Our first visit here, but definitely not our last. Excellent food- we had stuffed potato pancakes and a veggie wrap. Very reasonable prices, delightful outdoor patio seating. Great server! Who could ask for more?

I'm not one to give a bad review, but this place really let me down, the reviews were great but unfortunately that was not my experience. Kids and I were gonna go to syrup (we should've) but wanted to try this local spot, because why not, support local places with mind you, great reviews. Let's start with the place , it's cute , semi clean & packed. The service was mediocre we were missing silverware, our waitress wasn't attentive at all my son ended up using a spoon to eat his pancakes . I asked for silverware and napkins and nothing ... more coffee just got refilled once. The food looked amazing but everything was so bland :( , the fried steak was bland and had a greasy after taste , the gravy was mediocre, I'm from Texas so I know a good chicken fried steak and this was no bueno! My eggs were way to runny they grossed me out.. over medium shouldn't be like that at all, they should be a little runny not super under cooked. I'm not one to waste food but I left pretty much my whole meal , the sausages were delicious but the rest ugh! Gross! Unfortunately this food made me sick and I was not able to keep it in long , I was gagging. I won't be back , not sure if the cook had a bad day or if the waitress wasn't feeling working today. It was a terrible experience. There's outdoor seating and also parking , the restaurant is cute. And they serve alcohol too, But that's all I can say about it.

My family and I came on a weekend brunch, and the place was packed even at around 9:45am - we thought this was a good sign! The place is homey, nicely decorated with books by the entrance and even Santa was there. The food we ordered was delicious and a good amount of food, and it came out super quick. All the staff were great and friendly. It can be hard to get around the restaurant when it's so full of people and busy. The food itself was great, we loved the potato pancakes, avocado toast, Irish skillet, and even the coffee! We will definitely be back.

My wife and I stopped at Tony's Cafe for the first time on our way out to Woodstock and we couldn't have been more pleased. The restaurant was crowded, but we were seated in less than 10 minutes and were welcomed and approached very quickly. Our waitress Maya was extremely pleasant and helpful in taking our order to split a Denver Omelet and side by bringing us a pancake and a piece of buttered toast. Food was delicious, prices reasonable and wait staff was professional and accommodating . . . What else can you ask for these days? We will certainly return with friends.

OMG! My first time here! This is a place where you come in and order. Then there are some people in the back that you never see (or maybe they're elves...or magicians of some sort), but either way it does not matter. Something in the back happens. Then...you wait a little bit. Not too long. Patience padawan! Then the food comes out. The people, elves, or whoever they are in the back have somehow taken some yummy and they added goodness to your food. And the result (shock alert) is that you're eating yummy goodness! I'll come back though I'm not from around here anymore. I'm currently in Houston though occasionally I come back to Illinois. Thanks for the yummy goodness!

Ate here several times. If you ask for crispy hashbrowns, you'll get a pile of inedible grizzle. I'll share a Pic. Manager gave 10%off. With the price of meals, this is unacceptable. Also, food is always served first, toast arrives 5min later.....every time. Also, table behind us got up and left because they couldn't get their order taken after 15min. There were only 3 tables being waited on at the time.
