20 Classic Restaurants In Chicago - Chicago - The Infatuation
"Opened in 1923, Lou’s on the border of Greektown and the West Loop is the old-school diner version of Cheers. But even if you’re just dropping in before catching a train at nearby Union Station (like many do), the staff will probably call you some variation of hun, sweetie, or darling. Grab a bar stool at one of their retro counters, and order a Greek sausage omelette with feta and a mini stack of silver dollar pancakes. The neon sign also says that they have the world’s finest coffee, and Lou Mitchell’s is the kind of institution where you just don’t question that." - nick allen, john ringor, adrian kane
