• 9/5/22Have been eating at this restaurant for more than 15 years. It's one of the best in the Chicagoland area! Today I ordered Brandon's special grilled cheese and was absolutely shocked at how delicious it was. I was instantly regretful I haven't been ordering it forever. 40 thumbs wayyyyy up

• 5/18/24A little pricey but you get what you pay for. The breakfast food here is by far the most delicious compared to any other restaurant in the north shore area. The Disaster Special Omelette and Mexican Surprise Omelette are so very good and the bacon is always perfect. Sarkis is breakfast, it is known!

• 5/28/26I ordered the disaster omelette and boy was it a disaster. It was just too much going on. I normally get the Denver omelette and it is delicious but the disaster just missed the mark. The eggs were brown. I think it was an off day for the chef because normally this place is yummy! I just couldn't eat it

• 2/8/26Sarkis breakfast is something everyone needs to eat. It reminds me breakfast at home when I was a boy and my dad would make sausage and veggie sandwiches with hash browns! It's a place that once you try it, you will crave it forever.. so do yourself a favor and try the disaster Loretta!

• 11/30/23Sarkis is always awesome! My only complaint would be to do away with the Styrofoam packaging and get something biodegradable, like cardboard. Albeit, I do appreciate the use of tinfoil for sandwiches. Keep up the Sarkis legacy!
