Lou Mitchell's - Chicago

What a comfortable, super great place for breakfast or brunch. Service is outstanding, food amazing. The inside is bustling with Chicago live. The staff is excellent just ???? customer attention. Coffee fill ups no need to ask or you need a fresh squeezedorange juice. Yeah this is your kinda place a must visit. Enjoy ??????????????????????

Decided to check out a little food history while in Chicago. Overall a disappointment but there were some bright spots. Atmosphere was great...lots of energy and for a birthday, the entire diner sang. It was pretty heartwarming. People werenice and it really felt homey without feeling cheap. Food was ok at best. For a place that prides itself on its baking, theFrench toast looked great but was super dry. And because the bread was so thick, you couldn't get pat it. Definately need tosoak in a batter or liquid before cooking. Pumpkin pancakes served with a ton of whipped cream. Whole thing tasted like a bakedpumpkin pie. Issue was the pancakes were nearly raw in the middle. Bacon we asked for never arrived but at least it wasn't onthe check.

Wanted a taste of a proper old school American diner and got exactly that here. The food was excellent and the coffee was really good. I tried the 2 egg with chicken sausage and it was really good, portions are huge too. The staff were all really nice andit was a great way to start a Sunday

A wonderful classic diner in the heart of downtown! Also, a great place to start your journey down route 66! Even when the line is long, it downstairs take much time to get through it and get seated. They're impetus are huge. There coffee is great. And thestaff is the BEST! I WOULD DEFINITELY GO BACK!

What terrific place to grab a bite in a historic route 66 dinner. After we were seated they brought homemade donut holes orange slices then took our order. I ordered the special, French Toast with strawberries, banana toasted coconut, so good. We also got the Texas hash eggs (note 4 eggs) potatoes with homemade cinnamon bread. Again yummy. They were slammed theservice was great if I lived here I would be a regular.
