    Southern Lovin
    Mark Y.

    This is basically a coffee shop with fancy donuts that also serves burgers and has a nice breakfast menu. Prices are good, everything was clean, and the staff was friendly. I ordered the Southern Lovin biscuit sandwich. I got a big fluffy biscuit, a huge piece of chicken, and delicious bacon perfectly crisped. One of the best biscuit sandwiches I've had outside of Nashville. Yum!

    These were the five dollar hand cut fries

    I visited Joe Donut - Mt Prospect on a Saturday afternoon around 12 p.m. The place wasn't busy and there were many people working behind the counter, so it definitely had an energetic vibe. That said, the experience felt a little disorganized. The girl who rang me up seemed to be new. Everyone has to start somewhere, of course, but there was an overbearing manager (perhaps the owner) hovering nearby who didn't appear to be offering much actual guidance or training. The dynamic felt more tense than supportive, which was noticeable as a customer. As for the food, prices seemed a bit high for what you receive. The value didn't quite match the portion size. We ordered the Double Royal with Cheese, and it was about the size of a McDonald's double cheeseburger. It tasted fine, but for the price point $10, I expected something more substantial. We also ordered the $5 "hand-cut" fries, which were clearly pre-cut and frozen. That was disappointing, especially given the premium price point and the expectation set by the description. Overall, not a terrible stop, but between the pricing, portion size, and the uncomfortable front-counter dynamic, it didn't quite live up to expectations. We did not try the donuts, but they also appeared to be on the higher end when you compare other local options.

    Small sampling of donuts! Also wasn't the biggest fan of their maple bacon. They need to cook the bacon more. But the rest are good

    So I've never actually been inside and I've only brought them home but, they are pretty good but I have a couple gripes with them. I understand that creative license is a big thing in food. But when there is a classic item that people are expecting to be a certain way and you mess with that, it doesn't go over well. At least not for me. Specifically I'm talking about their very loose interpretation of a Boston cream donut. I also love a good maple bacon donut but , they definitely need to cook the bacon for those donuts more. Both of these are in my pictures, so you can see what I'm talking about. Overall the variety and flavor of the donuts is pretty great, but I've also dealt with a lot of attitude from the staff. So I didn't appreciate that. As I said I haven't been in the actual location myself but to speak to the Ambiance at least the parking lot and that situation is not the greatest. It does look very clean from what I've seen, but there are other places I would go before here. That said if you're close by and craving a donut definitely worth a stop in. I do still want to visit one day and get something other than Donuts. But for now this is where I stand. Don't take my word for it though give them a try if you're in the area!

    Outstanding donut shop with great coffee and service. $14 for half dozen. The staff really take care of customers. Good location. Most highly recommended!

    Pistachio and chocolate covered old fashion, maple bacon,  red velvet, sprinklers

    In an area that is saturated with Dunkin' Donuts, it was nice to find something different. In a sit down, modern location, Joe donut is offering up some of the more progressive varieties in the area. Grabbed a half dozen including a maple bacon, red velvet, pistachio old fashioned, chocolate covered old fashioned, and sprinkles for the kids represents the most expensive donuts I've ever purchased coming in at $14. Looks like they also serve some traditional egg sandwiches and espresso drinks. First samples of the donut collection showed signs that some were not fresh baked that morning with the glaze crumbling off in chunks on the first bite and the cream cheese topping on the red velvet being oxidized. Even though they have some of the more unique donut offerings, I prefer mine to be fresh baked.

    Great donuts and coffee! Polite service :) I have to make this 85 characters to post lol

    Decided to pop in here one afternoon as I've passed this place quite a few times. I looked at the menu before going in but they were already sold out of some of their donuts so I went with what they had. The good? The berry flavored donuts were my favorite. Typically I like chocolate flavored but I was a bit let down with the Oreo, chocolate frosted old fashioned, and s'mores donuts. I think next time I would want to check out their food menu versus donuts. Not sure if I'd be up to paying $12 + tax for the donuts again.

    Scramble with chicken sausage and avocado. The potatoes are Amazing!!!

