Wow, what an incredible breakfast at Egg'lectic! I usually approach breakfast spots with caution, especially when reviewers claim you haven't truly experienced an omelette until you've tried theirs or say they would travel hundreds of miles just for breakfast. But I can confidently say that the reviews for Egg'lectic are absolutely accurate—if anything, they’re an understatement! The omelette I had, the Hey Ricky, was the best I've ever tasted; nothing else even comes close, with second place far behind. The salsa was fantastic too! In my opinion, Egg'lectic’s menu offers the best breakfast I've ever had, anywhere. The service was excellent as well!
Portillo's is one of several dining establishments located at the intersection of W. Ontario and N. Clark in the heart of Chicago. Situated just across the street from the iconic 50-year-old McDonald's and Hard Rock Cafe, Portillo's offers a diverse menu, ample seating, and quick service. I opted for a loaded Jumbo dog, and it met my expectations—a fast and satisfying meal. The restaurant features some neat memorabilia from the Prohibition era and a unique outdoor area, though it's styled in a faux decor. It's a great spot for tourists, conveniently located along the hop-on hop-off bus route.
Egg’lectic is a fantastic spot to enjoy a meal! I visited on a Sunday morning, and it was pleasantly uncrowded with no wait time. The menu offered delicious options. I requested extra whipped cream for my waffle, and they generously brought me almost a soup cup full! The sausage patties and eggs were tasty, and the fruit was fresh, not slimy. Christian, our server, was undoubtedly the highlight—attentive without being overbearing, genuinely ensuring we had everything we needed and were satisfied. Thanks to him, this experience earns a full five stars.
My friend and I were taken aback when our orders arrived; they were nothing like what we had requested. I ordered the cinnamon roll French toast, which was not only small but also burnt, while my friend got a fruit cup that contained old, stale fruit on a plate. The presentation of the food was comically poor, and yet they had the nerve to charge high prices for it. I've attached pictures of the awful food for reference! I highly recommend avoiding this place—save both your money and your time.

This restaurant is truly a gem! I've visited several times, and both the food and service have consistently impressed me. Their homemade cinnamon rolls are simply amazing—truly the best I’ve ever tasted! The wraps and omelets are fantastic too. You really can’t go wrong here. The cozy country atmosphere, combined with outstanding food at an even better price, makes it a must-visit!
This is a fantastic breakfast spot. Everything I've tried here has been excellent. The omelets, skillets, Benedicts, and pancakes were all outstanding. The waitstaff was attentive, and our food arrived swiftly from the kitchen—usually within 5 to 10 minutes of ordering. I highly recommend this place to anyone in Schaumburg and the surrounding areas.
Although our last three or four visits to Egg’lectic haven’t been busy, I’m certain it’s not because of the food quality! The menu is wonderfully diverse with a vast selection. It may not have the elegance of Walker Bros, but it offers a charming and cozy atmosphere.
The food is delicious, the atmosphere is clean, and the prices are reasonable for the generous portions you receive.
