    Ice Cream on a Brownie
    Gauri S.

    My go to place for cookies and Cookie'wich's! Love their cookies and brownies with ice cream. It's a small cookie shop, usually busy during the weekends. Most suitable for ordering in or pick and go. There's not much to say about the service as it's pretty much a grab and go experience. Perfect for a cozy movie night at home!

    I was homemade cookies and what better place to go besides Insomnia cookies. It was nice and clean and everything was today. The refrigerator was fully stocked and everything was organized. I was instantly greater by staff and she was very patient as I was taking all day to order trying to figure out what I wanted. I will say the prices have risen, I was bummed out about that but hey....what can I do about it? I got enough cookies to satisfy my craving and let me tell you....my tastebuds were happy!

    It's insane that there is an insomnia cookies located in South Loop now for all that late night goers who may be heading home from their adventures. My friend and I were on our way back from Old Town and decided to hit up this new location. Our detour took us down Wabash and finally to the storefront, where we saw the massive line of cookie munchers at a little past midnight. Being plant based, we went for the three vegan cookie options: Birthday Cake, Chocolate Chip, and Double Chocolate Chip. For a half-dozen ($8), we managed to get two of each in order for both of us try them. My favorite here was definitely the Birthday Cake. It hit the spot on a late Saturday night for sure. Most other cookie shops with vegan options tend to just have chocolate chip, so I loved that we can add the funfetti to my cookie this time around. Definitely a good choice!

    I cannot resist ice and cookies, but together they're definitely a dream come true & insomnia cookie does it right! It's a small little joint, but the staff at this location are SO friendly. I decided to switch up one of my ice cream flavors in my cookie'wich last minute and the staff member was super nice about it & made our cookie'wiches quickly. It's a bit pricey, but I wasn't able to eat the whole thing in one sitting (two cookies w/ two scoops of ice cream) and it stayed yummy in the freezer when I ate it the next day. Highly recommend if you need to satisfy your late night sweet cravings!

    For pickup only, no place to sit and eat, so be prepared to have your ice cream melting in transport. I got the cookiewich and my cookies weren't warmed so they were very hard when I went to eat them. There was a flavor available that I tried - matcha latte & also got a birthday cake cookie, both those and the ice cream were really good, but almost impossible to eat as a sandwich because of how hard the cookies were.

    NOT open late - someone held the door to prevent us from getting in way before the 3am cutoff. Change your hours if you don't plan to serve.

I ordered the Oreo Milk Tea, and I was honestly blown away. It was so good that I couldn't leave without going back for a second one! That alone should tell you everything you need to know. The customer service made the experience even better. The staff was welcoming, friendly, and attentive, creating an environment that makes you feel appreciated as a customer. Great service paired with amazing drinks is always a winning combination. What really stands out is the combination of great flavors, generous portions, affordable pricing, and a team that makes the experience enjoyable from start to finish. If you're ever in the plaza, do yourself a favor and stop by Matcha EN. This is definitely a spot worth supporting, and I'll absolutely be returning!

I don't want to claim it was all food coloring but it only taste like vanilla ice cream. It wasn't too crowded at night and was able to get my order fairly quickly. I wouldn't really say this is a good matcha spot since it doesn't seem to have any matcha flavor. I had a suspicion from the menu options that they used to be Kyomatcha (a popular matcha dessert chain) but now called Matcha En. The good reviews are probably from the days it was Kyomatcha and not the current quality.

I've had this…read morefranchise in Texas before but had never been to the Chicago location, so I had high expectations--and it definitely did not disappoint. The interior is just as cute and welcoming, and the staff were super friendly. You can even see them in the back cutting up fresh mangoes, which is always a good sign! If you love mango, this is the place for you. There's so much going on in one bowl, but somehow it all works together--the best kind of chaos! There are mini mochi, fresh-cut mango, mango ice cream, mango jelly, and the base has this unique texture somewhere between a slushie and sorbet. I got the regular size, and it was already a LOT for one person, so I'd definitely recommend sharing. One quick note: the Molly tea you see in my photos was from a shop across the street and was not part of this store. Overall, such a fun spot to check out after exploring Chinatown, especially if you're into Asian food or visiting the area for the first time. And if you're a mango lover, definitely add this to your list!

I wish I was able to travel with one of their cheesecakes but they require refrigeration. Anyhow the cheesecake itself was delicious super light, fluffy, and honestly felt like biting into a cloud. I had the salted egg but they had several flavor options that I would've loved to try if slices were available. The texture is what really stands out, and the flavor was unique and interesting in a good way. I couldn't quite put my finger on what it taste like, but it was sweet, but not too sweet They only sale but I consider a personal size but it's definitely enough to share with two people, maybe even three depending on how much of a sweet tooth you have. My only downside like others is the price. Paying around $19-$20 for a small cheesecake felt a bit steep, especially since they don't offer slices. I really wish they had smaller portions available so you could try different flavors without committing to a full cake prize. They package it very well and they also serve you a cute little fork set and a knife for cutting which I think is contributes to the price. The shop itself is very cute with chic décor and a lot of Asian-inspired artwork, which adds to the overall vibe. Customer service was friendly. When I visit Chicago again I'd definitely go back the texture and taste alone make it worth it but I do hope they consider offering smaller portions in the future.

For a sit-down restaurant, I prefer to eat first and pay after, especially when service is expected. The service was not very proactive during our visit.

Finally, the broth of the Sichuan noodles was packing with flavor: sweet, tangy, spicy, umami - truly hit all the spots without being too numbing to your mouth, if thats one of your concerns Would definitely return to try the other menu items, especially their hot sizzling plates and their dessert/drink offerings
