waffle with strawberries which looked great although I didn't taste it. Another friend ordered the Swedish pancakes with lingonberry jam, which was amazing! The lingonberries are similar to cranberries and were sweet and delicious! I went for the crab cake benedict, which comes with two sides! I chose the cinnamon rolls after hearing several people raving about them and the hashbrowns. The crabcakes were large and delicious. They crab cakes were packed with flavor sitting on top of toasted english muffins with poached eggs perched on top finished with a rich hollandaise sauce. The portions are very generous and I ended up having to take the majority of my dish home. The cinnamon rolls definitely lived up to and surpassed my expectations. One side of cinnamon rolls consisted of TWO HUGE rolls...these came out first and even with three people, we weren't able to finish them...probably why I didn't have room for the rest of my food. The hashbrowns were just alright...I like mine to be crispy on the outside so they were a bit of a letdown for me, but everything else was incredible.

    Service and staff were impeccable. My water and coffee glasses were always filled and they were constantly checking in on us to make sure we were okay. As a bonus, they packed our food up at the end. I like that shit.

    Overall, this is an amazing breakfast or brunch place with great portions at affordable prices. If anything, stop by and treat yourself to the HUGE cinnamon rolls!

    It was just ok...I don't understand why there are so many outposts of this restaurant. Was expecting a lot more given its popularity. Just your standard fare American brunch place - huge portions at reasonable prices. The famous cinnamon bun is a sweet bomb, though the texture is nice when it was warm. Biscuits are nice and fluffy too. Coffee was very weak.

    Love breakfast , love the vegetable soup. incredible... salmon,
    dill dressing on house salad...yum...good, wholesome food and coffee with cinnamon rolls for dessert.
    It is an eat and get out kind of place as there r always others waiting.
    We brought a bottle of wine to enjoy with lunch ... Burp!  Outstanding.
    Friendly hostess on the weekends . I think she is related to Ann? She has got it going... well done. Organizes the crowds. I had a job like this it is not easy.... Finally , a great staff,  everyone. Manager and hostess should move and fix Belmont  Ann Sather now... Needs attitude adjustment.

    This is the place to eat when your really hungary. You get so much food. Cinnamon Rolls are a plenty, but I really like the Garlic Dill Rolls. If your eating breakfast try the Smoke Salmon & Dill Omlet, you will be full when your done, it's huge. For lunch it's the Roast Pork Sandwich, or there Chicken Salad with has Dark Meat in it. This is the only place I know that does this. Wait staff is great, very helpful when your not sure what is in something. Great place to bring children, they do have high chairs.

    Ann Sather was a good place to grab a bite for breakfast. I had heard about the cinnamon rolls from a friend, so I had to order them as my side. They did not disappoint. The cinnamon rolls are fantastic! However, the rest of my breakfast was just average. I ordered eggs and hash browns, so it was nothing special. I wish that the menu was a little more extensive. My boyfriend ordered the breakfast burrito, and it was huge! He loved it and could only finish half of it with his other sides.

    The menu was definitely fairly priced, which is great for a breakfast in Chicago!

    Once upon a time I was known as the Cinnamon Roll Girl because I wrote in a bio that the thing that had me most excited about my move to Chicago was proximity to Ann Sather's cinnamon rolls. These things are seriously perfect: just the right side of moist, the dough is delicious with just the right amount of sugar and cinnamon. Sometimes I go to the Austrian Bakery and get a cinnamon roll there and they're good, but nothing really compares to Ann Sather.

    True, it can get insanely busy, but there are a lot of tables and they usually move through the list pretty quickly. And, true, the other breakfast options are nothing to write home about, but they're perfectly fine and, if you're like me, you're probably just using them as a vehicle to get the cinnamon rolls anyway.

    Protip: Most breakfast options come with two sides. Make both sides cinnamon rolls, but ask for the second side in a to go bag. That way you wind up with a second free breakfast and you get to experience the joy all over again in the comfort of your home.

    After an event filled weekend in the city, my girl and I stopped by here to grab some late breakfast. She can eat breakfast any time of the day, I know a lotta folks like that.

