The staff was fine, but the food was not. I ordered open beef roast sandwich. The meat was tough, the gravy tasted like, well, I don't know what it tasted like, but it wasn't good. Instant mashed potatoes. Ewww. read more

The food was very tasty but I had potato pancakes and hash browns I should have had the fruit option I turned it into a skillet which I don't want. The wait staff was very nice and always checking on me they are definitely 5 star. The restaurant is nicely setup for a family to eat together and very comfortable. The staff not thing I guess is happening everywhere now is if you use a credit/debit card there is a 3.99% fee added I rarely carry cash and now Iam paying for it. LOL read more

First, don't be put off that it is in a strip mall. The seating is quick, and the space is roomy. Our waitress was quick and professional. My wife got the Triple Berry French Toast - she said there has just too much cream cheese icing, but the berries were good. I got the 2 pork chop breakfast - 2 eggs, hashbrowns, with pancakes. I was expecting 2 little pork tenderloins, but got 2 huge pork chops that took up the entire plate. It was all great, and I was quite full. And after dining in Chicago for several meals, the price here was GREAT! read more

Nice breakfast stop Crowded and a bit chaotic Food was very good though. Would go back depending on the wait time. read more

Had a gem of a time in Diamond, IL brunching at this Yelp find! The plaza and restaurant look relatively new, and the menu has pages and pages of breakfast and lunch options like pancakes, waffles, skillets, all the popular egg dishes, hot and cold sandwiches, soup, and salads. Kids' menu has all the favorites for $4.50-6, which comes with a drink. The mac and cheese appears to be Kraft or something very similar. My Philly beef panini had very crisp, crunchy bread, and the meat was piping hot. The base price had a small cup of soup included, but you can upgrade to a deluxe meal which includes a side of choice. The portion was very hefty, and I left very full! The table also gets a bread and cracker basket at the start of the meal. Friendly service and roomy interior. Thanks Yelp! read more

If you are passing through on I-55 I highly recommend you detour a few minutes to come eat here. I got this massive, tasty breakfast for under $20. The service was fast, friendly and attentive. The place was clean and a lot of parking. read more

I love this place so much! So many options and everything is great and portions are large. I didn't know a place could make a simple eggs & toast breakfast so delicious. Perfectly cooked eggs and the breakfast potatoes are amazing. Soups & sandwiches are also yummy. read more

Driving down state. We wanted a great breakfast and driving a few minutes off the highway was definitely worth it. Friendly service and excellent food. Coffee was good too. read more

This is a somewhat hidden gem in coal city! It's a little restaurant tucked away from the main road. I grew up in Shorewood and this restaurant reminds me a lot of Crispy Waffle and The Southern Cafe, which is fantastic! They definitely need to expand to give the check out and servers more room to walk during busy weekends. Very few places can cook my eggs the way I like them! (Over hard without any burnt egg pieces) very yummy and definitely will be my go to place now that I moved to Braidwood. Love it! read more

We came here for the biscuits and gravy and it did NOT disappoint!! Creamy and full of flavor and the biscuits were just a little crispy (like they were fried on a hot skillet. DIVINE. The waitress was awesome and locals come and meet up, which is always a good sign. Clean bathrooms as well. 10/10 recommend! read more

This restaurant has okay food the servers very accommodating but the rude sharp behavior from the checkout person is unnecessary!

Love this place for breakfast on weekend. The staff is always so nice. Great prices with a lot of options.

Quick place to get a good meal. They are always friendly and have lots to choose from.

Just a typical breakfast & lunch restaurant. Nothing spectacular. No gluten free choices... have to ask food to be specifically cooked in butter otherwise you get food cooked in something called "Fry Pan Oil" or margarine. read more

This is my favorite place. Bitching food. Awsome people and truthfully best dinner that has been in town in a while.

