Found this place on a google search for lunch before heading back home to Kentucky. From the second we walked in, the staff were all very kind and attentive! Our server was Kristina and she was fabulous, and just the sweetest girl. We had the Saganaki for an appetizer, neither of us have ever heard of it before, and boy we were not disappointed. It was wonderful! Full of flavor and when you use the warm bread with it... out of this world! I had the Athenian omelet with Greek toast and a side of bacon. Absolutely phenomenal. Hubs had the Border Skillet with pancakes and said it was delicious too! I'm so glad we found this place! It was the perfect ending to our weekend getaway! read more

What a pleasant surprise to find such a great family restaurant in Norridge ( a bit outside Chicago)! We were looking for a gathering for an Easter dinner ( a the midpoint for some family coming from burbs) and I was blown away by everything . The food portions were massive and filling . Service was great ! They have huge banquet halls for large groups and it was busy that day!. Our menu was Easter focused but some of the same things are on the regular menu . I had a delicious ham steak. Not out here this often but would absolutely come back #familystyle #chicago read more

First time at The Blossom Cafe & what a delightful experience! Fantastic place for large family gatherings. Love that they had Easter specials and everyone could order à la carte, even including from the regular menu. The freshly baked warm bread delivered to the table had super spreadable butter. Every entrée came with a soup or salad, I agree with the recommendation to upgrade to French onion soup. The leg of lamb special was super tender. They definitely know how to do their sides well, from the fresh made mashed potatoes, to the chunky, steamed vegetables. I had enough for a full meal in leftovers afterwards! Despite being busy during the holidays, service was very attentive, and we felt very well taken care of. read more

Just came home from this restaurant. Been there many times over the years. Waiting to sit down, while the hostess kept talking to her friends at a table. Looked up at the ceiling, and it is caked in dirt.By the vents it's disgusting. Every vent in the ceiling was corroded with dirt around it, black dirt. Then, I looked up at the lamp above our table and it was caked in dust. So do all the other lamps above tables. Really gross?I can't believe the health department hasn't been in there. So whatever dust fell from that lamp ended up in food. We won't be going in there anymore. Don't you clean your restaurant? If this is what the outer cosmetics look like, I would hate to see the kitchen in anything but else behind the counter that you can't see. read more

Bustling restaurant! Busy parking lot in a large strip mall, but I found a spot and headed inside. Almost all tables and booths were occupied at 1 PM on a Wednesday afternoon. My party was seated, menus and water provided promptly. There's an extensive menu, with numerous tempting selections for breakfast, lunch and dinner. I opted for the California omelet, a delight of veggies including tomatoes, onions, mushrooms and avocado; topped with tasty cheese. Delicious! My companion had chicken piccata which came with bread and soup. Everything looked great and was reported as good. Portions were huge! Coffee was good, refilled as needed. All told, this was a good dining experience! read more

We ordered takeout and were disappointed with the experience. The butter that came with the order appeared to have mold on it, and no utensils were included. This raised concerns about food quality and attention to detail. I hope management looks into this issue. I am giving 2 stars instead of 1 only because the staff was polite. Every time I visited before, I felt comfortable there. Unfortunately, that is not enough for me to come back again. read more

Huge parking lot ... nice outside patio dining. The restaurant has an American style menu ... the basics ... meat & potatoes. The food is well prepared and the service is quick and efficient. It is a place that me and my friends patronize from time to time when I visit the Chicagoland area. When in the neighborhood, do drop in and enjoy a pleasant dinning experience. read more

Wow. Just wow. Is how I'm feeling after going here for the first time. Not only was the food absolutely phenomenal, the service was spectacular. I'm so grateful that Tiffany was our server. From the bottom of my heart, this was the best service we have ever received. This is coming from two people who work in sales! My fiance and I ordered the Lobster and Shrimp fettuccine and the Salmon, which both came with your choice of a soup or a salad. The soup was to die for especially on a rainy day. The ambiance was also great! I'd totally come back here with family and friends. As for Tiffany, she took our experience on a whole other level. Throughout our experience, she was always anticipating our needs and just so friendly. We had just gotten off of a flight and we were having a rough day but she truly made our day, because of Tiffany, we will be coming back and referring all of our friends to this phenomenal restaurant. Thank you Tiffany for making our experience incredible. read more

