Are pets allowed on a patio area?

Yes, leashed dogs are allowed on the patio

Can we expect a speedy lunch service if we send clients there from 12:30-1:30pm on weekdays? sometimes only 45 minutes available.

We've had reservations before theater. Told them we needed to get, and they accommodated

Is it kids friendly?

Yes

do you have valet parking

Yes

Are they only doing New Year's Eve menu on December 31st, or will their regular menu options be available?

We made reservations for the evening of December 23rd. The meals were all fantastic!

Do you have valet parking?

The Hotel Allegro is a half block from 312 Chicago and offers valet parking. It's ideal for dining there and seeing a show at the Cadillac Palace.

Hi We have one month baby with us , is it suitable to visit the resturant?

Shouldn't be a problem. There were a few babies there the last time my wife and I stopped in.

Worst cystomer service. Once we paid the bill we asked for coffee and we were not served anymore after only 2 cups, the waiters/waitress started to clean the table while we were still sitting. The waitresses are starring at you when they pass in front of you and you can hear them talking in your back. About the dishes , mine was good but my girl's Turkey was awefull, without any taste and undercooked, she fell sick because of her dish. The menu is pretty expensive too if your student or uneployed expect at least 15$ per person (prices starting around 10$ for a meal)

Great diner food in the loop! It's a Greek diner so plenty of Greek food but also delicious fluffy buttermilk pancakes all day long! I've been a few times and I've never had to wait to be seated either. The seating is comfortable and the menu prices are reasonable. Wilk definitely go again.

The food is your typical Greek restaurant food that's pretty good the service... Let's just say if you end up here as a waitress I guess I can't expect the whole lot from you

Decent-priced, delicious food and very quick service. You can be seated, finished with your meal, and have your meal paid within twenty minutes without feeling rushed. Even at lunchtime. Plus it's right across the street from the Cadillac Palace Theatre!

Petros will always have me as a customer. It's the only place that can make liver and onions taste like a gourmet delicacy. The staff are friendly and attentive. I have been a proud customer for 27 years.

Great affordable diner with the best service ever. Alicia makes you feel like the most important guest in the world! Had a club sandwich and awesome fresh crinkle cut fries for a travel lunch near my hotel and came back for the bacon butterscotch pancakes for breakfast. Right mix of salty and sweet on the pancakes, they were delicious!

Decent place. Food was good and very reasonably priced. The only thing that bothered me was their sriracha wasn't really sriracha. Color and flavor were off. But I'd go back with my own bottle.

Definitely the best diner downtown, even though the service can be hit or miss. Alicia in the morning is the brightest ball of genuine energy you'll even meet at that hour. She'll make even the worst morning a little better.

My daughter called me as they brought out her meal for the third time. The first TWO times they got it backwards. Smh... then she was given a different price than what was on the menu. If you planned for an hour lunch make sure that you have more time because these people don't get it right the first two times. Food wasn't good. Not going back.

Weird weird weird. 1970s decor and out of things like 'rice' and 'carrots'. Spanish eggs were good, but the whole thing is just wrong. Do not recommend.

It was raining and windy. We were hungry and by that time most places had stop serving breakfast (11.00am) but we wanted breakfast , too early for lunch for us so we decided to go the nearest place near our hotel which was still opened for breakfast. Our Server was very warm, kind and nice completely opposite of the weather outside. However, there is very little I can say about the food. please remember we were super hungry, when the food came we jumped on it but as soon as the first fork full of food entered our mouth, you could see the disappointment on our faces. The fried chicken was too dry as if it was lefrover from last night, warmed up and served to us. the menu said the eggs Benedict came with bacon and ham in it but there was no bacon at all. the French toast grill chicken sandwich was slightly better then the rest 2 mentioned earlier however the fries it came along with had no seasoning at all.

The waitress did a good job. But yeah it is somewhat understaffed. Place looks dated but it's clean. Giving it a 3 stars cause the food was just boring. It wasn't bad but it wasn't exciting either. Every thing was just normal. Prices range from 10 to 15 dollars.

Downtown Staple - When you have a taste for home cooked comfort food, this is the go to in the area. Typically affordable compared to other restaurant prices in the downtown area but the prices have increased over the years. Great service, great food.

They charged over $11 for a bacon, egg and cheese on a bagel and when I got back to my office with the sandwich I discovered they didn't add bacon. It's nice to have a diner in downtown Chicago but the prices are too much.

Close to my work so convenient for me to get to. Food is decent and the service is good. The menu items are your typical diner items but nothing has yet to blow me away in term of taste. But bottom line is this....I love that I have somewhere to go in the loop if I'm ever craving a classic breakfast.
