Since moving to the area, Ozzie's has quickly become our favorite weekend tradition. There's a great energy here--lots of regulars and a staff that treats you like one from day one. We've worked our way through the menu, but the skillets and waffles are consistent winners. The Pro Tip: Get "Ozzie's Favorite." The country fried steak is perfectly crispy, and that sausage gravy is the real deal. It's the ultimate comfort food. read more

Ozzie's Diner - Omelette with toast and pancakes - American Near Me - Aurora, Illinois

Very disappointed with the service I received today on 10/06/2025. I called to place one order of two biscuits and gravy with just ONE extra biscuit. After confirming and repeating my order making sure I wasn't being charged for two entrees when I only wanted one and a side biscuit. Ok get to the store I was proceeded to get charged for two orders of the biscuits when I repeated over and over my concern how I specifically wanted to make sure I am not paying for TWO entrees when I just wanted a extra piece of biscuit on the side. I asked the manager to remove the other entrée because I only wanted one, she proceeded to say that that would be a waste of food and she did not want to do that. That is beyond me that they would rather lose a loyal customer that's been coming here for years rather than making sure the customer is happy and satisfied. When I drove out of my way to come to the specific diner passing so many on my way... thank you so much for ruining my experience and to be honest I would not have done there there are so many other places with better quality service or you can actually get treated like family not like here. Very rude very unprofessional didn't even bother to fix their mistake. I was so disgusted with the service that I did not even care to even touch my food. So I proceeded to throw away $25 worth of food when it should've only costed me $12 thank you so much. read more

Ozzie's Diner - Cream of chicken soup and Fresh Squeeze Orange Juice - American Near Me - Aurora, Illinois

We've always passed by this restaurant on our way to Sam's club, finally decided to try and have breakfast. We were not disappointed! We came on a weekday so there's not a lot of people, service was fast. The servings are really generous, you can see in the picture how thick the scrambled eggs are! Aside from generous servings, it is not too expensive and the food's delicious! read more

I had to fend off multiple flies this afternoon as my family of four sat down for a meal at Ozzie's Diner in Aurora. Not to mention one of our four waters had a small dead fly in it. The place is disgusting and the food was trash. Get rid of the nasty flies you're running a restaurant. read more

I've never had bad food here. I think I have tried all Ozzie's soup even ones I normally don't like and I love them all. Today was chicken tortilla soup. Yum Always have great service as well. read more

Ozzie's is a friendly breakfast spot with good food and reasonable prices. What more can you ask...I've had their omelettes which are very big but good, tasty pancakes and a big menu. Recommend. read more

Stopped in on a Saturday morning. It was our first visit. Our server was very friendly and did a nice job talking about the menu highlights. We ordered the Kentucky Bennie and Hashstack. The menu was full of very original choices as far as breakfast items go, which was refreshing. It made our choices difficult! Both meals were delicious! The sausage and gravy were very flavorful, which came on top of these entrees. It was decorated nicely in what I would call "classic diner." The cinnamon swirl toast was something totally different, and it was to die for! I know I probably have like 10 places in my top brunch place rotation, but this one needs to be there!! read more

The food is delicious! My family and I have been going regularly for about 2 yrs now and have never had anything we don't love! Some of my favorites are the chicken and waffles, the fruit crepes, the pancakes, the fried fish and their burgers. Their breakfast potatoes are out of this world! The staff are the friendliest people I have ever met at a restaurant and make me feel like I'm around family and friends! The prices are amazing, especially at a time like this!! Give them a try!! read more

Excellent service, delicious food at a very reasonably priced menu. I had their breakfast for my lunch. It has three scrambled eggs, two strips of nicely crisp bacon, plus two huge sausages, and cubed potatoes all topped off with two biscuits covered by really tasty gravy. read more

Wonderful food, super tasty, very generous portions with good presentation. Service was good, our waitress was very attentive and friendly. All in all a great place for breakfast any time! read more