This place was awesome. I've been here for banquets where dishes have been preselected for me, but I got invited to the restaurant section for the first time. Amazing food, very clean and pleasant ambiance, and very friendly and attentive service from our waiter Patrick. I had a Sunday special- half slab of BBQ ribs and country fried chicken. Most restaurants have cut back on portions, but with all it came with I was not able to finish. Great business. Only thing I could add is that I wish they had a vinigarette based dressing. read more

Been there a few times and finally realized that I haven't done a review. Parmesan encrusted New York strip steak. Absolute 10/10 can't tell you how good this steak was compared to other steak places. Chama Gaucha is still my go/to but for $30 I think this was a great bargain. Most recently went and had the Philly chicken sandwich. It was decent. More like grilled chicken strips put in a bun. Tons of onions, and green peppers that were grilled to perfection. Steak fries are very good. Went last Sunday and tried the ceaser salad. Outstanding. Could've been a bit bigger considering the price $15, but a good salad. Had the French onion soup which was also very good with a ton of cheese. Overall a bit overpriced but good food in an area where good food is hard to come by. read more

It's local, consistent and I love it. Great portions, decent prices and good wait staff. Everything on the menu is great. I'm a soup girly and I only wish they would offer more kinds. I particularly LOVE the feta and spinach stuffed chicken breast, the Harvest salad with homemade creamy balsamic dressing, spinach pie and the avocado, bacon cheddar chicken melt! Of course the omelets are to die for. Ambiance great. Just a great local place to take friends and family. And they treat you like family! Once my nephew and I spent 5 HOURS there talking about life, etc. Not one second did we feel any pressure to leave, or feel uncomfortable. It's that kind of place. read more

Had my order delivered uber eats. Ordered 2 lemon piccatta and pork dish. Did not receive my sides.

The food was amazing!! Absolutely will return!! Service was outstanding too and loved the ambiance!

Great place! Menu is huge. Plenty of options for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Service is very friendly. I had the French toast collage. It's a combo with French toast, eggs, sausage, and bacon. So delicious. They do charge a 3% fee for credit card use. Parking lot is a little cramped. Other favorites from my group include burgers, omelets, soup, and French dip. read more

My pancakes had something on top of them that look like mold. Not sure what it was but it made me loose my appetite. Not to mention the hash browns weren't throughly cooked. The server was cool but would never eat here again. I basically paid to time a few bites of a disappointing breakfast that I had to go to McDonald's right after. read more

If I can give a 0 star rating I would my boyfriend and his family all went to have a wonderful brunch all of them have got there food but my bf's mom first food came out wrong it not what she ordered so they bro it back to the kitchen and she waited for an whole hour to get her food so when they ask the server where is her food the server call for the manager and said there a lot of people waiting to eat and they all got mad and the server brought out her food and she was so mad she put the food away and left restaurant unsatisfied!!! I had the same experience closely went with my bf family last year and they got my order wrong I ask them dose it has cheese in it, I'm lactose intolerant they made my food with a lot of cheese in it. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS RESTAURANT to anyone who wants to eat their server and the management are so bad never going back there again!!!!!!!!!!!! read more

Stopped for a meal before our flight. Wasn't sure if I was in the mood for breakfast or regular food so the diner atmosphere was great. They're specials of the day and I went for one. The prime ribs sliders were okay. A little fatty so hard to eat like a sandwich. Steak fries are always a hit with me. Pea soup with ham and the buttery garlic croutons-should've just gotten a bowl vs a cup of that! He got the American burger. Bacon was thick and porky and the burger was huge so no complaints from him. Also came with steak fries. Staff was quick and friendly. Food came out fast and hot. Bathrooms were clean. read more

My friend heard that this place has good food, so we decided to try it. Parking near the restaurant is limited. The restaurant is in a strip mall so there is other areas to park but a little ways from the door. When we entered, it was dim not sure if it was supposed to be that way or they did it for lunch. You would think that dimming lights would only be around dinner time, but it was when we entered. There were people waiting for tables, so the entrance was crowded. Good thing we made reservations as we were seated right away. My friend and I were catching up so the waitress had to come by a couple times to check on us to see if we were ready. She didn't rush us, but we felt bad that we were talking more than reviewing the menu. Once our order was placed, we received some warm bread and melted butter. When our food came, it looked delicious. My friend ordered a club sandwich with steak fries and the sandwich looked good. I ordered the Irish Benny with crispy hashbrowns as I requested. I thought the eggs Benedict with the hashbrowns would make it salty, but it wasn't. Overall, we were happy with the service and the food. We didn't think to ask about the lights, but wish it was just a little brighter. Will come back when in the area but make sure to have reservations. read more

