    Today was my 3rd time coming, since the 90's. The 1st two times was great but today being the 3rd, not so much. We had breakfast and our Waitress was named Barbara. While eating breakfast we noticed some people were getting dinner, so we decided to order dinner then, since we had a lot of running around to do. I ordered the fried chicken with mac & cheese, yams, & dressing. My wife ordered fried chicken, mac & cheese, greens, and dressing. My daughter had the baked chicken, dressing, greens, & mac and cheese. My daughter's dinner was the only one made correct, mine had mashed potatoes, instead of yams and no dressing. My wife's dinner had no dressing. Everthing is on my reciept tho. I tried calling, but it was after 5pm when I saw my dinner. I'll call again tomorrow

    This place is a wonderful, clean, old-fashioned diner -- perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner! The staff is friendly, the service is prompt, and the food never disappoints. I especially love their self-described "DALEY'S FAMOUS PATTY MELT" -- a juicy half-pound beef patty tucked between grilled rye, melted American cheese, and grilled onions. It's served with crispy French fries, creamy homemade coleslaw, and a crisp kosher pickle. Comfort food done right!

    This was my first time here and I had the lovely Mrs. Barbara as a waitress! She was so patient, kind and professional. I can tell that she is a true asset here and has been serving in this community gracefully! I appreciated her service! The food was good! I had a veggie omelette and added bacon. I truly love how classic and elegant the black decor and seating is. This is more than a diner it presents as an upscale environment. So glad i stopped in!

    WOW WOW WOW!!!!! Daley's has been added to my "Must have from now on, anytime I come to Chicago! " list. The service was impeccable, our whole group really appreciated Ms.Lynn. She was fast, friendly, and gave expert service. We were a group of 5 and most of us had not been here before. Meaning we were unfamiliar with the menu. Ms. Lynn helped us make our selections. She was so patient with us. I wanted to change my order after I heard what everyone else ordered. The options were unlimited!!!!!! I was so excited. I loved the hot syrup option. The food came out and we devoured it. I made sure to save some to take home with me. I am in Chicago visiting family and can't wait to come back, I could eat here everyday!!!! Very family style service I love to feel welcomed and here we really did. Such a great experience. The playlist was dope too! Anita baker and James Ingram!

    My mom, niece and myself came here after a funeral on a Friday afternoon. Lots of street parking. Our waitress, Karen was so sweet. My grits were very bland, so I wouldn't get them again, but my salmon patties, biscuits and egg whites were delicious.

    Slap yo mama delicious home made cooking that brings you back to your childhood memories of cooking done right. This was next chef level cooking done right. We were a party of four and we had an array of things to eat and everything was amazing. The portions were Fred Flintstone size. Just remarkable food from the liver and onions, fried catfish, salmon patties, collard greens and candy yams. The star of the show was the chicken noodle soup is. It was creamy with big chunks of chicken and the flavor was off the chain. I would go back for the soup alone. Our wait staff was on top of our every need and she was friendly. The restaurant is huge and it has some historic history because it's a place that the politicians frequent. Definitely will be back!

    One of my good friends treat me here for a belated birthday brunch. Located on the Southside of Chicago. We were lucky to quickly be seated at a table. The server came over to our table with a pitcher of water. Filled our glasses up with some cold iced water and was ready to take our order. Now this is what I call fast service. I heard this place started off as a small diner across the street. It has now grown and has a spacious dining area. I ordered the spicy Denver Skillet, diced hot links and ham with green peppers, which came with oninons and topped with pepperjack cheese. It had just enough kick of spice to it. Very tasty and well-seasoned with 2 slices of toast. My friend ordered their famous Southside Skillet, homemade turkey sausage, green peppers, onions topped with cheddar cheese and a biscuit. The food, experience, ambience, prices of the food, and great customer service. Will always keep customers coming back for more.

    This table I will never ever sit here again, the server knocked on it every time he came past with me sitting and eating so annoying I left!

