It just seems to me Ann Sather is losing its quality edge at this location. My salmon-Benedict was lacking in just about every way with the exception of salt. Boy was it salty! Though the one thing that remains firmly in this restaurant's favor is the portion sizes! Very generous, indeed. But volume will never compensate for quality!

It's A LOT of food, but it is SO DELICIOUS! As featured on the food network's "best thing I ever ate." The staff are super friendly too!

Went for the cinnamon rolls and was not disappointed. Not only were the cinnamon rolls the best I've had, the other breakfast items were fantastic too. You can order two side items with each breakfast entree. My wife and I shared a massive breakfast wrap with egg, cheese, salsa, and guac. Our two sides were fried potatoes and the cinnamon... More

Although I cannot speak of their lunch/dinner entrees, I can safely say that their breakfast is outstanding! We’ve been going to the Belmont location for years, and never once have we been disappointed with their food. If you’re not from Chicago, you may perceive the wait staff as rude. Personally, they’ve never offended me, but out-of-town guests have thought otherwise.... More

Ann Sather's has the BEST breakfast in Chicago! Their cinnamon rolls are delicious and their food portions are HUGE! The staff is very friendly and helpful. We eat breakfast here every time we are in Chicago.

I stopped in for breakfast on the last day of my trip to Chicago, I try to go at least once every time I'm in town. The cinnamon rolls are to die for (require extra napkins to clean your fingers). I had the Crabcake Benedict which was excellent, just the right amount of spice, not dry. At about 9:30 on... More

We went to Ann Sather's because of our daughter (who follows the Food Channel) . We were not dissapointed! The best, most creative cinnamon rolls I have ever seen or eaten in my life. Of course there was much more to the menu, all fresh and delicious.

Great food and very convenient. Attractive and clean and the fruit was very fresh. We had omelets before leaving to fly home and the meal lasted us until we got home.

My first visit to Ann Sathers was in 1979, when Ann herself walked among the tables in the brightly painted restaurant distributing her delectable cinnamon rolls. Things have changed slightly since those days, Ann passed on but the place remains faithful to her vision with home cooked Swedish food, breads, reasonably priced. But get there early they now close at... More
