Question

Just tied to go to Eggsperience on 75th and they weren’t open. Closed for good? Can’t be closed because of Presidents Day and no signs on the window.  

Answer 1

Last time we went there it was pretty damn horrible

Answer 2

That's a shame. They were very good, and couldn't be any nicer to our cub scouts when we sold popcorn outside their front door.  

Answer 3

The Naperville location is no longer listed on their website so my guess is closed.  

Answer 4

I never cared for the food. But always seemed busy.

Bacon eggs toast or omelette. always tasty for me

Answer 5

We were there yesterday and several staff members had quit. We've been going there nearly weekly for several years, and are sad that the new owners ran it into the ground, and that so many loyal staff members held on for so long, sacrificing their own financial interest to try to see it through. How can you make money off tips when the ownership is neglecting basic functions of the restaurant, the tables can't turn over quickly due to problems in the kitchen ranging from broken equipment, lack of ingredients, inadequate staffing, etc? I don't know what plan they had when they bought this location and removed it from the franchise structure.  

Answer 6

That’s unfortunate

Answer 7

I went last week and they were out of potatoes and had been for a week. It seemed weird for a breakfast place. :(

Answer 8

Go to Pancake Cafe

Answer 9

I was there yesterday. That’s too bad. I liked it.  

Answer 10

The original owner just opened a new restaurant in Evanston, my sil worked for him on 75th st and now working for him at the new place.  

Answer 11

How does a downtown restaurant on the strip fail? If you run it right and treat your people right. the customers will come. The foot traffic potential is crazy high

@echovirus84758 are you thinking of Egg Harbor? This post is about Eggsperience near 75th I believe.

@jahnke Kolinski DeSimone Damn I sure was. *pours more coffee

---

@echovirus84758 didn’t want for you to stop going there  

Answer 12

I used to go there regularly for brunch and such. Loved it. What a shame it closed. Pancake Cafe is also good but pricey. The location of Eggsperience couldn’t have been better with high end stores and a big intersection. You’d have to just be ignoring customer service to fail like that. Shame on them.

Answer 14

It makes me wonder if the new owners really bought it with plans to close it and open something else.  

Answer 15

I went once and didn't care for it. Many other good options nearby.  

Answer 16

Come down to eggcited on 59! Way better and extremely consistent

@crosswise 59 and what?

@nevernever75449 111th behind starbucks

@crosswise thanks!  

Answer 17

Eggscited at 111th and Rt 59 always has good food and their service is great too.  

Comments

We love that place! Our go-to for amazing breakfasts!  

Answer 18

So Juicy-O on 59 across from the mall is great and they serve every table warm homemade donut holes

Comments

You can never go wrong with homemade donut holes.  

Answer 19

Eggscited on 111th and 59 is excellent! Properly staffed. Delicious Food. Friendly. Owners that really care about their restaurant and how it’s staffed and how the food is prepared.  

Answer 20

We went there like one time. The food was good but didn't much care for the physical restaurant itself. They were always kinda busy though, good on them. Has anyone noticed the revised menu over at Colonial on Washington and Gartner? They did a great job of making themselves relevant and new. If you haven't been in for breakie make it a point to stop one day. You'll be pleasantly surprised!  

Answer 21

What happened to Ellies on Route 59 next to Aldi's near 95th?  

Comments

Not sure if it’s the same, “Ellie’s, ” but there’s one on 75th street. across from the DMV.

They said they moved from somewhere but I don’t remember where.

@seton not the deli, the restaurant. Its right next door to Aldi's. It was a family restaurant. Still there, but not open for months.  

---

Ohh. Yeah I don’t know about that place. Sorry

---

It was Elly’s Pancake House, and I heard employees arrived to locked doors one morning. We were really sad, we live almost right behind it. Sure wish someone would put something new in.  

Answer 22

My husband went recently with a friend and they both thought the food was sub par and service was terrible

Answer 23

Honestly Dave would make better eggs.
