Emily’s Pancake House

rough service. no one seemed to acknowledge my table for 20 minutes and then we finally got water. every time we come one meal is always a little off. either it’s too cold or not cooked and was more disappointed than the other times. two meals caused my family to be sick and sit on the toilet for two hours afterwards. never coming here again.

What happened to this place? Last two times I came here I’ve left hungry. For people who’ve been coming here for years… guys… We can tell you’re cutting corners and costs. When you order 2 eggs and get 4 eggs for YEARS, and you suddenly pay more for one less egg that’s likely overcooked… Or when you only get a tiny scoop of hash browns when you’re used to a mound… When the skillets are mostly potatoes and not much else… pancakes are suddenly cold… coffee tastes watered down.
Time to go elsewhere.

I have eaten at Emily’s twice. The first time I had a salad with chicken, bacon, eggs, nuts, etc. and a strawberry dressing, delicious. Today I had their eggs Benedict Very good! Great casual place good food fair prices!

Had a great breakfast. Good food, reasonable price. And got my own pot of coffee so no waiting for refills. The best for a coffee-​a-​holic like me.

Use to love this place, but it’s not worth the money anymore. I don’t know if they have different cooks on the weekends but I always order a 2-​egg scrambles with hash browns and toast (wherever i go). This last time we were here, I ordered the same thing, and when they brought out the food, I had what looked like a 1 egg, and a spoonful of hash browns? Wouldn’t even be enough food to feed a child. A friend and my boyfriend ordered pancakes, and they couldn’t even eat them. Using a knife they could barely saw through their rubber pancakes, and they tasted like chalk. Not to mention the bill was over $ 50 for a couple orders of pancakes and a 2 eggs breakfast. Left a bad taste in my mouth literally, and figuratively speaking. We won’t be going back there again. The

I went there for breakfast this morning and could not have been more disappointed. …the French Toast was dry bacon was cold and I didn’t get any coffee until we were ready to leave. .I wouldn’t go back there if they gave me free food. …zero stars… I should have known because the place was empty. Never again

My family and I went on a Sunday morning, and the restaurant was moderately filled.
Our server told us right away that she had two large parties, so it may take her awhile — To me, that seemed to be a cop-​out for poor service, but okay.
When it was food time, I ordered a skillet– the eggs were cold, cheese was cold. it was just. meh.
Service was okay. Food was nothing special.

While driving around Sunday morning, took a chance to check the place for breakfast. Seated promptly, but they are understaffed, coffee took more 10+ minutes to get to the table. Would not recommend this place.

The food is overpriced service was fair I am used to leaving a place and feeling full I was not I don’t understand why they only have breakfast and lunch. It’s not terrible but could be better

Our food was very good. It came to us very quickly, hot and full of flavor. The staff was very courteous and attentive. This was our first time joining them for breakfast but I do know that we will be back soon to try other items on the very large menu.

Clean, pleasant staff. Nice local place. Good selection of all sorts of entrees. Lots of parking. Easy to find.

Great service today. New server who was great with the menu. Great price for the food that you get. A lot of it. Couldn’t finish.

So today I had the occasion to visit a pancake house with two babies, an eleven year old, and two exhausted parents. The corner booth we occupied was perfect for the older little guy who instantly became fixated on the curtain blinds… simple pleasures. The other youngster maintained a consistent slumber even with the multiple check ups and conditions of the entire room.
I will say that the hash browns and eggs are what knocked this review down to a three star experience. The best part of this place is it’s hesitated and the unspoken understanding of keeping the babies occupied. The eleven year instantly had a strawberry milkshake ten minutes into our visit and was silent throughout the meal. Getting back to those burnt hash browns and dry eggs. I ate everything, It is the custom of my house to clear your plate always. I ordered the Greek sizzling skilet and was also given a side of the cinnamon swirl pancakes… these were great! I wish I had known this was actually a thing sooner. Definitely something I’ll be looking for the next time out for breakfast.
I know this review is all over the place but if you eat here, it might make sense. This is a place for the weary who need a good meal and considerate service. The good might not be the most amazing thing in the world but it definitely gets the job done. Bring your babies, bring your kids, bring your parents and some hopes for peace of mind.
Cheers, still have another pancake to finish.

Only breakfast I liked there I gave 3 stars for it but for the service I gave them 2 stars they are somewhat good but not great, they into there 20’s but don’t have a dame.

Not coming back here anymore. The place was understaffed and no one stepped in to help. Ordered loose scrambled eggs that were anything but loose and had to be sent back. What a waste of food. And whoever heard of $ 5.00 instant hot chocolate?

We went for breakfast on a Sunday morning, so I was expecting a wait and delay in getting our food, but we we’re sat right away and the food came out pretty quickly. The dining room was clean and my wife and I both enjoyed our breakfast. Going to a diner I never expect fine dining quality food so I wasn’t even so disappointed that some of the food was frozen prior to being cooked. The reason they don’t get five stars is because the staff wasn’t very engaging. The hostess did a drop and go with out menus, the waitress kept everything strictly business, and when I went to the register to pay my bill I didn’t even get a «how was everything this morning?» Emily, you should expect more from your staff, especially on your busiest shift.

restaurant located in the middle of no-where…stopped in for weekday lunch… ordered ½ lb. burger medium… what i got was two ¼ lb. patties well done and dry… it came with side if coleslaw in a plastic to-​go container even though i’m dining in… chicken noodle soup was salty (too much instant bouillon)…the price was a bit on the expensive side considering the mediocre quality food… the server was friendly and attentive… huge empty parking lot, probably because everyone else went to ihop…

After moving north from the O’Hare area, I came here on my search for great pancakes.
I was sat rather quickly by a woman who seemed like she couldn’t be less interested in her job or the fact that the restaurant was rather dank feeling and smelled of urine and mop water in need of changing.
My order mercifully came rather quickly. The coffee was tastless, which wasn’t helped by the spoiled half and half. The leathery, barely warm pancakes that tasted just like the surface they were cooked on held their own against the frozen pads of butter and resisted soaking up the flavorless maple flavored syrup.
I don’t remember much else as I must have blocked it out.
Don’t do it. Just don’t.

Their food is okay to good. BUT their wait staff and tattooed hostess will kill their business. We have been there three times and each time it gets worse.
The waitresses really need some training.
Who would hire a hostess that looks like she should be at a biker bar???
This will be the last time, there are way many restaurants around to choose from.

Usually they are good, but they are slow and non responsive today. The food came out cold and they can’t even refill the coffee. I asked for some salsa and it took five minutes to get some. The pancakes were cold and hard. Go somewhere else. This place now sucks.
