The food…read moretastes very fresh: the salad was crunchy & balanced, the BLT wasn't too salty & full of flavor, and the chorizo hash had a great ratio of meat/veggies/egg. Their playlist curates a cozy vibe, 90s disco with modern flair. The seating was very comfortable. If you're looking to do some work here, there's an outlet accessible booth on the left side. You'll notice everyone wearing a shirt that says "Food is our LOVE language" & it really shows. This is the kind of spot you hope never changes.

I've heard rumors that this was the go to corner spot for a great meal. To my surprise it wasn't…read morewhat I expected , I arrived with guests as we all wanted to try something different. I chose the turkey sandwich and it was kind of a let down. The best thing was the nice crunch from the toast it came on. There were maybe two slices of turkey on the sandwich. The rest was crisp lettuce and fresh tomato. The fries were great. The breakfast burrito was good but overly saucy it took away the flavor from the ingredients inside. The French toast was great if you have a sweet tooth but the bread was slightly smaller than I expected. The ambiance isn't anything extravagant but also homely in a way. It's a solid 4 and not a back to back ,but will consider going again in the future.

Our server was Kristina and she was fabulous, and just the sweetest girl. We had the Saganaki for an appetizer, neither of us have ever heard of it before, and boy we were not disappointed. It was wonderful! Full of flavor and when you use the warm bread with it... out of this world! I had the Athenian omelet with Greek toast and a side of bacon. Absolutely phenomenal. Hubs had the Border Skillet with pancakes and said it was delicious too! I'm so glad we found this place! It was the perfect ending to our weekend getaway!

I had a delicious ham steak. Not out here this often but would absolutely come back #familystyle #chicago

We will be back to try other items on their GIANT menu.

I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a good brunch spot in Jefferson Park!

It's an old school diner feel - box cereal, pies in a cooler, cooks busting out great meal after meal. Takes you right back to the 90's. My first time here and brought my parents. We all loved it. Dined for $115 with tip and we all had an omelette with a protein, side of bacon, and coffees. I got the Spartan omelette. It was recommended and right up my alley with mushrooms, tomatoes, spinach, and feta cheese. I also added bacon and it was delicious! I was able to get it with a cut banana and it was perfectly ripe. My husband got the Denver omelette which is also know as a Western- ham, onion, bell pepper, and American cheese. He really liked his as well as my parents who ordered Corned Beef Hash omelette and Spartan. I will definitely be back! It was so good, we didn't even take a second to snap a pic!

The interior is decked out in old school decor with many memorabilia of comic/animation characters from a bygone era. The staff is friendly and direct, the cooks move competently and for food they have all of the expected classics at good prices, while also offering a rotating monthly specials with unique items that do really feel "special". The bathroom could use some updating and the space is a bit tight and warm from the kitchen. But overall the food is solid, the prices are fair, and the staff are friendly. If your local or visiting and looking for a classic diner , I would highly recommend you visit this unique and timeless establishment.

Just us, a quiet room, and a whole lot of good energy. Every server working that morning was incredibly friendly and attentive. Maybe it was because we were the only ones there. Maybe it was the Christmas spirit. Maybe a perfect mix of both. Whatever it was, it turned a simple brunch into a genuinely lovely experience. And the food? As always, excellent and abundant, comforting, generous, and exactly what you want when you're settling into a holiday mood. Sometimes it's not just about what's on the plate, but how a place makes you feel. That morning, Eggsperience felt warm, welcoming, and just right.

The service took a long time, also to begin with just to get a decaf coffee and a tequila sunrise that looked terrible, NOTHING LIKE THE PICTURE that gets displayed on the table. Then I ordered my breakfast with my eggs poached. The food took forever to arrive, and my eggs were fried. I made the waitress aware of it and she said that she would get them replaced. By time she got around to remembering my eggs I was at a point that I had eaten the rest of my breakfast and some of the whites of the fried eggs since I was hungry. She said that we're almost ready. Really?! Then she added that she would get them ready to go instead and not charge me. Who cares at that point? A few minutes later, some other waitress brings the eggs to the table on a plate with the doily to eat at the table. I am one of those people that are very patient, but I've had it at that point and asked for the check. I just threw the coach X into the to go boxes that a different waitress had gotten for me. I am even mad at myself for tipping decently. I'm never going back to this location and I don't know why I did. The one on Irving Park by six corners is 10 times better and closer to home. I just wanted to go for a little drive with my son on that day. Lo and behold, a friend of mine actually told me that a person that lived around at Elmwood Park one distinctly told about the bad service there. Horrible!
