I was at two breweries last Saturday and Five Squared was at both!…read more They offered 4 slices any variety which was a great way to try different selections. Their pizza is Detroit style pizza . We tried the Tie Dye- cheese with red and vodka and drizzled with pesto It was very good. The second was Ricotta Pepperoni and Hot Honey. I usually don't order pepperoni and I did take some off, but the blend of creamy ricotta and honey was perfect sweetness. My least favorite was the sausage giardiniera, but it is because I don't like giardiniera, but the rest of our group enjoyed it. The burrata caprese is the classic salad flavors into a pizza. The burrata was creamy . I have ordered their pizzas for pick up near my home in the past and have never been disappointed. They are the perfect pairing with a beer or cider.

The cheeseburger was surprisingly the best one it literally tasted like we were eating a cheeseburger! Other flavors : pepperoni, hot honey ricotta and the sausage giardiniera

I love truffle flavor anything so had to try their truffle BLT and fries…read more The fries were ok, the truffle flavor came from the aioli that was drizzled on top. It was really creamy but I'm not a fan, got flavor fatigue after awhile. The truffle BLT had the same sauce slathered between two white bread. The bacon was too thick and chewy instead of thin and crispy like how I would have preferred. I don't know if any sandwich made with two white bread can go any farther than just being mid

Went with a party of 3 to Roebuck for dinner on a Wednesday night. There was no wait and we were…read moreseated right as we walked in. The service was very prompt. We got waters immediately and had our food within 15 minutes of ordering. I got the grilled chicken BLT, which was absolutely fantastic. The garlic aioli that comes on the side is so good. Perfect for both dipping sauce for both the sandwich and fries. I also got their signature Shark Meets Hipster IPA, which is one of the more solid local IPAs I've had in Lakeview. The others with me got the fried chicken sandwich (it was huge) and the Back of the Yards pizza (I had a couple slices- it was wonderful). I've yet to have a bad experience at Roebuck and it is firmly on the "must-eat" list every time I am in the area. Highly recommend.

Walked over on a weekday around midday figuring it would be quiet. Wrong. The place was packed,…read morewhich tells you most of what you need to know. We ordered a couple of slices, several beers, and a couple of non-alcoholic drinks. The beer is the reason to come. Every pour was excellent, and that's coming from someone who orders a lot of beer. The pizza was above average. Slices come reheated rather than straight out of the oven, so calibrate expectations accordingly, but they were good and the portions were fine. Not huge, not stingy. The room itself is a pleasure. The lighting is fantastic, warm without being dim, and the space stays comfortable even when it's full. Service was quick and cheery, which is no small feat during a rush. The one knock is price. It runs a little high for what you get. Still four stars, and we'll be back.

Love, love, love this spot! It is everything you want for a warm weather patio dinner with friends…read more Great, shareable food, including the Big Salad (my fav!) and multitude of pizza options. We just tried the seasonal Sunny Honey and I am hoping to get it again once more before it leaves. The self-serve toasted vanilla ice cream is incredible -- make sure to leave room for it! Important to note that you can walk up to the bar just to come to get ice cream...from experience :) They have a wide variety of wine and beers to pick from if that's your thing. Ask for a sample of a few if you aren't sure which to order! My one thing I'd love is if they had fountain drink options...I don't always want a glass bottle coke. A Diet Coke would be a great addition to a pizza-filled evening.

We went in for a Saturday or Sunday brunch and were able to walk in. The service was overall friendly and fast. The French omelet was heavenly. I am usually not an omelette person generally prefer a regular fried egg because I find the homogenous mixed egg to be a bit boring but with the filling inside this was a perfect balance of taste. I didn't get to take a pic to accompany it but the potatoes were also delicious. I can't wait to revisit

I got the blueberry maple latte and it was delicious. On the sweeter side so keep that in mind. I would reorder every day if I could. For food, I ordered the Monte Cristo. This is not really a traditional Monte Cristo. They made the sandwich with bread that was a little too thick and added Dijon mustard. The mustard was all I could taste even after smothering it in the maple syrup they give you (they did not add the fruit jam that is usual for the Monte Cristo).

I've come here so many times, so I cannot emphasize enough that everyone should come here!!…read more I ONLY come during happy hour. Not that it's unpleasant outside of that time, but why miss out on a great opportunity to get fairly priced drinks and food? The service is always great, the staff are so kind, and both the inside and outside seating are comfortable and welcoming. I love the inside specifically, for the cabin setting is so warm and inviting. I usually get the Seattle Hard Cider and the Hummus Platter for the table. The hummus and vegetables are refreshing, tasty, and well portioned. For $8, it is such a great deal!! Please please PLEASE make the trip. No further comment!

Service was acceptable. Our server was kind and attentive. I hoped to, but not feel special. We tried a lot of dishes and they were hit and miss. Some were very good. Others were bland. Ceviche Tostada - Fluke | Salsa de molcajete (roasted tomatos) | Avocado| Mango & red onion mix | Tostada tatemada - Delicious! The flavor was fresh and unique. Mole Rosa - Goat cheese & beets pink mole | Seared scallops | Spiced pistachio - Super tiny serving. Not bad; not great. Short Rib - Braised short rib | Black mole | Pure de papas istmeño (potato purée isthmus-style) - We expected great things and were disappointed. The beef was okay. The mole and potato purée were tasteless. Pollo con Mole - Oaxacan mole negro | Roasted chicken | Arroz verde | Toasted sesame seed - Two folks ordered this. I tried it; it was delicious. Mark was talking about it later that evening. Sea Bream w/ Mole - This is not on the online menu so I don't have a full description. The fish and the mole were both delicious, but it was weird. There was nothing on the plate but the fish swimming in mole. Don't get me wrong; I cleaned my plate. It was very good, but it felt like something was missing. Cardamom tres leches - Orange blossom cake | Cardamom infused milk | Honey yogurt | Seasonal fruits - Super tasty; highly recommend. Lightly sweet. It was not my dessert, but I enjoyed a few bites. Avococo - also not on the menu, this was an avocado/coconut cake with something carmelized on top. The cake was super dense. This dessert didn't wow us and we would not order again. I'm glad we went. If we returned, I would get the Pollo con Mole and hold off on the appetizers. Maybe try some of the sides. For this visit, I'd give Istmo 3.5 stars.
