From the Chicago Reader (www.chicagoreader.com): "Despite cheerful new murals of sailboats on Lake Michigan and scenes from a South Side park, the [since 1921] Valois – that's "vuh-loyz" – still feels institutional. And that's part of its appeal."
No alcohol available. Serving breakfast, lunch and dinner daily.
"... a greasy, homestyle diner tucked between a video store and a health food shop, where elderly black men hold court at postage stamp-sized tables. The President's ... favorite – scrambled eggs, hash browns and sausage (or bacon, if you insist) – has been renamed the Obama Breakfast, although he orders it 'to go' now."
– Michael Y. Park, The New York Times, Dec. 21, 2008
