Sam & George's

Sam & George's is hands down one of the best diners in Chicago. Walking in, you're immediately greeted by friendly staff and swift service. Their wide variation of menu items and unique selection of flavorful skillet breakfasts ensures that each visit will bring you a new twist to timeless diner classics. The warm and cozy atmosphere of the place lends to its image as a relaxing diner to have your morning brunches at. The portions are hefty at a great price as well. Definitely worth your business!

Went to breakfast with a friend that lives in Andersonville and mentioned we should come to Sam & George's. This place is a neighborhood treasure. The waitresses are sassy and I love it. They're super friendly and they hustle. The waitresses know who the regulars are and it's so nice to see them interact with them. They really do seem to care about the regulars like to see. The Porky Pig Skillet was meaty and so good. Great place to go for a breakfast or lunch.

S&G's is your classic weekend, family brunch spot. The menu is GINORMOUS, so you'll definitely be able to find something you like. I settled on the Spartan Skillet which came with a generous amount of feta. It was good, just a little on the pricier side. If you're looking for a place to bring your family for good company and bottomless coffee, give this mom&pop spot a shot!

This is a great local breakfast spot, and the friendly staff make it feel cozy and like home! The menu includes a wide variety of classic diner options, but they're best known for their skillets. I'd definitely recommend the chicken noodle soup on a cold Chicago day too!

Absolute solid neighborhood diner all around. After a long morning exploring Chicago, I desperately needed an energy boost. A cheeseburger and chocolate malt from S&G did the trick! You get exactly what you're expecting- nothing more nothing less. Their menu is quite the read with over 300 options, but you can at least take comfort in knowing that anything you order will be satisfying. I can recommend the bacon cheeseburger or avocado cheddar burger!Around 2PM on a Saturday was the perfect time to avoid crowds. We had our pick of tables and the wait for our food wasn't bad at all.

Decade long fan of this establishment. The staff is super friendly. The AC is in the summer is perfect. The food is hearty. Lastly, they are super close to the best thrift store in Chicago...the Brown !!

Fast breakfast spot with a good size patio! It was extremely busy on a Sunday morning for breakfast. My boyfriend and I luckily were able to get a seat outside and our sweet server was prompt and quick taking our order. I ordered the panhandler with skirt steak, sautéed onion, green peppers, and lots of melted cheese. The food came out super fast and it was pretty good! They don't skimp out of the meat which I appreciate. Everything was about $50 including tip and tax.

All these years of dining at Sam and George's and I've never yelped! Well these 5 stars are long overdue.S&G is the classic Chicago diner and I'm so happy it's still around while so many have closed. S&G has been with the same family for decades, and each customer and employee is treated like family.The food here is good! We usually come for breakfast but have visited for lunch and dinner. I am usually hangry and so get one of the skillets. These are large skillets with a base of hash browns then topped with 2 eggs any style plus meats, veggies and or cheeses. I've tried almost all of them but my go to is the avocado skillet.The Greek yogurt, fruit and honey plate is yummy if you want something light.Coffee is bottomless and you can even get a cup to go!

They make you feel like family, cozy environment, good variety on the menu and I've yet to try a bad meal here. Me and my girlfriend love coming here on Sunday mornings. She loves the Greek diner feel

This is the best breakfast place in Chicago - great food, great people. Have a skillet - they're amazing! My wife loves their soup - all homemade.
