ShannonFebruary 16, 2014This place seems to always be busy, but for good reason. It's absolutely delicious! I recommend the pancho villa omelette. Great flavors!
LaMecia ButlerDecember 15, 2013I recommend the CJ plate for chicken and waffles. Good amount of food at a reasonable price. Their egg whites aren't shabby either. Milkshakes were a hit with other diners even in 30 degree weather!
PoeJune 4, 2014One of my cities best all night spots. You like Chicken and Waffles try the #PhatBoy (5tenders 1belgian waffle 2 eggs & 3turkey sausage patties) I prefere turkey bacon
Man. They're friendly, open 24/7, and certainly have delicious, artery-bursting diner-food … but the music is motherfucking atrocious. ಠ_ಠ
Lenora CravensMay 8, 2022I personally love the country fried steak and potatoes. It’s so good. But you really couldn’t go wrong with anything you pick on the menu.
Time Out ChicagoAugust 2, 2014The waitress calls you doll, hun or honey. You’ll let her call you whatever she wants if it means getting some of the—hands down—best diner food in town Read more
Alan SamlowJanuary 3, 2015The hamburgers definitely are not.😒 They have a weight put on & come out like shoeleather .1/2 lb. The thickness of a sole. Should have asked for gravy . Pie excellent!
Kevin KellyDecember 7, 2014Their chicken and waffles are great, but they also have great skillets and comfort food. I love their BLT Club.
Stacy TaylorApril 21, 2018Great service, great food. The pics in the menu are not appealing but the food is delicious and reasonably priced.
Heather FolsomMarch 5, 2014The hash browns, sausage gravy, & the cream of corn soup were all great. There's a decent amount of metered parking north on canal.
Willo MJanuary 5, 2020Meatloaf was tasty and moist. Corn seemed frozen not cob. Mashed pot were fresh. My girl had the Grecian Tilapia..said it was ok. Hash browns nothing spectacular. Cool vibe. Good service
Dustin HaleyJune 13, 2015Great diner that's open 24/7 and serves up some good breakfast. I'm fond of the French toast!
Marcia WilliamsMay 23, 2013This is the place to come for a well done, crispy fried, yolk broken egg. Perfectly cooked and delicious.
Mimi ChanelApril 25, 2013This is the only place I will eat pancakes. Love breakfast here and the Chicken Noodle soup is right on !
Walt WalkerMay 21, 2013Late night diner. The chicken & waffles with eggs and has browns on the side get the job done
Adam WebbDecember 11, 2012Classic downtown diner food. They never close. Get the Midnight Train, the Patty Melt, or the American Chilaquiles.- tomi olotuNovember 18, 2012the meat lovers omelette is soooo good!!! the French toast is great and the Belgium waffle is yummy
- Brian SmithNovember 10, 2012Great food and lots of it. White Palace Grill is one of my favorite Chicago restaurants.
Jack VanOverloopOctober 31, 2018Excellent greasy spoon for cheap drunchies or the hangover that follows

Great family outing for diner food. Always super nice to kids!
Faithe MasonOctober 12, 2015Breakfast all day. Even after an all nighter. This place always brings me back to life.
AlexDecember 27, 2011Soups are housemade every day, soup du Jour is fairly consistent except during lent. Killer cream-o-spud on mondays
Always get the fruit punch. This place has the best French Toast anywhere.
If you come in after one, sit at one of Teresa's tables, she's awesome, love her!

Jake SmithSeptember 3, 2012In the words of Guy Fieri, the chicken and waffles are "out of bounds" delicious.
Bianca HannahSeptember 21, 2013The Philly steak sandwich wasn't full of flavor like I hoped, I'm gonna try something different next time
Roosevelt CollectionNovember 17, 201124 hour/day breakfast and tons of great comfort food at very reasonable prices!
Ashleigh ArsenicApril 26, 2013The salad I got was alright but the veggies were clearly out of a can and the country fried chicken was horrible. there was more gravy then chicken on my plate . Not recommending this place.

"The parking is convenient but can be congested particularly on the weekends and especially around the holidays. Staff is friendly and inventory is robust."
Kevin Mac - 5.8
"The plus size department here is wacksauce. Two paltry, picked through racks of nothing cute. But the home department is pretty good!"
