    This is one of your neighborhood comfort food diner. I love it. Its nothing fancy. Pretty small but 2hrs. Service was great and food was great too. The food ia pretty good especially for the price. I just disnt like that the veggies are canned veggies and it didnt taste that great. But will definitely come back! Happy eating

    Take credit card. Have their own parking lot. Open at all hours, never closes It's a chain with 6 locations in Chicagoland. Like people said, it has the look and feel of a Waffle House. They have bar seating and multiple tables indoor. I got their 2-2-2-2 deal for $8.99: 2 eggs, pancakes, sausage, bacon. Got a side of hashbrowns. Overeasy eggs cooked perfectly Pancakes were cooked well, soft buttery. Bacon was crispy, not overcooked. Hashbrowns were disappointing, not very crispy and undercooked.

    Thanks to the awesome staff!! When my train came in late and my hotel cancelled they were a true comfort! Great food! Awesome staff!! Truly the best of Chicago!!!

    2 Eggers with 2 Pancakes with a side of Turkey sausage Patty

    I was on the hunt for a brunch-type steak dinner but was unable to locate on within the area. This place showed up and my husband I decided to give it a try. The location was an easy to find spot. The place looks like it used to be an old Waffle House style layout. The restaurant had its own parking. The inside was clean but gave an old restaurant feel and could use a slight update to bring it to current day old cafe style. The dining space was very small so to be 8 months pregnant I had to eat sideways. None of the tables moved and the place is a tight. So if you are a larger framed person or pregnant like myself - you won't eat comfortably at all. The food was hot and fresh to order. I played it safe and ordered pancakes with 2 eggs and Turkey sausage patties. They won me over with having more than pork as an option. Th food tasted as if it were prepared at home very good on seasoning and flavors. The staff were very kind although many hardly spoke much English which made the entire experience of communication a little hectic. They charge an 18% gratuity for 4 or more people which is a bit much. You don't have to force tips if service is good and their customer service was very nice despite the communication barrier. If I ordered again, it'd probably go be to-go.

    I think it was maybe 11:00 pm when the munchies hit and me and my friend took a short walk to this lil gem. I know everyone has mixed opinions about neighborhood diners. However, do you know how cool it is to have a 24/7 diner that's a 5 minute walk from your front door? I legitimately said I wasn't super hungry and proceeded to order a club blt (untoasted.) Our server," Chunky" was very sweet and super helpful with little tweaks and tips to make sure you got exactly what you wanted. She had the best energy and we even hugged when I left! Super chill vibes from her! My friend ordered the chili cheese purger with seasoned fries and it's your typical quarter pound burger topped with chili, cheese with onions . It comes on a toasted bun and he had seasoned fries and a side of bbq. As mentioned I ordered the blt club and that was bacon, mayo, lettuce and tomato's on white toasted bread. I had a side of regular fries. Everything came out super hot and so fresh. Those fries were so perfect! Crispy on the outside with the most decadent soft inside . So so so good! It was clean plate club for me ! No leftovers lol! If you're up late, early or you just need a quick meal, go give them a shout! It's a cute experience and honestly, it's real food and that's always a great thing about. Thanks so much guys! I'll be wandering over any day now!

    Receipt #2
    Kaitland G.

    Tldr: get an itemized receipt! The food was alright, typical cheap diner food. My review is for the cashier. We got up to check out at the register and the cashier input our stuff without going over what we got and said the total for us was $160. I was shocked because that def didn't sound right because there was only 4 of us, but I was tipsy and just figured that maybe the included gratuity was high. I swiped my card and my friends were like hold on, that doesn't sound right. The cashier starts rattling off what we had and we all said yeah that's what we ordered, but that total is not right. She prints the itemized receipt (attached) after swiping my card and it shows we ordered 10 meals. Like there was only 4 of us, how does that even make sense? We start telling her what's wrong and she gives us the new total of $60 and expects me to swipe my card right away. I had to ask her for a refund on the previous swipe, since she hadn't even done that yet. No apologies or anything taken off for "accidentally" charging me triple the price. I'm posting both of my receipts below, and I've seen other ppl posting similar experiences.

    Steak 'n' Egger corner of Cermak & Racine
    Phil S.

