Solstice - Western Springs

The food is good but they are so skimpy. I Ordered 2 buffalo chicken sandwiches carry out, and each sandwich had a sliver of chicken. If I combined the two pieces from each sandwich into one, it still wouldn't be a proper sandwich. I also got like 7 frys. It really felt like they didnt care.

The first time I ordered from Solstice was a disaster. The food was cold, biscuit was hard and potatoes might've been recooked about 3x since they were crusty and oily. Nevertheless, I decided to give this restaurant another try as mistakes happen. For $9, I ordered a breakfast burrito and potatoes. My burrito was 3/4ths tortilla and 1/4 scrambled egg with sausage. It was like eating warm bread with a touch of egg. The potatoes were better this time, but the portion was tiny. Will not be ordering from here again!

Still a great brunch restaurant, but sadly they will close at the end of this month (September 2019). Luckily, they will be opening a new full restaurant in Lagrange at the end of the year, which will also include a microbrewery on site.

Breakfast of eggs, sausage, potatoes and toast were good and fresh. Although portions are modest, I enjoyed the atmosphere and excellent cup of coffee. Service was abrupt and arguably slow as we and one other couple were the only customers in the restaurant. The 3% add on for using a credit card was a surprise and for that reason alone, regardless of the quality of food, I will eat at other good restaurants nearby.

Great service and tasty food. Enjoyed talking to the owner and chef.
