One of the owners was outside offering samples so I briefly met him and his wife - they seem really nice!! So far, I've tried the grape hydrate (yum!) and the golden girl (a carrot forward) drink - don't normally like carrot juices, but the blend is well done tastes pretty good which is high praise from me! I tried the soul kick which is very refreshing. The collagen acai bowl was excellent (I added a little extra almond butter and coconut flakes), and the smoothie special (it's cherry something) was very tasty. I'm a fan and will become a regular here. Can't wait to try more on their menu!

Excited to see a dim sum restaurant opened in downtown Oak Park. Unfortunately, their dim sum is…read morenot very good. Honestly, you will be better off going to an Asian market like H-Mart and buying frozen dim sum and making it at home . . . or maybe that is exactly what they actually serve here. The dim sum here is very small in size and lack flavor. Sui mais are usually pork and shrimp wrapped dumplings. These were small and filled with mushy shrimp. The bean curd roll had no flavor and was smaller than a cannoli. What they serve is outrageous and an insult to anyone who has had "real" dim sum. The sticky rice actually had some flavor with minimal savory filling and was the only thing passable on the menu. If you are desperate in having dim sum, I guess Sweet Dim Sum would fit the bill. Definitely, lower your expectations though on the quality and quantity of their dim sum. Sorry, but if I ever go back, it would be just to order their signature drinks. They couldn't mess that up, could they?

No, but Chinatown isn't that far of a drive, so it is disappointing that this Oak Park alternative wouldn't qualify as decent. When we walked in, there was a case of Mille crepe cakes, which looked homemade but didn't look very appetizing as they looked like pancakes stacked on and filled with whipped cream. We opted to try bubble teas and some savory dim sum. The cost of the soup dumplings was so astronomical that I could not justify purchasing four dumplings for $13.50. Also considering you can get a giant bag from Costco for that same price and it probably tastes better. The shrimp and chives cakes were honestly the best and they were just okay. The rice crepes were so bad. You can tell they were previously frozen and put into the microwave because it was falling apart. The shrimp was colorless. The veggie one we got was inedible; we sent it back. They wanted to make it right and gave us complementary mochi donuts. It was a nice gesture that we appreciated. We still ended up going to Katy's across the street because we did not feel like we had a sufficient dinner. There are no sauces here. If you ask, they'll give you the tiniest amount of sauce. There are also no chopsticks. Unless things really turn around, I'm inclined to save my money here and make the short trip to Chinatown.

Updated Review: Changed from 4 stars to 1, my previous…read morereview is below. As I mentioned in that review about missing cornbread, it's been a year of ordering from here almost weekly and I can count on one hand how many times we got the cornbread. It was a fluke that first time when I got it. I finally got smart about it and changed the name on the plates to "MUFFIN PLEASE." No issues since I started this a month ago, until tonight's nail in the coffin... One plate got everything; the other was missing not only the cornbread muffin but the CHICKEN! This is difficult to understand since it was just a "quantity 2." So now we've sworn them off since we've given them a chance for a year and they can't get orders right. (There was another occasion when our drinks weren't delivered either, but that one I don't know if was the driver or not.) Previous: My husband and I recently bought a house in Berwyn, which means we've been on a mission to establish our new go-to takeout spots. This is a responsibility I take very seriously. FARE has quickly secured a spot on that list. The first time I ordered the Smoky Chicken Plate, I was at the house by myself waiting for the furnace to be replaced. What started as a simple "let's get the furnace serviced and cleaned" appointment quickly turned into the HVAC technician politely suggesting that continuing to run the furnace would not be a good idea. At that point | looked around at the mountain of moving boxes currently filling the house and decided I didn't need to start collecting them from the trees and neighboring yards too. When the food arrived, I took one look at it and thought, "Damn, this looks good!!!" and immediately texted my husband about it. I followed that with another message explaining that it wasn't just looks, it actually tasted great too. The chicken was indeed smoky, the harissa potatoes were sweet, and I especially liked the Green Goddess slaw and mac & cheese. We've ordered three times now. The last order was missing the spicy red pepper sauce, which is actually a great on a few things on the plate. The mini cornbread muffin is as described in the screenshot and still somehow disappears faster than seems scientifically possible. Needless to say, when my husband tried it later, he also liked it.

He let us sample some delicious honey chicken (might not be the right name) oh, and some insanely delicious caramel cake In a cup that my daughter rated 11 out of 10.

Due to Covid and his hours/days fluctuating I hadn't been able to get by here. But I finally made it! I came in early when he 1st opened so there wasn't a line or a wait. I ordered 2 sandwiches a corn beef and then an Italian turkey sandwich, made like an Italian beef sandwich. I was starving & devoured the Italian sandwich in the car. It was pretty good. I also ordered 2 deserts a red velvet cheesecake cup with a Caramel Louisiana cake crunch cup. They were just ok. So the loss of the star was for the price. $40 for 2 sandwiches and 2 deserts is pricey. And they weren't large sandwiches. That would deter me from patronizing them frequently. The owner was very pleasant while I was there and I can appreciate that!!!

They have a variety of options in coffee, specialty latte, frappes, and pastries. I was disappointed that the lavender latte is only served in the spring. I ordered the 16 oz Cookie Butter Latte for $7.00. Quite expensive. It wasn't bad, I just wish the flavor of the latte was more flavorful and more syrup was added. The young lady behind the counter was friendly and patient with me. I was undecided on what to order when I walked inside. I love the little cute flower station by the wall. Build your beauty.