The restaurant is very dark. The weight staff was not very attentive. The food was not worth the price. Let me tell you. I ordered a turkey club. The tomatoes were old and mushy and had barely any bacon on it. My friend had the Mediterranean rep and she said it was tasteless. The best part of the whole meal was the soup definitely will not be going back there. read more

Our group of 15 (which includes several couples) dines out at least twice a month. Before making a reservation, the first thing we do is ask the restaurant if they will give us separate checks. We had dined at Blossom Café previously and separate checks were never an issue here. Most recently, when we called to confirm our reservation, we were told, "No problem, just inform your server when you arrive." Upon arrival, we told Assistant Manager "K" that we had a reservation. Eying our group, she scowled and gestured at the very busy dining room. Then, looking in her black book, she found our reservation but for unknown reasons it was lined out. The restaurant was not at all prepared to handle us and we had to wait in the crowded entrance for several minutes while staff rearranged tables. Once seated, we reminded our server about the separate checks. He responded, "No, we can't do separate checks! Only one check per table!" We persisted and he trotted off, returning with a defiant Assistant Manager "K." For several very uncomfortable moments, she made a scene shaking her head and stubbornly repeating, "No, we CANNOT do separate checks!" (had all of us gotten up and walked out without ordering, the Café would have been out $400; so much for her ignorance). We persisted and asked to speak with the owner. But the owner was not present. Finally "K" summoned a manager, who grudgingly said, "We'll see what we can do." A botched reservation is one thing, but reneging on agreed-to separate checks is unacceptable. The food and service were really very good (our server "M" was wonderful) ... and ironically the restaurant handled our separate checks efficiently and without error! In the absence of an apology (oh, but "K," bless her generous heart, comped ONE cup of coffee for ONE vocal individual), our group will not be returning to Blossom Café. And, in the absence of an apology, we will inform others how rudely we were treated. read more

Stopped in today for dinner I had filet mignon sliders appetizer and my companion had shrimp dejonghe The meal was very good Our server was good and we ate outside The reason I'm not giving it a 5 star is because they charge a 3% service charge if you don't pay cash and use your credit card. Sorry but it's no longer Covid and this charge started during Covid , time to drop the service fee It isn't much and I believe in taking care of your server but there might be people who will tip less because of this fee and the servers who work hard shouldn't be punished. So Blossom , get rid of the fee read more

As I wrap up the work part of my working vacation, I've been staying in the hotel to focus on the business-sy reasons that I'm in Chicago, with food being either hotel dining or lunch set up by the organizers. I wanted to order something different and on the healthy side today and thus ordered delivery from Blossom. My food came within a good timeframe and was pretty tasty. I enjoyed their Grecian Chicken, a rotisserie-style half chicken but with an olive oil marinade and baked-in spices with a side of steamed carrots and a baked potato. The chicken breast was pretty sizeable & with yummy flavor, and the carrot slices had a good crisp from being fresh steamed. The baked potato was just served with sour cream; I'm not sure if it was a limit from the delivery app but there was no butter or bacon to "load" it. My side chicken soup - chicken bullion and loaded with vegetables and elbow pasta - was yummy as well! All in all, a great spot for tasty bites if you're in the O'Hare area. read more

I have not been here in quite a while. It just seems that I like other places better. Breakfast was my journey today. I have to say it was kind of lackluster. I ordered pancakes and told them to hold the confectioners sugar on it. Needless to say, I got the pancakes with the confectioners sugar. I pointed it out and they brought me new ones. They had forgotten though to include the whipped cream that came with it. So they did bring me whipped cream. When it comes to maple syrup, they give you such a small amount. Since I last had breakfast there prices had gone up. I usually would get by with $20 or less and this time it was more than that. It is just too darn dark in there. Just sayin'. read more

