Downside to sitting in is the music is loud so if you need a quiet space this probably isn't it. The service is good. Very swift and to the point. I ordered an iced coffee that I wouldn't get again but not a harsh judge on that. Don't think drinks are their strong-suit. Naturally, best part is the sandwiches. I had a corned beef breakfast sandwich on croissant and it was fantastic. Will definitely be back!

Some friends and I visited Chicago recently and were looking for restaurants to have dinner. When I…read moresaw that Virtue was Black owned and operated, I made a reservation. I'm glad that I did. We were greeted upon arrival, and seated shortly thereafter. Our server, David came over and spoke to us about the menu selections. We were extremely satisfied with his service. I was truly impressed with Lou, who I assume was operating in a managerial capacity. He went from table to table checking in with the guests to find out if anything was needed. He removed plates of finished food from tables, and even explained the desert options to us. Well done. The food was delicious! I usually have to add salt to my food. I did not have to add anything here. The food was perfectly seasoned. We all enjoyed our choices. I would highly recommend this restaurant without hesitation.

The bowl included shredded romaine lettuce, corn, rice, great spices, pico de Mayo, which added freshness to your palette, also it had melted mozzarella on top.

Recently came there for brunch after doing some shopping with my sister. The restaurant is located…read morein a small shopping plaza on 55th St (near the University of Chicago). It was packed with ppl during ~1:30pm, but we were lucky enough to get a seat at patio. We tried the following dishes: 1. Caesar Salad with Chicken: A huge plate of salad. The greens were quite fresh, and the seasoning was just standard Caesar salad style. We added a side of grilled chicken (about 6oz raw weight), and the meat wasn't dry at all. 2. Rigatoni alla Vodka with Meatball: A very large plate of pasta. The sauce is tomato and cream-based, and the flavor profile is quite mild. The pasta was perfectly al dente. It came with some Parmesan sprinkled on top, and I later asked the food runner to grate a bit more cheese for me. I also added one huge meatball and it was good as well. There were also some dark leafy greens in the pasta, but I wasn't entirely sure what they were. 3. Side of Bagel: We originally wanted a basket of complimentary starter bread, like sourdough, ciabatta, or focaccia. To our surprise, the restaurant didn't have any, so we had to order a side of bagel for $4... Overall, the food we ordered was delicious, and the portion size was quite geneous. The service, however, was mediocre. We waited a long time to order and to pay the bill, which almost made me miss my flight... I tried to make eye contact with our server, useless. But what really made me annoyed was that, when I was about to pay the bill he tried to select the tipping percentage for me?? So I ended up with only 10% tip. This then made him angry and said to us "We are in America you should behave well". Due to this, I may not dine in again -- after all, Chicago does not lack good Italian restaurants!

I'm not the biggest fan of the burger. It was fine, but the pickles are packed under all the fries. It's missing condiments. They pack some ketchup and mustard, but I need mayo too. It was only when I ate 80% of my burger when I realized. The Cuban sandwich was good and the fries are way more substantial. The pastries are good value. The apple cinnamon and the roll that they have is delicious. Everything had a good amount of butter mixed in so it was flakey. But whatever the roll is, that one is especially good. I haven't eaten at the restaurant, so not sure what the interior is like.

The menu is quite overpriced for what you actually get - the portion sizes are relatively tiny, and left me hungry after finishing. The bangers and mash, while having a good flavor, could have really used something crunchy, like warm crusty bread, crackers, or breadsticks, to contrast with the wateriness of the sauce. The service was really nice and attentive however. Between the light portions, steep check, and lack of dish balance though, the experience just didn't deliver.

I paid extra for steak and got just a few small pieces scattered throughout the bowl while it was mostly rice and chicken. They also didn't include any utensils, which is unacceptable for a delivery order when customers may not be eating at home. I understand mistakes happen, but for a $36 meal I expected much better quality control. Whether it was the kitchen or whoever packed the order, someone should have noticed that this didn't match what I paid for. I won't be ordering again unless they start making sure customers actually receive the portions they're charged for.
