    Dear Julie salad on a cold bowl, yummo!
    Dinah T.

    This is my local breakfast place. Been coming here for many years! It's family owned and they have a couple of restaurants in the Chicagoland area. I enjoy coming here mostly for breakfast. I like their service as well. The place is spacious and you can actually have big parties here like 10+ and more to be seated. They have sitting booths as well. They have a couple of TVs if you enjoy watching TV while you eat. They have their own private parking lot. On to the food. I like their open face turkey sandwich. It's on top of white bread slices of turkey with brown gravy with mashed potatoes and a little bit of stuffing and cranberry jelly. Reminds me a little Thanksgiving meal. They have daily different soups. My favorite is the cream, rice and chicken soup so thick and creamy. I like their breakfast meals, their menu is extensive. I believe you can have breakfast anytime of the day. You can have a skillet or a huge omelet, bacon on the side love extra crispy myself or any way you want, they're accommodating if you ask. I like their canned peaches and cottage cheese. The peaches are halves, which I like. Their steaks are ok and ribs too. This is more of a family friendly place. A lot of seniors come here and dine. It's not divey, but they still have carpeted floors and a diner bar type situation in the back of the restaurant if you like to sit there and watch the staff grab and make orders. And don't forget the desserts they have pies and cakes from a local bakery as well as if you buy the full dinner meal, your dessert comes with it. You can eat it or take it to Go, which is a plus. My favorite salad is the Julie salad which is iceberg lettuce in a very cold bowl and comes with slices of deli meat of turkey and ham, American cheese and Swiss cheese hard, boiled egg, red onion, and some kind of green olives, chopped relish. It's so good sometimes you don't even need dressing, but I love their house made thousand island dressing that looks pink, which I believe they use canned beets for the color it's so good sometimes I ask to go of extra salad dressing cause sometimes I can't finish the salad by myself in one sitting. Overall, a great place to just chill and hang out and enjoy a nice meal. I definitely come back here again and again!

    First time at the West East American Diner! Seated immediately and our drinks order taken immediately - Fast customer service! For the appetizer we ordered the Mozzarella sticks which were good. For my main entree I got the Belgian waffle w/ pecans, side of Sweet Potato Fries, and two eggs sunny side up. The diner has an old school but lively ambiance. Definitely worth checking out for breakfast, lunch or dinner.

    We were in the area. Have not been here in a while so we decided to dine here tonight. The restaurant was packed and large enough that you don't really hear the people's conversations at the next table... which we liked! Our waitress Roseanne was so sweet, she gave us glasses of ice water and a bread basket when we sat down. The bread basket had about 20 packages of crackers, 4 croissants and 2 pieces of Italian thick sliced bread. It was really soft and delicious. My husband ordered the Russian Reuben, but he doesn't like his corn beef cooked so they served it cold and the sandwich was so huge it was served open face. He ordered the deluxe because it comes with a soup or dinner salad and fries. He liked it but told me would try something else next time. I ordered the turkey dinner. It comes with a soup of salad so I picked the dinner salad with creamy garlic dressing. I can't have tomatoes because tomatoes cause me arthritis pain so I did not have that on my salad. The turkey dinner was really good except the stuffing was on the sweet side with yellow raisins which I did not expect...so I did not eat more than a small bite of the stuffing. I probably won't order it again. I am more of a savory stuffing fan. The Ala Carte Dinner also came with dessert. My husband and I split a piece of chocolate cream pie. It was delicious! If you're looking for a family friendly restaurant with lots of food options you have to give this restaurant a try. They have breakfast, sandwiches, dinners, Italian food... and more

    Awesome all around. We had a party of 12 and every single one of our food items were accurate. Our waitress was great. She was very polite and attentive, really made all of us feel welcome My only complaint would be that the Country Fried Steak was overcooked, it was chewy and tough to chew. I wouldn't order it again, but would definitely go back and try other items from their menu. Everything else was good

    Breakfast at  dappers today!!!!

    Always love this place! Not one thing i wouldnt like but the dust on the windows. Overall the restaurant is good!

    Love the fried cod with baked mac and cheese.

    I love Dapper's Restaurant. Have gone there for years. Today we had fried cod with baked mac and cheese. It was very good. Loved the clam chowder souo. Grestvsrkectuon in the bread basket including muffins. We had their chocolate mousse cake for dessert. I highly recommend everything we ordered.

    The Mediterranean wrap too big and loosely put together to pick up, let alone fit in my mouth.

    See all

    SLOW service. Took our order after a 10 minute wait. Received soup ten minutes later. We're at the 50 minute mark and STILL no food.
