  • Huge menu with tons of options...up to 20 different types of fish, diner classics, new american, lots of ethnic foods. but the thing I remember most was the selection of cereals prominently on display...I found it fun and comforting. by diabla Sun 04/08/2012 12:00 AM Joined Apr 2012 8 Posts 1 Restaurant Visits
  • We've eaten at Glenn's twice, both excellent. Arrive early, as seating is limited and wait can be long. Great food and friendly people! by airboss1998 Sat 03/03/2012 12:00 AM Indianapolis, IN Joined Apr 2011 6 Posts 7 Restaurant Visits

    Where else can you choose between 16 varieties of fresh fish and seafood daily or a bowl of your favorite childhood cereal? All-you-can-eat-crab Tuesdays and shrimp po' boys? Duh. [Eater 38 Member]
  • Time Out Chicago
    Try the cioppino from our 100 Best list: Among the reasons people flock to the place is this classic San Francisco dish: a spicy broth sporting a rotating cast of fish, sweet shrimp & tender mussels.
  • Time Out Chicago
    Tuesday through Friday, the catch of the day (with potato, veggies, soup and salad) is $17. Now good luck getting a table.
  • Amy G.
    Go to Glen's diner and let yourself be nostalgic about cereal.
  • Kimberly W.
    There are so many kinds of fish to try there and they all seems so mouth watering delicious. It's one of my favorites and my family's favorite.
  • Jamie C.
    Get the soup of the day.
  • Time Out Chicago
    Salads, grilled sandwiches and enormous omelettes, all made with fresh veggies and no greasy-spoon feel, are what keeps us (and Mayor Rahm, who counts this among one of his favorites) coming back.

    The lobster roll is out of this world. And, uh, yeah...it's REAL lobster.
  • Jeff C.
    Tuesday all-u-can-eat crab legs!
  • Katja H.
    Be sure to get the potato pancake, it is to die for!
