“I seriously love this place. I would come everyday if I could! I may just start because they’re so amazing. Their treats are guilt-free, low calorie, high protein, and FILLING. Not only that, they taste amazing and always have different specials with many different products to try!! I love their donuts and iced coffee. It really helps when those bad sweet cravings hit. This is a much better option. They have great customer service too. The family who owns it is so sweet! I am seriously so happy this place exists!“
“Gone here a couple of times for a sweet lunch treat. All the women I’ve interacted with have been kind and sweet. And they’ve answered all my questions that I had about the drinks. Favorite drink I’ve tried my far is the Mango Milk Cloud, absolutely “
“Fantastic place to spend a few hours with friends! Got the 6-person Turkish Coffee set, and we had a great time sitting around a table and chatting while waiting on a layover flight. Owners are super friendly and super accommodating of needs. I'm definitely coming back the next time I'm in town!“
“This is my new favorite spot in La Grange! It is located east of Noodles and Co. on Calendar. It is quite small, but a great place to pick up healthy smoothies and bowls. Most things are dairy free, or vegan. I particularly love their soups! Try them out. The staff is also extremely friendly.“

“Their Italian ice is the best we've tried by far. It's very flavorful, perfect texture and refreshing.So far I've tried strawberry, lemon, grape and lime. All are excellent. I can't wait to try the other flavors.After trying Little Lulu's Ice, I finally understand why people get so excited about Italian ice. This is far superior to others I've tried.“
“Awesome place for smoothies and frozen yogurt , haven’t had a bad experience in the year I been going , always has the freshest fruit and everything is clean and on point , definitely recommend to anyone , owner is super nice and easy going as “
“The Oreo milkshake I fell in love since I'm an Oreo fan lover! I appreciate the workers there were giving me recommendations of different milkshakes. Will be coming back once the warm weather arrives to try out their refresher and smoothies.“
“It is great to find a vegan friendly restaurant so close to Elk Grove Village. Vegan shakes, chips, wraps, salads, desserts and cheesecake. Let me tell you what do the vegan chipotle in a spinach is my go to. Also great customer service.Vegetarian options: Clearly label vegan dishes“
“Nice little neighborhood place. The hours are odd so you have to check if they are open. I think they close mon-wed. I found this place looking for queso birria tacos. For $15 you get 4 decent sized tacos with the consommé. Great meaty tacos, I'm a big guy and I usually could knock out 8-10 tacos. I could only eat 6 here. The guacamole was big enough for me and my buddy. They have a juice bar inside and we ordered off of the server's recommendation. She recommended a pineapple drink and it was solid. We ended up getting a second order of drinks for the road. They don't have parking but you should be able to find something across the street. Place is clean and the cook wore gloves. I appreciate when a place is clean and people are wearing gloves. The waitress/server was very helpful and had great recommendations. She was easy to talk to since I don't speak Spanish. There was a bunch of online orders and takeout which in my opinion is good. That means there's no old food, they sell it all and buy fresh. Bathrooms were clean. I noticed the table next to me ordered a latte and seen they had an espresso machine. I haven't tried the coffee so I can't talk about the quality. Just that they have an espresso machine. I like this place a lot. Very friendly staff, great food and great amount of food for the price. Looking forward to my next visit. Thank you.“
“The perfect to spot to grab something delicious and healthy on the go! Every menu item I have tried is so good! My favorites are the sunset bowl, the protein donuts and white chocolate resses protein shake and the Skittles Lit Tea ?Damaris is always kind and caring!“

“"Hey everyone! I recently had the chance to try the strawberry ice cream at Rita's, and let me tell you, it was absolutely amazing! ?? The flavor was so rich and creamy, and you could really taste the freshness of the strawberries. The staff was super friendly and helped me pick the perfect flavor. If you're a fan of strawberry ice cream, you definitely need to give Rita's a try. Trust me, you won't be disappointed! ♥️“
“Took my son here to try a boba drink. With the help of a little girl who frequents the shop, she suggested getting the strawberry aid with strawberry popping Boba and it was so good! The popping Boba taste like strawberries when they pop! We also tried the Korean corn dog with hot Cheetos Topping- delicious!!“
“A bright, friendly environment for postlift quick shake/meal.All the menu options I've tried were delicious and you can't sleep on the waffles.Macronutrient conscious options across the whole menu.Friendly staff in a cozy space.The location is hard to see if you're not looking for it but if you are a gymrat or health enthusiast then this is a great place to grab a bite or drink.“
