Hidden little gem in the heart of the loop off of Michigan ave, really kind staff. The pros: this place has a dedicated vegan menu that tells you what’s in everything.
My vegan pan con bistec honestly left a lot to be desired, very little flavor or seasoning, the sandwich is also very small for $15. The $17 plates are Much more food, I’d come back and try the salsichon platillo. Very good little grab-a-bite place, either to go or to eat in.
                
            Ate here twice while staying at the hostel. Everything was very good! Got a Cubano to-go my first night. Next morning got a parfait (which is huge), a Chimichurri breakfast sandwich (also huge), and a cafe con leche. Sat and ate and did some work.
They're almost always busy, but they keep up pretty well. I think they're too busy to be overly nice but they're nice enough.
Also got a piece of tres leches cake as I was leaving...

Best sandwich place. Best place to eat around here. Great staff. Great coffee. I have lived in the area for awhile and this is the only place I don't get tired of. Chivito Sandwich is so good.
