I’m so glad I went upstairs at the Time Out Market. I had a lovely sit-down breakfast at Lizzy Js, including delicious chicken and waffles and strawberry lemonade! What a treat! And the warmest service! I’ll be back.

Listen this place is amazing! I was visiting from out of town and so happy my family suggested we go to Lizzy J’s! Excellent food and service! The biscuits are top tier! The Lemon Ricotta Pancakes are something different, you have to try them! I didn’t leave anything on my plate! I was there for Sunday brunch, loved the DJ. Just go visit!

There are few things I swear by and Lizzie J being one of the best brunch restaurants in the city is one of them. Tucked away on the second floor of Time Out Market, Lizzie J emerges as a southern brunch gem. From the moment walk in their dining area, an aura of graciousness greets you, delivering an authentic taste of down-home hospitality.

The catfish and grits with hot sauce are a culinary symphony, with each component harmonizing flawlessly. Crispy catfish meets velvety grits, all elevated by a tantalizing hot sauce. The flavors intertwine, crafting a sensory experience that leaves you yearning for more.

For an avant-garde twist, the salmon croquettes, crowned with sweet corn, atop a meticulously seasoned bed of grits are a revelation. A symphony of flavors unfolds as the croquettes' delicate nuances meet the sweetness of corn, all accentuated by the impeccable grits.

Amidst Chicago’s culinary scene, Lizzie J emerges as a beacon of southern brunch artistry. If you're looking for an unparalleled brunch experience Lizzie J at Time Out Market is your spot!
