    Super cute little spot! All natural italian ice! Fruit, sugar, and water! The person working there was super sweet and let me try all the flavors. All of them were great but I got raspberry and mango! Such a great combo! Everyone else got mango coconut which is the most popular combo! Outside they had some lawn chairs which was really nice since there were a lot of us! It was cool their cups and spoons were biodegradable! Would recommend for anyone looking for a refreshing treat to beat the heat! Happy eating!

    SUCH good Italian ice!! Love that this place is local. The flavors are fresh, unlike other Italian ice that uses syrup. Definitely suggest checking them out

    Such a cute place!!!

    Such a great place!!! DELICIOUS flavors, the friendliest service, cute little place to pop in and grab an Italian ice. They're soon to add sandwiches and soups to their menu. I'll definitely be back!!!

    Such a cute little shop in Portage Park. Bright and colorful with fruitful details. Delicious real fruit flavors that are not too common elsewhere like passion fruit, watermelon, coconut, kiwi and grapefruit. Fave is the passion fruit. They have bench seating inside and two bistro tables outside so you can enjoy your treat al fresco on a nice summer day. Always making a stop here when in there area.

    Just what the northside needed! A true Italian I've joint, with friendly service and cute ambiance. I've true the blood orange, coconut, & raspberry, all delish.

    This one's a winner guys. It's made with real fruit and doesn't have that frozen kool aid kind of flavor. It's the best! I'm hooked now.

    Italian ice is my favorite treat and I have been to almost all of the places in Chicago that serve Italian ice.

    First and foremost, I ate here this past Saturday. I was brought there steak sandwich. I had never…read moreeaten in the establishment before. I was thinking it wouldn't be promising cause I was thinking steak sandwich tuff, hard to chew, a piece of steak between two pieces of bread. Well I was duped on that thought. I received the stead sandwich, I opened the tray and was so surprised of what I saw. It was cut in half, and it was big. I took the first bite and let me tell you, it was so mouth watering I had to take a second bite. This steak sandwich melted in my mouth. It was all chopped up, into pieces, it was easy to chew, and swallow. It was seasoned just right, and I just couldn't stop eating it. I immediately asked where was this place. The sandwich came with a dressing, lettuce and tomato, on a French bread roll. I fell in love. I decided I needed to now go there, and get another one so I went there yesterday. I sat in the car in front of the place. I placed my order then went inside to get it. The restaurant has seating and lots of it for eating inside. They had tv's on the wall and a view to the outside. They had a public bathroom. There were patrons dining in when I arrived, and I walked up to the counter to get my sandwich. I informed hopefully it was the manager, that I had eaten the steak sandwich on saturday and it was mouth watering, and I just had to have another one. I didnt order fries when I made the order but I asked and they made fries to go with my steak sandwich. The fries too were just like I like them. Thin crispy and taste great. After speaking with the manger he wanted me to try another item they carried. It was an empanada, that too was delicious. The sandwich is so big full of steak, literally falling out the bread I couldn't even finish it. I had to save half for later that evening. This place impressed me. I don't know if they have self parking, I park in front, and ran in for my food and left. I was also told once they close the eat in dining for the evening they have a space next to the dine in that you can order for take out, and pick up till late night and thats a plus. I have to give this restaurant and awesome review cause it's rare to like everything about a business you frequent for the first time. The patrons that I saw eating at the tables looked happy and enjoying their food. I'm sure they carry more than the the steak sandwich, but that was my fav order. Thank you to the manager for allowing me to try the empanada free of charge.

    Tried El Cubanito and also had their steak sandwich. I'd rate it about a 7/10 -- still good, just…read morenot something that completely wowed me. Service was quick and efficient, and the vibe inside was nice and relaxed. Solid spot overall.

You can sit outside or grab a menu and go inside . The inside has about 8 tables that fit 4 people each . Inside there is a table with utensils and water glasses as well for help yourself service . You order at the food truck window and grab a seat. They brought our food inside to us on a tray. We ordered the rope vieja, steak jibaritos, and flautas . Everything was very good but I especially loved the flautas with the consome. It was absolutely delicious and very unique, I drank the leftover consome because it was that good . Just poor everything in one big bowl . The flautas keep their crisp even when swimming in the broth . I liked the shredded Munster cheese on the jibarito and loved the green sauce . Sooo good!! The restaurant is byob and we brought mixes for bloody Mary's and some beers. It was nice to enjoy the meal and not feel rushed . I really enjoyed the experience, good music playing and kind service . Definitely recommend

    I had such an amazing experience at Omarcitos today…read more I stumbled across an IG reel of this food spot, and I immediately knew I had to check them out. The cafe has such an interesting set up. You order from what appears to be a food truck, and there is an outdoor (open concept) and indoor seating. We ordered the steak sandwich and ropa vieja plate. The steak sandwich was DELICIOUS. The bread was crispy, and the meat was flavorful and juicy. The sandwich also paired so well with their garlic side sauces. The Ropa vieja was also so insanely yummy. The beef was so juicy and savory. The garlic rice was also so yummy. I'm not a huge fan of plantains, but the plantains were actually pretty decent! Overall, I had an excellent experience at Omarcitos. I cannot wait to come back once it gets warmer!!
