1 Loretta… 2 Loretta… 3 Loretta… 4! Who’s counting? We sure aren’t! There’s just something about a Sarkis Loretta that keeps you coming back for more. One is never enough. Two sounds even better. And by four? Well, we’re not here to judge.

How many Lorettas have YOU had over the years? A little Sarkis tradition since 1965.

Chicago lost a legend today. Mike Ditka was more than a football coach. He was Chicago. Tough, passionate, larger than life, and one of a kind. For those of us who remember the '85 Bears, there was nothing quite like the excitement he brought to this city. He gave Chicago something to believe in, something to celebrate, and memories that will last forever. Here at Sarkis, we've been part of the Chicagoland community for more than 60 years. We've seen a lot of Chicago history, but there will never be another Da Coach. Our thoughts are with the Ditka family and all the Bears fans mourning his loss. Rest in peace, Coach. Thanks for the memories. Once a Chicago legend, always a Chicago legend.

Some things you just never outgrow. Our Mickey Mouse pancakes have been making kids smile at Sarkis for years. Bring the kids. Bring the grandkids. Or go ahead and order one for yourself., we won’t judge. Getting to watch one generation grow up and come back with the next is one of our very favorite parts of being Sarkis.

There’s just something about a weekend at Sarkis. Good food, familiar faces, a little chaos, and probably a Loretta or two coming out of the kitchen. Come hungry. We’ll take care of the rest.

Football is back… which means weekends just got better. You bring the team colors. We’ll handle the important stuff — hash browns, Lorettas, Disasters, and plenty of coffee. Whether you’re celebrating a win, recovering from a loss, or just here because somebody said Sarkis, we’ve got you covered. Who are you rooting for this season?

A lot changes when school starts back up. New teachers, new roommates, new routines — maybe even a whole new school. But some things don’t have to change. Your favorite table. Your usual order. That Loretta you’ve been thinking about all summer. And Sarkis. We’ve been part of back-to-school seasons for generations. Classes change. Years change. You grow up. Sarkis is still Sarkis. Welcome back. We saved you a seat.

Well… that was a longer break than we planned on here. The good news? Sarkis hasn’t gone anywhere. We’ve been right here doing what we do best — slinging hash, making Disasters, and serving Lorettas. We’ve got some catching up to do… so keep an eye on us. You never know what we might let you in on next.

Today, we pause to remember September 11, 2001, and honor the lives lost, the families forever changed, and the brave first responders and everyday heroes who showed extraordinary courage.
We remember. We honor. We will never forget.

WE’RE THINKING ABOUT DOING SOMETHING A LITTLE… SECRET.
What if Sarkis had a SECRET MENU? You know… the kind of menu you don’t get unless you know someone. We’re talking off-the-menu creations, old-school Sarkis favorites, weird-but-amazing combinations, and maybe a few things that should probably never be written down.
