“I’ve been wanting to try Dell Rooster and should have much sooner. I love the short rib barbacoa with grits. Pairs very well, delicious, quality meat and a nice portion. The sweetest service from Yolanda and the owner was kind as well. Can’t wait to go back.“

“Had a group meeting and the staff created a 4 course dinner for us. Fantastic selections and service was over the top. Highly recommend if you’re in the neighborhood.“

“OMFG. Amazing food, lovingly prepared and amazingly affordable. Everything about this place is pure good. Omar!!! You give us hope. Keep on keeping on. Your energy and life and curiosity and smile are about as good as it gets.“

“Hip and lively. The host/wait staff are super kind and funny; the downside is the volume of customer is likely what leads to slow service, which is important to some folks. Food tastes great. I ordered the Guatemalan breakfast, which I thought could have come with larger portions of the beans and plantains given the cost. My wife ordered the brisket bowl special and that came with an appropriate, healthy amount of food for the price. The winning order is the beef cheek empanadas with bone marrow. It’s like a beef patty but fattier and way more rich flavor. That’s a 10/10 given it’s only $5. We will certainly come back for the happy hour special (empanadas $3.50 + $8 margs).“

“Highly recommend Azul Mariscos. Loved the atmosphere, good drinks & food was good too. The staff was amazing, especially Ruben. Will definitely be back just for his service ❤️✅“

“Irazu is one of my absolute favorite Chicago restaurants. The quality and unique flavors of their food is something I crave! The Chifrijo and pepito sandwiches are especially amazing and the kindness of their staff is second to none. Tino is a fabulous waiter and Henry is so welcoming and warm! I highly recommend Irazu!

Dietary restrictions: We had a large group and several with dietary restrictions and Tino was so accommodating and sensitive to their needs, and everyone left so satisfied and happy!“

“Amazing experience! The food was great…best steak that I’ve ever had!“

“I found out I had to host Christmas days before the 25th. I can't describe how friendly, helpful and extremely serviceable they were with me placing a catering order only 2 days from Christmas. Since I needed for the 25th, they opened specifically for my order.....Wow!! The service was phenomenal the food was exceptional!! Truly blessed to have them in the neighborhood! Puerto Rican rice, tostones. lechon, ham and potato salad enough for the entire family (25 people) with left overs for the next day. Thank you doesn't seem enough for the owners. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for great food and service. BTW......pistachio coquito......amazing!!!“

“Really tasty, very cute patio, best churro dessert evvvvvver. Glad it’s in the neighborhood. My only feedback (if I’m nitpicking) is that the indoor lighting is kind of overwhelming. But maybe they dim it sometimes? Either way, I’ll definitely be back. :-)“

“Wow! Fantastic food, superb cocktails. My wife and I had the guacamole and stuffed poblano pepper to start and the lamb barbacoa. Absolutely delicious. Isidro, the bartender is a genius mixologist. We were blown away by every cocktail we tasted.“

““I recently dined at La Perla, and it was an absolutely excellent experience from start to finish. The prices were reasonable, especially given the high quality of the food. Every dish was perfectly prepared, fresh, and bursting with flavor. The drinks were equally impressive—well-crafted and paired wonderfully with the meal.

The service was impeccable; our waiter was attentive, friendly, and made sure we had everything we needed. The environment was warm and inviting, creating the perfect atmosphere for a relaxed and enjoyable dining experience. last, but not least, we met the chef He came out and gave us a warm welcome. That was the topping on the icing.

I highly recommend La Perla to anyone looking for a standout restaurant that truly delivers on all fronts!”“

“I moved to Bucktown a year ago and I found this awesome place. The food is delicious and the personnel is very attentive. Perfect for a breakfast with the family or a dinner with friends en Friday night because is BYOB.“

“very good authentic Mexican food!“

“The concept for the menu is a unique trip along the Pan-American highway with stops at various Latin countries. Each dish and drink is thoughtful in its ingredients and presentation. The jicama salad was refreshing, but not at all plain. The pastel de choclo was a wonderful surprise of a warm dish. The frozen el arenal was seriously dangerous in how delicious it was, I can’t recommend it enough. The atmosphere was beautiful and the music was perfect. We are so thrilled to have this gem in the neighborhood and can’t wait to see what they do in the future!“

“Alex and Alicia especially went out of their way to deliver superior service, all through our party's very long stay up until closing. Alicia continued to be super attentive and personable, making great recommendations and helping to make our experience memorable. We'll be back!“

“Amazing experience! The food was great…best steak that I’ve ever had!“

“excellent I love the place“

“Good food good drinks 🍺 real nice place to eat loved it“

“Outstanding! Highly recommended Knowledgeable, friendly staff and incredible experience“

“Customer service is great. I had the roasted chicken and tamales. There were pieces of corn in every bite of the tamale, and the chicken was moist. Do not forget to try a margarita.“

“Casa Yari is the best for vegan food in Chicago...hands down. The menu is creative, delicious and made with love. Yari is an amazing chef and human all around. Her staff, which includes her daughters, is very knowledgeable about the menu and can guide you on what to get if you're a first timer. Every dish is made to order so a little bit of a wait time is to be expected and well worth it. Be sure to check their website for updated rotating menus as well as some restaurant FAQs (i.e. they stop taking orders about 30 min before close) Heads up, brunch is busy so you most likely won't be able to grab your order to go but you are more than welcome to dine in at the bar if you're solo. They also have an amazing N/A cocktail list for those of you that don't drink. This is not a place to miss if you're a true Chicago foodie!“

“This is a family owned restaurant with great drinks and better food. I've tried a handful of dishes there and cleaned my plate every time. Stop reading this and go!

