So, it took me a day extra to report but the food was good. I had breakfast for breakfast and was overall happy. The Manager was open to the fact that there needs to be some changes/additions. The hash brown were not much more than mashed potatoes on a griddle and they did not have tea. I am a bit dissapointed that it again is trying to be everything to everyone but I guess that man cannot live on breakfast alone. The chef is someone that has worked in the chicago Jewish community for a while.

The place was clean and I did not find the price to be outrageous.

Ok, you have all convinced me. I think we'll try it this weekend. I have been craving a good greek panini for awhile.
Hopefully the service will improve by the time we get there:)

I was just there! The food was great and the prices were fine. It seems they are trying to open a new danalis. The only thing that wasnt so good was the service. I came in and the guy was like oh.....um....heres a menu i think they should get more settled on how there serving you.. But the food was spectacular. Everything on the menu looked good. They really arent there for pizza i mean i think they sell like a personal pizza.
Anyways it was great and i left there satisfied

they are now open for breakfast at 8am and they close at 8pm. The food was pretty good but the prices were a bit high in my opinion. Their menu is now posted on the CRC website http://www.crcweb.org/guide_chicago.php

The prices don't look so bad. Similar to what Da Nali's used to be I think.
How was the service? Cleanliness, etc.?

I'm sure all we Chicagoans are thrilled and very optimistic on their behalf.
