Stop selling people frozen stuff like they ain't going to know it was frozen!!!! It wasn't even canned salmon!!! those croquettes were not worth a dime of my money and the way the young lady pre-packaged the food made it all messy and Spilled Out especially for the Grits the Grits should have been in a regular separate container which they were not... All I know is you live you learn you learn I will never order that again I've had better items off the menu such as their pancakes and French toast but yeah do not order the salmon croquettes you will be highly upset

I ordered him Sunny side up eggs with hashbrowns with onions in it and bacon. I ordered my self an onion, mushroom and cheese omelette with grits and Parker House hot links. Both breakfasts also came with toast but the cashier told me that I could make my toast French toast for a small up charge. I met a regular that had been coming there for over 15 years. He said the food was so good. He traveled all the way from 78th and stony Island just to come here for breakfast. The guy also said that he worked for the city and that was one of the spots that all the workers would come to. I asked about the other Joe's restaurant across the street. He said that it was old workers that worked for the original Joe's that opened up their own business. The food took a little bit about 20 minutes they cooked everything from scratch. I also loved that they used real mushrooms for my omelette. So many other diners use canned mushrooms. I'm glad they didn't. I also ordered an apple juice and our total was under $19. That's a steal! We couldn't wait to get home so we opened it up in the car. Nice size portions!!!! Everything was delicious I don't even eat French toast but I did taste it and it was really good! Everything was hot and delicious. I highly recommend them!

Wait a minute... shouldn't it have poppy seeds, not sesame seeds? As a Chicagoan, we notice these things! That said, it was still a really good hot dog, and I definitely enjoyed it. This place may be small, but don't let the size fool you--it's worth the stop. Yes, prices have gone up (what hasn't these days?), but the specials are still a great value. The employees were friendly, the food came out fresh, and the fries are still my favorite. Crispy, hot, and exactly what I was craving. If you're looking for a solid Chicago-style hot dog and some great fries, give this place a try. You just might find yourself coming back... just like I did!

I'd come here again. It's a hit or miss with the food it seams. So order what you know you'll like! They have members only area, it reminds me of soho but smaller. Nice and quiet overall.

I also ordered a house brew with oat milk and honey, and a slice of mushroom & scallion quiche complimented a paprika aioli on the side. The aioli is okay, but you know that I'm a "Spice" girl, so hot sauce will dress this beauty for me. The crust is really flaky and buttery. This is a true gem for all kinds of souls!

The server that morning was (I believe) Andrea, who had an amazing energy and a wonderful attitude. She was quite confident in running the whole restaurant front of the house.

They have switched to bigger buns, which are just too much bread. I thought it was lazy that they didn't even spread the sauce around at all.
