    Hillbilly Skillet
    Micah K.

    Since moving to the area, I stumbled across this GEM of a "diner". Just steps away from the Jefferson Park Blue Line stop, this is definitely worth a detour on your journey to and from the city! Upon entering the owners? are extremely pleasant and professional with taking your order. No matter what time of day you choose to visit, they are eager to help and serve you. The food is "diner" style comfort foods that includes a wide variety of breakfast foods and sandwiches/burgers. Everything I have tried so far is absolutely delicious and is presented in VERY generous portions. Personally the "Hillbilly Skillet" is my absolute favorite. I'm not sure that I've had a better breakfast dish anywhere. It is PERFECT! The only thing about this place that makes me sad, is that I've very often the only or one of two people inside. A place this amazing needs to be busy! I'm terrified that they will not make it and Jefferson Park will lose this amazing place. Please visit them often and see what you're missing. I know I will continue to be there as regularly as possible!

    Best polish in Chicago, full stop. Mike is the owner and he's a great guy and pretty much everything is super reasonably priced and very tasty. I'm actually kind of surprised that this place is not busy literally all the time. I would absolutely go here... It's a true diner experience, and he will not leave hungry or disappointed. The quality is top notch.

    Yes yes yes this plate hit the spot always a great breakfast thanks Mike I will be back

    Chicken Breast and fries. Quite tasty and filling.

    Thankfully Jefferson Park Grill is still around serving big portions and at a fair price. The owner Mike, his wife, and staff are always friendly and take pride in serving you breakfast, lunch or dinner. Today I had the Chicken Breast, fries, and drink. When I say the sandwich was huge and the portion of fries is large I'm not kidding. The chicken breast is cooked on the grill and has lettuce,tomato,onion and mayo on a bun with a pickle on the side. Very tasty and very filling. I'll put this chicken sandwich up against Popeye's any time. The gyro plate is another go to if your taste buds are saying feed me gyros today. There is literally something for everyone here. Large menu, fair prices and large portions.

    Chili's a little soupy.

    Cash only hole-in-the-wall immediately adjacent to the Jefferson Park CTA facility. Good for grabbing a quick bite of okay, standard greasy-spoon-type food. Small space, with a t.v. constantly on. The prices are reasonable, and you'll leave with a full belly. It's not gourmet food, but it doesn't claim to be.

    A great place to get a cheap and tasty breakfast. Since it's right outside the Jefferson Park station, it's a 20 min ride to ORD.

With a cozy locals vibe, there was a mix of young professionals on laptops and families starting the morning. The bright aesethics of Mexican heritage and decor celebrating local artists make the space inspiring and energizing. The coffee was great. I got the horchata latte, which tasted even better than I hoped. I also ordered a El Chavo Torta, a deceptively simple sandwich that was incredibly delicious. I don't know what they put in the bread or what magical place they bought the cheese from, but my mouth is watering just thinking about it. When I'm in Chicago again, La Malinche is on my list of must visit spots.

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.

We got the pancakes, which come with a citrus butter and fresh berries. The pancakes were some of the best I've had, and the butter added a refreshing orange flavor that paired really well with them. The salmon sandwich was also great. The bread they make in house is delicious. Eggs in Purgatory, steak and eggs, and the American breakfast were also ordered. The tomatoes in the Eggs in Purgatory tasted very fresh. The steak was great, though a little salty, but the meal was very flavorful overall. And those potatoes?!! So good. The venue also has an art gallery, which was a nice surprise and a great way to walk around and enjoy some art while visiting. Overall, a great experience with good food, atmosphere, and service.

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.

Service Issues:The service was inattentive throughout the meal, and concerns were not adequately addressed when brought to the staff's attention. Basic items such as water, napkins, and straws took an unreasonable amount of time to arrive, with water alone taking more than 10-15 minutes. Food Quality Issues:The food and cleanliness were equally disappointing. I requested extra crispy bacon in my omelet, but the bacon was undercooked and appeared raw. Both coffee cups also arrived dirty, with dried coffee residue inside, raising concerns about cleanliness and attention to detail. Closing Takeaway:Adding to the frustration, gratuity was automatically included despite the poor service. I rarely leave reviews, but I hope management uses this feedback to improve service standards, food quality, and overall guest experience. But I will never visit again!!
