Great breakfast and great service. We added some extras like blueberries to my blueberry pancakes & fancy stuffed French toast to my husband's combo. No worries and didn't appear to be an upcharge! My blueberry pancakes had BLUEBERRIES in the batter. A lot of places nowadays just want to make plain pancakes and ladle stuff on top.

We have family in Joliet and will be back for sure. Highly recommend.

Food is fantastic. Large menu selections. Any time for breakfast and lunch. Closes early. Get there before 2 pm. If you want to talk, go during off hours. This place can be crowded and noisy.

Wow! Amazing food. Best biscuits and sausage gravy I've ever had. The pancakes MELT in your mouth good! But our server Christina? The nicest waitress I've met in a very long time. Her personality made everything top tier. My biscuits and gravy weren't hot enough for me but I didn't want to send them back because they were so good lol. She decided to bring me a side of hot gravy to heat the biscuits again and I was sold. Will return. Will request her. Will indulge...
