I’m so happy we decided to stop in on our way back home to Indiana. Let me tell “this place is a hidden gem.” The history displayed throughout the walls is a history lesson in itself. The atmosphere was one of a down south Southern vibe. My waitress Diedre was the absolute best. She was very knowledgeable about the different food items on the menu. My fiancée is not a breakfast person, but he cleaned his place! Lol that speaks volumes about how good the food was.

The restaurant is not in the greatest area but you could not tell from the inside of the restaurant. The ambiance is soulful. I believe the people who work and dine here are the heart of real Chicago. Everyone is friendly and wants to have a good time. I had a wonderful sever named Jermaine and like other servers were very attentive and friendly. The food was well seasoned and the staff had a just phenomenal. I want to stop at this place every time I am in Chicago. Love it ❤️

It’s hard to find good southern shrimp and grits up here in Chicago. I’m crazy for southern food and have tried to order shrimp and grits or even just grits whenever I can find them. I decided to try the shrimp and grits from Pearl’s via delivery, but assumed because of delivery times, they might not be great. Wow! I was pleasantly surprised! The food was thoughtfully packaged with foil around the container and HOT when it arrived. I was immediately hopeful. When I opened the food, I was blown away by how good it smelled and looked. One taste and I was hooked! These shrimp and grits are South Carolina level amazing! I haven’t found anything approaching the quality and taste in the Midwest. Thanks Pearls! You made my day.

Found this restaurant online before visiting Chicago for a family trip. They did not disappoint. We ordered for pickup and loved every part of our meal. We thought the food was a bit pricey at first, but with the portions they give it was well worth it! The girl thank rung us out was also super nice and professional. I’ll definitely be back when in Chicago again.

I come here once a month for breakfast. Food is wonderful, plenty variety, and service is great. They even remembered me from coming when I was pregnant. Always kind-hearted people here. Feels like I’m back on the south at this place. All should go check it out.

Came near end of day. Food was delicious! I had fried shrimp and cabbage. Shrimp were crispy, fresh, and piping hot. Cabbage was beautifully seasoned without being spicy. Cabbage had an earthy sweetness without mushiness. I ate most of my husband’s greens. They were absolutely delicious. Apple cobbler was a sweet, crusty, late night treat.

Coming from Vegas where we implode anything more than twenty years old, it was an absolute pleasure to step into historical elegance. I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to enjoy a jerked turkey omelette with grits. So good!
