Diamond Pancake House

I think I just found my new breakfast place in the south burbs. Got the corned beef hash skillet with eggs. Absolutely perfect. Great taste great service. Can’t ask for anything else. Will definitely be back soon.

Decent food and service. Disappointed they are no longer carrying pecan rolls.

So my review on this place is solely based on the service alone. Only because my boyfriend and I sat for a good 15 minutes and did not receive any acknowledgment whatsoever. No coffee, no hellos, nothing. With that said, we got up and left. So I cannot comment on what the food was like, unfortunately. However, I am going to assume, that based on the extreme disorganization of this establishment, our food would have been subpar as well.
I would also like to add that the décor here is not for everyone. There is a creepy virgin mary statue at the front desk? And if I recall the walls were white and decorated to a bare minimum with tacky objects. It just was not very inviting. It also took 3 different people to seat us, but there were only about 5 other people/​groups inside.
My experience was quite negative. I don’t think I will be going back!

Was there today, the waitress was bad, I think she was new, the cashier confirmed it.
On the way out we told the cashier, hopefully the owner makes some changes. I wish we would’ve just canceled the order it took long enough we were upset and ate anyway that upset our stomach, it was unsettling. I’m certain she was racist, very pathetic. More importantly she handed us our drinks placing her hands on the mouth of the cups, and not on the stems, which is a code FDA violation, I will not be returning to this place and wish everyone the best of luck. I’m simply communicating this is alarming.
I could go on with details but, I won’t and will remain humble.

After being seated, it took 10 mins for the server to realize I was there. I watched as other servers attended to the needs of the tables around me, while I sat and waited to be asked if I wanted coffee or was I ready to order. When I mentioned the 10 min wait to the server, she wanted to argue with me. I should have walked out then. The food was good, prices are fair, just the service on a Sunday morning was really lacking.

I’ve eaten at this restaurant numerous of times and never once have I been disappointed. The staff is friendly, the service is phenomenal. Establishment is very clean. The menu is huge. Would recommend it to anybody.

My friends and I come have continued to come here for years, and do not plan on stopping. Their skillets, including the Farmers and Mexican, taste amazing, as well as their large selection of omelettes, egg dishes, and other various items. The service is friendly, efficient, and always has a smile.

One star?!
No this is wrong.
This is the best breakfast place in oak forest!
You can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. So much skill in those skillets. Pancakes are bomb. Coffee is killer. Pigs in a blanket? Hell yeah!
All for the best price within miles!
Wonderful service always. Wonderful atmosphere. Everyone cares here.

good food good prices great coffee great service !! eat here 1 or 2 times per week for breakfast !!! never been anything but completely satisfied !!!

My wife and 3 kids love this place. When we go it’s usually on Sunday after Mass. We usually have the breakfast skillets: Mexican and Italian-​they are very tasty. The kids do pancakes, beacon, hash and OJ-(traditional breakfast). Oh and we all love the Cream of Chicken Soup! We usually stick to the same order everytime, it’s that good! The menu is really vast so I can’t in good faith comment on the other menu items. I did once have a Club Sandwich– it was good. The servicie is friendly and the meals come out quickly. This pancake house is as good as it gets in this neck of the woods.

We always overlooked this place because the sign makes it sound like a jewelry store! Unfortunately I should have realized that since this place wasn’t reviewed yet that that might mean bad things… I got violently ill about 12 hours after I ate there. Of course you can never say for sure that it was this restaurant that caused the food poisoning, but I don’t really want to give them the benefit of the doubt and test it again because it really wan’t that great anyway.
We went there on a friday and I inquired about the special on the sign (breakfast special 3.99 monday through friday). However since it was a holiday (veterans day), I was told that this particular day it wasn’t available. I think that is false advertising and it definitely made me grumpy. It was one of the main reasons we wanted to even try this place, since it is rare that my husband and I are both off on a weekday.
I got pancakes and a skillet meal, and my husband got the eggs/​pancakes/​sausage/​hash browns meal. They both tasted fine. If you do go, definitely DON’T order the chocolate milk. It was watery and thin, and it definitely tasted strange and off. It tasted like chocolate almond or soy milk.
My husband didn’t get sick, and he ate similar things to me, so I am guessing one of the eggs in my skillet meal was bad or some of the vegetables weren’t washed properly. The incident was reported to the cook county health commissioner so they could investigate.