We ordered the fried chicken. It was not edible. It was burnt to where it dried it out and you couldn't chew it. When we told the waitress, she let the guy know that was at the register. He took half off of our bill. We didn't even eat half the food. Not very happy with the service today, or how they handled it. And by the way... the owner was doing the cooking. read more

It's a nice little place. They always seem overwhelmed and understaffed. Food has always been good. Nothing in particular that stands out so far, but I keep going back. read more

About time this town did something right. Breakfast was awesome. And they actually had a decent menu. Was really appreciative of that. read more

So let me start off with its bright, warm neutral colors but inviting. Was greeted and just for kicks figured I'd ask for a certain waitress, just pointed out one, I've never eaten here btw.Got breakfast, very large menu like a book but more to look at. Waitress was nice, smiled and greeted us (2 people) she kept our drinks full and when I asked for more sugar she brought me a cup full of packets. I use a lot of sugar. We ordered quite a lot of food. OMG the biscuits and gravy are excellent, steak was cooked perfectly and french toast with pecans, bananas & caramel (I highly recommend if you want a big butt). Asked for corn beef hash to be crispy and it was! A little pricey but you know good food isn't cheap. So it was worth the $. Our waitress was awesome she brought me to go boxes and a bag and I didn't have to ask. Yes, my eyes were bigger than my stomach. But I'm not cooking later now! When checking out was told our waitress was new and her first day. Our coffee cups were full and so was the soda we got. Well worth the money when you get a good food and a happy waitress who can do her job right. Some staff looked like they hated to be there. (Just a hint FAKE IT!) Thank you to all the essential workers who show up with a smile. read more

The kids chocolate chip pancakes were a disgusting mess there was chocolate everywhere and they placed the bacon on top of the chocolately mess instead of in its own container cuz it was a to go order. The hostess said, "is that all you are going to eat?" To me that came across as rude and it wasn't even for me. Online it said it was $4.20 and she charged me $5.50. $1.30 is a lot for tax. Unless they are one of those places that charge more for to go orders. And the little girl that it was for said the chocolate chip pancakes didn't taste good. She said she didn't want all that chocolate on her bacon and that the bacon would have been good without chocolate on it. I will try it one more time next time for eat in. read more

Came back to town to visit some friends and they claimed this place was legit. They were not wrong. Got the gypsy skillet and I'd give it a 8/10. The waffles and omelettes that my friends had looked good. Must've tasted good too cause they ate all of it without offering me a bite. Rude, but I'll look past it. The coffee was surprisingly really delicious. I would for sure come back. read more

Great service and delicious food. The prices were right and the portions were generous. I will be coming back!

Coal city finally has a restaurant that's close to perfect. Excellent menu, delicious meal, friendly service and reasonable prices. It's a regular stop for us every Friday. We brag about MHC. read more

I love this place. We usually get breakfast. My favorite is the fajita skillet. I also love their soups. You can even take a quart home for $5.00. The service is also good. I'm so glad our community final has a great spot like this. read more

Service was superb. Waitress scored 25%. However, the Country Fried Steak was very, very poor. Gravy had a queer flavor, kind'a sweet but weird. Way not normal. Would not order again. Person #2 said Biscuits & Gravy were barely warm. Assumed the COLD plate they were on was the cause. Disappointed. Person #3 said the sausage was bad tasting and decided not to eat it or order it again. Collectively if this was our first visit it would have been our last. Person #3 had Lunch there this week and raved about it. read more

Good food, but sometimes hit or miss. Wish the place was a little cleaner, I have gotten several dishes with leftover food or drink on them. Good wait staff, happy to have this place in our small town. read more

very good and reliable breakfast spot, the food is cooked perfectly and they will accommodate any requests. they have a large menu with each individual item standing out in its own way and deliciousness, but nothing too complicated. i've been a regular for years and they have yet to disappoint for me, i have many many menu favorites and the prices are good too. read more

Great food decent prices. The family enjoys this places. Just wish they were open for dinner as well
