Roux

Super GemHyde Park · New Orleans/Breakfast Community-sourced, unverified
📍 1055 E 55th St, Chicago, IL 60615

Roux (also listed as Roux Diner) is chef Charlie McKenna's all-day New Orleans-inspired breakfast, lunch, and dinner spot in Hyde Park.

The beignets are the dessert people order as an appetizer, and the fried chicken salad is the unexpectedly perfect lunch that came out of a brunch spot.

The pastry case up front features a gigantic cinnamon roll, and cinnamon rolls and pecan pie French toast are frequently praised alongside beignets and Sunday brunch's hot chicken and waffles.
