Ismael MoustafaFebruary 26, 2016Bring cash, they don't take cards. SUPER FAST, affordable, and satisfying.
Erik RowleySeptember 29, 2015Love this little breakfast dive, a hidden gem. Order a Chorizo Loretta with a side of hash browns, freaking fantastic!
- Alexander BlumNovember 11, 2018So good! I love Sarkis. I get the turkey Loretta and it is so good. I took a friend there and they were blown away by how great it was! Yum!
Jessica WeissJune 30, 2015Great little hole in the wall place. They specialize in omelets but their pancakes are good too. Cash only though!
The bacon Loretta is my fav but for something different you MUST try the Brandons grilled cheese...amazing!!! Fried egg, 2 cheeses and bacon on French toast!!
Welcome to CollegeFebruary 20, 2011After your first Loretta & cheesey hash you'll have a hard time ordering anything else. Great spot to quickly grab a bite during your visit & the perfect cure after a late night study sesh w friends!
David SaefAugust 7, 2014Got the bacon Loretta which was delicious and then the spicy cheesy hash which was awesome! Our new breakfast dive
CarolOctober 5, 2014I would eat a Bacon Loretta every day if I could. Greasy & amazing. Perfect hangover food
Their Mexican Surprise omelette and caramel iced coffee was on point. 👌
Brook HarrisApril 12, 2012Try the The Bacon Loretta - Every time. Never been to the Chicago location, but you can never beat the original!
Great way to start your day. Even if your day starts at 3 pm.
Turkey bacon combo with cheesy hash is an orgasm in your mouth ;)- Pat DogiakosJuly 24, 2011Get the double bacon Loretta, surprise hash browns and a coke. You won't regret it!
The bacon Loretta is soooo good with their cheesy hash browns!!!!!
Yummy Breakfast food type of place. Great prices, huge portions.
Everyone gets a Loretta or a Disaster which are both awesome. Can't go wrong with anything really
will.i.am.notSeptember 12, 2014I understand the appeal for Evanston, Skokie and Wilmette peeps, but I wouldn't come from Glenview or Glencoe to eat here.
Kevin HouseFebruary 4, 2010For first timers: there is a controlled chaos about this place but don't be scared off. Order a bacon loretta, cheesey hashbrowns, and a sunkist!
Casandra S.March 24, 2010Two words: Bacon Loretta!!!! Get a double if ur a bacon lover like me, you won't be disappointed!
Disaster w/ Everything, Hash Browns, Coke to Drink.
- What happened here? This place used to be awesome, now it's a shanking mess.
Weston RiescheOctober 3, 2010This place will cure your hangover in an instant! Amazing breakfast food!
If you don't order a Loretta and cheesy hash, then you hate America
Worst service in the entire world. Had to ask 5 times to order our food and they still ignored us so we left and went across the street to the Island hot dog joint. Much better food and service.
- Squeeze in and get yourself a disaster, hash browns, a coke.
brady hustonMarch 22, 2010i really want to hate it but it's too good...and so cheap...and next door!
Brian BlaszkowskiApril 26, 2013Speak clearly. I order the animal, they gave me ham and I didn't realize until I had left. :/
