I love this place! Being from the south, I have yet to find a restaurant that has good grits, until eating here. Their Louisiana style omelet and cheese grits are to die for! I have been to both locations and loved both.

Their ambiance is great!

I highly recommend this place.

I was introduced to Wishbone a year ago after running a race with friends. Since then I have taken many others to this trendy breakfast spot, and all have agreed that Wishbone has some of the best breakfast in the city. The crunchy french toast is addicting! Other favorites include the hot chocolate, omlettes and chicken apple gouda sausage. Thier corn bread and potatoes are also some of the best breakfast sides I have ever had!! Oh and the decorations on the walls make for great conversation :)

There are a couple locations in Chicago, my favorite was in the West Loop, near Harpo studios. The food is great, the restaurant is always busy and the staff is friendly.

Best reinvented Southern style deliciousness. Michael Jordan loves the blueberry pancakes at the downtown location - he would go there after his workouts. Just ask the chef what MJ had for breakfast this morning.

Super-delicious southern-style breakfast. Both locations feature captivating/alarming art & employ an evil poodle mascot. Atmosphere: crowded. Get here early on weekends! Recommendations: cheese grits, Red Eggs:

“Two eggs any style served on corn tortillas covered with black beans, cheese, chili ancho sauce, scallions, sour cream, and salsa.”
