“01/2026: The main food was delicious, as always. I had the spaghetti and meatballs 🍝 this time. The servers were nice, however, it was impossible for them to bring breadsticks that were not cold and hard. I gave up after 2 requests and just used one as crackers for my soup.“

“Thank you Nijah! 🙂 Her customer service was superb as well as the manager on duty that handed me my order (I didn’t get to check his name tag). During the busy lunch rush everyone was so kind, with smiles on their faces and kept the lines moving despite just how many people were inside and at the drive through. It’s always a pleasure visiting this location.“

“Our first time at 'La Carreta' was great! Our host, Benito, was very kind to us and gave the kids some candy. I loved that they had margaritas in different flavors and sizes—some glasses were even bigger than they looked in the photos! Our waiter was very attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. The food was good for the price, and they let us swap ingredients in our dishes without any issues. Even though we stayed a bit past closing time, the owner never rushed us out; they were so nice to let us stay a little longer.“

“This Panera never disappoints! It is very tidy and it is my family's favorite place to stop whenever we are in the area! The service incredible as well. The cashier Sydni was very sweet and helpful. She went out of her way to make my visit comfortable and convenient.“

“Each time I go to Chicago or nearby I’m seeking out Portillo’s. Italian Beef or Polish sausage.“
