We ate here a few weeks back. We shared an $8.75 platter. Everything on our plate was delicious. My stomach hurt after but hey it's diner food. The place was clean, the waitress was friendly, very social.

Live in downtown Arlington Heights and go to the village grill every weekend. Excellent service, excellent classic dinner breakfast and lunch.. The best patty melt you will ever have.. Greatest part is it won't bust your wallet..
(5)Gregory B.
Great: pancakes, service, potatoes. Good: cheese omelette. Iffy: parking, but you can't blame them! They need more offerings for lunch besides beef. Barely any turkey. Just a real, nice coffee shop out of 1970.
(4)Sherwin C.
Home cooked flavor and good portions at good prices. It's not exactly gourmet food but it's done competently and quick. Not a bad place to stop by if you're in the area.
(4)Sue J.
BEST BKFST IN ARLINGTON HEIGHTS!!We've been eating here for years. Eggs are fresh, bacon is crispy and sausage is yummy. French toast and pancakes are very tasty and the coffee is good. Everyone is friendly, the staff always greets us with a welcoming smile. If your server is Penny ask her about the Texas toast
(5)Cassie F.
We've been looking for a good diner for some time and finally found one! Food and service were both very good, and the pricing was very reasonable. We'll definitely be back soon!
(4)Oz T.
Best corn beef hash for sure. My husband and I test the breakfast places around the country with how good is their corn beef hash and this is it. I have a very sensitive stomach when comes to eggs and this is one of the very few places that I eat without feeling uprehansive about. Don't mind about the decor, fresh eggs, clean operation, owner is always present and loves what he does, you can feel it. Best breakfast place for fresh eggs and cornbeefhash lovers, period.
(5)John C.
Nothing beats a nice little old mom and pops diner. Literally, mom and pop the owners are there every day. Everyone is very friendly and the meals are served hot and quick. I go once a week or two and have not been disappointed with anything I have gotten there. I can not say for sure that one thing sticks out as a go thing to get but I can say that I always leave there thinking that was pretty good, very reasonably priced, and looking at other plates "that looks pretty good". You know, where I grew up they are all mom and pop shops and this has that same small town feeling. Warm and welcoming. Update: You know, I was looking at my ratings and I noticed that I gave Village Grill a 4/5 stars. I eat here once a week, I walk in and they took the time to learn my name so it's always "Good Morning John". When I realized I eat here once a week, get take out at least once a week for lunch, that told me I needed to update my review and give 5/5.
(5)Valerie W.
If you enjoy a greasy spoon, traditional diner type breakfast, this is definitely your place! My dad loves coming here, and I do too! Everything is fantastic, whether you're getting eggs, pancakes, French toast, a skillet, you name it. My favorites are the corned beef hash skillet (believe it or not, it is pretty easy to mess up corned beef hash [see my review on max & benny's] but these guys know what they're doing) and the biscuits and gravy. We're in Chicago. Any place that can do biscuits and gravy that have flavor and aren't watered down, winning.
(4)Solitaire L.
My Go-To Spot for Breakfast I have been going here for quite a few years--not sure why I've never reviewed it. Better late than never, right? This is a great ma and pa place for breakfast. I've never had anything here that isn't good and plentiful. It's really hard to find home made corned beef hash. I've been told at other places by wait staff that they're "pretty sure" it's home made, but you can tell it's from a can (which can still be good, but certainly not home made). Theirs is definitely home made and delicious--and they even serve you a side of fried potatoes (I've seen many places that cut out the potatoes when you order hash). Their skillets are good. Their service is very friendly and efficient. Their prices are reasonable. I can't think of anything negative to say! Oh yes! And they have awesome rye toast!
(5)Jim P.
Not good and I won't be back. I had their ham & cheddar cheese omelet with Greek toast and coffee. The best thing was the coffee (priced at $2.19 for a medium sized take out cup). The food had an unpleasant undertaste. I wonder when they last cleaned their grill. The hash brown potatoes were bland and mushy. The omelet was good sized but did not taste fresh. The cheese tasted like American. The toast was the worst. It was either stale or had been frozen (or both). Something is definitely wrong when I'm unable to finish a breakfast meal after not eating for 13 hours. There are many good alternatives for breakfast in this area. I do not recommend this place
(2)Nicole W.
I'll echo Kensey W's thoughts on Village Grill - the portions are definitely generous, but the food itself is kinda meh. My crepes were pretty floppy and spongy and the filling (strawberries) were likely unfrozen at the last minute. Thus, I didn't find any wow factor in my breakfast. That being said, there are some redeeming qualities about this locally run diner. Hubs' omelette was giant and super affordable, the interior, while a bit dated, was clean, and the service was friendly and very, very fast. Our food came out in less than 10 minutes when we visited before the church crowd on a Sunday morning. I'd give Village Grill another go, but I'd opt for something other than crepes next time...probably something eggy and cheesy.
(3)Theresa S.
If you're looking for a hole in the wall, classic breakfast diner, well this is the place in Arlington Heights. Coffee isn't so great but their service and AMAZING, I repeat, amazing corn beef hash is worth the 5 stars. For a family of 4 it gets pricy for us to dine out however, here, it was gentle on our pockets and great in our stomachs! This will become a regular for us!
(5)Lia C.
Wonderful staff and deliicciouss food!!!! They wouldnt stop serving warm coffee and fresh quality food. Great environment . It has a typical diner feel. I really recommend it!!!
(5)Melissa K.
