    Mr A's is a very unassuming restaurant! My cousins and I wanted to give it a try and I will say it was a very good experience. The food was the best part of the experience. I felt the quality was very good compared to other places. I could sense they took passion in the dishes. I would say give Mr A's a try!

    Special: Blueberry French Toast Special
    Miranda L.

    Mr. A's is a family run restaurant in Roselle that acts as the neighborhood diner. I've been here many of times and the food as well as prices never disappoints me. As busy as the parking lot looks, I've never had to wait longer than 15 min for a table. The staff hustles but never rushes you out the door. On top of all that, you will often see Mr. A himself working alongside staff which I personally love. This time visiting, I got the Biscuits and Gravy. These come loaded with gravy which is nicely peppered and has good sized meat crumbles within. My partner got the Blueberry French Toast special which he said was a delicious treat without being overly sweet. Overall, Mr. A's is a great value driven spot. Their menu has a large variety of options so no one can go hungry!

    Well this was recommended and since I work along the way to Streamwood, I decided to eat breakfast here in Roselle. Anyways the service was very quick and friendly and I addressed how this is my first time coming here because it was recommended by my childhood babysitters son in regards to the cost and how much breakfast food you get. I went for the number 2 which was three pancakes three eggs and I went for sausage links. They are known for their ham but I'm not a big fan of ham. Maybe I'll try it one day when I come back. Ambience was your usual homely breakfast place. Price wise it was under $14 per entree breakfast wise. I would probably come back for the French toast and some of their pancakes that either have banana split on the menu which I thought was unusual they put ice cream I don't know? Anyways, when in Roselle and you have the leisurely time please stop by here. Just do it before 2:30 pm because they close early in the afternoon. They just serve breakfast and early lunch at this restaurant

    Located in Roselle across from the train station,Mr A's serves breakfast and lunch all day. Known for their ham,portions are huge and prices are great . Service was very good and the meals were prepared fresh and served hot. Huge menu. Had the Eye Opener Special #1 with 3 eggs,huge slice of grilled ham and American fries with toast. A side of pancakes instead of toast was also an option. They offer skillets,griddle items,breakfast sandwiches,omelettes,Benedicts and eggceptional combos. Noticed many regulars which is always a good sign. Open 7 days a week from 6am to 230pm. Will definately go back maybe for lunch

    The French Silk Pie they have on occasion but not always, call ahead.

    Everyone who works there is fantastic to be around, from the people when you first walk in to the Servers who help you. I forget his name but the guy who helps clean is fantastic. I'm actually about to go over and have some breakfast and hope Diana is working today. You won't go wrong there

    The sign to keep driving by if you see it.

    Do not come here for any holiday. we came on Mother's Day. We waited 20 minutes for a table, which is reasonable but then we ordered our food and waited 1 1/2 hours to be served. While waiting I realized they spent almost 1 entire hour just doing carry out orders and left most of the entire restaurant waiting for them to even start cooking food for all their customers sitting waiting for their food. I wouldn't come back if it as the only restaurant left in the state.

    The #1: ham and eggs
    Bill G.

    I have eaten here four times in the last two weeks, so I obviously enjoy it. I had a breakfast burrito once. It was good, but their #1 eggs with ham was my choice the other times. It is hard to beat. The ham slab is the star of the show. It's quite large and delicious. I haven't gotten here for lunch yet, but a friend of mine swears by the split pea soup - again the ham shines through. They even have a sign on the door letting you know that you can buy just the slabs of ham. There must be a story there about where they get these hams. The service is among the best anywhere. Parking is easy. The dining area is roomy and clean.

    This is a neighborhood gem in Roselle whose management and staff are friendly and take good care of their customers. The portions are large with lots of comfort food to fill your belly on a cold day. I told the waitress that I was gluten free and she said that almost all the items on the menu could be made gluten free. I had two perfectly poached eggs with a nice assortment of fresh fruit and cottage cheese. I ordered gluten free toast but they were out so they offered gluten free pancakes instead. The GF pancakes were deliciously light and fluffy. She told me that they had someone run out to buy GF bread which is above and beyond. Proof that this is a business worth supporting. We will be back.

    Kayana. Very good.

    Excellent service. Excellent food. Clean and inviting atmosphere. We were promptly greeted and seated. They accommodated our request for a particular table with no fanfare. The waitress was friendly, quick and accommodating. The bussing service was also of note as it was far above what I've experienced in the past few years. Everyone's food was great and portions are generous. Coffee was solid (although I like a bit bolder roast). The management and the whole team here should know they are firing on all cylinders and it shows. Definitely a solid pick. I will be back.

Upon looking up Big Sammy's on Yelp, it seemed like an ideal choice. After my arrival to the restaurant, I took my time deciding (even though I was in the mood for a burger) as they have a big menu with lots a good variety to choose from. I decided to order a hamburger with lettuce, onions, tomatoes, and ketchup; a cheeseburger with lettuce, onions, tomatoes, pickles, and mustard; six mango habañero wings, and small order of French fries. My ordered was prepared fresh. The fries and the wings were hot off the fryer and the burgers were freshly char-grilled. All the food tasted good. The fries were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, just the way I prefer. The wings were meaty and crispy with a sweet and spicy flavor. The char-grilled were cooked properly and were quite delicious. They hit the spot. My meal was exactly like how I expected. I liked this establishment for their menu variety, overall pricing, and good service. The restaurant was nice, clean, well-lit, and spacious. Check them out. I'll be back for more.

On this visit, we were with a large group seated in the smaller dining room next to the gaming room. The restaurant was full and the kitchen got backed up; a few in our group did not receive their food until after others had finished their meals. You get a ton of food; most lunches include a bowl of soup, fries and slaw. On a previous visit, I ordered a chicken Philly sandwich that was messy to eat but okay.

I was treating my parents for my dad's birthday month (My daughter has a lot of activities, lol) and the menu appeared to have something for everyone. The 22 minute drive to Itasca was so worth it! The restaurant, which is open to the public, is on the same property as the Itasca Country Club, which is not open to the public. You go down the stairs, through the developing pizza bar, and to the restaurant. The restaurant space itself is cozy, with beautiful, natural lighting, and lots of seating options. We were asked booth or table and seated right by the picture window with beautiful views of their ice rinks and golf course. The food was above and beyond my expectations! Between the 5 people at the table, I sampled the French Onion soup, Sweet & Spicy Brussels, Bacon Smash Burger, Pot Roast Grilled Cheese, Sweet Tees (Donut Holes), Peanut Butter Smore-o, and Verde Dulce. The soup was not salty as I find some iterations, the brussels had complex flavors with hot honey, bacon, candied pistachios, and crumbled feta. The pot roast grilled cheese was very flavorful, but my boyfriend did state he wished the sandwich had more meat in it. The Sweet Tees donut holes were cooked to perfection without being oily and the jam accompaniment was a perfect texture and level of sweet. The Peanut Butter Smore-o was creamy and decadent with its perfectly ratioed layers of ganache, peanut butter mousse, Oreos, and whipped cream. The Verde Dulce, though, was the delicious classic olive oil cake with pistachio gelato & that throwback of candied pistachios from my appetizer. Even better than the food, our server, Kara, was one of the sweetest, most attentive human beings! She answered all of our questions, refilled our fountain drink and iced tea glasses when they were at 75% without prompting, made sure my dad felt celebrated with a candle, etc. Her teammate who was in charge of clearing our table was also prompt and I appreciate her asking what plates she could take. Overall, it was a beautiful late morning/early afternoon with delicious food and impeccable service. 10/10 recommend!!!
