“Great food and a fun atmosphere!“

“Been to Jenny's about 10 times and they never disappoint. Brought my fiance here for the 1st time and have been here 2 tines within the month. She loves it. We live in Indiana and pass many steakhouses to come here.“

“When heading towards Beverly for a property management home inspection, I wanted to find a local coffee joint that I could get a coffee and a snack of some sort. Afro Joe's was calling to me. Walking in, greeted warmly, the adventure began. If you haven't been, check the menu before you go because you will want to order one of each item! Since it was my first time, most certainly NOT the last, I needed a lifeline. Charmaine to the rescue. I don't know if I manifested or she read my mind , but when I asked which sandwich I should order instantly , she said the short rib! Boom! Done. Next up, a drink choice. Again I was not led astray. The option was a blueberry lavender cold brew topped with rose cold foam. As she was suggesting the option, Charmaine lifted the one she was drinking and again instantly sold. No chocolate croissant available since it was later in the morning but the chocolate morning roll was there and three for three, the order was placed. I already know that I have to come back, time and time again.Just walking in such a chill vibe , perfect music, everyone tables either working or chatting with a friend. The open kitchen invites you to see the hustle and bustle. The garage doors roll up onto the patio for warmer days and what appears to be local art work adorns the walls. When I tell you, this is absolutely no exaggeration, every item was on point! The short rib was so flavor forward eith the bite of picked onions, there was a side of diced pickles and onions too. Also a hit. The warm bun had some fruit nestled in its chocolatey tummy, flakes and moist with the richness of cocoa. And for the latte, cold, sweet and the flavors all complimented each other so well. I did opt for whole milk because, why not?!? I had one too many client emails and texts to be able to enjoy grabbing a book from the shelf but note, they even had the sharpest of colored pencils to doodle or write a note with. I have not one complaint, well, maybe one, I wish they were in my neighborhood because this would be a staple place to visit regularly! Until we meet again and I can get my hands on a chocolate croissant next...or any one of the other of their baked goods. Support your Local Black Owned Businesses!“

“Me and the GF had the Cruel Summer and the Expresso Milk Shake. They were both so good! Can’t wait to try others! Great place has a lot of outdoor seating as well.“

“I have been purchasing the Hard Scrabble espresso coffee beans from Whole Foods for several years and it is my favorite bean locally roasted. Visiting the shop was a great experience, having them make the same espresso shot that I make at home and it did not disappoint. We love the extra space for hanging out in the back too. Lastly, these prices appear to be from when they opened many years ago! Thank you for your efforts to keep coffee affordable!!“

“Truly lives up to the hype. I've been wanting to try this bakery for a long time since everyone says it has the best tres leches and I've had tres leches from many bakeries but this truly is the best tres leches in Chicago and probably the best I've had. We tried the mango and Oreo ones and the Oreo one was truly delicious! The mango one tasted a little too sweet for me and I wish it had a stronger mango flavor but still really but the Oreo one was incredible! I highly recommend trying that one. The owner was also there and chatted with us and talked about the other flavors as well. Will try those next time we visit!“

“Runaway Cow is the best so delicious 🤤🤤 try the fluffernutter it's my favorite so yummy“

“Everything on the menu is fabulous I recently ordered grecian steak. The quality of the meat dont compare to even the fancy overpriced meat at these big name steak house. It was tender juicy seasoned just enough to enjoy the real flavor of the meat. It was enough for 4 meals. And the price is unbelievably right“

“Best Hot Dogs in Chicago! I drive from Indiana just for a Mighty Dog!“

“Found metal in my food and the staff was Very Rude about it!“

“OMG! We found this place on a whim, looking for GF in Oak Lawn for last minute lunch options. Stumbled upon this GEM! I am no vegan, but the flavor profile is so spot on. Casandra was so amazing, putting together a random taco tray that was so delicious! And A+++ for presentation! Thank you Abuelita Coco, we will be back :)“

“Good service great flavors“

“Great experience! The staff was incredibly friendly and patient while I took my time deciding what to order. They made me feel welcome and never rushed me. The pizza was delicious, and the excellent customer service made the visit even better. Their tacos is a must 10/10. I’ll definitely be back!“

“First time I've ever been and it was great. Had the sliders, some boneless wings, and some flavored cheese planks. The service was good, and my server was pleasant. The atmosphere is takeout with some seating areas. Will definitely visit this place frequently to try the rest of the menu.“

