I love when you cut into a poached egg and it runs all over the food. But I love it even more, when it's contained so you can have the best bite. Chorizo Benedict yum and the spicy poblano hollandaise, I want a cup to go. An iced cup of Dark Matter coffee and Chorizo, eggs and potatoes, a great way to start the day. Also tried the Chicken and french toast. The challah bread was delicious and the habanero maple syrup legit! Service was great the ladies were attentive and friendly. read more

Loved the food here! The service is fantastic and the coffee is super good. Try the chilaquiles verdes w egg over easy! read more

This place knocked my socks off. The chicken chilaquiles were amazing. Every component was packed with flavor. And the churro French toast was the best we've ever had. Ridiculous! read more

alambre was piled high with juicy steak, bacon, and melty cheese, and the salsa roja had a legit smoky kick. our server kept the horchata refills coming and even brought out extra tortillas. read more

I came here around 11:45am on Memorial Day. It was quite busy as to be expected, with other restaurants in the area closed for holiday. The first thing I noticed was no host. The bartender noticed me but was busy and got to me when best she could. Since I was alone, I ended up sitting at the bar. It was obvious the staff was a little backed up and the time it took to get my order in was maybe 10 mins after I sat down. The food took close to 30 mins to come out. I got the Pocho Burger and fries. Really good flavor. A bit messy, but what good burger isn't? I think this place will be a hit to most, so long as they can handle a packed house. Decor, music, vibe 10/10 Service 7.5/10 Food 7.5/10 I'll be back to try some more of their menu, on a regular day read more

Wonderful service and excellent brunch food. My friends and I came here on Mexican Independence Day and the place was crowded, but we didn't have to wait too long for a table. I had the fried chicken and French toast and couldn't decide between the regular and habanero maple syrup, so our server gave me some of both at no extra charge. The chicken was excellent - juicy and tender with a nice crispy coating. French toast was tasty as well. This was my first time here and I'd definitely recommend it for anyone looking for a brunch spot in Pilsen. read more

Food and service are great! We ordered chorizo omelette, chilaquiles, and kid's meal: all very tasty, well-presented, and have large portions. We also enjoyed the spiced coffee and sweet cream coffee. Will definitely come back! read more

This is an apartment converted to a restaurant. It's very nominally air conditioned, so, maybe stop on a cool day. The chicken and French toast has excellent boneless, spicy, moist flakey chicken. The French toast is decent, but, I'd prefer it a bit more flavorful and just a little sweet to contrast the chicken. Hibiscus lemonade was really nice as well. read more

Best pancakes in Pilsen!!! This is now our favorite breakfast spot! The chilaquiles and French toast never disappoint. read more

The waitress was super attentive and nice. $76 dollars for 3 burgers we were not asked if well done the buns were super greasy. Fries were all pale not really fried soggy like so I'll never have burgers from there ! read more

Some of the best french toast in the city. Great service. Been there twice and can't wait to go back.

Went for my birthday and I can't believe I had never been there! The service was the best, food was delicious and big portions! Definitely going back soon! read more

i've been here on multiple occasions over the past year and have enjoyed my time and meal each time! the most recent time was mid july. we ordered the empanadas for our starter. they were so tasty, great texture and flavor. for our meals we had the steak skillet and the shakshouka. both of them were amazing!! no notes, would definitely get again. the service is always good and they are very attentive. they play latin music and there's great energy inside. i do wish they had an espresso maker for lattes. other than that this is a great brunch spot for any day of the week! read more

So delicious! I come here almost every week for brunch. Staff is so nice and welcoming. We typically never have to wait and even if we do, it's less than 10-15 minutes even on the weekends. I've tried a lot of items on their menu but my favorite is the cubano sandwich. The sweet cream coffee is delicious as well. Super cute interior and good vibes overall. read more

Pochos - Chicken French Toast & Brunch Burger - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

A great addition to the Pilsen brunch scene that has quickly become a favorite for me. Food is classic but exciting, combining Mexican with American comfort. You are sure to find something to meet everyone's taste. Service was attentive and friendly, with great suggestions. Music was at a comfortable level and the space is wonderfully decorated. My only suggestion would be to get some paper towel dispensers and a changing table for the bathrooms. Aside from that my family and I can't wait to go back and try more delicious food. read more

First visit today. Overall food was good. A little bit on the expensive side for basic food but oh well that's the case for most places now. Only thing that left a bad impression is the young male waiter who was friendly asked the table next to us to leave because there were people waiting. They were there maybe 30 minutes since we saw them arrive. If they or us were camped there for two hours maybe but a 30-40 stay I think is not unreasonable. read more

The food is amazing!!! I went there for breakfast and got pancakes and eggs and oh my god it sent me to heaven. There workers there are so kind and loving. I love the signs on the walls there so nice and cute. read more

Great portions for price. I always get the chicken and French toast, delicious !! Friendly staff.