    So we ordered standard fare like omelets, breakfast meats, fresh fruit, toast, juice, coffee, and their OHHHHH SOOOOO good Cinnamon Rolls. From only knowing the vending machine cinna-buns and other processed garbage, I'm use to despising this overly sweet treat. However, Mrs. Sather's made me rethink my disposition towards the infamous Cinnamon Roll.

    The rest of meal was solid. Noting too inventive, but the entire meal was well executed. I can't say there was anything I didn't like.

    9-8-12 Brunch with friends.
    Not really a brunch place so much as breakfast place.  The menu is pretty average as far as offerings especially if you aren't wowed by a large variety of benedicts.  

    I got the eggs and potatoes--which were good or really just not screwed up because ultimately eggs and potatoes have limited potential.  Note: order the hashbrowns cripsy or they will be mushy.  Also beware of "applesauce" on the menu because it is not actual applesauce.  Its overly sweetened and soft apple wedges like something you would put in a pie or a turnover---not something you would want to eat by itself.  The cinnamon rolls were great!  
    Big plus is that its BYOB with no corkage fee and a super friendly staff that opens the champagne for you!  They provide both half and full pitcher options of juice that is not too pricey.  
    All in all its not really a destination brunch but if you are in the neighborhood  (which is easy given the multiple locations) and want breakfast, its a solid option.

    Timing and price: We went at 10:30 on Saturday morning, didn't wait for a table or really for service and for 4 people the brunch ended up being about $65 (including the large quantity of juice to go with our 2 bottles of champagne).

    The food is average. Yes, the cinnamon roll is good, that's about it. The food was luke warm, was not impressed with the slice of cheese that was not melted on top of the eggs.

    maybe they are just not ready for prime time in this location.   The eggs were cold, the potatoes were skimpy.  When I wanted to purchase 2 cinnamon rolls and requested a box instead of a bag I was told a box wold be .35 extra- are you kidding?  Then extra sugary glaze for the cinnamon rolls was also .35 additional.  The air conditioning was hardly working.  I'm not saying I won't go back but they could be more customer oriented.

    Two words - cinnamon roll; I also got the Swedish pancakes which were delicious and devoured in minutes.

    It is gonna be busy for breakfast/brunch over the weekend, but the 15 minute wait wasn't too bad on a Sunday afternoon. Wait staff is good, no complaints.

    This morning I awoke hungover and hungry, in desperate search of sustenance. I told myself that I couldn't eat Al's Italian Beef for the fourth day in a row, alas I stumbled upon Ann Sather.

    On a Sunday at noon, I expected a line, or at least a wait. I was pleasantly surprised to be seated immediately. The service was very attentive; I could instantly tell that it was a tight-run ship.

    The menu has your typical breakfast fare, as well some delicious Swedish specialties (potato sausages, lingonberries, etc). Most menu items come with two sides such as hash browns, fresh fruit, cinnamon rolls, homemade apple sauce, and cottage cheese. I ordered the Crab Cake Benedict, and it was superb.

    A warning though: the cinnamon rolls are devastating. I mean, they bring you two of these mammajammas, and they are huuuuuge. They are absolutely delicious, perfect texture, consistency, and richness.

    All in all, a great breakfast experience. Extremely fast, fairly priced, and top notch quality. Will be back!

    On Sundays when brunch places are packed and wait times are 45 minutes, you just want to find a nice place to get a good breakfast!  Welcome to Ann Sathers on Broadway! (apparently some other locations are not good)

    It is bustling with people and you can smell their famous cinnamon rolls as you come inside!  Even with a crowd of people they always have accommodated my group!  I never have had to wait more than 5 minutes for a table on a Sunday in the middle of brunch rush.  (That, my friends, is quite a feat)

    The menu is filled with a mix of breakfast/brunch items from your standard poached eggs and bacon to french toast & sweet favorites of the famous Rachael Ray.  The cinnamon buns are a must try, and come as a side item for most of the entrees.  The biscuits are also delicious and made fresh on-site.  

    I enjoyed the smoked salmon Eggs Benedict with a side of fresh fruit the last time I was there but everything they serve hits the spot!  It definitely is a quick fix to that brunching desire when you wake up on Sunday mornings!

    Ok... Ok, I know what you are thinking... Didn't she review Ann Sather's before?  Yes, but that was the one on Belmont.  The one on Broadway is like a whole 'nother world!  

