Stax Cafe - Chicago

Everything was very nice the people worked there were friendly and the owner is a very good guy .The food delicious mm yummy

Everything for breakfast was very good and service was also very good. We had all the breakfast favorites: pancakes, omelette and eggs benedict.

We were told this is the place to have breakfast in Little Italy. However the fame has gone to its head. The service was peremptory with no attempt to make human contact. My eggs were cold and undercooked though my friend’s omelet was good hence the rating is ‘average’ rather than lower. The table next to us was also less than impressed. It is a pity when a good place gets well known and forgets that its reason for existing is the customer.

This time I had to go twice so I could try the Monte Cristo waffle, as well as my usual Nutella French Toast. I'm pleased I tried it, probably wouldn't have again. There's a reason the original is so good. The Nutella FT, simply superb.

Had to come here when saw Nutella FT, and it was worth the run in horrible rain to have an early breakfast. As you'd expect the portion was decent, and messy (in a good way). Coffee was free flowing, which was appreciated as I was drenched. Fortunately my condition wasn't an issue. I'll be back, and will be torn between the FT and Monte Cristo waffle.
