    Great sandwich and soup. Just like I remember. I asked for it toasted. The soup was fresh and wonderful. I wish it were closer to my home.

    Really amazing subs. My favorites. However, very poor and slow service. I suggest not going during the lunch time rush.

They must these changed the recipe because I don't ever remember it being like this. It needed more of the ranch dressing but seemed like a bunch of lettuce was piled on.

Comes at the right intervals , and notices all the details to ensure we have everything we need even without asking. The food is good. Their pizzas are fun although we tend to focus on their salads. We both love the Thai crunch salad although it is much better with dressing on the side because there are two dressings and that way each bite tastes a little different. We also love their Caesar dressing - creamy and flavorful. Husband got it with shrimp and it was delectably seared with a a nice charred flavor. I like their wonton salad because other than the wontons, all the salad is actually vegetables - cabbage etc. but it's a little spicy for me so I get it without the chili sauce. Their bread and olive oil is delicious if you want some bread for the table - much better than it used to be a decade ago. The bread is soft and warm. The olive oil is seasoned. Husband also likes the split pea soup which is vegetarian and quite flavorful. Overall a cozy experience. Only caveat is that the host seems to seat people strangely. So if there's a type of table or booth you like and you see it's open, just request it. He's really flexible with requests.

    What a great meal! This was the first time that our family…read moreenjoyed Georgian food, and we really loved it. We found this restaurant through the yelp reviews, and, as usual, the yelp wisdom of crowds was correct. The meal was absolutely delicious. Sorry, I can't remember the Georgian names of the dishes but the eggplant rolls filled with walnut paste, the bread with melted cheese and egg yolk and the lamb and potato stew were all great choices. The food tasted home-made, as if a grandmother had cooked for us with love in every bite. Lots of garlic - we love that. Washed down with a glass or dry red Georgian wine, a perfect pairing. We were fully satisfied with our main dishes so were not able to try dessert. Next time. The atmosphere was nice - tablecloths on the table, friendly service, not noisy. We will definitely come back next time we are in the Evanston area.

Large $16 or Small $9 Nigvziani Badrijani (Stuffed eggplant with walnut garlic paste) - liked this a lot! $24 Chkmeruli (Traditional Georgian - style oven backed chicken soaked in garlic creamy sauce served in a clay pan) - sauce was thinner than expected. Tasted really yummy! Yes garlicky but not overpowering. I love garlic so I wouldn't have been unhappy if it was more garlic forward. Chicken didn't soak the flavor as much as I expected so it needed sauce to get the flavor. Chicken a little dry. $25 Khinkali (Traditional Georgian dumplings with a twisted top, generously filled with your choice of spiced meat, cheese, or mushrooms, 5 Pieces) - loved these! My favorite dish. Expensive for 5 though, even though they are big. Meat was tender and flavorful. $25 Chakhokhbili (Traditional Georgian family style chicken dish with red peppers onions & herbs) - chicken was a little dry again. Flavors were mild, I was hoping for bold flavors. It was good just not what I expected. Perfect if you're looking for something more mild in flavor without any spice. $25 chicken Ojakhuri (Juicy marinated kabob pieces baked with potatoes and onions, seasoned with traditional Georgian spices and served sizzling in a rustic clay pan) - chicken a little dry again. Potato's were the winner here, garlicky and flavorful! Barely any onions. Price - expensive Portion - good portion, also keeping in mind price is high so it's good the portion is reasonable Service - great! Didn't check on us much though

My boyfriend and I ordered chicken to share as well as waffle fries. My daughter ordered a burger. My aunt ordered chicken as well. My uncle ordered a bowl of sorts with rice and meat. The person taking our order was friendly, patient, and told us to move tables around to accommodate our party of five plus all of the food. The staff also kept giving us free items to try as we were eating, like French fries and a banana pudding. The banana pudding was not large enough to share with everyone so I waited until I was back in the car to head to bingo and split it with my boyfriend. It tasted like banana Laffy Taffy so I am not sure how I feel about that. The breasted chicken was cooked to order, hot, crispy, and had a little kick to it. The rice was flavorful. The onion rings were okay. The waffle fries were definitely superior to the traditional ones. The hamburger was good! The restaurant space was clean, quiet, and spacious. I would make the drive for the broasted chicken again! I wish The Fry Fusion all the success!

We ordered the zinger burger combo meal, 6 piece chicken, mango lassi, and lotus pudding. The food had generous portions. The chicken skin was very crispy and the meat was juicy. The sauce definitely adds another layer to it. I really enjoyed the zinger burger. Lotus pudding is highly recommended, it's not sweet or salty. Prices were fair. I would come back.

The Porch goes along with the casual home theme. Actually seems a lot like eating in an employee cafeteria. You get a little more upscale items but still basic breakfast and lunch. Found out after hearing about how there's a Wayfair store around. It's the first of its kind. This just opened last year. Had to go look around. Lots of useless junk at okay prices. A pretty funny thing going to a store to eat. Okay but whatever. It's about $4 for a latte. The Matcha Latte was pretty good and there's non dairy milks including oat. A mostly basic menu of breakfast and lunch items. It's $9 for Avocado Toast. A pretty common looking version of it. This comes topped with olive oil, sesame seeds, and spring mix. Among the other items are charcuteries. There's cheeses, smoked meats, and other stuff. Great cleanliness and the service was fine enough. It's just pretty basic stuff. This is open daily even on the weekends.

We almost had the cafe to ourselves in the early evening and sat at one of the large booths. You order at the counter and the menu is familiar, soups, salads, sandwiches. My friend ordered the creamy tomato soup, which comes with some toasted bread and I ordered the cilantro and lime salad with salmon. There were mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, toasted seeds and tortilla strips ( a little stale) nicely dressed with cilantro and tangy citrus. The salmon was cooked well. The wait person brought our drinks quickly and then timed our food to come out together, after a short wait. He checked on us, refilled drinks, took away plates and gave us a lemon ricotta cookie, gratis. It was almost like a biscuit with a nice lemony and tart frosting. As I remember it, the cafe can be busy and crowded at lunch but for dinner it's rather quiet and sleepy. My friend and I were able to catch up without being disturbed or rushed.