    I've been to this Ann Sathers a few times.  It's not been super crowded and seating is usually fine whenever I've been.  Everyone is so friendly at this one.  And the food comes so quickly and is just perfect.  I ordered one of the special wraps listed on a little card thing on the table and got cinnamon rolls and fruit on the side.  I figure that balances it out, right?  My cinnamon rolls came hot to the table two seconds after we ordered.  I scarfed one down immediately and held off on eating the other.  My wrap came and it was the perfect combination of cheese and egg and veggies.  Mmmm...  I took half the wrap and a cinnamon roll home.  It was the perfect dinner that night.

    Oh my goodness.  The cinnamon rolls are to die for!

    The boyfriend and I stumbled across this place totally by accident and I knew that we had to eat there since this is on my list of places to eat at in Chicago.  I'd heard about the cinnamon rolls and I was dying to try them.

    And needless to say, they did not disappoint.  You get two HUGE rolls as part of a side dish with your entree.

    I had a sausage and gravy meal with a side of cinnamon rolls and fruit and he had the inferno omelet, which he enjoyed as well.

    We went pretty early so it wasn't crowded, but was starting to get crowded when we left so we didn't linger.

    Cons: Street parking can be difficult and since the restaurant is somewhat small, it can get crowded.  Plus, we were sitting in the area by the back wall with the booths and that can get pretty tight.  Also, the wait staff seemed somewhat rushed and not as friendly as I would have liked.

    However, I would definitely would be back for the cinnamon rolls alone.

    Ann SAther is by far the best brunch/all day breakfast joint in the area.

    The food is fresher. The service is better (minus my last five minutes there) and the menu has unique offerings which you will not find at other breakfasts places in the area.
    So what do I mean by these unique offerings---well cinnamon rolls, of course plus other tasty concoctions! My friend ordered a cinnamon roll as one of her sides ( two sides are included with meals) and it was absolutely positively scrumptious. But you;ve already heard about them from other yelpers so Im switching to another topic.

    I noticed that people who gave the restaurant three stars or less did so because of the wait time. Well if you get there before 10 on a weekend you're fine. Don't forget the reason you are waiting is due to it's unique offerings.
    Now was Ann Sather's the best brunch experience ever? NO. But like I said before, this joint is the best in the area.

    I'm almost finished. promise.

    Went to the cashier to pay. My friend and I wanted to pay dutch. Well that's where we got some attitude from the man behind the counter. There was nobody behind us in line to pay so really he had no reason to get moody or anxious. That's where Ann lost the star.

    I would give it a try, especially if you live in the hood and get there before 10-11 on weekends.

    Cinnamon rolls - do I need to say more?

    This property is smaller than the flagship restaurant on Belmont, however, the food is just as good.  Pretty much during the week, there is no waiting for a table.  On the weekends, plan to wait unless you arrive early.  

    The restaurant has an artistic feel with cement flooring and graffiti art on the walls.  Very cool.    The breakfast entrees are just as good as the Belmont restaurant.  
    The service is great and friendly.   The food and prices are fairly decent.

    Since this restaurant is only open until 3pm.  Regarding parking... good luck finding street parking.  Another great Lakeview breakfast place.

    Maybe I'm not a brunch person but I really want to try to find a place that has something special about their brunch.

    Ann Sather is good but overall, just any ordinary breakfast place.

    What I had:

    Bagel sandwich
    Nothing too great about this sandwich. Just your typical eggs with bacon wedged between a bagel.

    Cinnamon bun
    Tasty but it was a bit too doughy for my liking. An order of this does serve 2 people easily. They are huge!

    Swedish Pancakes with Lingonberries
    Chewy and different from your typical flour-y pancakes! I enjoyed these. My roommate even bought the mix for it from Ann Sather! The berries were a nice addition!

    Fresh Fruit
    I have to say their fruits are quite fresh!

    Eggs Benedict
    My boyfriend had this and he thoroughly enjoyed it!

    Close and pretty good breakfast.  The cinnamon rolls are a must.  Go to Starbucks for coffee though.

    Street parking only which can be difficult in Lakeview.  Hopefully, you can walk there.

