We found this place in our way to another breakfast place and decided to stop. 10/10 would definitely recommend. Best breakfast food we have had ever, restaurant is extremely clean, everyone working was friendly. We will definitely return if we are near Chicago again

This is not hyperbole. That biscuit was the BEST I have ever had in my life. It was the perfect portion, warm, and slightly sticky on the outside. When I tore a piece off, steam poured out. I tried it on its own. Great texture and sweet but not cloying. It would have been great on its own. Then, I dipped it into the strawberry...read full review

Fried Green Tomatoes were delish! Service was friendly and my Alabama Benny rocked! 👍🙌⭐️🫶
