Seven Brothers Restaurant of Morton Grove: A family restaurant and community destination for all!!!

The Seven Brothers restaurant is the American dream of the Tsagalis brothers who emigrated from Tripoli Greece. They came to this country one by one and together have created a wonderful venture that has allowed them to take careof their families and provide a place for other famillies to get together and break bread.

The family steadly emigrated to America from Greece and ended up building
and assembling Morton Grove's premier family restaurant:  Seven Brothers Restaurant (http://www.thesevenbrothers.com/). Their rich history is full of working in the restaurant business and learning the industry from the bottom up. They are very very hard working and each brother manages and takes care of different parts of the operation. Every sibiling is visible at every angle. The restaurant supports 6 different families plus everyone and their families who are employed by the business. Over the years,  the family has had several other restaurants in other suburbs which they grew and ended up selling.  Seven Brothers Restaurant is open seven days a week from 5am to 11pm. They have a room for small parties, memorial serves and funerals and they also do a great take out business. Their menu comes from their previous work experience and from the feedback of the waitresses and customers. They truly take into consideration all of the feedback that is given to them.

Like every restaurant in this economy, they have managed to stay ahead of their competition by lowering their prices and making sure that they're providing quality service by wonderful employees, great food, and two or more of the brothers are always in the restaurant to monitor the operation. Their best advertising is done by word of mouth through their customers.

For Easter, they will be offering, lamb, duck, ribs and other wonderful specialties. They have a great assortment of sweets such as cheesecakes, pies, ice cream and other wonderful sweet creations.

I was able to sample and omelette that was complete with very fresh mushrooms, spinach and cheddar, a small stack of pancakes, hash browns that are freshly made every day and ham that came right off the bone. I also had the wonderful pleasure of trying a strawberry blintz along with a blueberry crepe and a cherry crepe. The blintz and crepes were prepared with absolute care and were devine. The batter of the crepe was delicate and fresh and the fruit sauces were sweet. They were truly the taste of summer. Also, there was a wonderful orange sauce that was included on the side that can be poured generously or very carefully depending on the customers preference. I was truly a treat to be a guest of the Seven Brothers restaurant.

The brothers are so connected with their customers that they carry the little grandkids of the customers to their tables. Betty is one very loyal customer that had the waitresses over for a BBQ which is wonderful indicator of how close the business is with their customers.  The relationship that the Seven Brothers Restuarant has with their customers is like one big happy family. They have a  loyal that includes customers from the south side as well as people who have been coming to their establishment for forty years. Seven Brothers Restaurant is a member of The Greek American Restaurant Association  (GARA).
