Everything I tried was great! I would recommend the chilaquiles and add skirt steak. They have a churro espresso martini!

This place is absolutely delicious!!!!!!!! Foood 10000x/10 every time I go I eat chilaquiles de mole and they are fire it's my go too.

Turned away at the door despite them having seats and being open at 12:30pm. They said they were just busy with a catering order. Never coming here again. read more

Food was amazing likewise the drinks!! The service was nice and fast. The overall ambiance of the place was very nice and comforting!

, Chicago, IL I woke up on a Sunday morning craving to go to Un Amor in West Town Chicago. This neighborhood, family run gem pulls you with a welcoming, clean, simply modern environment with mid/rustic murals that give you a hug. The heart and soul of the Guzman family, who have poured their heritage and passion into every corner of this gem. The son is the young chef with bright ideas and cooking skills that deliver. The beautiful daughters, Stephanie and Karla, touch every part of this place from behind the bar to making this place buzz with fun and good times. This isn't just another brunch spot -- Un Amor delivers inventive, fun, and flavor-packed dishes that capture the essence of Mexico. The Guzmans regularly travel to different regions of Mexico, sourcing local ingredients and authentic inspiration to keep the menu dynamic and true to its roots. The highlight? Matriarch Magdalena's legendary mole -- a slow-cooked labor of love featuring over 70 ingredients. Rich, complex, and deeply satisfying, it's the kind of dish you remember long after the last bite. Pair that with the hibiscus margarita, crafted by the ever-charming uncle, and you've got liquid gold in a glass. Good luck prying the recipe out of him -- it's a closely guarded family secret and for good reason. It's nothing short of ambrosia. Whether you're here for breakfast, brunch, or just a moment of culinary joy, Un Amor delivers a soulful experience that leaves your tastebuds tingling and your heart full. A true testament to what happens when tradition, creativity, and family love come together on a plate. read more

The food and service were terrific! Their website says they treat you like family, and they indeed do. I had the "special" braised short-rib bowl and maiz empanada and ate every bite! You must come and support this family-owned business by enjoying a fantastic meal! read more

The food is amazing and there is a wide selection! The drinks and happy hour are also great and I feel taken care of whenever I go

We came for the first time to Un Amor to celebrate my sons golden birthday today. We chose it based on it being an independent family owned business with food made from scratch. We started with ube horchata lattes and delicious empanadas. 2 of us had the mole chilaquiles with added steak. The mole was the best we ever had with the perfect sweet and heat! The steak was tender with a fresh green garnish. My son enjoyed the chicken and waffles and daughter loved her brisket skillet. Dennis greeted us with a friendly smile, Stephanie our server was very nice, efficient and had great suggestions! The owner even came over to thank US for supporting them. But a big TY for the great food, atmosphere and service! read more

New place that recently opened up near my airbnb with some amazing pictures and good looking food so definitely had to try. I got the Chilequiles de Mole as well as French Toast Slider (they let you get to try all three french toast they have for the same price as one!) For the Chilequiles de Mole, a solid 8/10. I had gotten it with chorizo and for me, the chorizo was a bit too overcooked and dry for me, but the flavor was still very nice. This combined with the Mole sauce made a nice earthy yet meaty flavor which was amazing with the Chilequiles. What brought this down on star for me though was the french toast slider, 3/10. Although the plating and picturesque appearance of the toast was stunning, the flavor was just not there. The bread was very bland and dry and the fruits they used were really sour. It was as if they just barely coated the outside of the bread with whatever topping the french toast was for and then ignored the inside of it so the center was also just eating normal bread. It took forever to get through one piece and we ultimately decided we couldn't even finish it after trying all three as we didn't like any of them. Overall, would definitely love to go to try their other entree menu items, but would not get the toast :( read more

This fusion of Mexican, Argentinian and Ecuadorean fare left my family and I so enamored with our meal we were still talking about it hours after we'd left! First, we were grateful they were able to accommodate six adults and a toddler easily, and the staff was so nice! They even brightened up the area we were seated a little, which was extremely considerate and allowed us to take in the simple beauty of the restaurant's ambiance. Then we had the most sensational corn, chips and guacamole and tacos - all of which were flavorful but not overpowering. And I thoroughly enjoyed my hibiscus mule mocktail. In short: We fell in love with Un Amor and highly recommend experiencing it yourself! read more

We came here at 10:30am today (a Sunday). It's a pretty, bright and airy space. We brought our 11 month old and were promptly seated with a high chair (we saw other parents with little ones stroll in and out so it's a nice space that is also child friendly). I got a mojito that was delightful while the husband got a drink of half orange juice and half grapefruit juice. I ordered the mole chilaquiles while the husband got the smash burger. Both were really good. Service was great. Wasn't loud in there, no annoying music making it hard to converse. We will definitely be back! read more

