50 Best Breakfast Restaurants near Evergreen Park

“This restaurant was kaddie corner to my Grandparents on Albany Ave. I went there when I was a boy in the 1970's...it was great back then. It says something that it is still around and still retains the Restaurant Neon sign on it. I would see that illuminated out my Gram's back window... Love it.“

“Bialy’s always has a very friendly staff, atmosphere, and great food. You can essentially get anything on their menu (breakfast/lunch/dinner) from open to close. A small detail I always love is their refried beans, definitely far better than comparable restaurants.“

“I loved this place! The Cinnamon Roll Waffles and the Ham and Cheese Omelette were absolutely amazing! The staff was great as well. I will definitely go back when I'm in town again.“

“So I visited this place at least three times with a carry out order and customer service was awesome first time. Second I decided to go due to the good food and definitely the customer service, again awesome. Third, I enjoyed my food as always with recommendations from the young lady ( forgot her name). All three times I was either on crutches or knee brace. They were so sweet they helped me with my food to car an even told me to pull up to place and they’ll have my order ready for me! They were very nice to help me and for that I’m grateful. They went above and beyond. They made sure I was taken care of. So I brought my daughter there and she agree with the great customer service. Thank you guy so much. We will see you guys soon.“

“I placed an order to go. Was informed that there was a $3.00 to go charge and a gratuity would be added on the order cause it was over $100.00. After I checked the receipt, $18.35 was the gratuity. I thought it would be maybe $5.00. Very disappointed. Had I known this, I would have come into the restaurant and ate there had them provide me with service. I am a senior and that was definetly not right. I've already instructed my family not to get me gift card from Maple and Jam.“

“Steak 'n Egger down in Pilsen is the absolute definition of a classic Chicago diner. We rolled in way past midnight for some late breakfast and grabbed two stools right at the counter. I ordered the standard steak and eggs with a massive side of crispy hash browns and a black coffee. The cook was working the flat top right in front of us and had our food out insanely fast. The whole place has that perfect vintage energy.“

“This morning was our 1st time there for our Family’s Annual Christmas Morning breakfast/lunch. Everyone enjoyed their meal and the service was fantastic.“

“I had brunch here today with a friend, first time here. I had the corned beef benedict and not only was it the best corned beef I've ever had in my life, but the orange juice was amazing, the service was great, and the value was fabulous also! Will definitely be back and plan to possibly go once a week with friends! 10 out of 10 recommend!“

“Came here for the first time for dinner with a friend and was pleasantly surprised. Everything you want from a diner: unpretentious, breakfast classics (available all day) that are delicious and priced right. Leo was on point with the food and service! I enjoyed sitting at the bar and being able to watch him work his magic. The burgers he was cooking up for his other customers looked fabulous. Definitely coming back!“

“Thank you Laz for such an amazing breakfast! We were very impressed with all the food and of course you coming out and speaking with us was just an awesome experience!“

“Good food, highly recommend“

“In my opinion the best breakfast I’ve ever ate!!!! 5 stars“

“Love their food and service“

“It was my first time at the restaurant and I was impressed. Fast service, courteous staff, and the food was delicious! Highly recommended and I will definitely be back for another visit.“

“We had a large group just before lunchtime on a Saturday, and they were great about squeezing us in. Our server D was amazing, truly, and the other staff were helpful and attentive, too. The food was delicious, hot, fast, priced affordably. They have a large menu. We had some special diets in our group and there were enough options for them to find what they needed. I definitely would return and would recommend it to friends.“

“What a shame you didn’t offer anything for Veterans. They should’ve been entitled to a free breakfast. I’ll think twice about going back to this restaurant.“

“I have the avocado lotto and it was plenty so much that I have enough for supper. The fruit was fresh and plentiful. The tunafish and cottage cheese were excellent. The patty melt with onions was cooked perfectly. It came with a cup of soup and a generous portion of coleslaw. We will definitely come back here again.“

“Best stuffed French toast ever! The owners are hand on and very hospitable. They close at 2pm, so make sure you time your visit early.“

“Absolutely great first visit! Will definitely be back“

“I just recently started going there since last year. No negative reviews here. Every single experience has been great alongside with the food. When it’s your birthday, the staff sings to you. You pay what you get and it’s worth every penny. Keep up the great work Alexander’s!! As busy as it gets: even when people are standing room only: it goes by quickly and the staff greets you with their kindness and smiles.“

“Lumes is always a bomb and vibe from start to finish. They greet us as soon as we walk in and everyone is always friendly and pleasant. When seated we are asked if the space is to our liking and the server brings waters immediately. We go so much that we kind of already know what we want unless like Me, you wanna try something different. The avocado toast was very different. It was loaded with good stuff! The salmon was kinda like sushi so it taste like sushi avocado toast with a little side salad if that makes since and it was huge by the way so I enjoyed only one piece and was able to take the rest home 🙂 If you ever had the shrimp & grits you know it’s a hit! Every single time! Always affordable Always a pleasure. Go get you some!“

“pricing has gone through the roof. $8 for half order of plain pancakes (3), while a whole order of 6 is $9?“

“I always love coming here & frequently do when I want a good hearty meal or bringing friends. We are always kindly greeted & welcomed when arriving. It smells wonderful & makes us more hungry! We are served a cup of soup (gratis) with every meal including breakfast (their soups are delicious). The staff is friendly & always accommodating. Our food is served hot in generous proportions & for the price (very reasonable compared to other restaurants of this kind), it can’t be beat. Greek owned, the hospitality & food is reflective of the Greek Culture, representing pride, family, community, friendship, kindness & duty of service that is offered to their guests. This is known as Philotimo (pronounced “Fi-ló-timo” [Fee-low-timo]).“