I'm not a complainer but I ordered their jumbo fried ship Platter and the shrimp was so deep fried , the shrimp was hard and a very dark color. I tried eating it because I was so hungry. I let the waiter know & he said I can only offer you a desert. The carrot cake was not good either it didn't taste fresh I couldn't eat it. The service and the ambiance were good, but not the food my friend had their chicken catatory and said it was too salty. I am disappointed because I've had some good food here but not on this visit. read more

Ambiance and service is good. Food, on the other hand is not quality. Our order today. Full slab, two soups. Let m le tell you the soup had hardly any rice or chicken in it. The carrots were still a bit hard, the broccoli no flavor. The ribs tasted like a pre packed rib. The fries had a small hair, they took back and made a fresh batch but really! They offered us dessert to make up for the hair but really! We had children but why offer if you already failed why prolong our visit read more

outstanding service this place did not disappoint very family friendly resturant decent portions you can save half a wrap to eat for later or the next day. the hot complimentary bread was delicious I couldn't stop eating it along with the delicious creamy chicken soup. the chicken wrap was really good I liked how well made it was and warm along with the side of delicious homemade ranch.

Recently went to Blossom Cafe for the first time with my extended family, aunts, uncles, cousins, etc., (party of ~10) and had Gina as a server, and she was absolutely phenomenal. She was calm, attentive, and patient. She got our overly complicated order (with many dietary restrictions) correct, to us in a timely fashion, and made our visit well worth it. In addition, the food was so delicious, and between Gina's grace and kindness, and the delicious food, I would definitely recommend. If you go, for sure request Gina as your server! read more

I ordered the breakfast with the biscuits and sausage gravy--biscuits were not freshly baked--they buy them and instead of warm them by baking they cut them in half and put them on the grill--so they fall apart into crumbs if you try to butter them. Their sausage gravy is basically flour paste-- you would need a magnifying glass to find any morsels of sausage in it-- I would also say that waitperson had a problem understanding basic requests-- like --on the side. The eggs were fine. The fruit that was supposed to come with the meal was a little condiment cup with a grape and a small piece of melon--not at all appetizing. My advice--do better--serve fresh food--if you can't afford to put sausage in the gravy--take it off the menu--trust me, people would not miss a badly prepared dish! read more

wow the biggest omelets I have ever seen, the size of a football! I got the skillet (with 4 eggs) and rye bread toast that was the size of a slipper! it was 67$ for three of us for breakfast with coffee. it was very good but too much food, would rather pay less and not leave food on my plate.

We stopped in on a Sunday morning for breakfast. We did not have to wait even though the restaurant was crowded. When we left around 11:15 there were several parties waiting for tables. There are booth and table options. Their menu has a lots of offerings. We had the frittata, scrambler and pancakes . The portions were large and included hash browns, toast or pancakes. The egg dishes were fluffy and moist. My only complaint was we each ordered coffee and getting refills was a challenge. Service was ok, but nothing outstanding and the restaurant is very loud and it can be hard to hear one another . read more

We arrived about 11am on a Saturday. The place was packed including the waiting area. Luckily we had a reservation and waited just 10 minutes or so before we were seated. The service was pretty speedy and no issues with drink refills. But our waitress didn't seem very familiar with the menu. Both French toast orders were incorrect. We ordered banana nut French toast ($9.89) and the Cafe Blossom French toast ($9.69) which includes banana nut, challah, and brioche breads. Both came out with just one type of regular bread. The order of banana nut had bananas on top but again the bread was not banana nut. She informed us after bringing it out that they were out of banana nut bread. So of course the Cafe Blossom sampler, which was listed as a menu favorite, did not come out with banana nut bread and had no fruit at all on top. Again the bread on both orders seemed to be regular, definitely not banana nut or challah possibly brioche. We sent the CB sampler back and it came out again with the same singltype of bread but this time it had three types of fruit on top and whipped cream on the side...better but still not as advertised. French toast, classic buttermilk pancakes (4) - $7.19, Belgium waffle - $7.29 are all served with sides of whipped butter and warm syrup. Sides are sold separately; jumbo sausage links or patties (3) - $4.59, turkey sausage patties - $5.19, thick cut bacon (3) - $5.29, two eggs - $3.69. One in our group ordered lunch and had the half rotisserie chicken with soup and two sides - $12.99. The chicken was excellent, moist and perfectly seasoned. Everything from the breakfast side tasted good. The pork sausage was not greasy which can sometimes be the case. Nice place to get breakfast or lunch. read more