    Oh Ann Sather, you sweet little gem of a darling... How I wish you had locations in New York so I could sink my teeth into your sweet, gooey cinnamon buns prior to digging into my Steak & Eggs.

    $10 for steak (tenderloin, cooked perfectly!), Eggs Benedict, toast, and two cinnamon buns? Wow. What a steal! BYOB makes it a ridiculously reasonable brunch option too.

    Service was excellent. We had a wonderful waitress who brought us fresh out of the oven buns. Won't lie though, I almost laid her out when she played baby games with my cinnamon buns. DO NOT POKE THE BEAR.

    Really though, this place is great. Glad I got to experience this Chicago favorite during my travels.

    I honestly really like this place - despite the sometimes rather long waits outside just to get a table on weekend mornings.  

    I enjoy the menu.  Coffee served is fresh and tasty (Intelligentsia I think?)  The fresh squeezed juices are great too - just over-priced.  A favorite of mine are the Cheddar Bacon Potato Pancakes served with dill sour cream.  I also like the wraps, eggs Benedict (though a better job of poaching could be done as to not overcook the eggs), and of course the sweets.  The best reason to go here is the side of two HUGE cinnamon rolls.  They reheat well in the microwave too!

    The reason I won't be going here anymore deals with their owner, Alderman Tom Tunney.  Tunney is the chair of the City Council's Economic Development Committee and is bound and determined to bar Chicago food trucks from being able to cook in their own trucks.  Sorry Ann Sather, you just aren't too good to BOYCOTT!

    Not gonna lie, I'm not a fan of breakfast food. I think paying $8-10 for a couple of eggs with gravy is a little ridiculous because they seem so simple and cheap to make. Ann Sather, on the other hand, is a different story. Their food actually looks like they're worth paying money for (in contrast to my local pancake houses). Everything looked fresh and nicely presented. All their egg entrees come with 2 huge sides that almost seem like a meal in themselves. (I didn't realize that when I first chose my dish). Their cinnamon rolls were really good. The hash brown was more like diced potatoes, but still good and well seasoned regardless. I got the traditional eggs benedict which were good but almost too simple. I guess I should have ordered something more interesting. Service was also fast and attentive for such a busy restaurant.

    Overall, it's a nice breakfast place that serves breakfast food. Eventhough I'm not usually a fan of breakfast food, I enjoyed my meal there.

    What would a trip to Chicago be without at least one of Ann Sather's cinnamon rolls? We went on a Monday so we didn't have to wait an hour for a table, and it was not unbelievably loud.

    The server was a bit pretentious, but I didn't really care because the company was good and the food was delicious. I had turkey sausage, eggs, fruit and biscuits. It was standard breakfast fare, but it was done really well, but those biscuits! Oh my! They are the best thing on earth made of yeast...other than the cinnamon rolls, of course.

    The prices are great considering all that you get with a breakfast, and it would be worth it to come here even if it is just to get biscuits or rolls to go. I would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Chicago and residents alike.

    I eat hear all the time and, honestly, it has to be my favorite place to go for breakfast/lunch/brunch. It's low-key but good quality and total comfort food. Everyone knows that the cinnamon rolls are to die for but their other food is really good too. I highly recommend all of their pancakes including the swedish pancakes, whole wheat pancakes and potato pancakes. Waffles are light and delicious too, dusted with powdered sugar. Their omelets are pretty fantastic as well, as are their breakfast wraps (egg white and bacon = two meals for me that won't put me into a food coma. All of their egg entrees come with 2 sides which is awesome. Pecan rolls, assorted muffins and biscuits round are there if for some crazy reason you care to pass up the cinnamon rolls. Portions are huge and I never leave here hungry.

    The staff is AMAZINGly friendly and nice. Always on their game, never over-bearing and always willing to bend over backwards to give you what you want.

    It can be a bit crowded on the weekends but that's kind of part of the atmosphere. Sitting close to people (but still allowing enough personal space) allows you to view what everyone else is ordering and make mental notes to order it next time.

    Everything on the menu is incredibly affordable. You definitely get your money's worth here.

    Holy crap is this place amazing!

    I love the food here and unfortunately (or fortunately for my waistline) I don't get to come as often as I used to.  I used to spend a lot of time in this area, but not so much anymore.  Now I have to make special trips to see Ann.

