Huck Finn Restaurant

Like Golden Nugget with amazing donuts. You can eat here 24/7, which is how I found out about it. About 20 years ago, while working 3-11, I met someone working the same hours and we went on a low key date after work. The bar she recommended was closing so we only got one drink and I had no clue where we could go from there. She suggested HF as an all night place, so we stopped in, had some food and coffee.I've been back many times since then because HF is the only place in Chicago that serves legit chicken fried steak like you'll get in Texas or New Mexico.Several years ago I read an article in Time Out with rankings of Chicago donut places and I was surprised to see HF won. So I tried one of their cinnamon rolls and took home one of their crazy huge donuts. Time Out was right, both were delicious.So next time you want donuts, stop in at Huck's instead of Dunkin or Stan's. You'll be pleasantly surprised.

Solid neighborhood diner. We stopped in for weekday brunch, there was no wait. We shared the Mexican omelette, Patty melt, and cinnamon roll French toast. The cinnamon roll French toast was great, our favorite dish. Nice and rich, which yummy crispy parts. The Mexican omelet was also good. The patty melt and the side of pancakes weren't great and I wouldn't order them again. We've had the donuts before and some are better than others. The carrot cake was pretty good, not too sweet. Overall, we'd definitely go back for the cinnamon French toast and omelette. I'm interested in trying a few other dishes as well.

Nice old-school diner. The food was really good. I had today's special which for Thursday was country fried steak, mashed potatoes, vegetable. It came with a soup and some rolls as well as a dessert. Excellent value for your money.

Ordered take out. The food was ok. We had a monte cristo sandwich, turkey club and cinnamon roll French toast. The monte cristo was just ok. The ham inside was great, but the sandwich itself wasn't fully built and was made basically like a grilled cheese on French toast bread. The turkey club was amazing ans the cinnamon roll French toast was good, but could have used more bites with that cinnamon sugar. The fries were ok but would have been better if the fryer grease didn't need to be changed. I'd definitely go back and try it again. I was told to go there for the donuts and did not. I wish I had more time. Next time I want to try the Alaska sized donut with my friends. Looks like a cute place. I'd definitely try dining in also. The customer service was great!

I liked the ambience of this place--classic diner vibes. My group of 4 waited for roughly 15 minutes before getting seated on a Sunday afternoon, and from then on the service was quick and friendly. I ordered the Monte Cristo sandwich, which was a warm ham and cheese sandwich on french toast bread. The bread was soggier and the sandwich was saltier than I would've liked, but otherwise it was not bad. It was quite dense--packed with meat and cheese--and I was struggling to finish by the end. Dipping it in the syrup made for a rich sweet and savory combo, though that flavor got too heavy pretty quick. The fresh side salad was a welcomed addition.Overall, I think this is a solid diner in Chicago with a friendly atmosphere that's perfect for groups and fairly priced food. Though I was not the biggest fan of the food, I also acknowledge I'm biased because I don't particularly love diner-style food. So although I wouldn't necessarily go back for just the food, I would be interested in going back someday to try their renowned donuts.--Price (relative to peers): 4.2/5Food: 3.5/5Ambience: 4.5/5Service: 4.5/5Overall Value: 4/5

Wrapped up my son's birthday weekend taking him here and it was a hit! I've been at another location but this one was amazing !!! The waitress, staff and vibe was pleasant and relaxed! Food and service was fast and customers so engaging and loving! I'll definitely be back !!!

Is this gourmet cuisine? No. Is the service fantastic? It's alright. BUT this is the perfect place to go when you're hungover and just hungry for some classic diner style food. I ordered the patty melt and my fiancé ordered the turkey club sandwich. Both of these came with a cup of some sort of soup - skip the soup if it's a weird cream based one. It's just okay and won't help your stomach if you're hungover; tide yourself over with the warm bread (fantastic) and wait for your main meal. My patty melt was as greasy as it was delicious. The fries weren't homemade, but they did the job. There are really no frills here, but for a classic diner breakfast/lunch, you can't go wrong if you don't set your hopes too high.

Oh my goodness!! What a great place to grab brunch. I came in right before the snow came in and wow. I loved our server, loved the food, loved the cute diners vibe breakfast place. I don't really understand the negative reviews from this place because of how much I enjoyed my time here. The soup was delicious, breakfast portions were HUGE, and waffle was a great dessert to have. The ONLY downside was that it took forever at the end to be noticed so we could pay the bill and when our server left, the new server never came to refill our coffee.

I loved the donuts and waffles some of the best waffles I have ever had and the doughnuts where perfect

I ordered the Turkey club, cream of chicken soup. The soup was very salty so the waitress gave me a salad. As I was eating my salad, I almost swallowed a piece of plastic. Yes, plastic was in my salad. The manager came to my table and ask if I wanted something else and I said just remove it from my bill. So he TOOK the turkey club from the table also. If I had been white, he would have accommodated me more. Yep, that's what I said. I've seen it before. I didn't put the damn plastic in my food, but he definitely failed to accommodate an unhappy customer! Shame on you huck Finn! I've been here often, but today was a very bad experience!
