Well worth the drive from suburbia (and we found free parking right around the corner). Small, noisy, but a friendly neighborhood vibe and amazing food and service. We had a reservation, but we waited about 15 minutes when the hostess approached us, apologized and offered a free appetizer or desert to make it up to us. Very nice, very unusual.... More

Visited in November with my two children after my daughter saw the wall of cereal on Diners, Drive Ins & Dives. We took a cab in from Michigan Ave area and arrived just as they opened. We were seated right away and the staff was super friendly. In addition to being able to mix various boxed cereals into one bowl... More

My wife and I went to Glenn's Diner on New Year's Day 2012. Glenn's has a cool diner vibe with a wall of cereal behind the bar and two huge charlk boards on either side of the diner with the seafood menu's on them. Plus you also get a regular diner menu! A lot of choices but we went with... More

Been there around ten times, first review. It is simply always good. Been there for dinner and brunch. The fish is fresh with a wide variety to choose from, coupled with excellent sauces. The pastas are rich and flavorful. Brunch is among the best I have ever had. The new Orleans scramble is like nothing else I have ever had.... More

This is a funky place in a cool neighborhood. The food is very good and there are plenty of options, including multiple kinds of fresh fish. More

We chose Glen's diner based on a review we saw on the "D,D & D" show. We were not disappointed. We arrived on a Wednesday night around 6pm and there was no wait. I would call ahead, however as the dining room is very small and they will put your name in prior to your arrival if it starts getting... More

We were a party of four on a busy Friday night. The food was very good. The soups were just outstanding. Glenn's new england clam chowder was superb. Although Glenn's is on the North Side, about a half hour from downtown, it's worth the trip if you are visiting Chicago. More

We had to wait till 9 p.m. to get a table for 4 on a Tuesday night. Didn't know it was all you can eat king crab night. It seemed that at least half the diners were there for that, possibly some still there from opening. We constantly saw staff bringing around more huge crab legs the 2 hours we... More