    The food was tasty, vegetable omelet and salmon Crockett. Server knocked coming to serve every table while I was eating. I had to inquire why, he said "It's a habit." He apologized but now I'm agitated and ready to go! The busser-she threw dishes in its dirty area-I promise I jumped every time. Very annoying atmosphere!

    Me  Enjoying being back home. With so good food. I miss CHICAGO FOOD SO MUCH

The staff were really welcoming, for an early morning. I got the hot chocolate. Honestly that's exactly what I needed that morning. It had that real Mexican chocolate taste. Thick, creamy, smooth and rich. The cinnamon came through warm but not too strong, plus a little extra on top that hit your nose before the first sip. Sweet and it almost had this slight earthy note too... hard to explain but good. It even had that little design on top, like the ones they do on cappuccinos. Didn't expect that but it was cool. I finished it slow. Didn't wanna rush it. Just sat there taking small sips and enjoying it while it was still hot.

They also have a patio, and with the weather being nice, it was easy to just sit outside and relax for a while. I was honestly too hungry to spend much time deciding, so I just ordered one of the sourdough donut ball. It was exactly what I was hoping for. The outside had a light coating of sugar that gave it just the right amount of sweetness without being too much. Once I bit into it, the inside was soft, airy, and slightly chewy from the sourdough, which made it different from a regular donut. There was a subtle tang from the sourdough that balanced the sweetness really well, so it never felt overly sugary. It had a light crispness on the outside, then a warm, pillowy center that practically melted away with each bite. I finished it way faster than I expected. The only thing I forgot was ordering something to drink with it. Looking back, a good coffee would've made it even better. Still, I'd definitely stop by again the next time I'm in the area.

Set in an old warehouse that is now an art gallery event space and restaurant nestled in an older warehouse district in Bridgeport neighborhood of Chicago. Beautiful decor and laid out perfectly. The natural wood floors furniture ie tables chairs etc and iron work throughout sets the ambiance for old meets new. It works. The wide spacing between tables makes for a comfortable dining experience. So many folks come in to do their work and dine here. What a super addition to the neighborhood that less than a decade ago was essentially a street that was more a run down semi-truck alley. Great menu with neighborhood favorites leaning toward the old school Italian dishes. Sandwiches, soups, salads, and breakfasts just to name a few are all excellent. The pastries are insane and a must take home deal. I love the American Breakfast. Three eggs your way, thick diced America potatoes, thick cut bacon, and sourdough toast. Accompanied by what I believe to be home made jelly and for sure homemade gardiniera. Caruso's gardiniera actually. Diced into a relish unlike most standard gardiniera it's easier to eat with many dishes. Excellent flavor and just the right kick to it. FYI Dolce Arte also sells a to go line of homemade Caruso products from their gardiniera to past and past sauces and more. Yes, their coffee is really good too. Lavazza products I believe. The service is always on point. Casual but on point. Very friendly staff from diverse backgrounds. This is the place you bring people close to you, business lunches, meetings, formal ir informal, or like me, save it for myself as my own getaway spot. It's an artists dream and sets a positive time for any gathering.

I bravely went for the latin-inspired latte flights, consisting of Mexican mocha, Coquito, horchata, and cafe de Olla. My favorite out of these four was the coquito because of the coconut pieces, which blended well with the latte. I know it sounded silly, but I enjoyed chewing these coconut flakes and they were good palate cleansers! The presentation was da bomb as well. The only reason that I couldn't give five stars to "Stockyard" was limited seating. The place was super cute, but there were only 3 tables and less than 4 high chair seating against the windows, plus some outdoor seating on the pedestrian walkway. The laptop users were respectfully directed to sit at the windows and outlets were available. The baristas were friendly and knowledgeable. I asked the details of the latte flight and they explained the offerings. I thought there was only one type of latte flights, but I believe the one I selected was very much suited to my preferences. "Stockyard Coffeehouse" is accessible via routes CTA 44 (Racine/Wallace) and CTA 8 (Halsted) busses. It's great to have a reliable indie coffeeshop in the neighborhood like this, so keep up the good work!