    Everything I've had is great but can you say cinnamon rolls!  Mmmmm....

    This is the closest breakfasty place to my work. And as I love breakfast for lunch (and dinner) I've been here countless times over the past four years.

    They close at 3, so get your order in before that! The cinnamon rolls are pretty famous. I found them to be delicious for the first two years. Now, I'm tired of them and actually never eat them :(
    The wraps are my favorite thing here. The eggs and avocado and peppers are really fresh, and the fill up that wrap to the brim. It works as half for lunch and half for dinner.
    I usually order to go, and find the massive to-go bags kind of embarrassingly american as I walk with it to work. (the bag is the length of my legs.)
    Sitting in is cute, and the servers are friendly.
    The potatoes that come as a side to many dishes are great, too. Big and chunky and full of flavor.

    In a lazy, bullet list style, my food musings:

    Cinnamon Rolls: Really, really good but not amazeballs. They use a creamy vanilla frosting which is interesting, but it's a bit low on cinnamon.

    Hash Browns: Not good or bad, but mislabeled; it's really a baked potato that's smashed up in a bowl.

    Swedish Meatball: Not bad, although  a little goes a long way. I'd be interested in getting  Swedish Meatball Aficionado to rate these (do those people exist? I'd like to think they do).

    Swedish Pancake: Very unique - I have never had one this light and fluffy. It's a cross between a breakfast crepe (it's slightly sweet) and a thin pancake. Pretty good with the mustard they have in house.

    Fruit Side: I asked for it...my bad.

    Apple Cider: Boo, tastes like Jewel pasteurized cider. Sorry.

    The service and atmosphere were great for my first time through. We were seated quickly on a busy Saturday morning and everyone who worked there was friendly. It had a good neighborhood vibe.

    Finally tried this place after walking by it daily.  It was jam packed on Sunday morning when we arrived.  We had to wait for about 25 minutes.  It was worth the wait.   This little restaurant is fantastic.

    I had one of their specials.  It was a potato pancake with jalapeños, cheese, and bacon in it.  Anyone who knows me, knows that potatoes, jalapeños, cheese and bacon are my favorite foods, so I was in food heaven as I scarfed down those pancakes in a record amount of time.  

    Even though I was in a food coma, I managed to steal some of my boyfriend's breakfast, the French Toast Fantasy... It was simply that, a fantasy.  The menu states that it is recommended by Rachel Ray.  It was incredible... Be ready to indulge in the ultimate french toast fantasy.

    The biscuits are also some of the best I have tasted (and I grew up eating biscuits and gravy in the south).

    People rave about their cinnamon buns.  Ehhh, nothing special.  I suggest going down to Phoebe's a couple shops down if you want an incredible cinnamon bun.  

    All in all, an outstanding breakfast.

    What it lacks in comfort makes up for in hilarious pratfalls and delicious, fattening food.

    There are novelty restaurants out there. Have you ever wondered what it'd be like to dine on a CTA car or stationary #156 bus? Well, this Sunday it felt like it, since we were repeatedly jostled and shoved sitting at our table by servers and patrons.  A table of two pretty girls were sat less than 3 inches from us. We were so close one kicked my purse and feet.  She said with marked regret, "Well, I can't tell you what happened, it's too dirty!" while she eyed us. The server jostled my companion, spilling his coffee!  She asked if she burned him, but wasn't even all that shocked or surprised by the incident. I asked for extra napkins for our messy, pig out session and even in spite them being placed in the middle of our table they were flung to the floor in a moment by the manager darting past.

    Oy the server! I've served and did very well at it, so I'm really not the average Joe I guess. But she didn't know what came with my meal or any menu items. When I asked her innocently, she became flustered. This made me feel flustered in front of my companion.

    The food was dope as heck, like always, and I pigged out even more than my date, like always. It is a GREAT place!!! I will go again and again, for the cinnamon rolls alone. I just wish it wasn't crowded so much. All the menu is delicious and inexpensive,  I just don't want to get bumped by server's hips, elbows, or butts every 2 seconds, not have my date get coffee spilled on him, or hinder other patrons pillow talk cuz I'm inadvertently up in their grill.

    The wrap, rolls, and Reuben rocked my taste buds like a world class escort anyhow.
