The bakery is nice; I picked up a muffin that was delicious. Sweet and moist, slightly caramelized. Reasonable cost for items. Check out is a nice design. Like lanes at a gas station. Service is good and overall good experience. The brand is pretty consistent across the market. Slight differences in the Store location and care of the stores. But overall, pretty good. Carts, grab those on the North side of the building before you go in. Covered area. The charcoal & fluid is at the Exit of the Door. So grab that before you go in if that's what you need. Other than that, simple layout and nice designed store. This brand makes a nice relaxed shopping experience overall. Solid 4.5 across the market. Large parking lot. Pay to park outside in the street.

When you're craving something besides White Castle and it's after midnight where do you go?…read more Well, if you're like me you think shrimp. And when you think shrimp after midnight you think of Lawrence's. To be fair I eat here about once every 10 years. Not because the food is bad or because in Chicago there are literally 100's of places open after midnight where you can get just about any kind of food. It's because I've been living in Phoenix for the last 30 years. That being said when I did live in Chicago for the previous 30 years I've eaten here often. Very often. I probably started eating here before I could drive with my father. And I'm happy to say that other than the building and its surroundings the recipes haven't changed. I've also never had anything other than the shrimp and fries. And the shrimp are still large, freshly fried with a cornmeal breading that is exactly what I'm craving when I come here. The staff is extremely friendly and very helpful. And the customers are probably some of the most loyal customers around. Why 4 stars. The breaded French fries. I prefer the fresh cut fries you get from our hot dog and beef stands to breaded fries. Second maybe crinkle cut but breaded takes it down a notch. Hey, Northsiders, you're all welcome here. I even wore my Cubs shirt.

Once we checked in with the hostess for our reservation we waited ~10 minutes to be seated and quickly greeted by our waiter Guillermo (so sweet and very friendly). We ordered our adult beverages (both very refreshing and tasty especially on a hot summer day) and flautas as an appetizer. The flautas are definitely big enough to share or as an entree. Guillermo provided great food selections and we decided on the quesabirrias and Molcajete. We were both silent for the first 5 minutes because we were enjoying our meal...the flavors were exquisite! Make sure to make a reservation...this was at 5:15 on a Saturday and it was packed! Walk-ins were definitely waiting for a table. Also be prepared that the noise level is a tad loud and the tables are close together.
