“Nice dinning room, and great staff. Every dish was great tasting. We had a party of 12 and they did great.“

“The nicest Panera I have been all my vacation.

I joined Sips club and went on a tour of the country. This was the nicest and cleanest Panera by far. Everything well stocked, restroom clean, upholstery on the booths well maintained.

Would definitely come back here if I were passing through.“

“Came to Bloom for my birthday dinner with a couple friends and we were all blown away. Bloom gave me a complimentary ube cheesecake for dessert with a birthday candle, so sweet. We tried a ton of stuff, I think the whipped feta, arrancini, cheese plate, and Besitos de yucca. I didn’t order the Yucca Gnocci before the kitchen closed so I didn’t get to try that but everything we had was amazing. Loved the sangria and birds of a feather cocktails too!“

“Tapsilog, tocilog, fried fish, halo halo.“

“Wonderful restaurant. Food was excellent very close to what I had in Rome. Staff very friendly and made our dining very enjoyable! Go here!!“

“my best friend and I just had the BEST experience at the whale! Our waitress taylor was incredible and the manager (so sorry but we never got his name because he was just being so nice to us) was incredible as well. We will definitely return with friends and recommend anyone to try it out! classy, but not snobby, cool decor, warm kind and accommodating staff, and great food and cocktails are just the cherry on top! try the carrot cake after your meal :) Thank you again to taylor and the manager again <3“

“**Honey Bear Restaurant Review** ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Honey Bear Restaurant in Chicago is a must-visit! Our experience was exceptional, thanks to our amazing waitress, Ella, who met every need of our table with warm hospitality and genuine care. The food was absolutely delicious—especially the fried chicken and collard greens! The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, making it the perfect spot for a family meal. If you’re in the area, don’t miss out on this gem! Thank you, Ella, for making our visit unforgettable!“

“As Islanders living here, this place is a piece of of home. Onolicious grinds!“

“Ate there for the first time tonight. I am vegan and my husband is an Omni. Chef Bill came out and waited on us personally, and gave us menu recommendations, all of which were delicious! The ambiance was so relaxing and peaceful; it was a nice respite from a busy day and I didn’t want to leave. Reasonably priced as well: shared appetizer, two teas, two entrees, and two desserts was $60. Will definitely be back for many more dinners!“

“Thank you Fernando and Ismael at 5 rabanitos!! Great food, great drinks and great service. Can’t wait to go back!“

“The vegan donuts were amazing. My 10 year old son, who has a dairy and egg allergy, was able to experience a donut for the first time! The staff was very friendly and the old school arcade games were an added bonus. We'll be back on our next trip to Chicago!“

“I'm from Iowa, took a little weekend trip to Chicago. A friend told us we HAD to try Lula's. SO thankful we did. I will be traveling back to Chicago just to take my mom here. Outstanding service from every single employee, incredible food, and just overall 10/10. Absolutely recommend.“

“Wow, this place is AMAZING? Great service, hopping atmosphere, and every single one of our dishes were delicious. We will be making this establishment a regular breakfast place during our Chicago visits! Food ordered was: Breakfast burrito Croissant Sandwich Buttermilk pancakes with a side of crispy bacon!“

“Went here last week. Amazing salad bar. Delicious dessert. Had the cake de tres leches. The service is second to none.“

“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.“

“Amazing food! Adorable atmosphere! The kindest staff! I can’t wait to come back and bring my husband. Amazing French food😍“

“Absolutely fantastic food.... There was a guy playing the piano on the East side of the restaurant. They also have outside dining if you want that. Everything was top notch. Turkish coffee martini was so so good.... I've never had one before but will def remember this one.“

“Service was amazing and ice cream was excellent! We went without reading reviews with our 3 year old. He doesn’t scare easily, but the super loud music and scary animal farm theme was… a lot. Just not what I normally expect at an ice cream “shoppe” (shoppe with that spelling always has a quant vibe), with quotes on the walls about dead humans and such. Clearly a lot of love goes into the decor, and I’m not tucking anyone else’s yum- hence the five stars. But I did worry that the mannequins and paintings might give a young kid some nightmares. Fortunately he mostly looked at the ceiling, which is a super cool cloudscape. So, yeah. Amazing service, ice cream, and super friendly… just feels at odds with the decor.“

“Great place to invest in your health & a great tasting meal. I’m a regular now.“

“The food is amazing and the customer service is next to none“

“These are fantastic! I'm always so excited when they're at a market I'm near. I buy extra as they heat up very well so don't hesitate to buy more. The pastry is perfect, the fillings divine.“

“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.“

“The pierogi holiday meal is simply amazing! Soooo good!“

“The deep dish was extremely good. The crust was a combination of tender, chewy and crunchy. The tomatoes were superbly seasoned, great cheese pull…friendly staff.“

“Great service and delicious food;)“

“Delicious food. Great service.“

“Came in looking for a favorite Tan Tan Men most similar to the taste of which we had in Tokyo. Menya Goku’s Tan Tan Men taste essentially identical to it and I’m glad to have a local restaurant that replicates the true taste of an amazing Tan Tan Men. Amazing service and environment and will return again.“

“Delicious 😋 food！ Warm and kind service ! Cozy atmosphere 😊 !“

“Someone did an adorable job decorating the space, the food was delicious, but the service could use some fine tuning. We had chips/salsa and elotes for the table, and we all loved the salsa. The fresh chips were delicious. Everyone's got their own take, and the elotes were also good, but another slice of lime would have been a great addition to the plate. A breakfast burrito, with steak, one red and one green chilaquiles later, and we all liked our brunch.“

“Enjoyed my first Hot Toddy here!!“

“lmpromtu Monday night dinner with my son and went to Gather..100% all the way! Excellent food and service. Cannot wait to try the brunch which looks amazing!“

“The best! 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰😍“

“After a mishap with their online ordering system, the owner went above and beyond to make sure I still had a vegan meal for Christmas and my birthday! I live out of town but usually order every time I visit my sister in Chicago. I've never had any complaints, but I'm very grateful for this particular meal that I get to eat tomorrow. Thank you, Kitchen 17!“

“amazing food and great tea! I will definitely be back“

“SBK is everything… the pastries and cookies are so delicious, always a decadent treat. The savory sandwiches, so flavorful with house made sauces in the mix. Weekends start off right with an SBK pizza on a Friday night. I’ve been coming here for years. During Covid, SBK became my local grocery store. One of my favorite establishments in Chicago, I will always be a fan.“

“Wonderful staff and amazing food. I’ll definitely be back! 🌱“

“We had a delicious breakfast and the service was Excellent. Looking forward to coming back for lunch and mock tails.“
