Korey WitalkaSeptember 2, 2016I got the pork belly Benedict which was very good. I also wanted to try their pancakes, but didn't want a whole other entree, so I asked if I could get a short stack of their coco crunch pancakes.

- Best breakfast spot in the area. Julius Meinl coffee & espresso; check the chalkboard for lovely special dishes
David EldridgeApril 20, 2013Duck confit hash is delicious! Julius Meinl coffee gets you going in the morning as well. Bustling place at 11:00 a.m. - come earlier if you like quiet. Later for lively crowd.
Laura CochranAugust 25, 2013Fresh juice. Red velvet french toast. Chorizo wrap. Amazeballs. Split it all with a friend. Sit at the bar and chat up the bartenders about their hangovers.
Shawn CurreyAugust 9, 2014Eggs benedict using pork belly instead of Canadian bacon, and included shredded brussel sprouts and dried cranberry. Very good, but could use more hollandaise and less brussel sprout. :-)
Cheeky ChicagoSeptember 6, 2012It's National Breakfast Month!!! Head to Kanela's for a complimentary Kanela Roll...cinnamon roll with buttercream frosting, cinnamon powdered sugar, fruit and whipped cream...our mouths are watering Read more
CarolDecember 15, 2015Fantastic coffee, the goat cheese omelette was fantastic and the potatoes were nice and crispy.
GourmetLiveAugust 15, 2011The Greek accents add just enough surprise to fully wake you up; the signature loukoumáthes (fritters with lemon–honey syrup) & the pork belly benedict make for a Mykonos–on–Lake Michigan effect.
Margot SchwambMay 30, 2015Great coffee. It's definitely a place for a foodie breakfast- nice combinations of flavors etc..- and not for someone watching their waistline. Lol
Jessica VoltranJune 9, 2014I totally recommend the french toast it was a mixture of red velvet cake with cream cheese. Superb! Definitely have to go back ;)
Alex KAugust 7, 2016Everything on the breakfast menu is amazing. I had chorizo Benedict it was fantastic
CJFebruary 8, 2014Chorizo was delish, had an extremely nice and accommodating waitress! Had a wonderful weekday brunch with the sis :D

Time Out ChicagoAugust 2, 2014Perhaps your best bet at this breakfast spot is to skip breakfast altogether, and go for the lamb burger. Read more
Blair SavageJanuary 29, 2012Western omelette is a western omelette- potatos are a little too salted for my liking. But the red velvet French toast is the MOST DELICIOUS THING IN THE WORLD.
Sheena M.November 13, 2013Bottomless mimosas and french toast flight is the bomb.com.....well everything here tastes amazing!
Elizabeth RossmanMay 10, 2014What everyone says about the chorizo is true! And the bloodies are good, too.
Best Brunch place in Lakeview worth the wait. Try the Chorizo Scramble and Strawberry orange Mimosas!
Chloe CaudilloFebruary 22, 2015The spicy feta omelette is the shiz... Try adding spicy feta to other dishes as well.- Stuffed Breakfast Peppers, with egg, bacon, spinach, tomato
Gilt CitySeptember 23, 2011Try the unique Loukoumades fritter with lemon-honey syrup and walnuts. It's a great way to start your day.
Chuck WagonOctober 14, 2012Be sure to check the specials on the chalkboard! And don't be alarmed by how many people work in such a small place...
The waffle with seasonal fruit is amazing. Great food all around. Lovely fresh juices!
Spencer SApril 14, 2012A Kanela Roll is basically a warm & more delicious cinnamon roll with whipped cream on the side
Jenna WollemannFebruary 16, 2013Hands down, best brunch in Chicago - The red velvet French toast is unreal.
