Peach’s Resturant

I visit peach’s at least twice per month… I always get the bacon, cheese eggs, grits & pancakes YUM. It’s always the same GREAT ! But today was different… I can definitely tell they have a new cook. They must! My food was different & under cooked. I live 3 blocks away and by the time I made it home I noticed my eggs were swimming in a pool of I don’t know what … I’m so disappointed but I will order my food WELL DONE next time since it’s now necessary to get cooked food.

It’s not bad but not amazing. Went by on a Wednesday morning. Had never heard of the place. Googled breakfast and found the place and it’s high review. The restaurant is really nice. Reminds me of an classic diner. Bar area, tables and booths. The wait staff took awhile to get to us. I ordered the good fella omelet. My partner ordered the shrimp and grits. We Both ordered the duck bacon. the food took 45 minutes and we had to ask the waitress to bring it out. My omelet had the consistency of egg foo yung. It was over cooked and just ok. Edible. The shrimp and grits seemed to taste separate. Don’t think I’m going back.

Must say the food is great and the atmosphere is amazing. If you are going to visit ask for Rachel, she is an amazing and very detailed.
Also I had the Lamb, veggie & feta omelette. It was great I recommend it.

Wow!
This was such a let down. The environment & the staff appeared open & friendly. The food itself was a disaster. The salmon, bacon, & pancakes were all sent back b/​c they were served to our table undercooked. The pancakes literally had wet dough in the center. The pork bacon was still pink as was the salmon. The food was sent back initially for being cold not room temperature but literally cold. Like how long was this sitting on a table with no heat light cold. When all of the food was placed on our table we knew exactly why it had taken so long to get our food! We had 1 order for the shrimp & grits which was piping hot (obviously was just cooked) but everything else was cold. SMH
There was a numerous amount of apologies but I’m sorry there is no excuse for a restaurant to send out cold food then replace it with undercooked food.

Fiancé and I came in for breakfast and must say we were blown away. I had the shrimp and grits which was amazing, perfectly seasoned. She also had the gouda and spinach omelet which was amazing. We had an opportunity to speak with the owner. She is an amazing woman with a great heart. Our new spot for breakfast and lunch. Service was amazing by the staff also, Talela (spelling) gave amazing customer service. Will always come back.

Brunch after church
I took my family to Peach’s after church. It was my wife and two sons (3 and 1). So, it started that there were no booster seats for the chairs — not a good start, but that is the ONLY bad thing I can say about the experience.
Let’s start with our server Jerome. He was professional, nice, accommodating, made relevant and GOOD recommendations and moreover was attentive — ask for him when you go.
We started off with Jerome’s recommended Peach’s coffee. My wife got the Gouda and spinach omelette which I would like to say was delicious but she inhaled it without even offering up a bite!
I got the shrimp and grits, cheese grits that is. At first I was disappointed because even though the shrimp were big there was only three, but as I dug in there were two more large ones under the blanket of grits. Everything was in perfect balance, the cheesey grits, the large shrimps, the chunks of bacon. Three words: de lish ous!!!
This is a great brunch spot, with great service and great food. I highly recommend you try it out and then, try it out again.
See you there, Sunday, after church!

Went to Peach’s yesterday for the first time and had the cheddar grits and croquettes. While the aroma of the food didn’t mesh as well as I would like, the food definitely tasted well together.
I will definitely go back to Peach’s for breakfast sometime. Next time I plan to try the French Toast and the Duck Bacon!

My cousin and I got to try the 7up pancakes and I gotta say that although I couldn’ taste the 7up as much as I hoped… the cream cheese glaze that they gave on the side really sealed the deal.
The food was on par with what you would expect of a good diner. And everyone gave service with a warm smile… who woulda thought Chicago would be so cozy in the winter time? :)

this is my new fav place. good food, good service. nice people. good place to come for breakfast & enjoy the company you’re with.

The photo speaks for itself. Bad choice for an enjoyable breakfast.

If you love grits this is the place. If you do not then this is not. The people with me love grits and are happy. I do not like grits and my omelette is okay to bland. The potatoes are well seasoned. My food came out warm.

BLACK OWNED BUSINESS
I love the décor and had heard great things about this restaurant.
Sadly my Catfish Poboy disappointed me.
It was kinda fishy and dry. For $ 8 I expected a better sandwich and it only came with chips.
My friend had the Philly Omelette which was good. I’ll give them another try and order that next time.

A neighborhood delight I was here on Saturday and enjoyed the chicken philly omelette which was very good. The potatoes were excellent seasoned and cooked to perfection. I will be back for the biscuits.
Great service, nice atmosphere, great location!

Incredible restaurant with A+ service. The Greek Omelet is my favorite. It’s incredibly tasty and the tzatki sauce is better than most Greek restaurants I’ve been to in Chicago.
We usually have Jerome as our waiter and he is one of the friendliest, professional waiters I’ve had. The good news is that even when we’ve had other servers, they’ve been wonderful too.

So, I LOVE THIS PLACE! Whenever I am in Chicago, I have to go to Peach’s. I just have to. Everything about this restaurant is great to me. The food is delicious, the people are great, and the prices are even better. My first time visiting I ordered the egg and bacon sandwich with potatoes. My friend ordered the catfish, grits, and greens; I regretted my decision once I tasted his food. Don’t get me wrong, my sandwich was delicious and just what I wanted, but everything about his food was mouth-​watering. The grits were cheesy and smooth, while the greens were super flavorful. So good!

I promised the owner I’d write a review now I’m holding myself to it.

