From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warmth and hospitality, setting the tone for a fantastic dining experience.We both opted for dishes from their "specials" menu, and let me tell you, we were not disappointed. I ordered the red chilaquiles, being a lover of spice, and they certainly delivered on the heat! But beyond the spicy kick, every bite was bursting with flavor. The portions were generous, leaving us feeling fully satisfied and content.The ambiance of the Garden Of Eat'n is cozy and inviting, making it the perfect spot to enjoy a leisurely meal. It truly felt like dining in a hidden gem, away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.Overall, our experience at the Garden Of Eat'n Restaurant was nothing short of exceptional.

“I have been in this restaurant for more than 4 times. I highly recommend it. There are a lot of parking. Once you come in; you are greeted with a warm greeting and and enthusiastic smule by the host or owner. The servers are very accommodating , friendly and helpful. They check on their customers for whatever they need until your meal is done. The busboys are hardworking and any requests will be granted right away. The food/dishes are cooked just the way you requests. Their steaks and eggs are up to par. The prices are decently priced. For what they serve you, good amounts of food. Well worth it. Freshness and presentations of foods are stupendous! Never did I have any complaints the way the place is ran. Very clean. Wide open. Eventhough i live far. I kept going back and i know when i leave, my tummy is full, content and some take home left overs. Check their menu. Check the big breakfast meal. You can't go wrong with their reasonable prices. Thank you so much, Elena and Miguel. Who still recognized me after all these months. Great customer service!! Clean kitchens and toilets too! That's how one can tell how the place is well taken cared-,of.“

“Maybe my second time here. Staff are great and friendly. Overall I enjoyed my food. I do feel the food could be better. We ordered the Nutella crepe and it seemed like a tablespoon of Nutella was used; there was nothing even between the crepes. It also just tasted average. I also got the egg sandwich and it just didn't feel gourmet enough. I would still go back for a quick meal and try other menu items.“

Still as delicious as I remember and owner has kept the prices fair where other restaurants are price gouging. Love this gem of a place. It's hard to find good food with quality ❤️?“

“Delicious food and friendly service!!“

“Fabulous food. Great service!“

“IG got us in this one- but thankfully the reel didn't disappoint. ?? As soon as we walked in, we knew it was going to be good. The ambiance was just delightful and our server, MiMi, was so friendly and nice. The menu had so many options, it was hard to pick, but we went with the Mexican skillet and Brioche Stuffed french toast - oh my my, that French toast 10/10! The breakfast potatoes were so good and the flavor in the skillet was spot on. We just had to try the homemade orange juice and it was worth every bit of the $7. We drove an hour to try this spot and we will definitely be back. It's also just a few minutes from Safari Land so a great spot to have breakfast or brunch before having fun with the fam at Safari Land. Don't take my word for it, but give this place a try- so so good!“

“Get the honey biscuits ❤️ great service!“

“Breakfast at 11:00! Yes! Love a Sunday late breakfast! This is the place to go for breakfast! I haven't tried their lunches yet. My breakfast was a veggies skillet. The potatoes were the best I've ever had, nicely seasoned and crispy. Veggies included were spinach, “

“Extensive menu with generous portions. We signed up on the waitlist on Saturday morning. When we arrived, there were ample open tables so we were seated immediately. One of us ordered a coffee and I like that they also give you a small carafe. Likewise with my Diet Coke -- they also gave me a full carafe of DC. There are many options for eggs, pancakes, Bennies and lunch items. I ordered a garden frittata and it was loaded with veggies and cheese, came with delicious harbor potatoes, an English muffin and jam. We also split a Strawberry French toast -- 3 large Texas-sized toast -- which was ok. This place gets packed on the weekends -- and staff is friendly and able to manage the hungry crowds. I also like that they bring the receipt with a QR code and you can pay by phone.“

“We were in town for a week, and stumbled onto this place. Absolutely fell enamoured with the food and atmosphere. My wife and I had the breakfast skillets and love them. Our server on each visit (yes it was good enough to warrant multiple visits), Erma/Irma not sure how she spells it, was the perfect waitress and hostess. She made us feel welcome and invited each time. Even during the busy rush time, we did not feel at all neglected in anyway. We will definitely come back on our next visit to Chicago. Thank you Teddy's Diner.“

“So long Sprinkles. I have a new favorite cupcake bakery —Courageous Cupcake. They are moist, delicious and made with fresh quality ingredients. The employees are super friendly and kind.“

“Grew up in the area, great memories! Nice to know they are still in business. Used to work Nextdoor at White Hen Pantry, 1969 - 72“

“Also very efficient. We’ll go again fo4 sure.Food excellent, prices reasonable, service above average. Our waitress, Alejandra was most gracious and friendly. Well stop again for sure.“

“Cozy restaurant, great service, delicious food.“

“I ordered through Uber eats and let me tell you, SO GOOD. I ordered a breakfast burrito but added special instructions for everything to be on the side because I wanted to assemble my own burrito. I ordered it this way because they only had one type of breakfast burrito on their menu so I ordered other things on the side that I also wanted to add to the burrito. They followed my instructions to the T and they give good portions! I would definitely order again or even dine in if I was in the area! 10/10 would recommend!“

“Healthy choices to choose from. Easily substitute potatoes amd starchy foods for keto, heart healthy foods like roasted broccoli!!“
