    Jay trio
    NiNi F.

    Byob establishment: As you first walk in it gives me basement vibes. That can be a good/bad thing. The place is extra small. There is no place to wait. The high top chairs are not made for people with hips or larger butts. They are uncomfortable. My friend and I were sat near the restroom with the heat blowing right on us. Not complaining about the warmth of the place but a bit bothersome with it blowing directly on you. Teiana was nice and came in a timely manner. We had no issue with service. The rating is strictly on the food. The menu doesn't state it but the entrees do come with 2 sides. We shared the Jay's trio. My friend ordered an a la carte lobster and I added a side of Mac and cheese. We ordered the lamb chops med well. They came out well done and a bit tough to cut. The salmon was bland. Unbeknownst to us, they poured an Alfredo sauce over the mash potatoes. The sauce was good but would've preferred on the side. The shrimp was seasoned well. The Mac and cheese was 3/5. We tried the peach cobbler and definitely do not recommend because when did jelly,compote, or whatever it was start getting used in cobbler??

    3.75 stars. Street paid meter parking. BYOB. Place is kinda small but clearly lots of food service pickup Service was good. The individuals were attentive. The reservation part frustrated me as we asked for a specific time and the delay in communication created uncertainty. Then we were confirmed for a time that wasn't requested. The food was pretty good. Whole red snapper... Battered beautifully and full of flavor. The oysters were very small and I feel like out of six 3 were standard size. I would have loved a bit more garlic oil. Macaroni and cheese was good Broccoli was cooked perfectly. Asparagus was also cooked perfectly as it still had a crunch.

    5 Lamb Chops . Steak macaroni, yams, collard greens, and oysters.

    Me and my husband went up here for a little date night. It was his decision to pick and might I say this place was wonderful. It's very small but the food is so big. The service was so good. The manager was coming over to check on us the recommendations that she gave us for food was good and the oysters OMG, the oysters Was so good.

    This was my first visit to Truffle, and unfortunately, perhaps my last. It was on my radar as I have dedicated most of my dining out to explore Chicago's best Black owned restaurants and bars. It was Truffle's turn to dazzle me and my partner with amazing southern-inspired cuisine. But my real-life experience was less than amazing. I will give Truffle 2 stars: one for excellent friendly service and another for presentation. Upon entering the establishment, you'll find it quite cramped with no immediate place to wait for your table. We opted to sit at the bar. BYOB, so no fancy cocktail offerings. The bar seats were quite uncomfortable as was the frigid temperature we endured being next to the large windows. Now back to the food. After scanning their offerings, I was drawn to the absurd and astounding price of 6 whole chicken wings at the cost of $30!!!! After looking at the price points on the entire menu, consensus between my partner and I that these prices would be indicative of a fine dining experience on Chicago's Gold Coast somewhere. I shook my head, then we ordered a side of greens, and one order of Buffalo shrimp (5 medium sized shrimp) which came with overly salted fries. We sent back the fries and were accommodated with unsalted fries. Nothing else was ordered. After the tax, tip and gratuity for two items (an appetizer and 1 side), the bill totaled to just over thirty one dollars! Needless to say, Truffle, thanks but no thanks.

    Decided to slide here on a Saturday afternoon and overall this place was pretty cool for the most part! I ordered Red Snapper dinner with Mac and cheese and Collard Greens! Red snapper was pretty good and so was the Mac and cheese!! The greens were a lil too spicy and salty that was the only bad part! I liked the fact that this place is byob and they serve complimentary mimosas! The service was pretty cool and the food didn't take long at all. I will definitely be back!!!

    Went while visiting friends in the city, ended up inviting our family that were also in town. This venue is new, no one had tried it. They're trying to be upscale but fell flat. Chairs are wobbly & hazardous. Our server was so unprofessional it was awkward. She literally sat down at a hightop behind our table to take our order. Prices are too high. Custom lemonade were a joke for $9. I ordered a pineapple lemonade & it was horrible. Not sure how you mess up lemonade. Others were disappointed with their but I was only one to send mine back. Food choices were made were half & half. They ran out of fish so only one guest could order. Out of two salmon orders, one was good & the other must have been frozen. It came out a long time after everyone else's & was not prepared or presented the same, didn't get photo. Greens were inedible and way too salty. Egg rolls, Sweet potatoes & Macaroni & cheese were delicious. I stayed safe with shrimp & my husband enjoyed his jersey pasta dish. 20% Gratuity is too much for the basic service we were given. But we were a table of 6 so we understand the hike. I would not return.

    Really good food! Everything was delicious, well seasoned and cooked to perfection. Taya's service was impeccable! The place is kinda small but the flavors were really on point.

    Salmon Sliders

    I love Black-owned businesses My sister and I just finished church and were looking for a place to get something to eat. This new restaurant called Truffle was suggested, and it just so happened to be in the area I used to live in, so I was excited to try it out. The location is a nice size, almost Café style. The interior is sleek black with tables for two, but it can easily be put together if you have a larger group. They have a small bar, and the restroom is clean. They had one staff who was very accommodating and knowledgeable about the menu. The prices were decent, not too expensive. My sister got the salmon sliders, which she enjoyed. I got the chicken and French toast with a side of breakfast potatoes and eggs, which were good. The waiter asked me if I wanted strawberries on my French toast, which I was happy to accept; I would note that it was strawberry jam and not strawberries. Another interesting note was that they did not have ketchup or coffee, but they did have orange juice, hot sauce, and ranch. If ever in the future, I would suggest they add coffee to their menu. It is a trendy item, as is ketchup. All the food was seasoned very well, and I even met the chef. It was a very nice first experience. I would try out Truffle again, and I genuinely hope this business does well. Try Truffle if you're in the area and would like something different in Pilsen. On the first experience, solid 3 1/2 out of 5

    Chicken Alfredo

    I ordered DoorDash and got the chicken Alfredo with fried chicken. It came with a piece of bread and everything was delicious ! Super crispy chicken and well flavored Alfredo. HUGE portion !