    We were in the area and someone recommended this restaurant for breakfast. I love the high ceilings…read moreand plenty of windows with natural lighting. The restaurant is decorated very nicely, they put a lot of thought in colors and decor. Our waitress was very sweet and knowledgeable, I appreciated her input. I ordered coffee and my cup was never left empty. They have a really sweet man who comes around and tops off your coffee cups. They have specials and a kids menu too. The bathroom latches are way too high for a child to lock the door, but they do have a fold down changing table in the woman's restroom. (Not in the stall) They do have high chairs for toddlers. I actually need a chair to rest my leg on because I cannot bend my right knee. Our waitress was very nice about it... however a man came up to me and told me it was a fire hazard to have a chair in the aisle... so what about the kids high chairs? The chair was completely pushed under the table... so I had no choice but to put my foot up on the other side of the booth (which I was avoiding). Also the booth cushion is not attached so when you lean on it it comes up... making it very hard for a handicapped person like me to get in and out of a booth. other than that our experience was enjoyable. My husband ordered the corned beef hash breakfast. It came with Corned beef Hash, 2 eggs (he ordered his scrambled) diced potatoes or hashed browns (he picked diced potatoes) and toast or pancakes. That is a lot of food for him, so I am going to eat his pancakes. I also ordered two eggs over easy off the sides menu. The portion sizes are large. My husband's scrambled eggs looked more like 3 eggs and not two. The food was nice and hot and tasty. Highly recommended dining here if you're in the area. Will be back.

    Really good breakfast spot! I had the two cheese omelet and it was very good. Sourdough toast…read morewasn't really sourdough but it wasn't bad. Our server (as well as everyone else on staff) was incredibly attentive with coffee refills. I don't think I ever got below half empty before a refill was offered. Overall, if I'm in the area again, I would come back here.

    It was a Sunday so we anticipated a bit of a wait and fortunately put our name on the waitlist…read moreprior to heading that way. Upon arriving we were told what our additional wait would be and it was within the parameters of what was communicated when we initially joined the waitlist. We were waited on promptly and put in our orders. I am a country fried steak fan and ordered that with hash browns and eggs over easy. There were ample hash browns cooked very nicely and the country fried steak was tender and well seasoned. It had a bit of a black pepper flavor. I also paid a bit extra for specialty pancakes because I am a huge fan of the red velvet pancakes. They are sweet and decadent but I can never pass up the opportunity. My daughter ordered the Açaí bowl which was a large portion and had ample ingredients with fruit and granola. It was nicely frozen and fresh. It was more than enough to fill her. They offer a nice selection of beverages and I took advantage of the Bloody Mary that was flavorful and tasty. The ambience is welcoming and vibrant and the staff collaborates nicely to make sure your needs are met. Solid and attentive service but no intrusive.

    We saw the Scratchboard Kitchen on tiktok and wanted to see what all the hype was about. How did it…read moreturn out, let's find out: Ambiance The Sratchboard kitchen has a bright and welcoming decor. The lighten in the place was warm. And the music seemed similar to a club beat but not obnoxiously loud. Service The service was great. Our server gave us some recommendations and the staff seemed pretty nice. The food itself did not take too long to come out. Also, when there was a mistake with one of the orders, it was taken care of without any issues. Food Fried potatoes This was a recommended side. The potatoes themselves were crispy with a fluffy middle. It came with a spicy mayo type of dipping sauce which tasted good other than the fact that dipping the potatoes in it did not really get that much sauce on them. I would recommend this side dish. French onion grilled cheese The French onion grilled cheese is a very tasty dish. It has the sweetness of the caramelized onion and nice cheese pull. It is a rich dish so eating cause food fatigue. We got it with bacon. It was good but not really necessary. Crispy chicken sandwich This is the chicken sandwich seen on tiktok. The cutlet is thick and it was fried with a light coating. The chicken sandwich was juicy. I think mine might have needed a little more seasoning (my own preference). Overall The scratchboard kitchen is a nice place to go and have a bite to eat. It has a nice array of food and drink options. I would recommend at least trying the food and enjoying the ambiance and service.