    Ok so I use to have a Steak 'n' Egger on River Road up in Mt Prospect years ago when my Ma & Pa lived in the area, but like many places they disappeared. Fast forward driving down Cermak I passed a Steak 'n' Egger & made a mental note to stop in. Well today was that day. Steak 'n' Egger is on the corner of Cermak & Racine. I had to stop by. Steak 'n' Egger is your typical 50's/60's diner w/stainless steel soffit, SS back splashes & SS kickplates under the counter w/barstools . The walls behind the servers have menu items along w/menus on the counter you can order from. They have a bunch of cool memorabilia on the walls of items from a different era Like the old diners they advertise w/some of their specials. Today I ordered a good old standard breakfast of 2 eggs over easy, 2 sausage Pattie's, 2 pieces of bacon & 2 pancakes. The old 2-2-2-2 special for $8.88. Add in an order of extra crispy hash browns & you have a simple basic meal. This diner is open 24hr a day so if your in the area & have a hankerin fee sum vittles stop on in. Good basic decent food for a good price. Since they're open 24hrs you kin get vittles any time of da day or night, breakfast, lunch or dinner all good. I will definitely be back

    I came in at three A.M., and it was packed for a random Saturday. Chunky and Ashley were amazing servers. I cannot recommend this place enough!

    We went here at about 10 PM on the way home from a ride with a few friends. The service here was pretty kind, decent atmosphere, and the portions are pretty large. The prices are very fair. Old-school diner I haven't tried out before. They take cash, card, and Apple Pay.

    A woman who is miserable and hates her life so she takes it out on other people.
    Shaniqua D.

    While I usually love steak n egger this woman made my experience terrible. If you come in and see her, leave! She hates her job and gives customers unnecessary attitude due to her own personal issues. I asked this lady to give me a receipt or some type of bill to see what I was being charged for, she refused and said that I could see my bill AFTER I paid. She also got my order wrong, which is why I asked to see my bill before being charged. After charging me and seeing that my bill was wrong she refused to fix it or refund me for overcharging me.

    GREAT FOOD. Ashley is the greatest waitress I've experienced in the establishment. Her hospitality was superior upon expectations. Will return for the food as always and will sit inside specifically to be served by Ashley.

    1 Ib. T-Bone Steak with Hashbrowns, and Toast
    Karell B.

    This place is my all time favorite for breakfast/brunch. My bf and I go here ATLEAST once a week when we don't want to make breakfast. This place is great because the wait staff is extremely friendly, the food comes quickly & tastes delicious. Definitely my all time favorite diner -& this really says a lot because I was never a fan of diners until I came to this place. My go to is the T-Bone Steak with sunny side up eggs, hash browns & white toast. My bf goes with the veggie lover's skillet. Both are our absolute favorites and never disappoint. We will DEFINITELY be back soon!

They also have a patio, and with the weather being nice, it was easy to just sit outside and relax for a while. I was honestly too hungry to spend much time deciding, so I just ordered one of the sourdough donut ball. It was exactly what I was hoping for. The outside had a light coating of sugar that gave it just the right amount of sweetness without being too much. Once I bit into it, the inside was soft, airy, and slightly chewy from the sourdough, which made it different from a regular donut. There was a subtle tang from the sourdough that balanced the sweetness really well, so it never felt overly sugary. It had a light crispness on the outside, then a warm, pillowy center that practically melted away with each bite. I finished it way faster than I expected. The only thing I forgot was ordering something to drink with it. Looking back, a good coffee would've made it even better. Still, I'd definitely stop by again the next time I'm in the area.

Our family and extended family often ordered birthday cakes from them, and their mango cake was our favorite. When mangoes were in season, they used plenty of fresh mango in the cakes. Their cakes are always fresh, light, fluffy, and not too sweet. My daughter and I also love their individual cakes, especially the Black Pearl and Walnut Cake. Their pineapple buns and egg tarts are her favorites as well. Saint Anna has also been part of our daughter's childhood. When she was little, my husband used to bring her here before or after Chinese school in Chinatown on Sundays. Her go-to breakfast items were the Butter Bun, Ham and Macaroni in Soup, and Diced Ham and Corn in Cream Rice. As she got older, Curry Chicken with Potato became her favorite. She especially loved the potato cubes soaked in the delicious, mild curry sauce. She would always ask for more potatoes and less chicken, haha! Saint Anna is a family-run business, and Sara and Irene, the daughters-in-law, used to take care of the front of house. They were always so friendly and accommodating. After a 6-year hiatus, we finally returned one Friday recently when we happened to be in the area with a friend. Sara is now a co-owner, and it was wonderful to see her again. She immediately recognized us and was so warm and welcoming. She even asked me to relay her greetings to my sisters when she greeted us and again when we were leaving. Those little gestures made our return feel especially meaningful. We were still full from a big dim sum lunch, so my daughter picked up 2 Mini Pineapple Buns and 2 Paper-Wrapped Sponge Cakes, while I got a Red Bean Roll. Everything was fresh, soft, and delicious, and the total came to just under $8, really a great value. Our friend also purchased 2 Fried Sticky Rice Dumplings with Chicken. I had never really paid attention to their limited dim sum selection before, so that was a nice discovery. We love Saint Anna and will definitely be back whenever we're in the area.
