“Great vibe and good food lover of the crab legs“

“I am late writing my review but I had to write it !! I visited provare chicago On july 8th !! From start to finish this restaurant gets 5 starts . The decor was nice and set a perfect atmosphere for a great night . We were greeted immediately upon arrival and seated within 5 minutes of being there . Once seated the wait staff began their introduction's on drinks and popular menu item's. After my party ordered drinks and appetizers a gentleman came over (not sure if he was the manager) and introduce himself and made sure we were having a great experience. Appetizers were amazing!! We couldn't wait for dinner!! Our entrées we just as good if not better ! Everything was cooked and seasoned to perfection! When we didn't think the night could get even better the entire wait staff and the gentleman that came over before stopped and recognized my friend for her birthday and brought over a birthday surprise!! I live 307 miles and this place was definitely worth the drive !!!“

“BEST SEAFOOD BOIL IN THE CITY

and I mean it. I’ve tried more than my fair share of seafood boils in the Chicagoland area. I must say, there is always something that makes or breaks the meal. Whether it’s the vibe. The freshness and quality of the seafood. Or the biggest factor for me, the price.

Oh my Crab definitely blew all of my expectations out of the water. The seafood boil was fresh and flavorful. The hush puppies came with a very intriguing sauce, one that makes you want to come back the next day for more. Each of the servers were very nice, treat my friend and I with kindness.

Overall I would rate this a 10/10 seafood boils spot ! Definitely worth it if you’re looking to satisfy your boil cravings without breaking the bank!!“

Food came out hot and well seasoned. We even met the chef. The Playlist was a whole vibe. Oh and I can't the cocktails will get you right. We will definitely come back.“

“We had the best time here! Very friendly staff! Great food as well ! Our waitress was amazing!!! thank you for ending are stay here in chicago on a great note!“

“I just walked out of the door and am so glad that God sent us there. We tried 3 places prior to walking in CheSa’s doors which was a definite blessing. We had the catfish skillet, bourbon peach cobbler franchise toast, chicken sausage and scrabbles eggs w/cheese washed down with a breakfast martini. Absolutely delicious and with the owner/chef being very warm w/great hospitality. We’re definitely going back.“

“Such great service (Alex) and food! Fantastic time and we were a large group.“

“Cozy cafe with an admirable dedication to reducing waste and in particular plastic coffee cup usage. I really appreciated the stainless steel, freezing cold cup for my iced coffee. Sandwich was very bland and overall disappointing for the price paid, which was excessive. Coffee was decent, service was quick and efficient, and it was a fun place to hangout for 30 minutes.“

“They recently updated their menu I noticed pasta fried catfish and one day I even noticed a seafood boil coming from the kitchen 🤷🏽‍♂️🥳👏“

“Was driving past and saw a Jamaican flag in the window so I turned around. Thank God I did the food is so good ya'll I had the lamb, spinach and mashed potatoes. I'm still outside the restaurant in my car posting this cause the food is gone already!! An amazing Shout out to the owner miss tanya and her staff a wealth of knowledge a true blessing. Also thank you to Mario from Goebbarts farms for serenading me with live music while I waited!!“

“Update: It's s probably been 2 or so years since I've been in. Was in the neighborhood and had to stop in for nostalgia. Service is just as good as I remember and the food is still top notch! Shrimp Po boy and the wings tasted like I remember. Love the addition of the On Trend: Fire : It Slaps cocktail menu.

