Service was good cashier was helpful with my questions. Overall the place is nice, plenty of parking and will definitely be back.

    Jerk Salmon in a tomato wrap. Yum!

    This place is a nice place for a quick bite. I had the jerk salmon wrap. Although it was a bit too spicy for me, it was delicious! The place is LOUD and electric! A fun place to hangout for a super casual lunch or early dinner. The staff was friendly. They car about cleanliness and I loved to see the dining room being cleaned everytime there was a lull. I will definitely be back!

    This is a nice restaurant in a good location. I've also tried the location in Bronzeville where I feel I've enjoyed the food more. Today, we had the Tuscany panini, the tomato spinach bisque and a grilled chicken cheddar sandwich. The soup is consistently amazing. I have stopped here just for the soup a couple of times. The panini wasn't good and I wanted it to be so much because I love pesto. The pesto lacked flavor, was missing lemon or something. My son said his grilled chicken sandwich was okay. The food here could use a little more umph has been my experience. The soup is divine, though. Oh I forgot one thing. I asked for a small cup of pesto in my sandwich was dry when I made it home, they asked me for $1.10, which I found insane. The prices here are not inexpensive so to charge a customer who has spent $30 for another $1.10 for a couple squeezes of pesto just felt greedy and unreasonable.

    Inside

    Stopped here on a whim as we are not normally in this area. Sandwiches and sweets was the theme here and felt like an updated cafeteria. Spacious inside and you order at the counter. We decided on a few things: chicken cheddar croissant, Ruben panini, potato salad, sweet potato cheesecake and upgraded chips for soup. There two soups to choose from-tomato and clam chowder. I went for the clam chowder which was very good. Downside is no salt or pepper at the tables nor in the bag. They packed everything like a to go although we stayed to dine in. They also have a smoothie selection if you are interested in that. My husband liked the chicken sandwich even though the gardinera was a little tangy for him. My Ruben had a similar reaction from me. Next time I will leave off the thousand island dressing, otherwise it was good. Both sandwiches had a nice amount of cheese and meat. If you like the mustard type potato salad and sweet relish this is for you. The cheesecake was good. Lots of nuts and caramel. I could do without the added honey but still delicious. Would definitely go again.

    Chipotle Chicken Wrap with tomato wrap

    I'm usually a regular at the Hyde park location but I stopped in with a friend. I felt as though the menu is slightly different than the other one... the customer service wasn't that great... the cashier wasn't exactly friendly, but idk maybe she wasn't having a good day. The food was good, no complaints. They have a coffee bar inside this location, I don't believe the Hyde park spot has one.

    Chips that come with the Wrap
    Japhe J.

    Let me start with saying this is my first time there! I have been riding past this place for a while and I've always been intrigued and I found out it is black owned so I had to try it! I ordered the Caribbean Jerk Chicken Wrap and let me tell you how flavor full it is!!! The meat was not over or undercooked, the veggies inside and the sauce all blended together very well! It even has a little kick to it which I love! The pineapple lemonade I ordered was good as well!! The service was great, even though I ordered food Togo they treated me as if I was dinning in, they were nice and courteous! The inside is nice and spacious definitely sets the ambiance for a place you should sit down and eat. I will definitely be back to sit down and eat next time! But if you are in the area make sure you go try it!

    Cesar salad w/jerk chicken
    Erica N.

    Been a fan since the Bronzeville location was the one and only. I have tried the Beverly locale a few times and the food is just as good. I tend to get a salad or anything jerk. Call in orders are taken and recommended if you are in a rush. Everything is made to order so be prepared for a wait if dining in. Love it.

    Vegan Jerk Chicken Wrap
    Amber D.

    My cousin and I came here because it was close to her house and they have vegan options. I had also heard good things about them and wanted to give it a try. The workers there were very friendly and our food came out quick. I had the vegan jerk wrap and my cousin had a vegan chicken wrap. I thoroughly enjoyed my wrap as it wasn't too spicy and was well seasoned. You also get a choice of chips. For $10 that's a great price and I highly recommend this place!

