It's an omelette I wouldn't have normally chosen for myself but I got it and it was amazing. Someone knows technique and flavors back in the kitchen. So Good. The warm welcome when we walked in was a very nice start to it all. So glad we walked in. Go. Look at the menu beforehand. Yes the cinnamon rolls are amazing. The sourdough was some of best I've had. The house made jam was delicious. It's all very good. Such a vibey, cool spot. Absolutely 10/10 recommend

It's kinda pricey, but it is good and fresh. I like to get the classic breakfast. It is a good amount of food, it's 2 eggs, bacon or sausage, breakfast potatoes, and toast. I don't eat meat, but they substitute avocado slices for bacon or sausage. I pay $2 more to get a biscuit because their biscuits are delicious.

The restaurant has a warm tavern-style aesthetic--inviting, comfortable, and perfect for a relaxed celebration. Our waitress was very friendly, attentive, and genuinely personable, which made the experience even more enjoyable. The brunch menu blends English and American influences, offering something for everyone. We tried the Scotch pancakes, which were quite good, and overall everyone at the table enjoyed their meals. The atmosphere was pleasant and unhurried--we never felt rushed, allowing us to truly enjoy the food, conversation, and celebration. A great spot for brunch gatherings .

While eating breakfast we noticed some people were getting dinner, so we decided to order dinner then, since we had a lot of running around to do. I ordered the fried chicken with mac & cheese, yams, & dressing. My wife ordered fried chicken, mac & cheese, greens, and dressing. My daughter had the baked chicken, dressing, greens, & mac and cheese. My daughter's dinner was the only one made correct, mine had mashed potatoes, instead of yams and no dressing. My wife's dinner had no dressing. Everthing is on my reciept tho. I tried calling, but it was after 5pm when I saw my dinner. I'll call again tomorrow

This used to be the go-to local bar to blow off steam after a tough day at work. The clientele is…read morecomprised of a really cool mix of local south- siders (read: White Sox fans!) and UChicago staff/students. There is an epic wall mural that features different aspects of the city, including a huge Barack Obama head. As I said: epic. The bar is separated into two distinct parts, divided by a counter/tables in the center (you have to walk all the way around if you want to switch sides or move at the tables). On one side is the bar and a few TVs to watch the games, giving it a louder sports bar kind of vibe. On the other side there are a bunch of tables--almost like picnic tables. It feels very communal and laid-back. It's a place you can sip on drinks and easily spend time with a group of friends. The Cove is very group-friendly. My favorite part? My friend brings his dog there and it's no problem. Is this bar a dive? Yes. Do I care? No. Do I actually love it? Absolutely. Best bar on the area, hands down.

The servers are great and attentive. The food does not disappoint! I love the pot roast and jalapeño cheddar grits. That is sooooo good you cannot go wrong ordering that. I've also had the fried catfish on top of the jalapeño cheddar grits, and it was delicious as well! The French toast is very good as well. I tried the fried chicken for the first time during my last visit, and it was impressed. Overall, this is a nice establishment with good food options. They serve breakfast all day, so you don't have to go at a certain time of day to try it. I recommend booking a reservation during the weekends because they can get pretty busy. Parking on the streets is limited, but there is a parking garage around the corner that allows visitors to park on the top floor. Go check them out for some delicious food and drinks!

This place has a lot of personality: old wood finishes, "graffiti" on every reachable wall and sill. I wanted to follow the other reviews and get the calamari and the chili. The calamari was very good, but has a short shelf life. The chili was nice, but a little toothless. Also had the cubano which was rich in pickles which is always a plus. I guess, since it's claiming a deli in-residence, I'd try the deli sandwich specialities.

Several staff members walked by and noticed, but no one offered assistance until I was finally able to get our server's attention. Our lemonade never arrived, and my meal came with pickles despite specifically requesting none. The food itself was underwhelming. We stopped in because we were already in the area, but it's not somewhere I'd go out of my way to visit again. The restaurant is in a college town, so it definitely has a younger, student-heavy crowd, but it is family friendly.

The Italian beef was nice and hot and the cheese totally melted into the meat. The same for the Italian beef my husband said the bread was fresh and the meat was seasoned perfectly.