Excellent craft beer selection beyond just IPA's. Food has been consistently solid for the 7+ years I've been coming here.“

“YOOOO the gilty pig is insane! They have "popped up" at my farm a few times now, and each time I am amazed by the flavors and complexity they bring to "simple dishes". They take a brat and turn it into a full asian inspired meal. Now if the food wasnt enough, this truck could not be run by two better people. They deserve all of the awesome things that are coming their way. Keep killin it, guys!“

“Picked up a catering order yesterday that was phenomenal.“

“Very nice place to take the family or date. Food and drinks was very good! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“I rated them a 5 for customer service. We ordered takeout on Fat Tuesday. They were very busy that evening and made a mistake in our order. When I called Gabe, the Manager, was extremely apologetic. He removed the items from our tab and personally drove to our home with the correct order. He also added a giant piece of carrot cake. Apart from appreciating the customer service, the food was good. We especially enjoyed the VooDoo Shrimp and the Alligator Po’
boy. We are looking forward to ordering from there again!“

“Fatso's Last Stand, always rated among the top 10 hot dogs stands in Chicago by various food critics, has its flagship restaurant at 2258 West Chicago Avenue in Ukrainian Village and a newer location, which is much more convenient to me, at 1982 North Clybourn, at Armitage, in Clybourn Commons, in the Lincoln Park neighborhood. Open from 11 to 8 daily for pickup or delivery, it is a neighborhood snack bar that advertises Chicago's best char-grilled hot dogs and other delicious comfort food items that keeps customers coming back for more and more, like chili dogs, char grilled or griddled smashed Fatso burgers, Cleo's home-made chili with onions, sour cream and cheddar cheese, Maxwell Street style Polish sausage with mustard and grilled onions, Fatso's jumbo fried shrimp, mac and cheese and milk shakes with such flavors as chocolate, banana, Oreo, strawberry, vanilla, mint chip and Reese's peanut butter. But have you tried theSuper Ooey Gooey, Fatso's latest two-fisted creation? It is two smash beef patties stuffed with applewood smoked bacon, Merkt's cheddar cheese and giardiniera topped with Fatso sauce, tomato, lettuce and onion. Of course, you can't pass up Fatso's signature item, the char dog, served Chicago-style with mustard, relish, onion, tomato, sport peppers and celery salt. And the char-grilled Fatso burger served on a toasted bun with Fatso sauce, lettuce, tomato, onion and applewood smoked bacon. With home-made fresh cut fries. Wash it all down with a chocolate milk shake. Or two of them.“

“The first time I tried CHAR CRUST I was given a sample packet of the Hickory flavor and tried it on a ribeye steak, hands down best steak I've ever eaten, the Char Crust complimented the steak and not over powered it. The next day I placed an order on Amazon, since then I have purchased the Chipotle flavor and seasoned a freshly graded hashbrown Omelette. I can't wait to try the rest of the seasonings from Char Crust. If you haven't tried it yet please order some today It's Goat Lipping. Thanks,Big Al“

“Happy I came into this restaurant, This is my first time visiting Illinois. I arrived during happy hour, this spot was a glowing gem. I was greeted and seated quickly, the ambiance in the building was pleasant and calming the music was fitting and relaxing! I ordered multiple items, really was on a budget but the taste of the food I originally ordered was too good to not leave without getting the meal I was craving for a few days I ordered crab fried rice, pomegrate cocktail, peach lychee tea (non alcohol), I also ordered an happy hour boil! The food was amazing, full of flavor and cooked well done! I received a cute bib that read im too cute to be crabby which lit up my day! Would highly recommend!“

“They have the best shrimp and grits! When they are at the CCDOC I know it's going to be a good day!“

“Born and raised in Brooklyn, NY. I was told there isn't an Haitian restaurant in Chicago. Well that's a lie. I found this one. Food was great. Owners were very warm welcoming.“

“Surfs Up Maywood made my day! 😊 The food was made fresh to order. I had their shrimp 🍤 and Hennessy Chicken Wings. The customer service was really good. The Hennessy sauce was absolutely amazing I'm chicken drunk lol 😂 Seriously tho such a great a pleasant and great experience. Love the heathy alternative options too. I will definitely be coming back.“

“The bartender Bryan (handsome bald white man) was amazing ❤️ I had a great early dinner the music was good and the honey hot wings and buffalo chicken rolls were fresh and flavorful. Strawberry marg was so good I finished before the food came.“
