Family Restaurants near Elmhurst, IL

“A very unassuming place, that serves the best food at probably the cheapest prices anywhere. The owner and his adorable wife, are both from Albania. She speaks Albanian & Greek and excellent English. The husband stays back in the kitchen creating the excellent food and the wife serves patrons out front. If you're not on a particular diet, and just want some good old-fashioned wholesome diner-type food, this is place.“

“Hi View will always hold a special place in my heart. My husband has been taking me here for nearly 10 years, and he has been going since long before that. I’ve never had a dish here I don’t like. My favorite things from here are the soups (specifically the cream of chicken rice and French Onion) and the chopped steak breakfast with chocolate chip pancakes. Their pancakes are the BEST ever and I swear by that.
The servers are extremely kind and always interact with regulars. When I was on a liquid diet prior to and after abdominal surgery, they were kind enough to strain soups for me so I could still have something to enjoy. They take care of you like family and that’s why I’ll always support Hi View.

Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly! High chairs and kids menu!

“First time at Lola’s, first off holy cow they were busy however the staff did an amazing job! The service was on point taking into consideration that they were slammed the whole time we were there. I’d recommend this place to anyone looking for a good dining experience.“

“Friendly staff and delicious fresh food. Thanks for all the great service. Surprised us with a delicious browned blueberry muffin with banana and whipped cream on my hubby's bday. Loved it!“

“We love this hidden gem! The food is great (highly recommend the veggie sandwhich and the chilaquiles), and the service is outstanding and consistent. My son has a lot of dietary restrictions and they are very accommodating. We come any time we get a chance for breakfast or lunch!“

“Corby was a wonderful waitress. She served me a beautiful waffle. Highly recommend her as a server. Very friendly and delicious food!“

“Took my family to MAS-ICNA convention and stayed at Hampton Inn next door. Gave Krave a shot. Probably 1 of the best experiences I've had in all of Chicago. Courteous, caring, comfort, and everything good in between. It gave me comfort that owner was of same background as I was to so that's a cherry on top in itself.

Food was top tier. Portions are beyond generous. Staff extremely thoughtful. I can't speak enough praise about this place. They deserve their success and so much more. This is my go to spot when I come back down again

Thank you akhi and company. God bless“

“Very friendly and good food! Highly recommend stopping in for breakfast.“

“Won't be back and certainly Do not recommend. whatever you do, don't order a meal that includes stuffing. stuffing was the consistency of oatmeal. mushy and had something that resembled mini grapes?? I honestly don't know what that ingredient was. never in my life have I seen that. waitress didn't know what it was either. Waitress asked if I wanted something else instead of the stuffing, but came back and said they wouldn't exchange the side dish. Within 45 min, we both have upset stomachs and bathroom issues.“

“Great food and fast friendly service 😊“

“We love this little neighborhood gem!!! Jackie is the best waitress we've ever had there... maybe one of the best we have ever had since moving to Chicago almost three years ago!!!“

“I work overnight, and mugs has came through for me a numerous occasions. In regards to quality food and quality service. Today, I was unable to drive to pick up my orders. I placed Uber order delivery. There was a significant issue processing my order and Uber ended up charging me $30 And canceling my order. I went back-and-forth with Uber to no avail, I spoke with the young lady at the restaurant and she was able to rectify the situation. I had to go pick up the pizza which I absolutely didn’t mind. Kudos To the customer service efforts at the front desk.“

“I go to Cafe Mirage every time I visit Chicago, after it was recommended to me by friends who had already been there. In April and May this year, I was there several times. There is a nice atmosphere inside and especially outside. The hygiene is at a high level, the food is very tasty, and the staff is pleasant and kind. Drinks were good as well.I absolutely loved it . Can't wait to go back.“

“Everyone was friendly and quick! Food is always tasty. Highly recommend.“
