"Inspired by the retro milk bars of the ‘50s, this Los Angeles import slings morning fare at all hours of the day. So don’t worry about missing out on brunch; scoops of cookie dough, boozy Frosted Flakes-coated French toast sticks, and cheddar and chive biscuits will be waiting no matter how late guests drop by. They might just have to take it to go, though, as the small space only has a few seats." - Jeffy Mai

This is one of the most light, modern and innovative restaurant in the city. I love breakfast for dinner, when I walk in to a floor and counter tops that were covered in all of my favorite cereal covers l felt right at home. The music was great and it was an enjoyable time. I love the soda options as well as the innovative drinks. I ordered The AM Burger, Tots and Crinkles and a Hot Cuckoo. The Hot Cuckoo was one of the best drink ideas I've seen. It was a hot chocolate with Cocoa Puffs and half burnt marsh mellows. It was so good that I found myself scraping the bottom of the cup with a fork to get the last bits of marsh mellows. The Burger was excellent, I ordered it medium rare and I was amazed by how good it tasted. It included a 1/4 pound beef patty, an over medium egg, sharp cheddar cheese, arugula, bacon fat mayo, caramelized onion ketchup all inside of two potato buns. Perfect cooked patty, perfectly cooked egg and it was a killer burger. The Tots and Crinkles were awesome, it consisted of tater tots, crinkle fries and Nashville hot mayo. They were really good. The mayo was 5/10 on the spice scale. Overall I will be back soon and I can't wait for that day. This is one of if not the best new restaurant in Chicago. Good Luck!

Great ambiance (not a sit down restaurant) and super nice crew. Got The AM Burger and it was out bounds! Tad bit pricey since there are no sides that come with the burger, but it was delicious. Also sampled the Cinnamon Toast Crunch whip cream and let me tell you I may become an addict for their Cereal Milk Coffee. Good work Nighthawk AM!

My friends and I were very pleasantly surprised when we stopped in for some grub before a night out. Despite the simple counter look, the food was full of flavor and clearly made with passion. James and all the staff were extremely friendly, wanting to make sure we enjoyed our visit.

Tasty food and fun decor. I ordered the Basic Wich and although it was good, they put a little too much Nighthawk Sauce on it. The Tots and Crinkles were great and the Frosted Flakes French Toast is a winner.

Delicious and fresh. Decided to check this out after leaving a DePaul concert. The AM Burger hit the spot! It is loaded with flavor in every bite. If I am ever out in the area I will be back for sure.

Yeah I’ve been here for 45 minutes. Word is the owner won’t hire more than two people at a time. And the chef has been working 13 hours without overtime pay. HEY OWNER, figure it out.... or WE WILL SHUT YOU DOWN

Staff is nice and food is pretty good, but I waited 40 minutes for my food. That totally defeats the purpose of going to a fast casual type of establishment.
