My wife and I were in Chicago for Paul McCartney concert and we were walking near our Airbnb. We saw John’s place and stopped in. I had the cowboy burger. It was one of the top 5 burgers I have ever had and I’ve had a lot. I really recommend it!!

Great local breakfast spot in Roscoe Village! Cute interior and a ton of covered outdoor seating in the summer! The French toast sticks are a must to split with the table and I had the John’s scramble but swapped for brisket- so yummy! The breakfast quesadilla and burritos are also great choices. Can’t go wrong here! Fun twist on some classic breakfast items is always appreciated.

Stopped in for brunch today. The staff all around is so absolutely wonderful. Food was really great, they truly have options for everyone without having an overwhelming menu. Highly reccomend the silly donuts and the salmon board. Prices were reasonable for the city and street parking was easy to find. Will be back!

Only complaint is they only serve breakfast on weekends. There are so many more items I wanna try. Such great food.

I have to start by saying the staff is amazing they make you feel welcomed and appreciated. We stopped there after a real bad experience with Anne and the manager over at village tap. Their drinks are good and the food is delicious.
There is nothing extraordinary about John's place. The food is typical American, with lots of carbs and no flavor. The coffee is okay, but nothing outstanding. The waitress was a little pushy to keep tables moving, although the place was empty. I do not recommend Johns.
Parking: Good luck finding a place to park on this busy part of town

Had a lunch meal with two other people. The restaurant was not busy - about 1/3 filled and they ran out of menus. The bellinis were ok. However, the fish tacos were small, greasy, and bland. The Greek salads had lots of lettuce but not much else. Expensive and mediocre. The service was good. The atmosphere I cannot rate as we had lunch outside and no one else was outside. My advice is to avoid. Maybe the other items are better. Pricey and not worth it. Look elsewhere.

We have dined at John's Place many times and thoroughly enjoyed it. This review refers to their catering. We recently chose John's Place to cater our event and the food was delicious! Often, I find event catering doesn't hold up while sitting out or is overly fussy and difficult to eat. I also find many caterers push quantities that are way above what is really needed. John created a menu that tasted just as delicious when it arrived as it did when the last guest departed. Everything was easy to eat and did not drip sauce on people's clothing or spill little bits onto the floor. John helped me to order the right amount of food. We did not run out but we didn't over order, either. I highly recommend John's Place for catering.
