We love this place! The food is always so delicious and the portions are so generous that I never remember to take a photo until we're almost done eating. This time we ordered the burger, a perfectly cooked medium steak, and the avocado sandwich. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and cooked just right. One entrée is usually enough for two of us, so come hungry! We'll definitely be back. read more

Solid Family restaurant and casual atmosphere would recommend will be back. Solid menu and service is attentive and professional

Stopped in for the first time in years (on the corner of 135th and Independence) not sure why it's been so long. Service was pleasant and quick. Hubby wanted a BLT club (came with your choice of fries and soup) and I was going to get a sandwich until I seen stuffed cantaloupe on the menu and had to try it. Fresh, filling and delicious. It comes with either tuna/chicken or crab salad and can be stuffed in cantaloupe/tomato/pineapple or an avocado with a side of fruit and cottage cheese. Check this place out, I'll definitely not let years pass again to go back! read more

Cafe Romeo - Stuffed Cantaloupe with Chicken Salad - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Romeoville, Illinois

Restaurant was clean . Service and food was good. Good to see it's open for dinner a few nights a week .We would come back again

We stopped to get a bite to eat here and my sister thought that the place looked a bit dirty. They had pretty good service other than missed up on our order, but they corrected it. The food was subpar, and we ordered on the dinner menu that was slightly higher priced. I rarely ever see a lot of customers at their establishment. They need to up their game. read more

Went today the food was at best so so but the waitress was terrible my husband ordered a burger that came with soup and when she never brought the soup but then brought soup to the table right behind us and flagged her down to remind she seem annoyed at me and I ordered breakfast with sunny side up eggs and got scrambled and let her know I got attitude instead of and apology . Sorry to say we won't be going back read more

Never been here. It was recommended for brunch and we weren't disappointed. Service was good, the place was clean. The food was excellent. Great portions. We loved the chicken and rice soup, Greek panini, scrambled eggs and more. We had two different people come to refill coffee for us, we really appreciated that. read more

Amazing tasted wonderful pancakes were delicious waiter greeted me didn't take long for the food to come out

good ol fashioned greek greasy spoon bfast and lunch joint. looks like it's been here awhile. probably a Romeoville staple and popular for Lewis students. ate a london broil and scrambled egg plate. with hash browns and pancakes. pretty tasty! the london broil was chewy and not medium rare like i ordered but the for $11 per the menu i thought it was a very good deal. probably would have given five stars if not for the fact my bfast turned out to be nearly $15 and not $11 as stated on menu. i know there is inflation happenning but a disclaimer about a raise in menu prices would have been sat better in my conscious than feeling sorta jipped and ripped off and nearly bankrupt from these lies! read more

Terrible food ordered the steak medium rare came out well done and when I tried cutting into it either the knife wasn't sharp enough or there was something in the steak stopping me from cutting it. Very low quality for it's meats. When I told the manager he argued with me about it another one for terrible service. read more

Food not sanitary had a bug in my soup. Management didn't handle the situation politely.

Awful experience!!! We had a poor experience here today and will not go back because of it!!! Not only did we have undercooked bacon, burnt melted cheese on a croissant sandwich, cold eggs that had to go back, toast with literally one dot of butter but we didn't even get the courtesy of the managers attention when we asked to speak to him. Instead, he sent his wife who literally just stood there not uttering ONE WORD when we addressed our complaints! Especially regarding the rancid ketchup which she left on the table. She literally turned and walked away! Then the bus boy came and told us we had to pay for the coffee!!! So instead of comping a poor meal and apologizing they GOT $6 and customers who will not return and promise to spread the word about this lousy place!!! Bad choice cafe Romeo! read more

