    Mediterranean omelet
    Melli Y.

    We got omelets and thet were both delicious. $35 for 2 omelets that came with a large amount of hashbrowns and 2 pancakes or toast! Plus a strawberry smoothie which was interesting, it tasted like strawberry jelly. The food came out within 5 minutes and they were huge. Well cooked! Definitely going back.

    Lalo's Skillet
    Michelle M.

    We went after the Sunday morning rush and had quick service. We got the Lalo's skillet and the Irishman's skillet. Both skillets lacked flavor.

    This is a great breakfast / brunch spot with delicious, homemade recipes and fresh ingredients. The decaf coffee was particularly flavorful and service was attentive. We didn't feel rushed even though we spent 90 mins talking. The portions are hearty and it's likely you will go home with at least one to-go container. My only issue is that it's not open for dinner since I love breakfast food at night!

    Tenderloin Benedict
    Maria T.

    My original review was a few years ago so I'm providing an update. Still a great place for breakfast with great food, great service, and a large array of menu options. Still love their Benedicts! Yesterday I tried their lemon blueberry French toast.... Delicious! A few changes I have to mention... They no longer serve the complimentary donut holes or the jelly, nor do they provide a carafe of cold water to start. I miss these touches but with the economy as it is... It's understandable. Would recommend.

    The restaurant was diner like with a bar and booths. There was plenty of food to choose from, especially if you like or dislike breakfast food. The server was very pleasant and the food came out of the kitchen in good time. I got the blueberry pancakes which were delicious while the others in my party also got biscuits and gravy as well as the spinach and cheese omelet. We went mid morning where there weren't too many people eating there at the time. Good place to stop by and try!

    Portabella Focaccia Sandwich
    Anita P.

    I came here on a Sunday morning and was pleased with the service and food! My friend and I got seated within 10 mins and decided to split a savory and sweet option. The portobello mushroom focaccia was cooked very well and the portobello itself was very tender and paired well with the peppers and balsamic vinaigrette inside. My favorite item personally is the nutty Nutella waffle, but you should def come in with a sweet tooth if you plan on ordering it:)

    Traditional Benedict
    Stephanie C.

    This was just ok. The waitress barely checked on us and when she did, she didn't even make eye contact. It also took them awhile to even come to our table to get our drink or food order. They weren't very busy, either. The food was alright, just kinda typical.

    Crispy chicken Benedict

    Decent brunch. I got the crispy chicken benedict. We went on a Sunday morning and were sat immediately.

It's tiny inside and feels well worn (in a good way), but there are a few tables outside. We went at an off time (or so we thought), but eventually all four tables and all bar seating were taken up. The gentleman serving us seemed to be the only one there, but he was friendly. We ordered a taktouka sampler, mixed grill platter, and lamb shank tagine. If you go to a Moroccan restaurant, you've got to get tagine. It took a little while for the food to come out, but overall it was excellent. The taktouka sampler was full of veggies. It was tasty, but I wish the carrots were cooked more to soften them. The mixed grill platter had chicken and beef kabobs, as well as something like a kefta (ground meat) kabob. The meats and rice were good, although the beef and chicken could have been more tender and juicy. The white sauce was a nice accompaniment. The lamb shank was excellent; nice tender meat, tasty rice, and delicious supplemental flavors from the figs and apricots. Overall, a very nice lunch.

The hostess looked right at me and decided not to speak with me. I almost left but didn't feel like trying to find a new spot to eat. Then we get seated at a small WOBBLY UNSTABLE table that we have to put a napkin under ourselves to stop from wobbling. We then get served the food meant for the table next to us! It sat on our table for at least 3-4 minutes while we attempted to wave a waiter down to let them know. Then they had the AUDACITY to give the plates that were in front of us for minutes to the couple next to us whom the dishes we meant for!? INSANE!! Not a sorry or any kind of compensation. That's a health code violation and they are lucky that couple next to us didn't put up a fight. Their meal should have been free or Just remake the dish for the poor folks?? You made a mistake, admit to it and make it right!! Besides the wild health code violation, the vibes are pretentious and elitist. Not worth your money. Plenty of better options in the area. Super disappointed! Getting too big for your britches Fox Tail. We loved this place years ago but they have lost their touch.

This is a nice, small Middle Eastern market compared to Souq Fresh Market in Lombard. Souq is very big. This market has a lot of unique Middle Eastern snacks that I've never seen before along with a kitchen that you can order lunch and dinner from. Lunch is served 10 am - 2 pm. I believe dinner is served from 2 pm to 9 pm. Don't quote me on the end dinner times. They have 3 tables that you can eat at. I came after 10:20 am and I ordered the chicken kufta lunch special, two different kinds of samosa, and kebabs. Prices were cheap, I got all of this for $25. They also have an area where you can get some fresh meat and deli items. Staff was friendly. Overall 4 out of 5. If they fixed the kebabs, it would easily be a 5. -chicken kufta lunch special 5 - he made this fresh. You get one pita bread with it. Meat was soft and tender. The rice and salad were very tasty.

    Greetings! Just a…read morefollow up review, more like a super check-in... Background: It was our son's birthday, MOST of the time, birthday dinners are home-cooked family affairs...his choice this year: Apolis run! We live forty minutes away, and it's worth the ride every time. Our party of seven lined up, placed our orders, and the kitchen got to work. Entrees and sides prepared perfectly, right down to sauce on the side for the seventh entree. It was a pleasure to meet the owner, Mike G. I had the opportunity to thank him for years of great eating. Furthermore, I noticed the sign of a great leader: When it got busy, he jumped in and helped his amazing staff. He leads by example, and it shows. We all had various forms of rice bowls and pitas. Of special note this visit: The sides! The pork and chicken souvlaki are simply divine. The oven roasted Greek potatoes seems like they're right out of your favorite rah-ra's oven. Full of flavor, and mind-blowing. The rice pudding and baklava, as my SIL said, ..."took a 98 point visit and made it a 100 point visit...". My thanks to Mike G. and the amazing staff for a wonderful meal. It was greater than great, and for a family birthday meal, I wouldn't want anything less. Until next time...tk
