David DerrickAugust 26, 2014Breakfast food at bargain prices! Unique Scandinavian options like potato pancakes and lingonberry sauce. The banana pecan French toast was made with cinnamon rolls and tasted extraordinary!

Michael HarrisAugust 26, 2016Cinnamon rolls are the best! Also try the Open Face Turkey Sandwich with Mashed Potatoes and Gravy! It was the best I've had in my life!
Kirstin M.April 15, 2017Cinnamon rolls, unique Benedicts, and French toast! Everything is delicious. I know the prices are a little high, but considering the sides are huge it's not a deal breaker in the slightest.
XinnieAugust 26, 2017I really like their Swedish pancake with lingonberry jam. Biscuits are good and cinnamon roll is huge, but I think it's too sweet for my cup of tea.
D WDecember 25, 2014If you like avocado, Get the mexican omelet! Try the biscuits with honey instead of the cinnamon rolls they are great
Jeff EarlyNovember 24, 2015CINNAMON ROLLS! Also the Swedish pancakes and potato sausage with lingonberries. Great place, oh don't forget the meatballs.
Dustin HaleyJune 13, 2015Cool little breakfast place in Lakeview. Meals come with 2 sides, and one is always a cinnamon roll. So good.
Katie EytchSeptember 1, 2014When you order the biscuits or cinnamon rolls, remember that it's actually two biscuits and two cinnamon rolls.
Melody LeggeMay 24, 2015Cinnamon rolls are a must to get. The bacon cheddar potato pancakes are so good. It's BYOB.
Serious EatsMay 14, 2013Two of Chicago's most beloved cinnamon rolls will only set you back $3 at Ann Sather. And they are huge.
Dennis DireAugust 11, 2013Great Service, Amazing food ( love cinnamon rolls & crab cake Benedict) but the paying system is kinda awful. They charge to split a check.
Dee FykeMay 15, 2010Super awesome service! Incredibly friendly staff! They were all friendly and super attentive. Delicious food.. Cinnamon rolls are awesome! And they wrap up your leftovers for you... I like that :)
Meredith MarshMay 6, 2013awesome on all counts. cinnamon rolls are excellent, of course. everything else is pretty flippin' great too.
Maru GalvezNovember 22, 2012Order the Montecristo French Toast. And don't forget the cinnamon rolls. They are out of this world
EPIC cinnamon rolls. If you're in a hurry (or they are busy) grab some to go and eat em at home.- Amazing as usual. My fave is bacon cheddar potato pancakes or crab cake benedict!!
EpicuriousAugust 24, 2010Famous for its authentic Swedish meatballs, Ann Sather is loved by locals (Scandinavian or not) for its desserts - gigantic cinnamon rolls and marzipan cream cakes.- carol mjosethMarch 2, 2010amazing cinnamon rolls (and icing!), but skip the 'special.' steak and eggs and EITHER pesto OR blue cheese = good. All of the above together is a street fight in your mouth.
Cinnamon rolls. French toast fantasy which is cinnamon roll French toast
Lauren SnyderAugust 7, 2011Great service and fantastic food - avocado, egg, tomato, onion, green pepper and cheese breakfast wrap is delicious.
Matt DickerOctober 4, 2016Most dishes come with two sides, and that can only mean one thing...double cinnamon rolls!
Bacon potato pancakes with jalapeños and cinnamon rolls. All you need in life.
Chicago magazineApril 11, 2012It’s all about the cinnamon rolls—dense yet soft, drowning in a sugary glaze.

Great omelette - always order avacado, mozzarella cheese & tomato. Yum.
