    Stopped for a quick bite, ordered at the kiosk, the cashier was super helpful with recommendations for next time

    Build Your Own Bowl (Tahiti base with blueberries, mangoes, and strawberries)
    Caitlin V.

    My family and I were craving something sweet and healthy. Açaí Republic immediately popped into my mind. We enjoy walking here to grab açaí bowls. I built my own açaí bowl today. I usually get the Tahiti and substitute the bananas for mangoes, but they have two kiosks (so you can't order in person anymore). The staff was friendly and came out to greet us (as soon as we walked in) and to give us our order.

    My go to spot for a refreshing and healthy Acai bowl. This is a great alternative for breakfast, especially on a warm morning. They also have delicious savory pastries like the Coxinha, or the one with added cream cheese. Both have shredded chicken inside and are like a bite-size empanada. They do also have empanadas, along with cheese bread, and banana bread. My usual order is the Tahiti Bowl, which has all the fruits you should be having every day, over a frozen Acai sorbet base, and honey drizzled on top. But the best day to go is on National Acai Bowl Day every April 6th. If you're one of the first few who make it in dancing through the front door, you get a free one! Don't forget to mark your calendars, and sign up for their occasion deals and updates.

    Banana bread

    Overall I recommend this place, especially for açai bowls and since that's what they're marketing themselves as I'm sticking with 4 stars. The baked food is probably 3.5 stars. In total we got a Cali Bowl, coxinha with cream cheese, cheese bread, beef empanadas, and a slice of banana bread. Ordering is simple on two kiosk screens and the food came out fast with good customer service. The açai bowl in the regular size was shareable. Very tasty and refreshing. We went halfsies on it and then tried some of the pastries. 5/5 The beef empanadas are 4/5 good, seasoned nicely and served hot but not burn-your-mouth temperature.The dough was crispy without crumbling everywhere. Adding hot sauce makes them better. The coxinha with cream cheese was 4/5. Good portion and I liked the outer crumb texture and the creaminess inside. The dough was kinda gooey on one side though, and not in the way that made it seem on purpose. The cheese rolls were 3/5 so not our favorite, but maybe we weren't ready for the tapioca flour. They still *tasted* good, but the texture wasn't our thing. Banana bread wasn't super sweet and is served room temp. The slices are thick but I wish ours had been more moist. It's a dense bread! 3/5

    Sao Paulo (Most Popular) bowl. With mango instead of banana. As authentic as it gets!

    They have the best açaí base but not the freshest fruit toppings. Can't really review service because they require you to order off a screen rather than a live person. There's much opportunity for improvement.

    Amazing place, highly recommend! They have different bowls, cheese bread, coxinha, great staff and presentation

    I like they have the mini bowl option! It's small but was still filling for a lunch! The acai itself is yummy, not as liquidy as I normally like my acai normally. I like that the mango was an option for fruits. Easy to build your own bowl with kiosk. I think the acai here is more expensive than other local acai spots. It was $16 for my mini bowl after addition of some extra toppings like goji berries, flax seeds, agave, and peanut butter. Many other acai places give unlimited toppings. Fruit tasted fresh though and service was good!

    The Madly Mango

    Excellent taste and freshness like always, Absolute Fan here My favorite The Tahiti + sliced almonds and Nutella. Today I tried the madly mango, loved it too

    I should have taken the pic before we started digging in, but its that good!!
    Melissa T.

    Service is always an A+ and Chicago has a very inviting personality. Leo making the best Acai bowl.... everything on the menu is delicious. Super easy self ordering menu. I'd give 10+ 's if I could. Thank YOU for being the Best at what you do.

When we arrived, we were helped by a very kind server named Vivi. She was attentive and even changed the channel so we could watch the baseball game we came for. When her shift ended, we closed our tab with her and waited to open a new one with Katie, who was starting her shift. Unfortunately, once Katie began her shift, the music and the television channels were changed, even though we were clearly there to watch the baseball game. In hindsight, that may have been a sign that the experience would not go well. It took approximately 23 minutes for her to come and take our order I asked for a michelada and a ginger ale. This was extremely disappointing service. I would understand a delay if the place had been busy, but as you can see, the establishment was fairly empty at the time. Because of this, there was no clear reason for such a long wait. Overall, this was the worst service we have experienced here, which was surprising given our previous positive visits. That said, I would also like to highlight one of the servers who consistently provides excellent service. If possible, I would recommend visiting Thursday through Sunday when Naidelyn is working. She is always attentive to customers, provides great service, and greets everyone with a smile.

