We came by about 10AM on a weekday. Counter was busy, but we were seated and served promptly. Our food was near perfect and service was efficient.

In our view trips to downtown Chicago we have attempted to eat at this restaurant for breakfast. On most days, the line is out the door (and this is a good sized place). This time we went mid week, late morning, and were able to get seated right away. I will say that throughout our meal, etc., there was a... More

No way my family was waiting over an hour for breakfast. We walked north to Local Root and we ate and were out the door in the time it would have taken to eat here.

We had an 8:30 bike tour at Bobby's Bike Hike this morning and had breakfast at Yolk beforehand. It's just a block or two away. The food was good, as was the service, and the location was very convenient.

I found out about this place on a show called Chicago's Best. I love the decor and the wait staff was great! I't took me a while to decide but I finally went with the French toast medley. Imagine Lemon Poppy,Orange and cinnamon but light and fluffy and moist unbelievable!

This was a simple, cute breakfast spit. Service was great and the food was delicious. I wouldn't recommend the creeps though- texture of creeps were rubbery. However, their egg sandwich was delicious! And the cannon roll French toast was EXCEPTIONAL.

decor was exciting and we were ahead of the crowd. It was so busy we had a hard time exiting. Service was very quick and food was fresh and wonderful

The prices for breakfast are not inexpensive but there are many unique and tasty items. Wait staff is very efficient and we lovethe red velvet french toast and carrot cake pancakes at this location. Easy walk from Streeterville hotels but there is no view...just good breakfast food. Portions are large...so you can think about sharing your selections. Have never had... More

We walked a few blocks from our Magnificent Mile hotel at about 8:30 am on a beautiful Saturday morning in May and were seated immediately, although the restaurant was nearly filled. We had great service and delicious food. I ordered a California omelet with fruit and a short stack of pancakes. My husband created his own omelet and we were... More