Husband and I had a short amount of time for breakfast before our movie and he suggested going to this place. We have never been in here since it was a full service restaurant and lived on this side of town. They had seating for us right away. We were greeted right away and given waters and coffee (but no creamers). And that was the last time we saw our waitress. We were both ready to order as soon as we got there, just basic egg breakfasts. After about 20 minutes of waiting I finally flagged down a waitress to see who was our waitress and if we could order. She said she wasn't our waitress, but that she would come back to take our order. Another five minutes and she finally took our order and said she would speed ours along. When we finally got our order another 15-20 minutes later our food was cold and we nearly had to plead for a refill on our coffees. There had been a host walking around to tables with coffee, but he never stopped at ours. There were several other tables seated after us that not only ordered before us, but had their food before we ever ordered! What is wrong with us!? Were we invisible!? I have never had such poor service. I had asked for my hash-browns to be extra crispy and they were cold and raw. My toast was cold & old (not crispy, but soggy). My husbands toast was crispy, but cold and didn't come buttered (weird). I will NEVER go back to this place. After we left, my husband said it looked like they have a lot of regulars that they took care of before us. That's just bad business! read more

We've been coming here for years and it has been a decent experience at a good price. We understand things have been rough due to the virus. However, the change of prices for the cheap quality--4 dollars for artificial apple juice is ridiculous. read more

I was so disappointed. I asked for well-done hash browns. They came out completely white. It was very fast but not what I ordered. The toast was also white. I sent the potatoes back a second time. I was done with my meal when they finally arrived. No offer for a discount just" they should have done it right". I then told the cashier (probably a manager) she , too, didn't care. It was my second time at this restaurant and the last. Expensive too. read more

We came here for breakfast. The service was good and so were the prices but the food was really bland. The country fried chicken breast had potential. The breading was crisp and chicken was tender but it just had no flavor to any of it the chicken or gravy. The soup was the same way. It really needed more salt and pepper. Maybe we just came on an off day. read more

One morning I stopped in here with some friends. I checked out the menu and noticed my FAVORITE thing to eat (other than pickles) was listed ... GRILLED CHEESE!!!!! When the waitress came I was excited to order! I had not eaten anything so far that day so I was ready to order! I gave her a big smile and said, "I would like to order the grilled cheese please!" She said no... I thought she was being sarcastic but then she shook her head and HAD THE NERVE TO SAY, "sorry it's on the kids menu"............... WELL EXCUSE ME!!!! She didn't care if I had a child 12 and under coming soon, she didn't ask if I was allergic to everything else on the menu, SHE DIDN'T EVEN ASK IF I WANTED THE "ADULT" GRILLED CHEESE. I've never been denied food ANYWHERE... until I came here. Rude. read more

Same owner for the past year, just a name change. I was impressed with the value and Betty was a great server. Three eggs, potatoes and half order of b&g for $6, beat that. I had only visited Eggman's once before, but I will certainly be back. Many value meals are available and some unique menu items too. read more

Cafe Romeo - Great value, huge order of half b&g with 3 eggs and includes hashbrowns. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Romeoville, Illinois

I was forwarned (but to each its on...) everyone has their own individual experience so when I was warned not to dine here they had bad service & food I didnt listen. when I got my items were missing the food tasted old like it was precooked and reheated and they forgot to give me a receipt so when I took my food back they acted in an unprofessional manner didnt want to give me the item that was missing or exchange the food that was old not a good place to eat horrible patronage. read more

We are in Love with this place! The food is delicious! The French toast is to die for! The staff is friendly and kind! It's definitely ur new to go place! Highly recommended!!! We had full order of French Toast, strawberry filled crapes and RIO grande breakfast! Our check was under $28! We were all full and our pockets weren't emptied dry. We have been coming back for a couple weeks now and have not been disappointed with our orders not even once. read more

So I had breakfast here today with my boss... First, if you cant make eggs Benedict correctly. DON'T have 8 versions on the menu. Eggs were over cooked and it made me sad. Then to boot, at the end I finished my coffee to find metal in the bottom if my cup. I could've choked. My consolation prize for this was they waived the coffee. Not my meal, MY COFFEE. REALLY WTF! I won't eat here again. It was my 2nd but last time. read more

I've gone here time and time again and I always had the same waitress Darlene and she was fantastic but I have not seen her there in a while. However in my last 3 visits there the customer service or service in general is not good at all. My most recent visit I went and ordered a simple platter of a BLT and a soup as a starter. While the order should be simple and out fast it took over 30 minutes to get my food out. I do not mind waiting as long as I get updates but this staff or the owner wouldn't even acknowledge me when I tried calling them over. I used to be a waiter and it is customary that the soup or starter be brought out before anything else but I got my soup and sandwich out at the same time. Finally after getting my food I realized the soup was cold and when I told the owner she did not seem to care and just gave me my bill. This place needs to turn their service around. read more