    I want to begin with an important distinction: my two-star rating is not meant to suggest that the…read morefood was terrible, the service was bad, or the restaurant unpleasant. It reflects something a little harder to quantify: value. The amount a restaurant asks me to pay inevitably creates a certain expectation. Food, service, atmosphere and price don't exist independently of one another; they form a package. And for me, the package simply didn't come together here. There were things I genuinely liked. We sat outside, beneath a corrugated metal covering, and I actually enjoyed the design of the space. The tables and chairs are a refreshing departure from the polished, corporate, "haven't I seen this in twelve other restaurants?" look. And the candle wall at the far end of the patio is simply wonderful--warm, cozy and genuinely beautiful. Unfortunately, the food didn't live up to the setting or the prices. We each had a beer: an 11.16-ounce can for $10. It was cold, fresh and perfectly drinkable. It also wasn't particularly good. Obviously, the restaurant didn't brew it, but ultimately they chose it, priced it and served it. We also shared the Chicken Empanadas ($18) and Mariscos Fritos ($22). The empanadas were... meh. Nothing particularly wrong with them, but nothing that made me want another one, either. The Mariscos Fritos were the bigger disappointment. The menu promises calamari and shrimp, although I honestly had trouble identifying much of either. There was plenty of fennel, which was far too raw for my taste, and the dish was a considerable distance from what I would describe as "cooked to perfection." And I want to be fair here: nothing tasted spoiled. Nothing appeared to have been fried in old oil. Nothing was inedible. We finished the plate. It simply wasn't enjoyable. The service was perfectly fine and, frankly, perfectly forgettable--and I don't necessarily mean that as criticism. Good service can be a little like music in a movie: sometimes you barely notice it, but you'd certainly notice if it weren't there. Nothing about the service bothered me, and nothing particularly stood out. What finally crystallized my feelings was looking to my right from our table and seeing a parking lot. At one point I was being blinded by the headlights of a car whose driver needed about four attempts to park. Had I been looking at the Caribbean Sea, I might have sipped my $10 canned beer, eaten my rather ordinary appetizers and thought, Well... I'm paying for the whole experience. But I wasn't looking at the Caribbean Sea. I was looking at a parking lot. And perhaps that's the best way I can explain the two stars. Two $10 beers and two appetizers brought us to $60 before tax and tip. That amount, by itself, doesn't offend me. I've happily spent similar amounts elsewhere and walked away thinking, Worth it. Here, I didn't. The food wasn't terrible. The service wasn't bad. The setting had some genuinely lovely touches. And the prices, considered in isolation, aren't outrageous. They simply didn't belong together. For what we ate, where we ate it, and the overall experience we received, I left feeling that what I had paid and what I had received were too far apart. And ultimately, that's what I'm rating.

There Were a few open tables and we were welcome to sit where we wanted to. Two classes of water were brought to the table and a waiter came with the menu. My mom is vegetarian and I am not. I asked the waiter for his vegetarian dishes and he provided me a pasta dish. That was exactly what my Mom was wanting. Linguine with a light pink sauce with mushrooms and you can add zucchini, bell pepper and broccoli. I ordered a sangria. That was just amazing itself. And a linguine dish with shrimp. Warm, sliced French bread and a small dish of butter was brought out first that was so good. Usually the bread and butter that is brought at small restaurants like these could be just mediocre or not good at all. This was warm and just tasty. We also ordered a Caprese. The plate came out with big chunks of mozzarella tomatoes, and both were sitting on a marinated pesto covered set of basil leaves. That was so good.

I have…read moretried chimichurri sauces from Whole Foods and Trader Joe's but they aren't really very authentic. A friend recommended seeing what El Gaucho might have, so I visited the next day. The market is easy to spot with a big street sign out front. There are only two parking spots in front, one is a handicapped space. There's plenty of parking around the back though. When you walk in, you will see the main market with lots of items and brands I've never seen before. Slightly to the right is their deli counter with lots of meats, cheeses, and other miscellaneous items. To the right of the entrance is a dining area, and another counter where you can order sandwiches, empanadas, pizza, French fries, and drinks. I was laser focused on getting the chimichurri and leaving since I was short on time. It is in plastic bottles in plain view on on top of the deli counter. I purchased the regular variety, but they also have a spicy version. I could already tell this was going to be way better than the other two sauces I tried. I've had it on a steak, and on my breakfast scrambled eggs, and it's in a whole different league from the grocery versions I tried. It looks just like a restaurant chimichurri, oil based with lots of herbs and spices. I just had a nice filet mignon with chimichurri at a good Argentinan restaurant last week, and this chimichurri is about 90% as good. I moved it from the plastic bottle it comes in to a glass jar which will hopefully help preserve it longer, and store it in the refrigerator. I now have no reason to look elsewhere for chimichurri. My friend visits here periodically and says the sandwiches are excellent. I'll have to return again to try one, get more chimichurri, and explore the market and deli to see what other goodies they have.
