Wow!!! Hands down the best vegan food I've had since I've been in Chicago! After leaving the Obama…read moreCenter we were hungry. It's a place in Hyde Park I'd been looking to try another spot but of course it was closed. Back to searching and we found this spot and what a gem! Sammy, greeted us and she was absolutely lovely! It's a local spot in Hyde Park and the decor is amazing! I had a special, jerk mushroom taco plate with beans, rice, plantains and pico de gallo. Hubby had the Mediterranean plate with oyster mushrooms. Amazing! We were given complimentary lemonade in celebration of Juneteenth, thank you so much! They have vegan cookies and we enjoyed a lemon blueberry cookie and it was delicious! We truly enjoyed our meal and the chance to trying out a new spot! Support local businesses!

Ok. Finally, a gem found!!!! THIS place thru me for a…read moreloop. I saw a review on TikTok and decided to try for myself. Oh my goodness. The burger is sooo juicy and everything is full of spice and flavor. My girl had the vegan option for the burger which is made from a mushroom. THAT was great too!!! I can't wait to come back to try the many other dishes. The prices are very fair compared to what you get. There are NO "surprise" hidden fees or service charges on your check. Sammy at the counter was most helpful. She also told me to my surprise that the current location has been there for 17 years!. I've told 3 of my friends last week and they all have since been there and are now big fans. ENJOY!!!!

Kind of a bare bones place, but the flavor is what counts obviously. The prices are kind of high, which is the only bad thing. Cool place literally when getting a bowl of what they put in it. It's got a lot of fruits and toppings to put on. They also have tacos for some reason. A healthy place to start a morning or afternoon. They're also okay at lunch if wanting tacos. It's about $13 for a bowl. Kind of a lot to be honest. I got the Açaí Berry Bowl. This is made with açaí blend, mixed berries, oat milk, and strawberries. This is topped with bananas, blueberries, chia seeds, coconut, granola, honey which I replaced with agave, pumpkin seeds, and strawberries. Has a lot for breakfast and lunch. It's closed Sundays. This is located next to the Cermak/McCormick Place Green Line station so it's convenient if stopping and then going to wherever.

The food was decent. I ordered the turkey croissant sandwich initially, it was Turkey deli meat on bread, gross. I complained and received a different sandwich, they BYOB sandwich. Much better with real meat, chicken sausage. My friend ordered the chinstrap sandwich, she said it was decent pairing it with the aioli made it better. The blueberry hibiscus tea was great. I'd come here again. It's a hit or miss with the food it seams. So order what you know you'll like! They have members only area, it reminds me of soho but smaller. Nice and quiet overall. Taylor handled my sandwich situation perfectly and with care. I appreciated her service!

This place is amazing and perfectly set within the Bronzeville community of Chicago's Southside!…read moreNeo-soul music plays lightly overhead with a variety of art and artists including Mr. George Washington Carver, himself. There's a "Blind Date with a Book" area, souvenirs, craft beverages, soaps, oils, sauces and fresh food in the cooler and cooked to order. This cinnamon roll is the business! OMGEEZEY!!! I also ordered a house brew with oat milk and honey, and a slice of mushroom & scallion quiche complimented a paprika aioli on the side. The aioli is okay, but you know that I'm a "Spice" girl, so hot sauce will dress this beauty for me. The crust is really flaky and buttery. This is a true gem for all kinds of souls! The team was chill, helpful and professional. Chicago is my kind of town!

The Good Life smoothie bowl is my go to as it's bursting with flavors of different berries and topped with granola and fresh fruit, giving it the perfect diversity of textures to elevate every bite. The portions are enough to fill you up when you're in need of a healthy alternative to a quick meal. In addition to being a satisfactory juice bar, the locale also doubles as a supplement store. Being allergic to whey, I often struggle to find products that won't disrupt my hypersensitivity. The employees are always very understanding and helpful when it comes to finding vegan alternatives. With its great menu and impeccable customer service, I highly recommend any one of the locations to all!

If you're looking for Puerto Rican food and in the area, it's a decent spot which is why it gets 4 stars. The Jibaritos were tasty and so was the arroz con gandules! I think the restaurant is a unique concept: it's a combination of a small Christian book store and a home-like cafe combined with a Puerto Rican restaurant. The menu is small. The servers are kind and bring the food quickly.