Oh, Pochos, you guys are the best for breakfast! Delicious Benedicts and now they have fabulous cocktails, too. The chicken and waffles are to die for. Love my server Dario and hope he has come back safely from his trip home to Acapulco. read more

Great food, vibe, and people. I've been a regular for years, at both the new & old locations, and they never fail to amaze with a constant level of quality, fresh flavors, warm smiles and value for the buck! I love me some Eggs Benedict and Pochos is a regular stop for me. read more

A bit pricy. Service was quick and accommodating. Waitress checked on us and made sure we were ok after receiving our food. Had to try both chilaquiles. Red is a bit dry and had to request more spice. The other patrons ages were mixed. Fist time and will not be the last read more

Everything is great here!!! Especially the fruit French toast!!!! A must have!!!!!!!!!

Amazing breakfast and lunch right off the train line and next to the Mexican Art Museum. Parking is easy right around the corner or next to the park. They're always full but the wait is never long and they have a bar to eat alone. I've only been on weekends I image they're a little less busy during the week. Even though it's busy, it's still a great place for a date or anniversary and never too loud. I'm pretty sure they're BYOB and the store across the street sells liquor. I love their cafe de olla and drinks though. They've been around a while and just moved to Pilsen. Their take on classic dishes is always elevated and 10/10. I had the chilaquiles plate and the salsa was rich and a cloud in my mouth. I had never had a more luxurious experience and I've had chilaquiles hundreds of times. The French toast and chicken was amazing, it had a spicy maple syrup. We ate deviled eggs as an appetizer. Our friends loved the burger, fries and skillet. They had special menu items for Easter. The kitchen is visible from the seating and very clean, fast moving. I will be coming back during the week and updating my review. The whole experience was fun, we bought candy next door after, grabbed a few souvenirs, and walked to the museum but it was closed for the holiday. I can't wait to come back! read more

Very Good food & Service too. Took son there for lunch, we both enjoyed food & nice setting Too.... They could use a stronger AC though it was kinda warm for this end of July summer lunch. But everything else was awesome read more

Everything we order was great! And the customer service from Daniel was awesome! He was very helpful and gave great recommendations! Their torta de chilaquiles and chicken sandwich is to die for! read more

The food is not bad, but it's also not great like La Quebrada or Catedral. My two friends and I have been here twice. We ordered chilaquiles both times. The sauce is, well, I can't say what it is for sure, but it feels maybe too sweet or something. It tastes like the salsa one buys at the grocery store. I do like that they use queso cotija and queso fresco, but that's about it. What I really don't like is the service. The staff is overworked and it shows. Our waitress was very irritable at 10am, spoke to us in am agry manner as she rushed us through our order. But even before our waitress got to our table, there was a memorable exchange with one of her coworkers. I saw a guy near the water station, next to our table, and asked him for some water. We had been sitting there for a while without water or coffee, so I thought it would be ok. Well, he obviously disagreed because he said with a bad attitude, "your waitress will be with you soon." He could have just handed us some water. There were multiple glasses literally rught there next our table. I could have reached oher to grab them but didn't want to be rude. So we waited a few minutes after that for our water. The worst moment was after we finished our mediocre dishes. We ate very fast cos we wanted time to enjoy some coffee. We ate for 10mins to be exact. As we were finishing, the waitress came to our table and said, "we're going to be needing this table in ten minutes." I told her that I wanted coffee and that we would stay until I finished my meal. How rude! read more

The chicken and waffle is a must eat ! Staffers are great! Nsnababsjjwbjdjwjnwjwnnbxb

Upon arrival, we were told it would be a 30-40 minute wait. It actually ended up being over an hour. Unfortunately they don't take reservations. The food was okay. Chicken was too salty for me. Our waitress was nice but then we felt rushed at the end since they said they needed the table since other people were waiting. read more
