BREAKFAST! Dude, why did you never tell me? I've been exploring breakfasts in the Cities with my uncle since college.
Hit up the Bad Waitress some time. I took Hypatia there, so you can get her opinion. The Band Box, just south of Downtown and just off of Chicago, is a classic diner with good food and attitude. At the 48th and Chicago cluster is the Chicago Deli (closest I've found to my house) which is very decent. Soba's (about a block north of the Sunnyside on Lyndale) is a little different but still tasty. There's also the Egg & I, just south of the Sunnyside (they've another location at 280 and University - it's ingridsummers favorite), and I've found them dependably delicious.
Have you been to Al's Breakfast? Oh, man. It's an experience and often a hassle, but also usually well worth the trouble. It's over in Dinkytown. There's also a place that I just noticed serving breakfast in Stadium Village (another University 'hood), the Manhattan Loft. Haven't had a chance to check them out yet.
And if you really want to do it up and don't mind the price tag, check out Hell's Kitchen downtown. They get crazy busy, and I don't remember if they take reservations on the weekends, but damn, they've got a breakfast.
