    Jerk Chicken Salad Wrap
    Money F.

    Today I had Jerk Chicken Salad Wrap on tomato wrap with tomato bisque soup. 'Over the top delicious'. PLENTY of chicken in every bite. The soup! the soup! da soup was AMAZING! Quick service for a Saturday afternoon. The staff is always nice and friendly.

    Been craving a wrap so decided to hit this spot up. Orders the jerk chicken salad wrap and this joint was GOOD!!! Jerk got just the right heat and seasoned very well. 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.

    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

    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.

Though usually one for a hot coffee, it was steamy hot out so I went for an iced vanilla latte with oat milk and was wildly impressed. I was going to sit for a bit so had the latte for there and it was icy cold and the vanilla flavoring was brilliantly paired to the really good espresso notes within the latte. I also went for a Financier, which is a gluten-free banana bread sort of loaf and this was downright silly how good it was. It had a rich banana and sort of caramel flavor to it and as a gluten-free pastry option was one of the finest that I have had. Love that the coffee shop had just about every seat full with people doing work, studying, reading and catching up and the spot was a true neighborhood gem sort of location. Awesome spot!

The Bacon, Egg & Cheese Breakfast Sandwich (7/10) is only available Saturday and Sunday. The egg was soft, the bacon was crispy, and the brioche bun was nice and soft. The mayo-based sauce was flavorful, but there was almost a little too much for me. I liked how the sandwich wasn't dry though.

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.

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.
