This past March marked probably the first time in over 10 years dining in here. I've missed this place and one Sunday late morning, my wife asked where I planned on taking her and our kids for brunch. This family restaurant is a real gem in Waukegan and the menu which is at still reasonable prices boasts a fine blend of American, Greek and Mexican eats. That's one thing I look forward to at a family venue is good ol' home cooking in a not-so-fancy atmosphere, just good relaxation enjoying some delicious grub. I guess since I'm a foodie and go all over the Chicago area trying new places and leaving reviews, I tend to forget what's near home and Bob & Anne's is definitely on that list of go-to places when it comes to brunch. I absolutely love this place and will definitely be back soon! I wish for continued success & prosperity for the owner(s).

Our server Gia was fantastic- friendly and prompt service. Francisco was bustling around getting people coffee and tea and clearing used dishes to make more room on our table. All staff worked together and when I asked for a to go cup for my tea, at least 3 staff members helped me. We will definitely be back to this local gem!

We had an unforgettable time at Bob & Annes. From the moment we walked in, everything was perfect. The food? Off-the-charts delicious — every dish was full of flavor, cooked to perfection, and left us wanting more. Our server was incredibly warm, attentive, and welcoming — the kind of person who makes you feel right at home without hovering. What truly blew us away: they brought out games for our kids without us even asking. That thoughtful touch made the whole meal so much more relaxing and enjoyable for everyone. This place didn’t just serve food — it delivered a full-on experience. A 10/10 in every category: food, taste, service, and atmosphere. Highly recommend for families or anyone who just wants amazing food with a side of heart.