1) I went with some of the most beautiful brown queer femmes I’ve come to know and it was just fantastic to laugh, and grieve and eat.
2) Our waitress was phenomenal. Knew that menu like the back of her hand and kept the specials coming so we all had feels about what to eat.
3) Because the wait for our food was long, the kitchen staff came out to apologize for the wait, and gave every single person at the table a complimentary biscuit and peach glaze. Those biscuits are the size of a grown man’s fists and are not to be eaten by the weak.
4) Everything was just delicious. And being around so many brown and black people who just wanted to share in joy and love of food was everything a girl could ask for on a cloudy Sunday afternoon.
5) While the décor seemed to be a place of «oh my gawd this isn’t inviting at all», I can say that it’s about the feeling of a restaurant when you walk in that is the appeal. You had church folk, friends, lovers, families that came and just wanted to enjoy each others’ company. I actually thought it was brilliant that it looked like old school black diners and the real presentation is in the food.
This place is DEFINITELY worth the trip and I’m all the way in RPark so you know I mean business.

I was in chicago and brought my mom, sister in law, and cousin. We got there 15 minutes before they closed and they had every menu option available.
The Peach’s coffee was so strong yet so good. The service was very attentive and generous. I got the 4 wings and french toast with strawberries for about $ 12. The chicken was well seasoned and the french toast was buttery and amazing.
My mom had the turkey sausage with eggs, grits, and the home made biscuit.
My cousin and sister in law had the grits, salmon, and pancakes.
Everyone loves the grits and the biscuits were soft and flaky.
We all were full and the bill for 4 people came to about $ 55. We will definitely be back.

I love this place. However, they have to receive 1 star for the horrible experience my wife and I had today.
Apparently, they were short staffed today, which is never a problem, if the establishment (I.e. Management) knows how to strategically place everyone. We should have known to turn around from the door once we entered. The wait was very short, about 5 minutes, if we wanted a table. We requested a booth but noticed that several tables and booths were available yet dirty. We inquired about the available booths and were told they would be ready soon. About 10 minutes later we were finally seated. Ok. A little rough start.
Things took a turn for the worst when we sat for about 15 mins before someone came over to give us water. When the person brought the water, they did not greet us. They just sat the water down and left. We started to think: Ok, maybe this wasn’t the best idea but the food is great. Let’s just stay.
As we sat there, we noticed that the servers were just aimlessly walking around: some going to the same tables over and over, some just gazing off and others conversing with each other. At this point, my wife and I are frustrated. We angrily stare and try to flag down several servers to come take our orders. Finally, one server (who was already carrying almost the whole restaurant) came and said I’ll get your server. 5 minutes later, she came by the table again, saw we had not been served and took our orders. She was very apologetic and explained how understaffed they were today. She became our saving grace for the rest of the time there.
My wife called for the manager. Christopher C., the manager at the time of our service, came over to inquire about what was happening for us. When my wife explained about the lack in service we had been receiving, he gave us this half assed excuse about how he too has been «shocked» at the service today. Sir, how can you be shocked at the service if you are the one coordinating it? He continued to fumble through his excuses and gave us some apologies. He then offered to give us a free drink for our Inconvenience. Yeah. That surely makes up for our inconvenience in the service you are coordinating today *sarcastic voice*.
While this is happening for us, other customers around us are beginning to notice the lack in service as well. They all are being treated in the Same manner as us. Some have complained to Christopher as well or have decided to leave.
After about 45 minutes from the beginning of this whole fiasco, our food finally comes. My wife’s food was fine. However, my eggs were undercooked and had a weird taste. I stopped eating them and had my wife taste them. She agreed that they tasted funny. We called for Christopher again. At this point I have lost whatever appetite I had left. He comes back over and we explain to him the issue. AGAIN, he tries to explain away the situation stating «the server should have asked you if you wanted scrambled eggs soft, hard, etc.» He then expresses how over the last 4 years he has worked at different establishments and this is the first time this has ever happened under his watch and how shocked he was that this is happening. Good sir, my wife and I ordered the same thing and neither of us specified, beyond just wanting scrambled eggs, how we wanted them. As my wife pointed out, it’s not the servers fault for not asking us, it’s the cook for not being consistent and management for not properly training the servers.
After we made a complaint about the food, several tables around us starting complaining very loudly. The manager is giving all of them the same excuses. We all united in a storm of complaints. He offered us 50% off of our Bill. He then tried to tend to all the other complaints. The server came back one more time to apologize. At this point, My wife and I lost our appetites and just pushed the food away.
When the sever brought us our bill and Christopher (the manager) didn’t do anything to the bill, we called him back over again. He again gave more excuses with apologies and then finally said he would cover the meal 100%. We gave him some insight as to how we would have liked this experience to have happened and then we left.
We will give them another try as this is the first time we have received this kind of poor service, but we won’t be returning for a while. Hopefully, a new system will be in place by the time we return.

Ordered two eggs scrambled with cheese as a side order to a special.
Here’s how they rang it up.
Eggs X 2: 3.90
Cheese X 2: 1.50
That’s right folks. Two eggs scrambled w some American cheese is $ 5.40 at Peaches.
Do they know how many eggs I can get for $ 5.40???
I could see if there was some culinary interpretation, fancy garnish or artistic presentation. But no, this was two eggs w American cheese as served at every diner, dive and greasy spoon found anywhere in the country. Plain as plain can get. I’m calling shenanigans.

Very friendly staff, Rachel was great! Bright and open floor plan made for an atmosphere conducive for enjoying this wonderful breakfast. The food was fantastic! The peach-​infused coffee… was, in my opinion, a HIT! My only comment regarding the coffee is that I would have liked a saucer instead of using my napkin for my used spoon.
This location is situated on a historic corner in the history of the community. Hopefully they will stay here for a very long time.