“At 730 am there isn't a better option in the area. They have full menu at breakfast. Everything I've had here has been delicious, I really like the shuco chapines and the dobladas de queso. The garnaches are also great. Get a bottle of Guatemalan hot sauce on your way out, you'll be glad you did. Great food, great value, great service, def my favorite place in town after work at 730a.Went back again and it was still amazing.“
“A cute place! The guy who was working made my boyfriends and my experience so much more enjoyable. He had a smile on his face and was very kind! The coffee and muffin were delicious and the shop is very chill :) we found a new Sunday morning coffee shop stop!“
“This place is so cool! What an awesome atmosphere and experience. It was wild coming back to the area that I grew up in to visit my parents and find a place that felt like it should have been here all along.Great coffee and free old school/classic arcade games, along with board games and cider/beer options too. What more could you ask for?“
“The atmosphere in Loca Mocha in Berwy, Illinois let's gives of a mix of Saturday morning mess hall with a Caribou Coffee aesthetic.Although being located next to the train station, Specifically, the metro piano swearing vibe is extremely peaceful and gives you the feeling of this would be a great place to retire. The view from almost all angles is beautiful. Whether you actually value train rails or the greenery. Going down for literal miles on all sides. Some trees even contain red yellows and shades of brown without being there.For the fruit purpose, make no mistake. They do have some interesting exotic drinks. I recommend the rejuvenator.Rarely do I get to see a mix of guava and passion fruit in the small town suburban city areas.The staff are friendly and quiet, just as the atmosphere and their ae statics usually match. Whatever seasonal holiday is popular. You'll come in a hurry, but you will find peace once you take a seat and a sip of whatever you drink.Quiet atmosphere.Pros: Atmosphere willingness to have exotic drinks on the menu. That aren't based on coffee or espresso. The quiet.Cons: Very basic engineeric seating arrangements tables are excessively small everything echoes, also be quiet.“

“Stopped in prior to an appointment down the road at Hines VA. Absolutely amazing customer service, (I wish I asked for the employees name, my receipt says Liz) but she was the friendliest, warmest, most pleasant person! I ordered fresas con crema and agua fresca de sandia, both are so delicious! I will definitely be visiting this place again! Thank you again for a wonderful experience!!“
“Golly Gumpers! This place will make your mouth water, your tongue tingle and your wallet bleed. Not only do they craft artisan sandwiches on fresh like God's air bread, they have the best Macaroni salad that would put mehmay's bbq to shame. Once you are teleported into a food coma from the array of bad decisions you made for your summer diet, wash it down with a fresh double chocolate cookie that will make you levitate from the excitement. If you have some extra penny's to rub together, try your luck at the slots. Only the most elite of our society gamble here since the PD is across the street. No having to worry about the local creep in a puffer jacket and ski mask in July, whew! If you are really feeling freaky, try the shrimp. I hate fish like Trump hates the truth, but my wife says it's Fire! Happy eating and competing!“
“I have had a great experience since day one. Everything I have ordered has been great. Employees are super friendly. Workouts are awesome!Kid-friendliness: My daughter had the bubble waffle and she loves them! This is a lot healthier for her since she does dance she has to get her protein in. She loves all the girls that work there.“
“My fiancé and I went there for the first time yesterday and went back again today. Their smoothies are fire !!! And to top it off they have Zumba classes there too. I will definitely be going back. Clean and upbeat environment. Serving healthy food as well which I look forward to trying soon“
“The best Horchata!!!Try tropical flavor like Guava and Passion fruit and you will love it. The staff is so friendly and kind and made our churros fresh for us. They let us try so many samples including strawberry milk. The place is cute, clean and nice place to hang out.“
“Curiosity is going to win me over 100% of the time. Such is with this place today.Ate the sweet nacho bat and I was pleasantly surprised. It is quite good.It is on my way to the Jefferson Park blue line for work. I will be coming here more often to try the other flavors and teas/slushies ❤️You guys should check this place out.You won't regret it ?Vegetarian options: They have plant based sausage (which I'm gonna try next)“
“I LOVE this place, the workouts are the best!! Me and my daughters have a blast! There's so much more to this studio than Herbalife, and theres no pressure. The owner is a GEM! Jen has a GREAT personality!! This is also a family oriented place that welcomes kids & has a kids class. IF you decide to get an herbalife product you'll also get the class (and they have equipemnt for ALL the students) U can not beat that! If you don't want the products- then you're paying $10 for the fabulous class! There's no scheme.. I've been coming for over a year and I don't sell herbalife and neither do my 2 adult kids, who also love to work out here.Kid-friendliness: Coach Veronica does kids classes here now.“
