Yolk, Chicago, Illinois Restaurant Details

Food:

"Enormous portions" of "gorgeous" pancakes and "perfectly done" eggs make for a "filling breakfast" or "outstanding brunch" (they also serve lunch) at this "bright and sunny" daytime diner trio; even "efficient and friendly" service can't tame lengthy "weekend waits", but fans assure "people are waiting for a reason."

Food:

Like any place with an open kitchen it was quite loud. So if you want to have a conversation try to be seated away from the kitchen, but otherwise it's not really a problem. There was a conference in town so I think they were also a bit busier than usual.

The fries were cold and soggy by the time I got them which was disappointing but with the rush of customers I chose not to complain. The Patty melt was really good although it comes with American and I asked for Swiss, and then it came with American. But it was still good.

Food:

Atmosphere is bright and cheery. Service was great. Good was good. Pancakes were a bit denser than in accustomed to, but maybe it's a regional thing. I still vet much enjoyed my visit. Worth the mile walk it took to get here.

Food:

The atmosphere was great, very kid friendly. The food was decent but nothing special. I had the French toast & strawberry orange juice and the juice was amazing. My fiancé had the Ricky omelet and potatoes they were very under seasoned, bland. The staff was welcoming. Too pricey for the caliber of food served

Food:

Confession: The main draw was the Strawberry Orange Juice :)

We also enjoyed the Tuscan frittata (Chicken breast, sun dried tomatoes, fresh basil, and red diced potatoes all scrambled together and baked. topped with goat cheese makes for a bombastic flavor-powered skillet of goodness) and it was only 9.99!

Then there was the Hey Ricky, a spanish omelet with avocado, chorizo, jalepenos, onions, and melted jack and cheddar cheeses. Served with sour cream and side of salsa, also only 9.99!

I say: What a steal! The ambiance is sunny and bright--not one of those homey breakfast nooks, but I don't have any problem with that. Great portions and delicious food--conveniently offering several locations, too!

Food:

Great service - the waitress was very kind, responsive, and the food came out quickly. And the food! I had the Berry French Toast, and it was delicious! French toast topped with fresh blueberries, blackberries, and strawberries, as well as a just-right crunchy granola... wow, what a great combo! Rich, not too sweet, each bite was treasured and tasted consistent - no flavorless spots in their mix, something I'm always aware of when eating baked goods. Great job Yolk!
