It's a great place to have breakfast in Chicago with Chicago sports and skyline themed decorations. The skillet was wonderful. The hash browns weren't dry and the egg and meat were perfectly cooked. The French toast serving is huge and they make them very fluffy. Worth making the trip to Avondale for breakfast. The food could have stunk (it definitely did not) and I'd still come back because of the service. This place rocks!

Food so far tastes good especially their bread soft and warm I could put butter but holding back on it. It surprises me that they serve matzo ball soup because I only know two restaurants and one of them is Manny's deli which is expensive for months about soup. Dappers version for matzo ball soup is a little more celery or salty but decent it doesn't have a chicken noodle soup flavor which is not bad as for the matzo ball it's a little more smoother and not as spongy when you bite down. As for the main course I ordered liver and onions instead of bacon with rice ambience is very old school casual I've been to dappers before before because I was invited after a wake for reception and this is the first time dining alone but otherwise it looks pretty decent and the prices aren't too expensive do come here but it's best to come here before 7 pm for dinner otherwise they close the kitchen despite that their official hours is 8 pm to close. That's for their liver and onions it was savory and delicious with a lot of the sauce I ordered it with rice you could have it with bacon but that sounds gross. I finished it off with a delicious tapioca pudding with whipped cream and that was good too. For the price and the quality yeah it is worth it but you could come here before 7:00 p.m. to be a dining room then you are golden I do recommend coming here again

They also had amazing house made honey mustard and a garlic sauce for the fries. Restaurant itself is cute decorated like a diner. A lot of street parking nearby. Overall 10/10 would recommend.

So maybe they're still working through some inconsistencies. Service was excellent. Host greeted us as we arrived and we had no trouble getting a booth at 1:15 p on a Sunday. Someone brought us drinks right away even before our server got to us. And after we finished, the check was brought immediately although with no expectation that we had to leave.

The first thing I look for at a breakfast spot is flavored creamer. They delivered! The next is a variety of both savory and sweet items - another check! The reason for the above is because I like a little bit of both for my breakfast order. As such, I got the 2-2-2 Special: 2 pancakes (or waffles), 2 pieces of sausage (or bacon), and 2 eggs. My boyfriend went for the meat lovers skillet! The food came out quickly and the servers were very attentive at filling up our coffee cups, which we appreciated. It was also affordable as far as breakfast spots go, so I look forward to returning. Can't wait to become regulars here :)
