Unbelievable how the staff here is sooooo respectful, courteous, friendly and patient! After dealing with Chicago traffic, this place is such a gem! No matter if you're having a streak dinner or just coffee, troubles just seem to go away in there.

The food is amazing especially tge soups- Chicken Gumbo, chicken Noodle, Cream of Potato. They have great breakfast specials from skillets, chopped steak & eggs, pork chops and more. They dont have a big dessert menu. This restaurant lives up to its name- Hearty Cafe
March 2026
My partner and I come here all the time. We were so happy to find a local diner that has quick service, great food, and isn’t always super busy. Whenever we come in we are typically sat right away and have our food within 15 minutes of being seated. Tons to choose from on the menu and the prices aren’t cheap but they’re worth what you get. Music can be pretty loud is my only complaint really about this lovely diner.