Amazing! The food, the space, the staff...all amazing! The hardest part was making a decision on what to order. I had to try the mole chilaquiles. The mole is homemade and made in house (yes, all the 20+ ingredients!). It's sooo flavorful I wish I could take some home. The carne asada bowl is also a huge hit! There's so much flavor in the steak, tender and delicious. The potatoes are properly seasoned you don't even need to add any sort of condiment like at other breakfast spots. Lastly, and probably the best and first in Chicago, Wagyu quesabirria. Wowwwww! It's like butter, and the flavor is all there. I love that they give you the cilantro, onion, and salsa on the side. Dress it like you like :) Definitely coming back to try something else! This menu has so many great options! read more

We were lucky enough to hear about this place when we were visiting Chicago. We came for brunch on a Saturday. We showed up when they opened, which turned out to be a good idea because it filled up pretty quickly. The empanadas were outstanding, quite possibly the best we've ever had. The cochinita pibil tostada, complete with fried egg on top, was also amazing. Everyone we came with said what they had was wonderful. I only find myself in Chicago once in a while, but I'd go well out of my way just to get those empanadas again. The staff was very friendly and helpful, and the place itself is friendly and inviting. We will be back for sure! read more

Ok but this place slaps like the food in the pictures are as good as they look! The steak and egg sando, empanadas were bomb.com paired with the bottomless mimos was a good paring. I'd like to say gerry was our server and she was so great and kind, always checked up on us and had great conversations with us. First time there, I'm sure it's bz on the weekends, but came on the weekday. I highly recommend and you won't be disappointed. read more

I had a fabulous birthday brunch here. Carla, our waitress, was immensely sweet and helpful guiding us through the menu. The space is really nicely decorated and clean, and the playlist was pretty varied mix of Latin and hip-hop hits. The food and drinks were timely and everything was tasty and well made. Would love to come back and try some other options and catch a happy hour. My only suggestion would be to put those fantastic off-menu empanadas on the menu somewhere because people have to try them, they're delicious. read more

As soon as we got here there (group of 12) Stefanie the host greeted us and had our table ready. She brought us appetizers and delicious cocktail drinks to start the vive. The entire experience was a 10! The owner Dennis came to great us and welcome us and Magdalena made sure everything was running smoothly and at a good pace. U must come try their food and coffe in the AM or host a party read more

Came with a friend on a Wednesday for brunch. Such a low key and clean spot with the friendliest staff and great mellow music. Geri was our server and recommended the Cachete empanada to start. My friend started with the bottomless mimosas and I settled with the ube latte as our beverages, both were so tasty. We ordered the French toast flight and strip steak sandwich. The portions were more than enough for 2 people and everything tasted great. The French toast were topped generously with toppings and were all different yet complimentary to each other. This steak sandwich was just *chefs kiss*. The steak was flavorful and tender, the roasted and caramelized onions and peppers, aioli, chimichurri, and hard boiled eggs all came together for a filling and umami rich experience. Would definitely come back to try the other things on their menu. read more

Food was not good. The chilaquiles didn't have enough sauce and the chicken tasted strange. Do not recommend.

Visiting from Michigan and had a good feeling about this place when I saw it on Yelp. I was not disappointed! The interior and ambiance was amazing. It was pretty busy but I was able to find a spot at the bar and ordered a mimosa and the berry french toast. LET ME TELL YOUUUUU this French toast was the best I ever had it was perfectly cooked and fluffy. If I wasn't going out after this stop I would have taken it home. The service while sitting at the bar was top notch! If I lived in Chicago, this would be one of my go to places for sure! read more

We came in with a group of 6 on a Sunday morning and were seated right away. The inside is super cute, fun music playing, nice aesthetic. Every single dish we saw come out of the kitchen looked so good, we all had a hard time deciding what to order. We got breakfast tacos, the smash burger, and a carne asada bowl. Everything was delicious! We also ordered some drinks (including bottomless mimosas) and we were replenished really quickly. Would absolutely come back if we were traveling in the area again. read more

Great addition to the neighborhood. Upbeat vibes and friendly service. Banging menu if a little light on veg options. Good cocktails and extremely tight brunch service - this is one of the few GOOD brunch spots that isn't impossible to find a table Saturday morning (for now). I'm excited to come back to try more. read more

Un Amor is amazing! The best tamarindo margarita I've had in my life and I'm from The Bay Area, California and we love Tamarindo! We ordered the Chilaquiles Verdes with steak; the chips were crispy and the salsa was fireeee and the lime taste was just right. Back to the steak -- I ordered it medium rare and it was perfect. Plantains, bacon, eggs were also good. Highly Recommend for a lil brunch! Inside is a cute vibe with nice finishes and super clean. The owner is kind and warm and so was my serve Nico who helped me with my indecision about what to get. Wishing y'all great business! read more

My husband loves chilaquiles and we've been on the hunt for a place to replace Tilly's on Halstead or Kingsbury Cafe that both closed. Un Amor was very good. It was very clean and stylish with a nice vibe. The service is a standout, with some really great service and attention. It was like visiting someone's home, they made us feel very welcome and made some great suggestions for food selections. The chilaquiles were very good with homemade chips that were nice and crunchy and the sauce was yummy. Great food. We will come again, again! read more

I hate to write this restaurant because, it was so good and there was no wait. Highly recommended. We went there for a brunch with another restaurant had too long of a wait.

Very cool that a lot of the recipes are from their family. read more