“Back when I lived in the area, Irish Times had just opened and I stopped in to have a Guinness. Now, I have had Guinness all over the Chicago area and never has a Chicago pint ever approached the magical, otherworldly flavor of a pint consumed in Ireland. I don't know if it's the water, the proximity to the brewery or just some kind of strange magic that happens to Guinness in Ireland, but I've never had better. That all changed when I drank that first pint at Irish Times. It was easily the best pint of Guinness I've had outside the Emerald Isle. I've since left the area and have had pints all over the United States and Canada. Nothing has approached the quality, freshness and taste of the Guinness at Irish Times in Brookfield. If you are lucky enough to be nearby, don't hesitate to make a detour to the pub. You will not regret it.“

Marc was one of the people who helped make our lunch so enjoyable, thank you Marc and team! We do not live in this town but will be bringing my family back soon! Thanks for the great experience!“

“Our family absolutely loves Bb's donuts! We do miss being able to go inside the donut shop. So many wonderful memories taking our little girl there to eat donuts and read a book or two. We have a little boy with Autism and it's not safe for him to sit in front by the busy street because he runs. Wish we could go inside to enjoy donuts & coffee knowing it's something our son would truly enjoy.“

“If you like Chai this is the place to be. It is THE BEST Chai tea I’ve ever had and I’m a conisour of chai…the owner is always there upbeat and friendly the staff are all friendly and chat I definitely recommend this coffee lounge!!“

“Yesterday I took the Sourdough Breadmaking Class with Chef George at The Ancestral Oven and I just pulled an amazing loaf of bread out of my home oven 24 hours later! Chef George provided all the necessary instruction and supplies - including a lively starter - for students to start their own sourdough journey at home. The class included hands-on experience feeding the starter, as well as folding and shaping the dough. I had a great time at the class and can't wait to return to try out the breakfast and lunch menu at The Ancestral Oven Bakery and Cafe.“

“Peppo's came through for our unit when we needed to feed an entire squad! This was our first time with Peppo's and it was great! We definitely will be ordering from here again.“

“Great bartenders with a great atmosphere.“

“Thanks for the vegan offerings. My family and I enjoyed our meals very much. Super tasty!!!“

“Teresa was outstanding great atmosphere“

“Absolutely delicious. The owner was friendly and as soon as we came in many people came in after us. Definitely worth checking out. Better for takeout since its a small spot but the amount of food you get is insane. So worth it!! 🔥🔥☝🏼“

“I've been here several times in the past and I really love their food selections. However this time the service was not very friendly and the booths are getting to look very shabby. They are stained and need to be reupholstered. Doesn't make me want to go there again any time soon“

“Finally got to come and visit Betty's ice cream. We were not disappointed. Very affordable. Just for 1 classic banana split, 3 banana split cups, 1 classic vanilla cone just a little over 35 bucks. Not to mention the chocolate covered bananas and milkshake shakes, spot on 👌.“

“Fabulous atmosphere, killer "naked" wings, tunes, and staff. Highly recommend.“

“Food is always excellent!“

“I've gone to Vinces for over 20 years, and I can honestly say it never disappoints. From the moment you walk in, you feel like part of the family. You are always greeted with a smiling face and the smells alone will keep you coming back for more. The pizza here is consistently incredible. Perfectly thin crust, just the right amount of sauce, and loaded with toppings that can fit any craving. With the number of years, I have been visiting, I have tried almost everything on the menu from their pizza to their pastas to their appetizers and I keep on going back. I have even hosted parties that have said the same. Not often you find a place that keeps tradition alive with the highest quality, but Vinces makes it happen every day. See everyone soon. Thank you Vinces you are a neighborhood treasure.“

“one of the best dining experiences I've ever had!! food tasted great, customer service was great, extra clean (everywhere), owner, bartender, and chef made sure everything tasted great and was ok. I highly recommend and will be back!“

“Fresh delicious food, good ambiance and friendly service! Thanks, Nora!“

“1st time. Service was very good and friendly. Guy with the black curly hair super nice. Food was good. Had salad, soup, and a latte. Will be back.“

“If you’re looking for a variety of delicious pan(Mexican sweet bread) and cafe(coffee) or tea, this is a ONE STOP SHOP!
They serve the smoothest cold brew and richest cafe de olla!
Now— “early bird gets the worm” as they sell out fast(bread.)
They are open later than most local cafes(6 pm) and have the BEST team. Not only are they phenomenal with drink recommendations but the customizations they cater towards their customers provides the best quality of coffee you can experience!
Anything and everything you can think of they might have. If not, ask for a recommendation; I can almost BET you will not be disappointed!“

“Our first time there and we loved our Biscoff edible cookie dough and the Snickerdoodle flavor was yummy too.
The employees are friendly and helpful.
Decor is fantastic. You feel like you’re on a tropical beach.
Will definitely be stopping in anytime we’re nearby to try everything….because it all looks delicious.“

“Enjoyed the brisket taco 🌮 and wine yummy chips and salsa 😋“
