Sarkis is a Armenian local Evanston hole in the wall Institution breakfast spot perfect for Potheads and Hangovers! But their breakfast was quick, affordable, and delicious. I got the Animal sandwich with side of cheesy well done hash brown. Also get everything on your sandwich, the combo of ingredients works perfectly together. Service was awesome and remember first come first serve tables. 100% recommend!

A bacon Loretta, hash browns & a diet coke can save your life/morning. This place is a Northside gem and has been dishing out great food for a long time. Definitely returning!

Over the 20 years I've been coming to this place, the only thing that has changed is the plating (the skillets are an upgrade) and the expansion picnic tables. I've tried every menu item, you cannot go wrong with any order, but the bacon Loretta and cheesy hash is the nostalgic staple of my adolescence. I will come back here until the day I die.

Went mid afternoon so service was fast but one piece of ham in a $10 Loretta and it's cash only but you can order online and eat there and use a credit card. Cheesy hash really greasy but Jeff's grilled cheese was good.

The food used to be better and has gotten pretty expensive. Doesn’t have the same feel as before but still worth going once in a while. Everything is pretty greasy. Get the cheesy hash.

Always bringing my beautiful wife to dinner, obviously! Sarkis blew us away with how simple yet delicious the food is. Maybe it’s just because we don’t have to make it ourselves; or maybe they’ve got some kind of secret ingredient?!? Either way, it’s absolutely flavorful in it simplicity.

She had the Loretta, I had the Animal — both were incredible.
Definitely not a miss. A must-try.

Still an institution. Usually get the Sarkis Special Omelette, but tried the Disaster Special Omelette for a change. The in-house disaster sausage made it so unique. Favorite cook is still here and everything was delicious. Come early for a hint of cinnamon in their coffee. Still cash only but ATM available.

What a dump. Did not know it was cash only. Not your typical breakfast place. It was small and had lots of flies.
