“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.“

“(2025) Brunch Cafe - Addison, IL I recently had the pleasure of dining at Brunch Cafe in Addison, and I must say, it was an exceptional experience! Our waitress, Febe, provided EXCELLENT service—she was attentive, friendly, and made sure we had everything we needed. The food was amazing, coming out hot and fresh, just as we hoped. From the fluffy pancakes to the savory breakfast burrito, every dish was delicious and perfectly prepared. The atmosphere was welcoming, and the staff made us feel right at home. In my opinion, this restaurant should be rated #1 in Addison, IL for breakfast. No other place comes close to the quality and service we experienced here. Highly recommend! (2024) How ever long is your wait is please wait. It’s definitely worth the wait. Their food is absolutely delicious and our waitress was professional + friendly. Carrot cake pancakes are my new favorite.“

“Uber local spot. Nice hole in the wall breakfast joint. Would gladly go anytime im in cicero. Great staff, great service, food was on point. Reasonably priced. No complaints at all. Fast service. Worth a visit if you're looking for something different, new, or local to try“

“Stefanie is awesome! The whole staff is positive.“

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

“​My recent visit to Lumes was absolutely phenomenal. I can't stop thinking about the Louisiana skillet—it was perfectly cooked, with all the flavors coming together beautifully. My companion's eggs, bacon, and hash browns meal was equally impressive; the eggs were done just right. What truly stood out, though, was the wonderful service. When we asked to swap out the regular toast for French toast, the staff handled it with a smile and zero complaints. This level of quality and customer care makes Lumes a true gem. If you're looking for a top-tier breakfast spot, this is it! I would give it 10 stars in a heartbeat.“

“I would like to send a shout out to our waitress, Sabrena! She made our trip to this restaurant an enjoyable one!

The atmosphere is always welcoming, clean, and cozy, which makes the dining experience even better. As usual, the food was delicious and served quickly. If you're looking for great service and tasty meals, I highly recommend them.“

“Went there for the 1st time last Saturday. The service and the food were both excellent. Amber was on top of everything and was very knowledgable about the menu items. Husband had a ‘skillet’ breakfast and I had the granola/berry French toast. We left very little food and we didn’t need much to eat afterwards. The food was filling and kept us going until late afternoon. I recommend this restaurant and will be back! Highland Village Texas location“
