“Fun, down to earth, good food and the owner rocks!“

“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.“

“Went to the Chicago Waffle House in Willowbrook with friends today Had the best skillet-The Short Rib Skillet- Fantastic with Lavazza coffee not to mention great service. We’ll be back soon“

“Food was delicious. They serve large portions. Staff is super friendly. Atmosphere is great, loved the mixture of background music including soft rock.“

“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.“

“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.“

“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!“

“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!“

“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!“

“Our waitress provided amazing customer service and was super attentive throughout the whole meal 😊👏. The food was really good, and that Southwest omelette definitely had a spicy kick 🌶🍳, but it was absolutely delicious! The only thing I wasn’t a big fan of was the style of hash browns. The pancakes, though, were HUGE 🥞😋! Overall, a tasty breakfast and a pleasant experience. I’d definitely come back to try more from the menu!“

“Love their food and service“

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

“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.“

“This was our first time eating at YiaYia's Cafe in Hinsdale, Illinois. The restaurant and bathroom was very clean. The food was great tasting and perfect portions. The waitress was very friendly and professional. We will definitely be coming back to eat here again!

Keep up the great work!

“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.“

“Had a wonderful breakfast here while in town. One of the most hospitable restaurants I’ve ever been to! Waitresses Anna Marie and Debbie were so pleasant and made us feel like family. The gentleman up front (I’m assuming the owner) was accommodating to a special need we had and was so sweet. Our new favorite breakfast spot! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“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.“

“1st time. Service was very good and friendly. Guy with the black curly hair super nice. Food was good. Had salad, soup, and a latte. Will be back.“

“We had to get up early to bring our car in for servicing and decided to come to First Watch. We had been here in Orland Park two other times before… one was during their grand opening and it was not our favorite place to come to. Sometimes it really comes down to the server and we didn’t really like the service we had. We came back again when it was warmer outside and had a very pleasant experience. But today REEGAN was our server and she knocked it out of the park! I tried the Godfather Bowl and my husband had the Trifecta. I asked Reegan a lot of questions about their various bowl offerings, and she told me what she liked about each one. When she asked me what kind of eggs I wanted, and I said you know whatever works best. I didn’t really care, and she said I would recommend the scrambled eggs because a lot of people think the other ones are too runny with the other items that are in the bowl. She also told me if I didn’t like the scrambled eggs she would substitute something else after I tried them. The sauce that came with the Godfather Bowl is extremely hot. Just a dab is needed. The Italian sausage was grilled well and tasty. I liked the grits served with the dish. While we waited for our food, she brought out warm syrup for my husband‘s pancake and then some compote for him to put on it because he prefers jelly. We both got to-go-cups for our never-ending coffee, and I really liked the sipping spout on the cup. I’m impressed on how clean everything is at this location. I saw another server, clean off the salt and pepper, shakers, etc. off the tables because the restaurant had just basically opened and she was waiting on more customers. Pricing is more reasonable that several local breakfast spots in Orland Park. Next time we come in here, I’m gonna ask for REEGAN; you should too.“

“Great customer service and good food at this location. The assistant manager was gracious about changes we need to make to our order which my family and I appreciated after a long day of travel. That atmosphere was warm and welcoming as well.“

“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.“

“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.“

“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]).“

“My friend and I went to brunch this morning and we had a lovely time! We had Jack O. as our server and he was AMAZING! Didn’t come up every minute but also consistently checked up on us, best service I’ve had in a while!“

“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!“

“Sweetest people work there and the food is great!“

“The bagels are so fresh and amazing. The breakfast sandwiches are delicious and lots of creative varieties or make your own!“

“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“

“I worked here for 6 months and the owners had me fired for talking Spanish to the cooks! VERY discriminatory!!!💯 Customers BEWARE of what type of establishment you are supporting when dining here!💯“

“Stopped here for breakfast, 1st time and I would definitely recommend it. The service was excellent and the food was great (real, fresh, hot, cooked to order)! I had the sampler with oatmeal pancakes and they were delicious!!! My other options included the chicken avocado crepe and Mediterranean omelette. The coffee was good, it came to the table in its own thermal to stay hot. I highly recommend!!“

“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!!!!“

“Orland Oasis hit the spot for breakfast. The place was quiet, simple, and laid back. Nothing fancy, just easy to sit down and eat.

The staff was super friendly. They checked in enough but didn’t hover, and they seemed like they actually cared about the people eating there.

I got the Everything Skillet with scrambled eggs. It had peppers, onions, mushrooms, bacon, basically a mix of everything. The veggies still had a little crunch, the bacon was crispy, and the whole thing just tasted good. Big enough to fill me up.

Honestly, that’s all I wanted. Good food, no hassle, and a calm start to the morning.“

“OMG the Baked Blueberry French Toast!! 😋 Yummmm!!“

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

“Café Miela is an absolute hidden gem. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere feels warm, relaxed, and genuinely welcoming. The staff are friendly and attentive, making you feel like a valued guest rather than just another customer.
The food was fantastic.“

“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“

“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.“

“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 food and service! Thanks!“

“Used to go here all the time will be back……. Soon. Great food“

“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.“

“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!“