Kid-friendliness: Kid menu was a hit! The kids enjoyed the music as well.“

“Coming from San Francisco, we were hesitant to try Latin food out here. We were glad we gave Cafe Con Leche a chance because it was better than most of the Mexican/Salvadorian food we have in the California. Nice server and very tasty tacos/burritos. Try it!!!!“

“Loved the food and coffee! Great place for a nice coffee in the afternoon or to work on your laptop. I tried the ham and cheese empanada, beignets, and Cuban sandwiches! The coffee was also great!“

“The food and the drinks are delicious. 😋“

“Amazing food. My first time trying Cuban food and it exceeded my expectations. They had great service. Will definitely be going back to try more. A must try!“

“Best experience, todos los jueves de música en vivo a partir de las 9pm“

“I’ve been to Brasero twice now - delicious and such a blast both times! A fantastic wine list and the food is to die for.

The noodles, prawns, branzino, endive salad, cheese bread, ceviche and more were delicious. I can’t wait to go back again.

You have to get the prawns and ask for sourdough to dip in the extra sauce. Sooo good!! I wish they did delivery - I would order delivery for it since it was so yummy.“

“Had an amazing meal here last night. There were four of us and we each ordered a different entree so we can have a taste of each entree. We started with ceviche and empanadas. So delicious! Then our meals came…. And OMG! Each entree was so different and amazing! Everything is made from scratch sauces dressings etc. We ended the meal with the dessert and all tried something different. Everything we eat was incredible! The restaurant is so warm and cozy… the same feeling I got from ourmeal. It’s BYOB so bring your favorite drink and try this place. I promise you… you will not be disappointed!“

“Here we truly find the flavor of our country. Friendly and effective service. Affordable prices today that everywhere they charge exaggeratedly. If you want to remember your country through gastronomy, this is the place! Recently the exquisite colada morada with its bread.“

“Delicious food! family ambiance impeccable service, Alejandra is the best waiter ever ?“

“Delicious, the onion just like the gye one, the fish, everything, the wadding a 9.5/10 because obviously they don't use the same branches but the lemon makes it precise, the delicious quacker like the one your grandmother makes, the incredible attention, I am very happy, they serve it as they serve you there, delicious and delicious ?? “

“I had a very nicely served meal with my boyfriend. We went to eat a dinner plate with Skirt Steak, rice, and black beans. I really loved the guacamole flavor 😋. All the food very tasty and delicious 😋. I would like to complainant my waitress Diana. She did a very good job with our service. I would recommend the Quetzal Restaurant to family and friends. I will score a 100’/, to Quetzal Restaurant.“

“When I entered the shop I was confused at first whether they have any food besides the cookies and coffee presented at the bar. The bartender was very friendly and politely told me about the place and what they offer. I was surprised they were open since the google timetable was showing it should be closed at that time in the morning.
The place smells great, as in high end clothing stores and in addition to that I really liked the Julius Meinl coffee and the empanada. It was full of flavourful meat. The sauce accompanying it was delicious addition. As I am writing this I decided to go and have one tomorrow morning 🤤“

“The food is great! This is my husband's and my favorite place to eat at anytime of the day. We love it. The service is also very good. The Chef/Owner comes out to greet and make sure everyone is content. Highly recommend it!“

“Discovered this place on Instagram and I’ve tried MANY places but this is a little gem of great food! Loved the Don Pedro sandwich and cafe con leche. Dessert is also something to try! Give your taste buds the pleasure to enjoy good flavor. You won’t be disappointed.“

“Absolutely delicious, healthy, hearty and filling food. I've only been here twice this month and the menu is extensive and the prices extremely moderate for the quantity and quality you receive.

Last week I tried their lunch special which was a beef stew over rice ? and a salad ? next to it on the same gigantic plate. All the lunch specials are accompanied by a large bowl ? if homemade soup. The broth was very rich chicken ? broth with small round pieces of corn ? meal floating inside. The chicken itself is quite generous in portion and you might find a little bone so be careful and eat slowly ?

The server is extremely friendly and offers some good suggestions. He brings you a basket filled with fried plantain chips and two dips.

Today I chose the garbanzo ? ? ? salade and an order of 2 cheese ? empanadas with an inca cola.

The salad is a perfect size for lunch. My server initially warned me it's not too tiny and not too grande but honestly of you want my opinion it's a very healthy option and quite filling because it comes with freshly sliced avocados ? some onions ? chickpeas and tomatoes ? and is big enough as a main lunch course.

The atmosphere here is so welcoming, cozy and peaceful. The seating is comfortable like your in someone's private home kitchen. I definitely recommend this Ecuadorian Ristorante both for the quality of ingredients and the extremely clean and cozy environment.“

“Simple, the food is outstanding...“

“Good 10/10. AMAZING 🤩 🤩🤩🤩“

“Lechón Jibarito was amazing! The lechón was delicious along with the arroz con gandules. We also had the fried tilapia and ropa vieja jibarito. All is ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.“

“Stopped in with a friend and was very impressed. The man working the counter was very friendly, the food was AMAZING, and it was very reasonably priced especially considering how delicious it was. The sauce was also great and was included with each empanada. Will hopefully be returning!“

“Concha French toast highly recommended 🔥“

“Tasty food and Excellent service. We loved the Sancocho de res and the Sandwich de plátano con carne.“

“This one beautiful place I will be coming back“