This is my absolute favorite breakfast spot in the Oswego/Aurora/Naperville area. The prices are extremely reasonable, the portions are more than generous, and the food is GOOD. Some highlight are their freshly squeezed orange juice and their cinnamon swirl bread. Something that's super important to me and kind of rare for breakfast places is the pork alternatives for the breakfast meats. Ozzie's offers both turkey bacon and turkey sausage on their menu. My favorite thing to get is the hash stack. Their pancakes are ginormous, you really can't go wrong here. The staff is incredibly nice as well. Ozzie's is on a few of the food delivery apps and you can also place pickup orders online or by calling the store. Although the outside is deceiving, I promise you it's some of the best food you'll have in the area. read more

First things first, I absolutely love their fries! I have no shame and will go eat here simply because I am craving their fries. All the food that I have had from here has been great, but I definitely have a love for their fries. The staff is also great and checks in often which I appreciate. This place has mom and pop diner vibes and I love it! read more

We ordered breakfast, and the food was great, it was a weekday, so not too busy. Our waitress was fast , efficient and attentive. I would highly recommend this diner. Again, great food and Service! read more

Great breakfast spot. Amazing food and service. Huge portions for the price. Tres leche pancakes are fantastic!

Everything was just ok Coffee was fine & refilled often. Kentucky Bennie was decent but a bit of a mess on a plate & could use more biscuit in there. Other guy got a skillet, it was huge & came with cinnamon toast Bill was $40 B4 tip for 2 breakfasts & 1 coffee Waaaaay to much $$$$ read more

Really good food! Service it's really great and friendly people! Also the place it's really clean and well organized:)!!!

Went for the first time the other day and really enjoyed everything. My wife had the Chickens and Waffles, so flavorful and I had the Kentucky Bennie with scrambled eggs, so delicious! The service was awesome and the restaurant is so inviting. Highly recommend and will be back for sure! read more

Ozzie's is the best! The service is amazing and the food is always good. Try the chicken skillet which is made with strips of chicken, onions, green peppers, hash browns and mushrooms if you like and topped with two eggs made the way you like. It comes with two pancakes or toast. He also has lunch and dinner specials like cod dinner special and fried chicken. On Sundays he has a menu with many items, sometimes including steak and pork chops and other specials. The homemade soup is delicious. Ozzie's pricing is reasonable in the range of a family breakfast restaurant. Hours are 7 am to 3 pm. read more

Ozzies is one of my breakfast favorites. It's a nice size restaurant with plenty of parking. Good clean environment, good customer service really good food and plenty of it.. i've been to Ozzie's plenty of times with different guests never had a problem. Michael.W. read more

Preface : our friends raved about the "eggs Benny" so of course had to try it. This is a review based on one trip. Will update after next visit. Food : eggs were over cooked and broken. Hash browns were burnt. Ham was for sure frozen then thawed. And the "English muffin" was a giant piece of bread that wouldn't even cut with a steak knife... take away - not good. Service : awesome! Friendly knowledgeable about the menu and open to new pie ideas :) Ambiance : old timey. Had a couple of TVs and the fresh OJ machine is super cool! read more

Great service, delicious breakfast, very family friendly. You can tell this is a favorite breakfast spot for many folks.

We live a few blocks away, so this is a weekend go to. Dining in is always a hit. Delivery/take out can be hit or miss. Love the staff, the dining room is fantastic. Exactly what you want, and our kids love the Oreo pancakes! Only reason it's not a 5 star review is because we've had some misses on the take out. Otherwise, love Ozzie's! read more

Visited again with my daughters and grandson.. The food was great. Homemade corned beef hash skillet served in a stainless steel skillet. The service was great, and so was the food. Parking was close and accessible. I highly recommend people start their day off with a meal here. I added to my family memories! Thankyou Ozzies and staff. Well done! read more

This was our first visit here, come hungry! We came in the middle of the week and we were seated right away. The inside is very nice and has a pleasant appeal. Our waitress was very nice and brought our drinks to us straight away. The food is very good portions...I would suggest you come hungry!! You won't leave feeling like you didn't get enough to eat. I had the Haystack skillet and asked for my hash browns extra crispy (or well done). It came with the cinnamon swirl toast which was amazing! My wife had the egg white vegetable omelette with assorted fruit and the cinnamon swirl toast as well. The food was delicious! We will definitely come back. read more

