We told our server, but there was no apology or real concern he just asked if I wanted something else, and then took forever to come back. I also noticed the water pitchers were dirty and appeared to have old food/debris inside. Definitely not an experience we expected, and we won't be going back.

How did I live in Chicagoland for so long and never know about this gem? Seems like I'm not the…read moreonly using the word gem to describe this place! I was back in town visiting for a wedding and my host recommended G&S for brunch. They are only open eight hours a week and the only time we could get one of their few tables was 9 am sharp. We arrived on time and were the second table seated in a dining room that only contained eight tables. Great music, with classic rock and country played at a moderate level. Servers were all super nice and engaging. I could tell this was a place where the regulars come often and the staff knows them well. I got my OJ and my friend got her coffee. Juice tasted pretty fresh, but I admit I wish it had a little pulp. Right away we headed up to the buffet line and it was so amazing. Herb and cheese frittata, thick cut bacon, thick sausage patties, cheesy hash browns, banana bread French toast, biscuits, sausage gravy, Caprese salad, cinnamon rolls, raspberry brownies, fruit salad, almond poppyseed scones, chocolate chip cookies... Everything I tried was excellent. The bacon and sausage were so full of flavor and as I mentioned they were thick, nothing wimpy about this breakfast meat. The French toast really had that nice banana and cinnamon flavor going. Cheeses added richness to the shredded hash brown potatoes. That cinnamon roll was so flaky. I even took some the buttercream frosting on top and spooned it on the French toast bake and that only made it even more amazing. I almost felt sorry for the fruit salad of blueberries, red grapes, and honeydew! 23 dollars was a pretty solid deal, especially since it was unlimited portions. I've had a few brunch buffets, but this absolutely ranks in the top 2 or 3 I have ever had.

This place is called Tako Chido now, I'm not sure I ever ate there when it was Bien Chido but after…read moregoing a few times for take out I can confidently give Tako Chido, 5 stars. The tacos are great especially the steak, the pastor is good, but maybe a little under seasoned. And you know what a little under seasoned is fine because if you have an adventurous palate you have to get the black salsa. It is very spicy but with an incredible smoky depth of flavor. It really makes the tacos pop. And to top everything off, the refried beans are phenomenal, so rich, and silky. I'm not really a eat a forkful of beans guy but I could eat a pint of these refried beans. In fact, I think next time I'll get a burrito because I'm sure they really set Tako Chidos burritos apart from other local spots.

It was a rainy Sunday, so got the banana nut macchiato hot with almond milk and 1/2 the sugar. Glad they have alternative options for milk and customize the sugar level. It was very just perfect. Also had the sausage scrambler sandwich that has scrambled eggs and cheese on an English muffin. Lot bigger than I expected and ate half the sandwich. Also got the Parmesan roasted red potatoes, which was really delicious. They were very hot and steamy. Every bite got the Parmesan cheese. They have a fireplace with comfy chairs. There are Tall tables and regular tables throughout the dining area available. We choose a table by the window. Love the inside decor.

Ambiance was nice, including an outdoor seating area where I enjoyed my coffee and avocado toast. Service was good as well; friendly staff, prompt service. The coffee, delicious. Good roast, good price, what more do you need. The avocado toast, probably why you are seeing 4 stars instead of 5. I have had avocado toast all of this country - sort of a go to for a light breakfast before one of my trainings. And, as far as avocado toast goes, this one was just okay. Fairly bland, despite there being an herb pesto-type sauce on it and some "half-dried" tomatoes. And when it comes to avocado toast, there is so much opportunity for good citrus flavor, salt, herbs, etc.. So, good cup of coffee, and hopefully some other good things on the menu - I only tried the avocado toast. Good folks, worth another try if I'm in town again.
