Daniel was our server, and he was really awesome. He put up with my humor which I really appreciate. The food here is pretty darn good I have to admit. For this particular trip, I went with the avocado toast because of the salmon. To be fair, the capers, really make this dish. I did add some of their sauce at the head on the table just to see what it tasted like. It was pretty good. My compadres had the French toast and the yacht club which you will see in the pictures. This particular place is right by the Navy pier. Which he doesn’t love the Navy pier by Lake Michigan. Pretty awesome place.
I loved the options to get smaller portions of food, which was delicious. While the waitress did say the macchiato wasn't like a Starbucks one - it tasted delicious- it was espresso size, which I was not expecting. So that may be a good message going forward. Food, service & atmosphere was good. I'd go back!
This place is wonderful! The hubby and I shared the 5 egg omelette. Delish and fast. Coffee was on the table right away and my chai latte was one of the best I’ve ever had. They even had almond milk.😀
Our server, Joe, took great care of us. He had loads of energy and was so courteous! Can’t wait to visit again.
Very creative menu. Drink is kind of small. Main dish is big serving. Cheese grits is creamy and tasty. Smoke salmon scramble needs more seasoning.
We found our favorite breakfast spot in chicago. First time here, and we loved the food. The service was amazing. The cappuccino was good. We ordered the Very Berry French Toast, and it was delicious 😋 fresh strawberries 🍓 and blueberries 🫐. The Santa Fe Frittata is an amazing breakfast dish. The pancakes 🥞 were soft and fluffy. I will be coming here for breakfast when we visit Chicago again.
One the best (if not the best, actually Wildberry Pancakes is the only competition) breakfast/brunch place in Chicago. Awesome food, great customer service and amazing ambience. Absolutly in love with vibe of this place. Its a "must-go" place for my Chicago trips
With colder days ahead, every single meal fills you up right to tackle the long Chicago day lol. The skillets and scramble dishes have eggs of plenty, delicious veggies and meats. The Yolk hot sauce is a great topper for all
Food was great! Had. Breakfast there. Sat us quickly. Enjoyed the custom lattes very much. Overall recommended
Stopped by for Saturday Brunch on a 3 day visit of Chicago. Overall, a solid pick for a quicker brunch for an on-the-go schedule. There was around 30 parties waiting when we joined the waitlist, but the wait went by quickly and we were seated within 20 mins. The service was also quick and efficient, and the food was on our table without much wait after ordering. My partner and I shared a 5 egg omelet with a side of sausage links, which was about the perfect size order for us. Iron man omelet was slightly bland on its own, and easily crumbled which made it harder to eat, but was made delicious when combined with the two hot sauces at the table. Sausages were not so impressive with a soggy crust, but again made great tasting with the hot sauces. Would go again not for the bestest tasting food, but for a quick, solid, fair priced breakfast spot!
I had the country skillet and it was mostly potatos (70-80%); they could just call it a potato skillet. I was expecting a little more protein; but it is what it is. The lime pancakes with blueberries were good.
Got off the plane and had to wait to check in and we found this place. The food was excellent. The people were great. We were seated instantly on a Saturday morning. We had Erin and she was great. Definitely recommend
“Yolk Restaurant exceeded my expectations! The vibrant atmosphere, attentive staff, and, most importantly, the delectable menu made for an exceptional dining experience. The diverse range of dishes showcased creativity and quality ingredients. From the flavorful brunch options to the mouthwatering desserts, every bite was a delight. Yolk is now my go-to spot for a satisfying meal with a touch of culinary brilliance. Highly recommend!”
Great place for brunch. I really like how they have options for smaller portions.
The red velvet French toast was great paired with a latte.
Located near Shirley Ryan Ability Labs, it's a great breakfast spot ! Totally love their Ironman breakfast. 5 egg whites and veggies with a side of potatoes and pancakes. Yumyum
This was great and the food was fantastic. Our waiter Israel didn't miss a beat and was very friendly. A great place for breakfast/brunch in downtown Chicago.
It's worth the walk from our hotel. Huge menu. Large portions. Fast and friendly service. Great with children. Everything was amazing. Prices reasonable. We would definitely return. Loved the fluffy cakes!
After learning about Yolk on the news, I was eager to give it a try, and I must say, it did not disappoint. During my first visit, I ordered the "the works" omelet, which was truly outstanding. It was so flavorful and delicious that I was blown away. In addition, I also tried their waffles, which were equally fantastic. My dining companion opted for the Oak horchata cold brew, and they raved about how incredible it tasted, describing it as an unparalleled experience. They also enjoyed their oatmeal, which was also quite tasty. The wait times on the weekend can vary however from 10-30 minutes.The prices at Yolk are a bit high, with my omelet costing $20 at the time of my visit, but I would say that every penny was worth it for the quality of the food and service.
The location in streeterville is extremely convenient, and I would recommend arriving earlier in the day as it can get crowded reasonably quickly.
The omeletes and scramblers are decent but the sweet red velvet french toast is my top choice.
