    Inside

    I love all the options they have on the menu. You can really make the smoothie your own based on what you want. It's very cute inside as well. The decor is funky and modern. I'd definitely say it's worth a visit if you are in the area.

    Smoothie And Berry Açaí Bowl
    Steve A.

    Got something for breakfast that was as the name says it is of course. Healthy And Simple is an unassuming place in Noble Square. It is locally owned and operated by a Mexican family so there's lots of exotic fruits to mix up. Has okay prices for the quality. There's açaí bowls and smoothies, as well as hot foods such as empanadas and tacos. Came at breakfast. It's a small place with a couple tables inside. There's all kinds of fruits to make a smoothie or a bowl as well as granola and other stuff. Hard to choose. It's $8 for the build your own smoothies. Got one with almond milk and a few fruits. These are just one option. It's about $11 for the Berry Açaí Bowl. This is made with açaí, apple juice, bananas, blueberries, pitaya, and strawberries. Good enough but it gets better. This is topped with bananas, coconut flakes, granola, and mango. Has a crap ton of fruits and other healthy foods. It's a healthy place to be sure. There's options for breakfast and later for vegans and vegetarians.

    Super cute spot on busy stretch of Ashland. Since it's started to feel like spring I've been on a juice/smoothie kick and this place has great options. Lot of fresh fruit and different blends of juices and smoothies as well as bowls. I also saw that they make paninis and breakfast sandwiches, I'll have to try their food in the future. I had a beet carrot grapefruit juice that was amazing. Friendly service too.

    Tall is from this juice bar, quality not good.

    The only reason I give it a star is the customer service lady was decent although more Spanish speaking. This place is filthy with their juice and you have to be cautious with fresh vegetables sitting out. Rinsed the carrots tried to juice them all wet like negative ! The juice all watered down. Save $15-16 and go down the street to Sunlife , I didn't even bother to drink it. Xoxo Juice Snob

    Post completion of my run, I searched yelp for smoothie places within a radius of me. I took interest in two smoothie places 'Sol Chicago' (ranked no. 5), and 'Healthy and Simple' (ranked no. 2) which were both located in an area that I frequently visit. I nearly chose Sol Chicago because of its low reviews but went with Healthy and Simple solely because I figured parking would not be a headache due to its location. After briefly looking at its menu online, I took a liking to their breakfast smoothies which became the decision maker for me driving out. The options for parking I noted were along N Ashland Ave or within the neighborhood. During this visit, I was fortunate enough to find a parking spot directly outside which was pay by the plate. After entering Healthy and Simple, I encountered a woman working behind the counter who did not appear very social. She did her thing behind the counter until I was ready to order which is okay because I can relate; it was a Sunday the day of my visit. I ended up ordering a yellow breakfast smoothie solely because of its ingredients which were banana, pineapple, ginger, Greek yogurt, and orange juice. Yum! Service: 4 (Good) The mood was set with music by Juan Gabriel (El Divo de Juárez), a Mexican singer, songwriter and actor who is known for his flamboyant style. Other than that, Healthy and Simple gave off a peaceful vibe and felt similar to a Mexican restaurant yet consisting of healthy breakfast/ lunch items, and an array of juice & smoothie options. And as for dine-in there are only a few tables with seats available in the dining area. Atmosphere: 5 (Great) Oh my God! The yellow breakfast smoothie tasted very good! I could not help but enjoy the taste of each ingredient as I savored each sip! After finishing it, I said to myself "Ok, I think I got a favorite!" (A favorite smoothie place, and smoothie!) Food: 4 (Good) I would gladly order from Healthy and Simple again when in the Ukrainian Village/ Wicker Park area, or if I get a craving for something ordered previously. As a fitness enthusiast, I give you my endorsement of it as the complimentary option to a healthy lifestyle or someone pursuing it. Service: 4 | Atmosphere: 5 | Food: 4 Recommendations: Breakfast Smoothies (Yellow, Carrot, Purple, and Green) ~ Smile. Sparkle. Shine. ~ Thomas G

    Dragon Dragon Fruit Bowl
    Dana M.

    I've been wanting to try this place and it did not disappoint. I just got a dragon bowl from here. It is super yummy. Everything taste so fresh. It was really hard to put it down in the place and people felt welcoming. Looking forward to trying them again probably again this week.o

    Paletas

    Delicious smoothie with so many options to pick from and they names of each smoothie is pretty funny. They have paleta which I personally never had but it's great to enjoy during the summer. Service was rather quick and it's a cute cafe to sit and enjoy your food/drinks

    Dragon fruit bowl
    Ali K.

    Definitely go here! Everything is fresh! So many combinations you can pick from and it's fresh fruit. No uuneeded sugars or even worse, artifical sugars! Highly recommend! The staff is very helpful and above all, the juice and the bowl are tasty. We ended up getting the Pina colada dowl, the dragon fruit bowl and the smoothie of the day, (kale, spinach, banana honey, coconut milk, u may be missing a few components lol). It very affordable and the sizes are huge!

We stood at the door for about 20 minutes before someone finally told us the wait would be 1-2 hours. Keep in mind, the place is pretty small and already crowded, so there's barely any room to stand while you wait. After getting on the waitlist, we decided to go to a nearby spot for food--but not even 5 minutes later, we got called back saying our table was ready. When we returned, we were seated along the wall in a very tight space--so tight that if I stretched my arm out, I would've hit the person next to me. We noticed a large table nearby had been sitting for a while without food. When their food finally came out, it made us realize our wait would probably be even longer. After another 20 minutes passed and we still hadn't been able to order, we decided to leave. I'm not sure the space is fully ready for the rush right now--it feels overcrowded and service is slow. I'll give it another try once the hype dies down. I'm happy for their success, though--just be prepared to be patient when you go.

Starting with margaritas (because obviously ‍), queso and chips that were dangerously good, and the chicken empanadas that came out perfectly crispy with so much flavor. We kept looking at each other after every bite like "okay wait... THIS is the best thing here" and then another plate would arrive and prove us wrong again The carnitas fried rice??? I genuinely cannot stop thinking about it. So savory, flavorful, comforting, and packed with crispy carnitas on top with the eggs and pickled onions... literally unreal. And then the skirt steak tacos absolutely stole the show. The steak was cooked perfectly, packed with flavor, and paired so perfectly with all the toppings and sauces. Every single bite tasted fresh and homemade in the best way possible. And can we talk about the ambience for a second because WOW. The music, the energy, the vibe inside, everyone celebrating, the drinks flowing -- it felt like the perfect Cinco de Mayo dinner spot.

The atmosphere is easily for dates, friend outings, after work outings etc. The restaurant decor is nice. It puts you in the mind of a European garden. There is no parking but a garage across the street along with metered Street parking. Beware parking cost $46 for about 2.5 hrs. The food bill was $141, way too expensive for tacos and a few margaritas. I will pass on this place.

Appetizers were quac and chips, and shrimp ceviche. The guac was really good, but the ceviche was the star. Served on a bed of cucumbers, it was visually beautiful, and the flavor was fresh and complex. There was also a LOT of it. We ended up taking some home. Entrees were steak and shrimp for me, and Tampiquena for my friend. In both dishes, the steak was done to perfection. The sauce that came with my shrimp was spicy and deep--lots of flavor layers there. Both of us took home portions of our meals because there was a lot of food on the plates. Finally, the service--the servers are attentive without hovering. If we needed something, they were there, but never intrusive. It is hard to believe this is a little neighborhood spot, given the service and the quality of the food. It was not too busy tonight--we ate early--but I recommend reservations.
