Nick Jr's Grill - New menu as of 9-4-25 - American Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Decided to stop at Nick Jr's again for breakfast. It surely did not disappoint! Once again food was served hot and delicious, service was wonderful and every one seems to work very well together! This is a well oiled machine that is consistent with their offerings, don't miss it! At Nick Jr's they are adding an additional $1.00 per order of eggs which consists of 3 eggs, not like other places that are up charging $1.00 per egg! Great little place stop by and give them a try. read more

The food here is always fresh and delicious. Good prices. They have great daily specials. I especially like the Chilequiles or the omlets. The service is friendly and fast, usually our waitress is the owner. And she has definately found her calling! It has a casual, friendly atmosphere, where they treat you like family. --- La manĝaĵo ĉi tie estas ĉiam freŝa kaj bongusta. Kun bonaj prezoj. Mi ege rekomendas ĝin!! read more

This little spot is a gem, fresh food always, family oriented. Amazing service. Maria the owner is the sweetest lady.

Some of the appeal is the fact that I can walk to Nick Jr's which is so nice. Everyone working there was super friendly and the food was exactly what I was hoping for. Corned beef hash was not greasy and good crispy edges. Plenty of coffee. Will definitely go back... lots to try on the menu! read more

Great food & amazing service with the feeling of a small town diner! Menu includes breakfast all day & Mexican favorites as well as burgers & salads read more

Nick Jr's Grill - Breakfast for lunch with my granddaughter - American Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

I went right at 6am hungry and needing some breakfast sustenance. Great family owned place and my waitress was quite kind and wonderful. Only person in the place which was awesome. Got feta on my scrambled eggs and their red hot sauce is fire. Looking forward to making this a regular thing. read more

So I came here becoz of the good reviews and I needed a quick lunch. I ordered a Milanesa torta which is basically a breaded steak sandwich. On the menu it was listed at $6.95 and I also got a bottle of coke. When I went to pay the owner said my will was $14 and that the coke cost $4. I'm like wtf that still doesn't add up to 14 bucks. She said the sandwich cost went up to. Um, update you costs upfront so customers don't feel ripped off! I understand prices went up everywhere but don't try to rip off customers! Will def not go here again!! read more

Food is always delicious never disappoints and customer service is great. Love supporting family businesses like these

We have been visiting Nick Jr's for years. Small family owned business w/ an excellent cook. Reasonably priced w/ huge servings. So many good things on the menu, it is hard to choose, but you really can't go wrong. The breakfasts, the Mexican food as well the soups are great. All the service has been superb. Check it out... read more

I always order The taco dinner with beans and rice. Always good! I have tried the jumbo taco and that is good too! You will only need one. read more

What an unsuspecting pleasant surprise. Been driving by for a few years now and never tried it - it's in a spot that had been a pizza place for years - almost seems odd that a breakfast/lunch restaurant with a focus on Mexican food is located there. So finally on one of my Sunday morning jaunts home from work, I went in. Just a couple tables were seated when I arrived and one left shortly after, so it wasn't too busy. Quickly decided on getting the special - a country fried steak with three eggs and hashbrowns along with a biscuit in gravy. All in all, everything on that plate was good. It took a little longer than I expected to get it out to me, but that might be because everything seemed like it was cooked from square one. The three eggs seemed more like two and a half - but they were pretty good. Hashbrowns were nice and fresh and not greasy in the least! Chicken fried steak was excellent too - biscuit w/gravy awesome. Service was cheerful. A guy I work with had recommended this place awhile back and that was my tipping point as to whether or not to go there. Glad I checked it out - I'll be back read more

Was looking for a new place for brunch and saw this on line. Very small place but busy and lots of happy customers.... This food is very very good. Our food was delicious and the lovely woman who served us could not be nicer. I cannot wait to come back and try some of the other dishes!! read more

I've been coming here for breakfast for a few years now. On this visit, my last, I noted the new menus (same menu items, just new format), which turned out to be a bad omen. I ordered my usual - Huevos Ranchero. No rice and extra beans as a substitute. Waitress, who's served me for years, says extra beans need to be ordered as a side item because they're more expensive. This is a first any restaurant, let alone this one, has said that. OK, so I order the side of beans. They can't be that expensive unless their Jack's magic beans. Order comes and there isn't a fried tortilla under the eggs!!! A must in my book!!! And done here consistently in the past! I tell the waitress, the same waitress who served me this order the way I like it for years, says that they never do that!!! Well they don't need to do it any further, because I paid the bill and left and will never be back. Damn new menus!!! read more

I ordered the veggie omelette which included potatoes I added cheese, onions & bell peppers. Service was quick & polite. Food was okay. The experience was the equivalent of going to my aunt's house for breakfast. Nothing special. The prices were standard, & I can honestly say that I would only return if I was once again at Jiffy Lube feeling malnourished. There was nothing about this place that provided a "wow factor". Sorry. read more

SO yummy. Amazing prices. The steak tacos are delicious...I want them every day for lunch! :) Highly recommend this place! read more

Discovered this place that is open before work and I haven't myself been disappointed. I ordered the pork chop special first time and 2 pork chops for $10 first thing in the morning isn't bad. I recommended it to my boss and she ordered it my second visit and said the chops were dry. I will be back again. It just seems like a hit or miss incident. read more

Delicious breakfast! Pancakes are perfectly done & very fluffy! Definitely recommend !!!

Not only do they make great breakfast they also have great Mexican food. I had the chicken tacos and it was a success! The chicken was very flavorful and not dry like a lot of places. My boyfriend got a steak burrito and it was gone in 30 seconds so I guess it was also good. Can't decide what to eat? Come here! They seem to have it all; from traditional breakfast to Mexican and Burgers. Really nice staff and good inexpensive food. They also always have great specials. read more

5 stars. Why? For what it is (small diner) and what they do (outstanding, consistent food) this warrants Five Stars. Breakfast, Lunch or Dinner, they do it well, dine in or carry out. Today had the Pork Chop Breakfast Special (chop, 3 eggs, hashbrowns and toast) and wife had the chillequilles in green sauce, 3 eggs over easy, which comes with rice and refried beans. OFF THE HOOK. If you haven't been, GO. If you've been before go again; they do a bang up job with everything. Prices are reasonable, limited dining space, but we live right down the street so often carry out. read more

Only eaten breakfast from here. Morning breakfast are awesome. The place is clean and service is good also!

I'm entitling this review: Grits & Snow Today's grits were just the way I like 'em, smooth & creamy :) The snow, all the dang snow, me don't likey so much :/ The end. read more

The food is good. But you better watch your receipt because the lady at the counter is overcharging and when I asked her to break it down she caught an attitude so be careful when you come up in this restaurant. Would have gave them a five. But, you shouldn't cheat people. read more

We took a flyer on this place as my wife had a strong hankering for a breakfast burrito. Holy crap we love this place! The food is really, really good.. Best chilaquiles I've ever had. It is a small operation so the wait was a bit longer than we anticipated... but if you know that going in, you'll be fine. We will definitely be back. read more
