By far, the best clam chowder that I've ever had. Good vibes,great food and service.
yummy food, excellent service, friendly staff
Gave it a 2 because of the service. I went to the door for take out unaware that it was locked and you needed to be buzzed in, so I pulled on the door twice trying to figure out what was going on and when I got inside the person at the register snapped. "The door was locked." "I keep it locked in case I have to go for food ". But he was there and he was talking to a friend! So what was the problem? This was a first. Normally the service is good. But the pot roast was still good.
I wasn't hungry so I ordered the fried green tomatoes. My waiter seemed disappointed and he never came back to my table to see if everything was okay. The 3 tomatoes were good but very thinly sliced and too pricey. I talked to the manger about the waiter and he said he would talk to him. I was not satisfied with that response but I just paid and left. ( I have been a customer off and on for years)
Had usually gone to the Lucky Platter for breakfast/lunch. In the past couple months they have become a favored dinner site! The quality of the food and the personable/accommodating/knowledgeable wait-staff make for a wonderful experience! It is a casual kind of place, but the food is first-class. Glad they are still around. ?
I love this spot. My favorite dishes are the pot roast and the open faces polenta sandwich. Make sure to visit the store. A lovely selection of curated yummies, nice gift giving options. Make certain you bring home a pastry. Service is ….loving,, kind. You can taste it in the food. I eat there at least 3x a month.
Excellent pancakes, eggs and coffee. Glazed bacon is very good. Chef wait staff and front desk personal are a notch above. More like Ritz Carlton service mixed with warmth and humor.
THE Pot pie! This is the ultimate comfort food. Perfect for a rainy Chicago evening. The roasted beets are one of several creative sides to choose from. Whimsical take on a diner atmosphere. The Lucky Platter is worth going out of your way for!
Love this place and everything about it! For me and my wife being in the service industry for a long time the wait staff here is incredible. And the food is amazing on top of that
This is an essential neighborhood hang! I love the quirky art here and the spunky food. A great place to have a cup of coffee and an apricot cheese flakey. My favorite thing on the menu is the fried green tomato Benedict-- one of the best vegetarian entrees I've had. Their sweet potato fries are legend. Treat yourself to a cream soda if you want to indulge your inner child (or your actual child)!