    The food was Awesome ad the service was Amazing. The Ambiance was off the chain . And the young man that was seating us make it a special day for my sister birthday.

    See all

With a cozy locals vibe, there was a mix of young professionals on laptops and families starting the morning. The bright aesethics of Mexican heritage and decor celebrating local artists make the space inspiring and energizing. The coffee was great. I got the horchata latte, which tasted even better than I hoped. I also ordered a El Chavo Torta, a deceptively simple sandwich that was incredibly delicious. I don't know what they put in the bread or what magical place they bought the cheese from, but my mouth is watering just thinking about it. When I'm in Chicago again, La Malinche is on my list of must visit spots.

The staff were really welcoming, for an early morning. I got the hot chocolate. Honestly that's exactly what I needed that morning. It had that real Mexican chocolate taste. Thick, creamy, smooth and rich. The cinnamon came through warm but not too strong, plus a little extra on top that hit your nose before the first sip. Sweet and it almost had this slight earthy note too... hard to explain but good. It even had that little design on top, like the ones they do on cappuccinos. Didn't expect that but it was cool. I finished it slow. Didn't wanna rush it. Just sat there taking small sips and enjoying it while it was still hot.

    Not sure why I had not reviewed this soot earlier, I come here often, in fact I'm here right now…read more Great spot! Set in an old warehouse that is now an art gallery event space and restaurant nestled in an older warehouse district in Bridgeport neighborhood of Chicago. Beautiful decor and laid out perfectly. The natural wood floors furniture ie tables chairs etc and iron work throughout sets the ambiance for old meets new. It works. The wide spacing between tables makes for a comfortable dining experience. So many folks come in to do their work and dine here. What a super addition to the neighborhood that less than a decade ago was essentially a street that was more a run down semi-truck alley. Great menu with neighborhood favorites leaning toward the old school Italian dishes. Sandwiches, soups, salads, and breakfasts just to name a few are all excellent. The pastries are insane and a must take home deal. I love the American Breakfast. Three eggs your way, thick diced America potatoes, thick cut bacon, and sourdough toast. Accompanied by what I believe to be home made jelly and for sure homemade gardiniera. Caruso's gardiniera actually. Diced into a relish unlike most standard gardiniera it's easier to eat with many dishes. Excellent flavor and just the right kick to it. FYI Dolce Arte also sells a to go line of homemade Caruso products from their gardiniera to past and past sauces and more. Yes, their coffee is really good too. Lavazza products I believe. The service is always on point. Casual but on point. Very friendly staff from diverse backgrounds. This is the place you bring people close to you, business lunches, meetings, formal ir informal, or like me, save it for myself as my own getaway spot. It's an artists dream and sets a positive time for any gathering.

    This southside coffee shops offered a variety of drinks (caffeinated/ non-caffeinated option) but…read morethe best part in my option is their flights. Why would you not order a flight to try a variety of drinks all at once? We had the hibiscus lemonade and matcha flight, the mango con crema and banana con crema were the standouts. We went on a weekend and there was a long line but it moved pretty quickly. Limited seating space but there are also chairs and tables on the outside. Street parking available. They also offer brunch food items which we did not get to try. But overall cute shop with a variety of speciality drinks that I will definitely try in the future.

    Stockyard Coffee House in Chicago, Illinois. Overall, I really liked it. The only small downside…read morewas that it felt a bit warm inside, probably because it was already a hot day outside. The staff--at least the person who helped me--didn't feel super welcoming. Not that they were rude, just not particularly warm either. I get it though, because even I get a little irritable when it's hot, so maybe that played a part. What I love the most is that it's Latina-owned, and that's something I truly admire. I always try to support Latino entrepreneurs when they're doing things right, and this place is definitely doing something creative. We ordered two flights--one with coffee and one with matcha. Each flight comes with four small samples, and they were all seasonal fall flavors, which I thought was such a fun and unique idea. It's cool because you get to try different drinks in little cups, almost like a tasting experience. The coffee flight (we got it iced) was amazing--the flavors were bold and had that strong coffee taste I personally love. The matcha flight was also fun, but I would have preferred a stronger matcha flavor in some of them. They also have plenty of milk options--we ordered ours with oat milk and it was delicious. On top of that, they have a pretty wide food menu with bagels, sandwiches, wraps, and more. We tried the tuna sandwich and it was really good, definitely worth recommending. The café has little chairs outside, the vibe inside is cozy, and I loved that they were playing Spanish music. That's something you don't usually find in most coffee shops here, and it gave the place extra personality. The only thing I'm still unsure about is the price. For two flights (coffee + matcha) and the sandwich, the total was around $55. Maybe that's a bit expensive--or maybe it's just the nature of ordering flights, since I had never tried that before. Either way, it was worth it for the experience and the flavors. In short, it's a cute, cozy, and creative spot that's definitely worth checking out--especially if you're into seasonal flavors, want to try something unique, and love supporting Latina-owned businesses in Chicago.
