Andy’s Cafe in Rosemont, Illinois is such a hidden gem! Hilda, the owner, was actually the one who waited on our table and brought out our food, which made the whole experience feel even more special and personal. You can truly feel the authenticity the moment you walk in.

One of the things I loved most is how unique the menu is. They serve a Mexican breakfast, which you honestly don’t see very often, especially done this well. I'm Hispanic so I'm always looking for those unique homemade flavors, we’re talking real, authentic flavors. It was so hard to choose but I ended up ordering the breakfast burrito, and it was absolutely wonderful. It came with sour cream, salsa, and a green salsa that had just the right amount of spice. It definitely had some heat, but that just made it even better. My husband ordered the meat lovers skillet and they came with a side of original pancakes which were really tasty. We also ordered the strawberry lechera pancakes on the side to share and wow she wasn't kidding when she said they have the best pancakes! I definitely recommend trying those! I also got a iced caramel coffee which was really great as well. There was a little crack in the mug handle but luckily I noticed it and pointed it out to Hilda so that nobody would get hurt on it in the future.

The restaurant was full, almost every table taken, which tells you people know about this place! We may not live in the area, but we definitely won’t forget about it the next time we’re back in Rosemont.

I also loved the cozy vibe. The plants, the decorations, the overall atmosphere just felt warm and comfortable. Some elements are a little outdated, but honestly that just adds to the charm and history of the space, it's been there for over 40 years! It feels like a place with stories in the walls.

The menu looks fantastic all around, and I especially appreciate their twist with the authentic Mexican breakfast offerings. That kind of cooking speaks for itself.

Thank you for the great service, Hilda! We’re already looking forward to our next visit. 🌿

When Hilda, the owner of Andy's Cafe Des Plaines, stated that they have the best #chilaquiles this side of town we were sold! And by God, the chilaquiles were fantastic! The tortilla chips were so crispy and flavorful. Layered with housemade delicious #chorizo 😋!!! This, along with the herb tonic juice and a burger and fries...tummies satisfied for awhile 😋!
What a lovely, most friendly and delicious experience today. We will be back, Hilda! It was so nice getting to know you. Prime example of what front of house and back of house should look like and beyond 🫶

Love this little restaurant. Kind of a hidden gem. The food is delicious. My go-to breakfast item is the Chilaquiles. Its probably one of the best ones I've had.

Food and price were okay. Service was awful. Never checked back on drinks unless bringing food or check. Never even looked at our table so I could wave. Not busy at all, felt like we were unwelcome. Best breakfast? What a joke. We won't be back.

This is a very unassuming gem. Inside has a skylight, warm wooden tables, and staff that are happy to serve you. I've been hearing twice now and their food has been great nothing too frilly! Depending on when you come parking might be tricky along with a wait, but I've gone on a Sunday at 9am and I had no wait with plenty of parking.

The coffee was served cold, which was disappointing, so we left without ordering anything else.
