Both were delicious but I think I may go with a lighter drink next time. The display cases also had plenty of to go options and bakery items that I will venture into next time. Ordering is straight forward. The wait is not long and I had my order within a few minutes. I chose to sit outside and the tables were tidy and clean. There is also the option of sitting inside with a few tables between the counters and cases of merchandise and food items. I will add this to my rotation when I need a little treat outside of bringing my lunch to work.

DELICIOUS.... EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE!…read more First... I was incredibly stressed out running through the hotel trying to find a quiet place to get online for a meeting. I was an absolute mess dropping phones, my calendar, my mouse... just looking completely flabbergasted! I somewhat "fell" into Sugar Bliss asking if I could come in and sit for this meeting and the manager invited me in! My AirPods weren't working and my WiFi had disconnected... so she came over and asked if she could help. She was AMAZING, even offering to turn down the music so I could just use my laptop speakers. She was so helpful, but I ended up having to talk about a client, so I excused myself. After my meeting, I came back in and she was still there. I bought some delicious mini cupcakes and headed out the door, thanking them for the amazing service and being so helpful when I was a hot mess!

The space is very nicely decorated with few tables if you wish to dine in. They offer macaron, cupcakes, cookies/brownies and coffee/tea drinks in the store. I got the banana banana and the cinnamon carrot cupcakes and a dirty chai to go. I honestly did not have high hopes for the cupcakes as I have tried many that had rave reviews that end up being dry, too sweet or simply not worth the dollars and calories. I was pleasantly surprised! Both cupcakes were moist, spongey with good flavors. The best part is that the icing were just the right sweetness (also with a lighter consistency, not heavy at all) and a lovely balance for the cake portion. The dirty chai was just okay, I personally wouldn't order it again. However, I will return for more cupcakes!

We absolutely loved our drinks-- mezcal may be, lych please, sake to me. Overall, I had a decent experience. Towards the end my server rushed us a little for the check which I did not appreciate, as I was style drinking and was not done with my food either.

I'm giving this place 4 stars instead of 5 because of service. The server we had wasn't the friendliest even when I asked about the menu and it seemed like we were bothering her when we needed something. They weren't that busy at 1pm.... Her answers were short related to the menu and we had to wait a bit to get the proper silverware to start eating our food. I'll probably do take out next time.

Of course I had to try both the turkey meatballs and the salmon, and both were a perfect 10 out of 10! So much food, All the vegetables looked so fresh and vibrant. From the sweet potatoes, tomatoes, whole roasted carrots down to the kale! Chefs kiss I don't think I'll ever visit CAVA again! Lol I highly recommend stopping by this place, you will not be disappointed!!! I see people complaining about the price in the reviews but this is basically the same price as a bowl at CAVA and you get a lot of food for one bowl. And Let's be honest, prices have gone up everywhere. Its's supply and demand!. Don't blame the restaurant... you know who to blame!

This place has a lot of personality: old wood finishes, "graffiti" on every reachable wall and sill. I wanted to follow the other reviews and get the calamari and the chili. The calamari was very good, but has a short shelf life. The chili was nice, but a little toothless. Also had the cubano which was rich in pickles which is always a plus. I guess, since it's claiming a deli in-residence, I'd try the deli sandwich specialities. I don't know when I can get out here next, but it looks like the pizza is supposed to be the next thing we try.

Appreciate that all the sandwiches come with a small side (pasta salad is the go-to). Warm sandwiches are the better option, more unique and more worthwhile. The line can get a bit long but I've found it moves pretty quickly and it's certainly worth the wait.

It was such a nice day outside that they also had wonderful open air seating which was a really nice added touch. There aren't that many pastry options which I actually can appreciate as too many can make it hard to decide.

It was their homemade focaccia topped with Chicken and Mole Rojo. O. M. G. I would make the hike to Pilsen just for this.

We are NOT vegan and had no idea it was a vegan ice cream shop until after we ordered. It was delicious! The sizes are pretty big. The shop itself is a little small, I would plan on ordering and enjoying on the bench right outside. Would recommend and would make an effort to visit next time we are in Chicago!
