Pearls Place Restaurant

The day I went (Saturday before mother's day) they had an all you can eat buffet for $20! ? And BOY.. Everything was delicious!!! The macaroni and cheese was AMAZING and the BREAD PUDDING with RUM SAUCE was literally the best thing I have ever put in my mouth! Not kidding! ??? I wanted to go back again the next day. Lol My only complaint would be that the decor is a little dated but this place has been here forever and a lot of older people dine here so it makes sense. I cant wait to visit Chicago again so I can go back to Pearl's Place.

My family of 5 went in on a Sunday afternoon for the all you can eat buffet. The wait was about 25 minutes to be seated. The server was pleasant, food was good and plentiful, no major complaints. We did order shrimp and grits off the menu and it wasn’t the greatest. I’d return for the buffet, they had greens, smothered chicken, meatloaf, candied yams, all day breakfast (omelettes) etc,

I stopped in hoping for a late breakfast and discovered a new favorite restaurant on the near south side. I tried their breakfast buffet and was treated to a homemade omelette, potatoes, bacon, sausage and fresh biscuits. Everything was delicious, hot and fresh. I’ll definitely be back to try out the lunch and dinner menu.

What Lunch!! Looked forward to eating here from the reviews. I was pleased beyond ny expectations. The food was great!! Down home southern cooking!! But what makes it great is the staff. From my greeter, to the server, to the chef at the buffet. Plenty of southern selections. Also you can order from the menu. Also white table linen, and a homie feel in the dining room. A must visit. Do not let the outside area or oarking put you off. Must visit. Thank Pearl for a wonderful lunch!!

The service was friendly and the food was really good. Almost every menu item was on the buffet. Pancakes, waffles, grits, eggs, build your own omelettes, potatoes, ham, bacon, turkey sausage, salmon croquettes, fried chicken, Mac n cheese, catfish nuggets and I'm sure I'm forgetting something. And that was just breakfast!

This is the pot roast dinner with mac & dressing. Let me just say it was superb! Everything was flavorful i had to add salt and pepper to the mac & cheese but overall it was delicious. The muffin was a little bit hard for my taste.

Wow, the service was impeccable! Our waiter was one of the best I've had in any fine dining restaurant! Although I can't recall his name, I can remember he was the only waiter with green stitching in his chef coat. If your looking for a nice family feel restaurant this is the place. The food was nice portion, affordable and good. I had rattle snake tall & the turkey dinner. My wife had shrimp & grits.

It was busy today. Worth the wait. I went with a program with Lake County Health Department it was fabulous the food was amazing! Everyone treated everyone like family. Chef Richard I believe his name makes the BEST pancakes, waffles and omelettes!
