Finally a breakfast place in Des Plaines that gets it. I have been very critical in most of my reviews of places serving breakfast in Des Plaines but finally Andy’s Café has what it takes to keep me returning. Coffee is really good, service is fantastic, food is great. With the only exception, in my personal opinion, is of their omelets … I HATEFORMEDOMELETS !!! Loss of a star for that one. Continuing … Their steak & eggs are great — huge portions — and very reasonably priced for either the skirt or chopped. Their side pancakes are also large, larger than some places regular order, and they don’t crumble. The skillets have yet to disappoint me. And, as some others have mentioned, their soups are delicious. The place has a real nice feel to it. The parking lot cannot accommodate this place during the peak hours. Maybe the next time I’m there I’ll ask if they can fold an omelet, if so, then maybe I’ll change this review to a 5 star.

I stopped by for lunch before an appointment. I wasn’t going to get the soup, Chicken Enchillada, but the waiter spoke highly of it. He was right! It was delicious. Unfortunately, I was so full from the soup, I could barely finish the rest of my meal. This little place was an unexpected treat.

We thought our hotel had free breakfast and it didn’t. We would rather spend money for a real breakfast. This was amazing. Everything was super fresh and delicious. We lucked out picking Andy’s. The service was fantastic as well!

Surprise! Surprise! Surprise! The food was not only very tasty… but the nice presentation was a surprise from such a quaint little place. The serving sizes were very nice. The taste was great and the food was«fresh hot». Service was really nice. It took a little longer than expected for the food to arrive but it was well worth having REAL mash potatoes!

This place never disappoints! Had the California eggs Benedict a week ago-perfection! Today had pot pie soup with the cutest«puff pastry croutons» –indescribable-it was that good. When I worked nearby I’d eat here at least once a week but then started back recently and now know it’s soup will keep us warm during next year’s winter-cancelling dinner reservations tonight and staying in with the pot pie soup!!!

I love this place! We’ve been eating here for a few years since my boss first took us here! Staff is super friendly and they are awesome at what they do. Food is good for the type of place(way better than Omega on Golf Road!) and their pricing is AWESOME! I suggest going on a Tuesday or Thursday for the AMAZING chicken enchilada soup!!!

Not a breakfast fan so the first time I was dragged here. I ordered a cheeseburger. at 10am, and it was delicious. I have since been back and had the Reuben, chicken, and chef salad. Everything has always been good. Service is great. Looks can be deceiving, that’s all I can say. From the outside of it, it looks like just another strip mall restaurant.

Went there this morning as it’s one of the restaurants on my way home from work at my pt job. Had been here once before — maybe 7 – 8 years ago. One of the things that other reviewers note and I couldn’t agree more is that the food wasn’t greasy or too salty. The eggs were fresh and robust on my corned beef hash skillet. Food came out fast — the English muffin was lightly toasted just as I had asked for it to be. Decent size glass of OJ at a price that doesn’t require a second mortgage. Good spot — I’ll try it again!

They give you a lot of food and the service is excellent sadly the amount of food doesn’t make up for the lack flavors and taste in their food.

Such good food! The skillets are well made and not salty, which was a huge plus. My husband got their country fried steak, which was heavenly– I normally am not a fan of country fried steak but Andy’s does it really well. Real sausage gravy as well! Will be back!

Good old fashioned cooking with great service, and run by great people. The breakfast skillets are huge and filling, and everything is top notch. They don’t cut any corners here. They even offer a choice of hot sauces, which I almost never see outside of the south.

Over all experience is great. Nothing fancy but down right great. Good good good casual friendly service as diner/café should be. This is a neighbor café so do not compare to Hotel Bel Air brunch. Blintz was great, Mickey Mouse pancake is perfect size for little one. Andy’s skillet is heavy breakfast to my appetite but tasty.

Great little place with wonderful food. I went here for breakfast looking for something new. The food was very good. The prices are reasonable for what you get. Andy’s just acquired a new repeat customer.

Calm, family-centered hidden gem. Right as I sat down, I was offered coffee, and our waiter was very friendly. I ordered Andy’s skillet, and each bite was just amazing. It was not too salty or greasy, as I find many skillets are at some diners. The pancakes are a great texture, and I probably could’ve eaten all my food if I weren’t too concerned about over-eating! All in all, for two people, 2 breakfast entrees and 2 drinks were $ 20. INCREDIBLY affordable. Will definitely be back again!