“Great local hole-in-the-wall artisan coffee shop. Cozy, albeit limited seating options. That said, there are two other shops close by (Wheely's and Starbucks) that can serve as backup options in the event you're seeking to sit down and it's unavailable.Glad to have this little place in La Grange!“
“I got the breakfast burrito with parfait, and apple fritter. The burrito was delicious, one of the best I've had recently. However the portions are quite small, which is disappointing since it was so good. The apple fritter was delicious as well, not sure if they make the pastries in house or not.“
“Gina and Fabian are amazing! My experience at the gym was fantastic. I’ve since moved out of state and it is hard to find a gym in my new location that meets my expectations after such an amazing experience at Focus. My workout plan was tailored to what I needed and wanted to meet my goals. The gym was never crowded and I never felt intimidated walking into the gym. Highly recommend open gym or one on one personal training. Thank you Gina and Fabian!“
“Yummy smoothies and teas. They use Herbalife products for add ons ($2$ extra) I wish that was listed before you started adding in protein scoops etc. I also wish they told you about the combos when you order more than one drink…definitely didn’t mention it the first time there. it’s a very tasty and low key spot. Been back a few times and still good service and drinks!“
“Let me tell you about this place! Whether your doing a To-go òrder or sitting down to enjoy the ambiance. Its the most beautiful, and girly place to take cute pictures with a protein bowl.in your hand. Menu has many options and drinks (healthy) which we all could use in our life. I had protein bowl, waffles, mini donuts and drinks all amazing and made to order. Don't snooze on this place check this place out! Will be going back“
“Smooth, creamy, with a bit of crunch and so decadent and healthy. Who said you can't have the best of two worlds?? It's definitely on the pricey side but it's in a popular part of Chicago so that's to be expected. I stopped by here after many runs I did during the 100 degrees weather weeks.. and the delicious smoothies were worth every sip! They can customize them to your liking if you want to swap out certain ingredients. Service was super friendly and recognized my sweaty face after my second visit which made me laugh. I especially loved the maca protein smoothie. Take my money.“
“I ordered an order from DoorDash. GREAT food. Nutella Crepe was amazing. So many great items. Rebecca who answered my call and took excellent care of my order. She thought of the tiniest details for my order. Coffee cups came individually wrapped so they don't leak. Orange juices and ice waters came in trays. This restaurant is great! Can't wait to visit again and go there. Thanks Rebecca for being amazing!“
“Came here in the middle of the day during a weekday, so it was pretty empty. That also mean we got served very quickly. The store had a cute wall and seating along the wall, but no tables. So it might be a little awkward if you have a large group. The drinks were pretty good though, we got the brown sugar milk tea everything was decent. Definitely not the best boba I've had, but the pearls were decently chewy and the flavor was decently good. My friend enjoyed his smoothie as well. Overall a pretty solid boba place. I'd come back again.“
“I always loved coming here for the paletas, I even did a cart for a birthday party last year and it was awesome! But this time I ordered fresh pressed juices for a medically recommended cleanse. Greg was awesome and recommended the perfectly designed cleanse for what my doctor recommended. Super quick to reply and very knowledgeable, give them a try!“

“Oberweis is a staple in downtown Western Springs and truly a family favorite! The staff is always so kind, patient, and quick with orders. In particular, Alexis, who always has a smile on her face. She has helped me with ice cream rewards for the school, and is always willing to answer any questions. Her customer service is excellent and it is very much appreciated. Thanks, Alexis!!“
“I love how they play music in the backgrounds, so I do hope there will be mexican music. Plus, I know that they're not waiter to deliver the food, but I like how they make the crepas in the skillet, so I can eat it. I hope they have some good air conditioning in the future because it has been getting hot in the summer for a few days. I also saw that on the television screen that they show a lot of Nutella foods that make me and all you hungry to eat. So good to the cafe for you and all of you to eat crepas, milkshakes, hot dogs, TikTok Pickle, Nachos, Tortas, Elotas, Aguas, Coffee, Micheladas, and Bebidas Preparadas at Rico Antojo.Kid-friendliness: I say that the people in Rico Antojo are very friendly because they are very nice people for us to buy food and to eat.“
“Miley's Nutrition is a great place.adequate nutrition. Great selection of leaded teas and shakes. Maribel is an amazing person, great personality friendly and always welcoming. she makes delicious shakes, one of my favorites is the mazapan shake. been coming here for almost three years.“