Most amazing omelette and great customer service! We were immediately greeted when we arrived and offered coffee before we even sat down. Staff was very friendly and quick to bring our food and drinks. The food was the best! We both ordered the garbage omelette and thought it was one of the best omelettes we've ever had (we've definitely had our fair share of them)..... We will be back here often!
(5)Mark D.
Nice establishment which has that old hometown diner feeling. Friendly waitresses, the owner is the cook, which he does in an open cooking area. Breakfast is served all day and everything is delicious! They're only open for breakfast and lunch so get there before 2:00pm
(4)Mike B.
The Village Grill is a terrific option for breakfast in downtown Arlington Heights. The owner and waitresses are always friendly, and the service is efficient and attentive. Village Grill is definitely an old-school diner that offers all the basic choices and some daily specials for breakfast and lunch. I tend to alternate between the house-made corned beef hash and the ham with eggs, and both are delicious. The standard breakfast order includes three eggs instead of the usual two. Eating at the counter is a nice option when eating alone. This place offers outstanding value, as the food is good, and the prices are far lower than most competitors in the area. The only weakness is the mediocre coffee. I wish they would upgrade to something stronger and more flavorful. Still, it offers a satisfying breakfast and a friendly atmosphere.
(4)Colleen W.
Great breakfast place! Friendly staff. I ordered a skillet and it was excellent. My husband had pancakes and those were excellent. We went there on a Saturday around 11 and got a table right away.
(4)Katelyn C.
This hole in the wall, but well known AH gem is one of my favorite place to have breakfast in the whole town. Egg Harbor is overrated and over priced compared to the Village Grille! I have never waited to be seated, and it is everything you can expect from the menu with an amazing staff. DT AH would not be the same without The Grille for breakfast & Dunton House for lunch!
(5)Kensey W.
when it comes to breakfast food, giant portions tend to win me over. this place has giant portions. but the food is mediocre. i'd still come back though. for the deal and the convenience of its location, since i work nearby. i got the corned beef hash. i like to try corned beef hash at different breakfast place. it was pretty good here, but not great. slightly just above average but i probably won't get it again since i only like to get corned beef hash again if it's great. one good thing about it was that it wasn't terribly greasy and the beef wasn't minced and mushy like it is at some places. but the texture was still kind of grainy and i didn't like that. like i said, the portion was huge. it came with three eggs (scrambled for me), pancakes, and hash browns(!). i really liked their hash brown. they were slices of potato than shreds. seemed heartier than normal hash browns but not as dry as country potatoes. the eggs and pancakes were okay, but nothing exciting. the service was also good. the waitress was nice, my water stayed full, and she the only one working. she was sweet and little awkward, in an endearing way. and even though nothing was amazing, i'm still looking forward to my leftovers.
(3)Ryan B.
I have my reservations about writing a review about this restaurant, simply because I don't want to get the word out. A total diamond in the rough, I stumbled across this place about 15 years ago after I missed a train at the Arlington Park Metra. Wanted a cup of coffee while I waited for the next train...haven't stopped coming here for breakfast since. I can judge a great breakfast joint by the quality of the corned beef hash. These guys make their own! By the far the best corned beef hash in the country. I've ordered corned beef hash in Florida, New Jersey, California, New York and Pennsylvania and nothing has remotely come close to the Village Grill of Arlington. Couple that with monster portions, friendly service and a $10 tab and you could have the best breakfast joint in Chicagoland. Shhhhh...don't tell anybody!
(5)Jan D.
This is our go-to place for breakfast. Completely unpretentious, great food, very friendly atmosphere, very attentive - never, ever have to wait for coffee or water. And they always remember exactly how to cook the eggs the way my husband likes them, and that I like fruit instead of potatoes. What endeared them to me forever is that they were all so kind to my mom when we brought her in there, despite her walker (later, her wheelchair) and her faulty memory. They didn't mind! They greeted her like an old friend, chatted with her, boxed up her leftovers for her. She loved this place too.
(5)Ann Marie L.
The Arlington Grill is a great family place. We love the food and the service is excellent. My grandchildren love the Mickey mouse pancakes. They also have very good prices if you are looking for good food at reasonable prices. This is a small place but very welcoming to families with children. Love that there is usually no wait. Try it, I think you will enjoy your food!
(5)Jonathan M.
We are locals who have been to the Village Grill of Arlington several times now and the environment, service, and breakfast / lunch food are all excellent when you're looking for the small-town diner experience. Food is cooked behind the counter and the booths are lined up by the windows right by the intersection of Northwest Highway and Dunton St. where cars are buzzing past. There are other diners in the area (Uptown Cafe, Egg Harbor, Dunton House), but this one has a small-town vibe that's pretty cool. The food is great - for under $20 for two people you can get out with coffees, large skillets that include eggs, hash browns, and pancakes or toast. The waiters are very attentive, never leaving you with an empty cup of coffee or water even on busier times. We've also never waited for a table or had trouble finding space to hang up coats or store our 2-year-old's stroller in the corner of the restaurant. We'll definitely be coming back and bringing our friends as well to this favorite spot.
(5)Mick B.
Service friendly and great to excellent- our breakfasts were tasty but to be honest, they were basically the same as many hundred other Greek style diners in the greater Chicagoland area. Other reviewers mentioned that parking is somewhat of a problem- we had no problem on a Sunday mid-morning. Heck the Arlington Heights Metra station lot is right across the street... A solid pick if you are hungry and don't want a long wait in some of the fancier and pricier breakfast places in the western 'burbs.
(4)Rob M.
Best breakfast in AH. If you like corn beef hash... WOW.
