    There is very little to say about this, but they have the BEST authentic churros ever. Filled with vanilla and chocolate? Yes please! I always come here if I'm visiting Pilsen. Worth the drive!

    Plain Churro and Chocolate filled Churro

    I recently tried this churro spot based on recommendation. Now let me say this, I'm not really a Churro guy, sure I've had them but I never sit around and say hey I could sure go for a Churro. With that being said I tried this place. The first thing I notice is they have a really cool way of adding filling to the churros. Basically a machine that infuses them straight through the center. As for the actual churros they were warm and fresh. The lady added the chocolate filling than she rolled it in sugar. Overall it was decent to me. If you love churros you might like it better.

    I drive about an hour just to come to this churro place! The staff is so friendly and their churros are phenomenal! By far the best churros you will find!

    It's a great place to stop in to get yourself some churros on the go. The lady working here was very kind and welcoming. They offer different flavors for their filling, like strawberry, vanilla, chocolate, caramel, cheese, and guava. They also offer homemade bunuelos as well. Once you ask for your churros, she will as you if you want some sugar on your churros. The correct answer here would be YES. Churros here and very inexpensive and very tasty and warm. Not really a complaint, but I've been to another churro places that make the churros as you order them. They'll put the batter in the fryer and fill it with your flavor in front of you. This would be a nice touch of Don Churro started doing that. Still Don Churro is the ish and will be returning soon.

    SO glad we stumbled upon this unassuming little churro spot on the southwest side of the city. We were picking up tacos across the street...... and my sweet tooth could not hold itself back. I. Needed. Churros. We walked in and it's a tiny inside, no seats, no tables, just delicious smelling churros and a sweet lady working behind the counter. I ordered a caramel and a chocolate churro, boyfriend got two strawberry churros. I ate mine immediately in the car (duh), and they were still so fresh and warm. These churros are INSANE. Probably some of the best I've had. Perfect amount of sprinkled sugar coating, crisp & freshly fried outside, warm soft inside. The filling was the perfect amount, and it didn't take away from the taste of the churro itself. All in all, I suggest anyone that is nearby (or not) to come check this place out. And also bring me one too :)

    Have you ever followed your sweet tooth somewhere totally out the way but so glad you did? Did you go to Don Churro? O-M-G YES! Like many others, we were getting tacos across the street and I saw Don churro from the window. Unfortunately, that time we did not go to Don Churro. I woke up one Saturday and had Don Churro resounding in my head, a must try. I engaged on a trip from the northwest side of the city to Pilsen just for Don Churro. I mean I stopped for tacos too but I swear, that trip was for Churros. Don Churro I kind of like a "grab and go" type of store with no real places to sit and enjoy churro. It's a "on-the-go" type of snack anyway, I was not mad. I was greeted by a friendly man and they had all the different freshly made and filled churros on display. There is a choice of chocolate, vanilla, caramel, strawberry, and Bavarian crème. Seriously, it smells like heaven in there. The smells alone are filling. If you are there long enough, you might even be able to see the magic filling happening, I was not but I bet it looks super cool. I did see the large containers holding the chocolate, vanilla, strawberry inside. For fillings. MAGICAL FILLINGS! Prices were $1.25 a piece and so damn worth it. They make other stuff too, I only came for the churros though. Prices were cheap and the churros were chewy, crispy and fried until golden perfection and tossed on Cini-sugar mix. I was not disappointed and Don Churro made my trip well worth it.

    Love this Churro place! I walked by while checking out the Pilsen murals and the Churro smell got me. It was amazing and still warm with cinnamon and sugar with the caramel filling. The churros were not overly stuffed nor sweet. Also loved that they had Abuelita hot chocolate too! The man at the shop was friendly and they had other goodies to try like Bunuelos. Wish I could gotten more but they were cash only!

    Wendy H.

    Omg. Their churros are so good! They're crunchy, not too oily, and addictive. It's a small place but they definitely know what they're doing. Credit card charges have an additional charge of 50¢ but it's so cheap that I don't mind. So far I've only tried the plain.

    VEGAN CHURROS! This is unheard of
    Stone Z.

    Amazing! I've never heard of vegan churros being sold anywhere! They have 4 vegan flavors- plain, Bavarian creme, strawberry, and guava. This is so authentic too! Maybe the only authentic vegan churro place on Earth? Who knows! So, being authentic, the person who works here tends to only speak Spanish, but luckily I have a solution for those of you that don't really speak it. Granted I'm not fluent so these might be flawed but she will get the drift. AN ORDER TEMPLATE: Want one churro? Say "quiero un churro (flavor name)" Want more than one? "Quiero (number in Spanish) churros (flavor) y (if you want more just do the y pronounced "e" and continue!) Gracias, adios! - thank you, goodbye! I personally called and asked if the churros had egg or milk. The lady was so kind to me! The churros are really tasty too, I'm so glad I had the opportunity to taste a churro again after 7 years of being vegan. Please give this space a try and leave a review! The more times people mention their vegan options the more people will know and the more business they'll have!

    When I saw this churro shop I squealed! There are few things better than a fresh and warm, crunchy churro. I seriously couldn't get in the door quick enough. They had 4 or 5 different flavor choices. I tried the chocolate. It was good but a little stale. We walked in two minutes before closing and I'm sure that was part of it. The flavor of the churro was great and I'm sure when they are warm they are unbelievable. One of my friends tried a vanilla and that was his favorite. This is definitely a hidden gem!

It's located opposite of the cash register and menu. Service was friendly. Washroom (restroom, bathroom search terms) available. Decent amount of seating, serving as a solid space to study or get work done. Black Sesame Matcha Latte - while the black sesame graininess settled at the bottom expectedly, the matcha was clearly whisked well. There were no clumps of bitterness to be found. Despite sugar adjustments, this was still very sweet so I'd classify the spot as more desserty rather than strong matcha or a cafe. Though I'm happy to be proven wrong with their regular matcha in the future.

    I recently tried UFOUU, the Chicago-based bakery known for their Japanese-style cheesecakes, and…read moreoverall it was a really a hit for me. I wish I was able to travel with one of their cheesecakes but they require refrigeration. Anyhow the cheesecake itself was delicious super light, fluffy, and honestly felt like biting into a cloud. I had the salted egg but they had several flavor options that I would've loved to try if slices were available. The texture is what really stands out, and the flavor was unique and interesting in a good way. I couldn't quite put my finger on what it taste like, but it was sweet, but not too sweet They only sale but I consider a personal size but it's definitely enough to share with two people, maybe even three depending on how much of a sweet tooth you have. My only downside like others is the price. Paying around $19-$20 for a small cheesecake felt a bit steep, especially since they don't offer slices. I really wish they had smaller portions available so you could try different flavors without committing to a full cake prize. They package it very well and they also serve you a cute little fork set and a knife for cutting which I think is contributes to the price. The shop itself is very cute with chic décor and a lot of Asian-inspired artwork, which adds to the overall vibe. Customer service was friendly. When I visit Chicago again I'd definitely go back the texture and taste alone make it worth it but I do hope they consider offering smaller portions in the future.

The taiwanese style popcorn chicken and pork cutlet were super juicy and tender with nicely crisp breading.

Finally, the broth of the Sichuan noodles was packing with flavor: sweet, tangy, spicy, umami - truly hit all the spots without being too numbing to your mouth, if thats one of your concerns Would definitely return to try the other menu items, especially their hot sizzling plates and their dessert/drink offerings
