People are dunking on you for this but I’ve been to Golden Diner a few times and they’re legit the best pancakes I’ve ever had

No but go to the original pancake house in Hyde park. Yes its a chain but the one in Hyde park is different the pancakes are the best

Guess it depends what you’re looking for, but hanabusa has souffle pancakes and so did Souffle Bites, but I just looked it up to find the name and it says it’s permanently closed. If you’re looking for the syrup on top then I’m not sure

I don’t know if it’s quite the same but M. Henry in Andersonville has really tall fluffy pancakes. I think they call them bliss cakes
Back when I was a piece of shit, me and the boys would go to Truffoni’s for sloppy cakes.

Sadly no recs on literal tall pancakes like this. But if you like stuff like this, you may like Tous Le Jours, a Korean bakery, and Puffy Cakes, a Japanese pancake place.

That’s not a pancake; that’s a casserole.
Looks like Japanese pancakes with extra toppings

In case you wanted to try making them yourself, they published their recipe with New York Times: https://cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/1027064-golden-diner-pancakes
The deep dish of pancakes
Walker brothers, that apple pancake made from scratch…😔
Streets of Woodfield has Japanese pancakes
Fluffy Fluffy in Schaumberg does the souffle pancake. I am sure if you call them, they would consider adding a honey butter flavor.
I don’t care about the rivalry but, those look gross in general to me.
“You want some pancake with that butter?”
[Hanabusa Cafe](https://maps.app.goo.gl/ANHYjYEGpkK58xM57?g_st=ipc) downtown has soufflé if pancakes that’s what this is?

You can make these pancakes at home! The recipe for these pancakes and the umami syrup it comes with were shared by the chef who created them. [Find it here!](https://cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/1027064-golden-diner-pancakes)
The bongo room has similar pancakes.
It’s not Chicago, but deserving of a mention due to their S tier social media game: Judy’s Family Cafe (Galesburg, IL)
Those look good
