My waiter was nice, but I feel I would've expected more. I can't blame her completely, I just wish she was more attentive to my table instead of taking orders from other tables that were seated later than me. I understand that they seemed short staffed on a Monday mid morning being so busy. Take this review as you will. Food was good.

We visited for Father's Day breakfast, arriving around 8:10am on Sunday. We were seated…read moreimmediately, though by the time we left, they were on a wait. The food itself was quite good, but the experience was a bit tricky as a gluten-free diner. There are no GF labels on the menu. When I asked our server what I could eat, she initially suggested the gluten-free pancakes and gluten-free toast. However, when I asked if the pancakes were cooked on a separate griddle, she had to check with the manager and confirmed they are not made on a separate surface (though the hashbrowns are cooked separately). Ultimately, they also couldn't toast the GF bread either. I ordered a cheese omelette (cooked in a clean pan) with hashbrowns and untoasted GF bread. While the server wasn't super knowledgeable upfront, I really appreciated her taking the time to verify the kitchen's cross-contamination practices with management. Options are definitely limited, but the meal tasted great. The server also added gluten allergy to the ticket and advised no cross contamination.

Cash only! This…read moreplace is a hidden gem. The servers were super prompt and very friendly. We got there at 7:00am on a Friday and we made it just in time, because by 7:30, every seat was taken... including at the counter. It's an intimate and cozy little place, warm and comfortable. The food was great, with huge portions. I got the Neighbor Benedict, which was a mountain of gravy on top of a biscuit, two sausage patties, and two poached eggs and it included a healthy portion of hash browns with onions. The only thing that was a slight bummer was that this place is cash only, and we didn't know that coming in. Thankfully there was an ATM inside, but the fees were high and my bank charges fees on the other side, so the reasonable prices turned out to be just as expensive as anywhere else. I will bring cash next time and upgrade this review to five stars.

The homemade chips are absolutely delicious & I got a panini which was next level!! Prices are just as amazing as the food. $14 for a full meal and a drink...you can't get that anymore!! I am so excited I found this gem and already planning to come back this weekend!

The first time, my friend recommended Eggslusive and the second time, Yelp did. Anyway, service is quick and friendly, and prices are about what you'd expect for brunch unless you get an expensive special (which we did not ). I loved seeing items on the menu that I don't normally see on brunch menus like halal options, naan dishes, and Mediterranean meals, all of which I was tempted to get. I ended up getting the chicken tinga skillet and substituted to get something called simit as my side instead of toast. The waitress described it as kind of a pretzel bread, which I feel was accurate. Lots of sesame seeds, and it came with jam, which was delicious! The vibe is cozy and local, and come to find out that the business owner is Turkish, which we loved to know and support. I'm also not a bacon person, but I enjoyed the bacon here because I'm not a super super crispy bacon fan. The waitress was also super sweet and provided a coffee refill in a to-go cup for my husband to enjoy in the car on our way back towards Chicago. The only thing is that one of my poached eggs came out more hard boiled than runny, but everything else was great. If I could give 4.5 stars, I would. Note: we got one of 2 parking spaces left remaining, so know that parking can be a bit tight on weekend mornings.
