Sanders Restaurant

Even on Mothers Day The service was excellent!

I eat here when i stay at the excellent Holiday Inn next door and eat dinner several times and breakfast every day of the one week a month I am in Chicago.    The dinner cooks here need to learn how to cook chicken until it is thoroughly done. Even after specifically requesting well-done chicken, it was raw by the bone with an overpowering amount of oregano. Go with the pork chops instead. The breakfast cooks are much better and Donna or Bubbles will take excellent care of you! Go for the homemade rice pudding (which is as good as my grandma used to make) rather than the desserts that are brought in and served WELL PAST when they are dried out and stale.

After being a regular for some time, it seems the last several months it is going downhill.  Busboys not refilling beverages regularly, waitresses seem bothered to do so. Rolls wrapped in plastic, a good thing, but many have tasted day old lately, probably because not as busy as of late and remain an extra day.
Seemingly new crew of waitresses over the past several months, service is ok, but waitresses there now act as if doing you a  favor--nothing is gracious to you anymore . Need to fix some things, or regulars will find elsewhere to go.  Serving soup not filled to where bowl should be filled, so waitress won't spill carrying it? C'mon we are paying for a bowl not a 3/4 bowl, scared to say anything to waitresses, they may do something to rest of your food.... eh can do better, just may have to drive a little, but seemingly feeling worth it as of late.