    Chicken fiesta salad
    Sandra R.

    I hadn't been since last year, but the chicken fiesta salad was delicious! The service was great. The place was okay, but I remember not liking the seating arrangement. It could have changed since I was last there.

    Update: be mindful of ordering takeout on major holidays! I placed a takeout order two days in…read moreadvance for Father's Day and still had to wait for my food for over 45 minutes AND have nearly everything substituted because they ran out. Now, the food was still bangin' and they gave us more than enough food to compensate, but I'll probably stick to ordering at off-peak times.

    Ive been wanting to try this place for years. I went in about 11:15 am today and it was clean and…read morenice inside. It pretty much went downhill from there. No noticeable smell of bbq. Average sized menu. Odd structure for a BBQ place when you walk in. No greeting and you order in the back of the counter after standing there for 5 minutes waiting to be greeted by any of the 5 people behind the counter. Eventually I ordered a brisket sandwich, 1/2 lb rib tips, Mac n cheese, coleslaw, potato salad, banana pudding, and a Big Red pop. Right off the bat no coleslaw, no potato salad, no banana pudding. 15 minutes after open. From there I place the order - Brisket sandwich - 1/2 lb tips - Mac n cheese - Red Pop. $35.43. 11:16a.m. I'm order #5. I see order #9 leave, order #11 & 12. 36 minutes later I get my food. They cut the brisket with the grain making it stringy and chewy. Also very dry. The tips were not warm. Mac and Cheese was great, and was the best part of the meal. They also had a decent vinegar sauce. Tons of potential, but this trip was beyond disappointing. Paid Franklin BBQ prices and received Arbys quality meat. If they ran the counter cafeteria style and had you pay at the end it would trim the wait time down significantly. That and have the other 50% of the menu available. I dont think I'd return. Coming from the SW Suburbs id stay in my truck another 20-30 minutes and get Green Street Smoked Meats.

    I swear everytime I've gone into a fish place recently they've all been out of catfish, but luckily…read morenot today! This black owned business has above average standing room in the waiting area, two TVs and an ATM with a good amount of seats/benches. Seems like it might've been an old chinese food joint with a few tables, but they opted for a pure takeout experience (which is unfortunately the trend nowadays.) Since it was my first time I thought I'd try both the fish and chicken combo along with the dirty rice. The total came out to be $24 with the wait being about 15 minutes. The staff overall were nice.      After leaving the place and checking the food. I realized that the combo dinner didn't contain a roll and coleslaw like advertised which was kind of disappointing. It did have the fries though. The requested lemon pepper was there, but they also seasoned the chicken/catfish with garlic powder, salt and parsley which is fine. Everything was fried hard, but not dry which creates the perfect pleasurable crunch. The chicken and fish tasted better than a lot of the restaurants in the area with the fish having a lightness to the breading that's sorely missed. Some of the chicken was weirdly tough though as if it was slightly undercooked.      Speaking of misses we have to talk about the dirty rice. Dirty rice is one of those dishes that seems like it either is absolute perfection or an abomination with no in-between. This unfortunately falls into the latter with it not only looking boring with all brown notes, but the initial taste as well as texture being an off putting creamy rancid trip to flavor hell. After a just a few bites my stomach turned which does not bode well for this dish. I have no idea what went wrong here, but it seems like it may have been sitting out too long. Even the smell was a bit rancid. At least it has a good ratio of ground beef to rice which a lot of places skimp on. They also attempted to add in some vegetables like peppers although they are barely noticeable.       Overall Surf's up is a good spot with friendly staff, decent prices, but some issues with quality. My advice is to make sure the cooking temps are correct and consistent. Definitely make sure if food is sitting idle, that it is kept at the mandatory minimum of 140 degrees farenheit to avoid it going rancid so quickly. Also, double check the orders before sending them out or edit the menu if it is outdated.

    The staff was wonderful, friendly and helpful, and the food was good hot and fresh and packaged up…read morewith care not just thrown in a container and bagged. Will definitely go back!