“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.“

“I've come here quiet a few times and various hours and no matter how busy they have been they always provide exceptional service. The food is not overpriced but good down home breakfast food. Its a small thing but when you order something that's on the menu with a photo that is the exact dish you are getting. I highly recommend Waffles Pancake House if you are in the area“

“Great service. The catfish(filet/whole) was delicious. Our waitress Pamela was so nice and professional. I was there yesterday 3/15/22 party of 6 with my line dancing sisters. I will definitely be back!!!!“

“I have visited this lovely establishment several times now and every time has been an unforgettable foodgasmic experience ! What is even more notable than that is the customer service. There are many places with good food, especially my home kitchen but good customer service and a place with a very welcoming staff with warm beautiful smiling faces is getting really hard to find. If you are looking for many delicious menu items to choose from, excellent customer service, and a bright welcoming environment to enjoy it all in, make your way on over to Eggsperts. I can promise you will not regret it. The experience is exceptional. Don't cheat yourself, treat yourself to Eggsperts today !“

“Deanna Mark was so kind and a wonderful waitress. We enjoyed our food- all was delicious. Deanna was able to get my friend a new egg Benedict because the one he received was over cooked. We loved everything even the coffee was delicious“

“The service is great, the prices are good, and the food is great 😊 , great neighborhood place to eat at !“

“The best pancakes around!“

“My husband & I ate there for the first time Sunday. The food was absolutely delicious & plentiful. Being new to the area we found a favorite place to eat!“

“Three of us routinely indulge in breakfast at Diamond and are never disappointed with the great food and excellent service. Portions are substantial and made with top notch ingredients, served hot and fresh. Our favorite waitresses are Rachel and Teresa, but all the staff are good. I'm a huge fan of the pancakes, sausage and eggs combination, which is served at a bargain price including coffee on Tuesday and Thursday. Diamond also offers many lunch options.“

“Food is delicious. Hubby and I visit at least twice a week. Breakfast bowl is yummy. Livers and onions with mashed potatoes are fabulous.“

“They are very sweet and I would go here ...prices are great you get great food if give them a trillion stars if I could“

“Great place to eat breakfast been eating at this place for years use to bring my son here on the weekend when he was younger and that's been over 20 years ago great food breakfast not sure if they sell anything else but I definitely love it still the same“

“This restaurant truly impressed me! From the moment we walked in, everything felt just right — warm lighting, pleasant music, and a welcoming atmosphere. The food was outstanding, each dish prepared with care and full of rich, balanced flavors. The staff was attentive and professional, making the whole experience even more enjoyable. A perfect spot for both everyday meals and special occasions!“

“The service was good, the place was clean and cozy, the food was very good.“

“First time Golden Bear in Lansing. The food and service was great. However, when I checked my bank account I was charged $9.98 more then the amount on the receipt I received from the register. When I went back the manager was very nice & helpful. She refunded the $. The restaurant receipt had the same amount. I pulled up my bank account & showed her the amount from my bank. We both thought it was so strange! Maybe the register malfunctioned? Again the manager was awesome!“

“I have only been to this restaurant once. From the outside it looks like its barely hanging on. It needs some sprucing on the outside. The interior though is classic and traditional. It has an interior that Bronzeville's Pearls Place could really use and space that Valois in Hyde Park really needs. I can also recall how good the pancakes were. I can't say much about anything else. It's been a while. My hope is that they could clean up and modernize the outside. For this they may need an infusion of cash. I believe the outside is where the business falls off a bit I mean you wouldn't even think it was open for business. Its the only place worth eating at in the whole 8th ward. The area is filled with junk food options and it's a shame. I will be back soon.“

“Fresh coffee!! None of that nasty burnt rubber tasting stuff you get from other places.

Service was exceptional, the waitresses were prompt and I was seated with no wait time.

Pricing was fair, especially for the portion sizes. The Irish plate will have you eating like royalty and is reasonably priced.

The pancakes were fluffy and perfectly done.

Definitely an Oak Lawn hidden gem.“

“Delicious food and friendly service“

“Alex is the Manager he is a very Good guy. He helped me out with a order I had previously placed and the cook at the time meesed the order up but he looked out for me I can't say how much I appreciate him and the ladies there love this place one of ones fr.“

“I CAME HERE FOR THE FIRST TIME AND TRIED THEY CHICKEN & SHIMP ALFREDO AND IT WAS OFF THE CHAIN. I GIVE THEM 4 STARS. NOW WHAT I DON'T LIKE ABOUT THE WORKERS IS THAT THEY STOP ANSWERING THEY PHONE AT 8PM DO TO THEM BEING SHORT STAFF WHICH MEANS THE OWNER NEED AOME MORE HELP IN THE PLACE ATLEASE HIRE A DISHWASHER PERSON“

“absolutely love when I'm in town and get to stop with family to have brunch or lunch here. everybody goes above and beyond to make it a great experience!“

“Adela was our server and she has been many times. She is very attentive and always makes our experience great. The food here is always delicious. We have had a variety of menu items and are never disappointed. The orange juice is always fresh squeezed which is our favorite. Some favorites I’d recommend are the strawberry French toast, Irish skillet, pancakes of any kind, and the ham and Swiss crepes!“

“Came here to grab something to eat before my flight back and honestly had such a wonderful experience! The service was phenomenal, and Jorge (I believe that was his name) was awesome and really helpful. He was friendly, patient, and made sure everything was taken care of. It’s not every day you get service like that at a fast-food place, so I really appreciated it. Definitely made my last meal before my flight a good one! 🍔✈“

“Awesome food and service 🔥“

“Great breakfast and fast service.“