Service was not so good today, we had to seat ourselves after being handed a menu. We didn't see a server for 15 minutes after sitting. They were slower than usual we didn't get our drinks until after we got our food and the food wasnt the best we've gotten here before. Our bacon was not cooked all the way and the waffle we ordered was still batter like in the center. read more

Owner argued with me that there was onions in my corned beef hash. I had to prove it to him. Then he said "oh, that's just from some other food" IS THAT SUPPOSE TO MAKE IT OK!? Air conditioner was not working for the north side dining room. The owner said it works fine, it's just hot. True.... it was hot, but the south side dinning room was much cooler. That means there is a problem with the north side system. I am heating and air conditioning guy. I know what I'm talking about. So, I had to eat food I didn't like, and sweat while I did it. I will never go back there again. read more

Nice place not busy. Food decent service was good. Beef in French dip tough. Grilled chicken was ok. Fries warm and soft. Broccoli soup very tasty. read more

I have been coming to this location for years when it was all the other restaurants. So we had breakfast here and I ordered the Omelette with a side of hash browns and pancakes. The meal was terrible. The omelette was a dark gray color, the hash browns weren't golden crispy brown and they brought out the pancakes when I was nearly done with the entire meal. I will avoid this place in the future and try again in another few months when this one goes under too. read more

Should have checked the reviews first. No. Ordered Cream of Broccoli soup. It was paste. Half turkey on wheat was just that, dry turkey on wheat...No lettuce, no tomato, nothing. The staff seemed nice enough. I felt a little sorry for them. read more

Went once will never return, got seated by the host and the bus boy rudely told us could you move I was cleaning here ( my bad where the host sat us, have better communication with ur staff) then we order get our food TOTAL SHIT was sick after , close ur doors let something go go in the location read more

This place has really gone down hill. I have ordered stuffed French toast several times and today I ordered it and they stuffed it with cottage cheese. I said something and true waitress took it back and we could hear the cook yelling at her. Then she cane back and said he would fix it. She brings the 2nd order out and this time it's stuffed with ricotta cheese. Are you kidding me???? I am not a chef but I do know you stuffed French toast with a cream cheese mixture. Needless to say I didn't eat breakfast. The waitress was very apologetic but the owner son and never came up to the table to apologize. Terrible customer service and I will not go back. read more

My wife and I stopped in two weeks ago since we were in the area and as has been noted before, there aren't many places to go to around Romeoville. I was hesitant. Not because of bad reviews but on the two times we've been here previously (years ago) it just wasn't anything special. This time we enjoyed everything, from the clean, bright, spacious dining room to the cheery service to the very good breakfasts we had...a ham and cheese omelet and one of their skillets. They were moderately busy at 10:30 on a Friday morning but things went well and the food came rather quickly, freshly made and hot. My only complaint might be that the hash browns could have been crispier. I did our server a disservice by not catching her name. She was efficient and friendly. I can only hope that we will be served by her again, or that the rest of the staff is the same way. Forget the unpleasant reviews from 2014 and earlier. It appears that a change has come. read more

What a disappointment the last 2 times we went there. Service really tanked and the food was just okay. Wondering if new owners took over recently? We used to love this place. :( read more

Great little diner with a huge menu. The food we ordered - breakfast fare - and coffee were all very good. Portions big. Prices average. Even better than the good food and coffee, was the service from our waitress Peggy. It was a busy Saturday morning and she was running circles around the dining room, taking orders, refilling coffee, bringing orders out - all the time with a smile on her face! As busy as the whole restaurant was, she made us feel like we were her only customers and that we had been going there for years. And based on today's visit, we will be. read more

We ordered the kids chicken tenders, one egg scrambled with bacon and a ham and cheese omelette. The service was great and the food was hot. Although my sister only received two chicken tenders of which tasted like they come from a microwave. If you're looking for a simple decent costing breakfast Cafe Romeo is the place. Our total was $22 excluding tip. read more