Been here twice and I've ordered the same thing both times because the first time it was so good!!! My little one and I went the first time for breakfast. This used to be another diner that closed a bit after Covid. I was so happy to see that someone was opening it again and this time it got a facelift. It's amazing what a fresh coat of paint and new floors can do to a place. We were seated right away and waters were given to us immediately. Our server was very pleasant and she brought out our drinks. Coffee for me and my little one got chocolate milk which they added whip cream and sprinkles to and my daughter was in heaven. The first time I was there I had the Huevos Rancheros. Layers of tortillas with black beans, guacamole, pepper jack cheese, beef barbacoa, ranchero sauce and sprinkled with cotija cheese. I had my eggs over easy and they were perfect!!! My meal came with coffee and the coffee was pretty good too. My daughter had the Oreo pancakes and those were amazing!! Lots of Oreo crumbles, chocolate sauce and cream cheese spread. The second time I was there my daughter and I ordered the same thing as before and it was just as fantastic. My son had the meat lovers skillet and he said it was very good. I can see myself going here for breakfast very often. Highly recommend this diner. read more

Great breakfast, fast attentive service!! Will be back! Clean relaxing vibe! The staff are super friendly and obviously care about their customers! read more

The extensive menu has all the breakfast/brunch/lunch favorites and it was hard to choose. The Stuffed French Toast I decided on had a deliciously sweet smear of cream cheese in-between the stacked round slices of bread. The bananas, and blueberries were fresh and ripe, and the strawberry compote was tasty. My husband had the 4 EGG Veggie omelet with rye toast, and (the star of the dish) the home fries. The omelet was huge but otherwise average. The home fries, however, were fresh, hot, and delicious! Seasoned and crispy on the outside but fluffy and moist on the inside, the serving was big enough for both of us to enjoy and still have leftovers. So good! Service was friendly and decor was clean and casual. Looking forward to trying other dishes at Ozzie's in the future! read more

Excellent Breakfast and Service. Plentiful portions. Reasonably priced. You will not be disappointed. Servers very friendly and attentive.

Great breakfast food with good portions , but like all restaurants now a bit pricey oh well.

5 stars! Plus 5 because of that lovely aura the lady in the front desk has, she is so full of life with a beautiful smile and a very pleasing personality greeting everyone Good Morning! That' who you want to see in the morning for breakfast. The place is clean and it looked newly renovated, just moved to the area so I don't know if it's been here before or just opened. Anyways came across this after that first breakfast place we came to was full and we had to wait plus my husband was complaining that he does not like to be there, so yelped this place and he was so happy seeing the place. Everyone was nice, place was clean, they have fresh orange juice squeezed right before your very eye lol and good food. We loved this place and child friendly. Def a recommend!! q read more

The staff are really friendly and efficient. The food is very good. We've been there multiple times and never had a bad meal. I wanted something that wasn't on the menu, Tres leches waffle and chicken, they discussed it and made it for me. It was tremendous! Can't say enough about the staff there. Had a great discussion with John the owner and they might put it on as the Gary special! read more

People!!! This place is Amazing! The food is so so good; the customer service is awesome, and Dashka and Jimy (owners) are the Most Friendliest people. Every time me and my son, or my son and his girlfriend come to Ozzie's, they welcome us at the door and open it (if they are in the front); they come to talk with us at the table like old friends. The portions are really big and I have never had something that was just "okay". The food is just amazing. Would recommend 110% read more

I live in downtown Aurora and one of the things we need more of are breakfast spots. We have a few coffee spots with pastries and delicious Mexican breakfast options. But no real hearty breakfast places to walk over to. When I want something like this I hop in the car and hit up Ozzie's. Just a few minutes away by car. I have yet to be disappointed. Excellent food, service and coffee. Today I tried the Greek omelette (no onions), Greek toast, and coffee. Another delicious combo! Highly recommend this place. read more
