They gave us two seats by the bathroom. It was so noisy & so busy with people going back and forth and hitting our chairs. That table is horrible !! Our dad is almost 90 years old and had to sit there and he couldn’t hear anyone talk to him because of the noise from kitchen, and bathroom was busy with people going back and forth. ! Horrible.

Go during the week! It is hard to get a table on the weekend. Food was wonderful. I had the eggs Benedict and fruit. Everything was fresh. Our waiter was really nice. I asked for decaf coffee and he noticed I was given regular. He switched it out without hesitation.

My friend brought me here and said it was a breakfast place and I so love breakfast! Trying one of their breakfast plates was great. The oil used for frying the eggs had a kinda funny taste and the buttermilk pancakes weren't that fluffy. But still I enjoyed my breakfast. I loved the hot chocolate with whipped cream and the Dutch pancake with fresh fruits was good, as well..Vegetarian options: I didn't try any but I think they have them..

We liked German pancakes

Always great breakfasts at relatively reasonable prices. Though the coffee was off this time. Tasted old and not as wonderful as usual.

My friends and I go here sometimes. It’s always busy and the food is really good. It is a little pricey but I’ve never been disappointed when coming here. My only criticism is that the hash browns here are not very good. Other than that everything is an amazing.

I’ll start this review by praising the food . My favorites are the baked specialpancakes like the Dutch garden and apple cinnamon . These take awhile but are large and thick especially the Apple Cinnamon. I don’t visit regularly but do take my visiting relatives for these special pancakes. I’ll visit by myself when I’m in he mood . It had been about six months when I felt the urge for the apple cinnamon today. Normally service is more than adequate but to say today was disappointing is a massive understatement. This being a Sunday I knew that it would be busy which is why I decided to go at a time past the normal brunch time. I got there @ 1:45 which I thought would be less busy since it closes at 2:30. It seemed to be busy but also winding since there was no wait to get a table. I ordered my apple cinnamon pancake and sipped my coffee since I expected a little wait. I finished my first cup and was expecting for the waitress to appear with my food or coffee. She passed out once but didn’t stop. I waited and wondered why it appeared to take longer than prior times I’ve when it was even busier. Finally as waiters passed by I stop her and ask for more coffee. I’m still waiting and by 2;15 still haven’t received my food. I was starting to wonder why it’s taking so long since restaurant is already almost empty. To my surprise my waitress appears and starts to put the check on the table. Wow. It’s almost like a sitcom moment. I tell her I haven received my food and then it’s like she remembers cause she say ooh the apple pancake. She goes to kitchen and surpringly she gets it in about 5 minutes. By this time it’s about 2::20 and the busboys are mopping and cleaning around me. I take a few bites but frankly since I’m a slow eater and don’t want to person who stays after closing I ask for a Togo so I can eat my pancakes in a relaxed manner. I go pay my bill and would haven’t my experience to the cashier. Usually in orior visits they go thru usual question of how was your meal, which is when I would have spoken up but all the cashier/ manager asked do you want your receipt. At this point I just wanted to get home and eat my meal so I said nothing.I’m not sure if I want to go back to this location. I’m not sure but it’s seems that ownership may have changed since my last visit since the cashiers managers appeared different than my prior visit. I still love the food but am pondering if I should go to the location in Schaumburg for my next vist
