Good food and nice portions, but the price is several dollars more than what I usually pay for the same at breakfast restaurants through Greater Chicago. I have not been for lunch.

Help yourself to the soda and coffee stations then pay for your meal at the register. There's plenty of seating in their dining room or take your meal to go. We brunched here before heading to Ceres. Husband had a two egg breakfast with bacon and hashbrowns and I ordered their fish sandwich. My husband's breakfast was average. I didn't like my fish sandwich for several reasons. They don't pile the fish on like they used to and the fish was substandard. The filets lacked heft and tasted bland. Tartar sauce leaned sweet versus tangy. The fries that came with it were dry and flavorless. As lunch hour approached people trickled in ordering mainly salads. I've been told the salad bar is extensive and supposedly pretty good. Had I known this I would've ordered from the salad bar instead. Not sure if I would return but maybe I just ordered the wrong thing.

The atmosphere is relaxed, the prices are surprisingly reasonable for a major downtown area, and the portions are consistently generous. The staff really makes the place stand out. The servers are genuinely friendly, attentive, and clearly take pride in what they do -- especially Karen, who always goes out of her way to make people feel welcome. Food comes out fast, hot, and fresh every time, whether you're stopping in for a quick breakfast or a laid-back lunch. A hidden gem that deserves far more attention than it gets.

We both immediately felt something was off. The restaurant looked dirty, with stained walls, stained couches, and dirty tables. The food was also disappointing. We ordered the country fried chicken with gravy, and the chicken tasted like a frozen patty straight from the grocery store. The pancakes were the only bright spot. Service didn't help. Our server wasn't welcoming, never introduced himself, and didn't check on us once during the meal. I ALWAYS tip regardless, unless the experience is truly bad. This was one of those rare times. What happened next completely confirmed how disappointing this experience was. As we were leaving, our server noticed there was no tip and actually came outside to confront me about it. That was incredibly unprofessional and uncomfortable. If the same energy had gone into cleanliness, service, and food quality, this review would likely be very different.

Save yourself the trouble and don't bother ordering ahead. They won't make it in advance, and you'll still end up standing around wondering if your lettuce is being grown to order.

A kiosk was available to order from when we arrived though I wish we could order directly from an associate. We ordered a small lemonade, 2 regular size fries, 1 shack burger on a lettuce wrap and a plain single cheeseburger (no bun as well) on a lettuce wrap. I wish there was an option for no lettuce wrap - just burger patty and cheese..for a picky kiddo. When I received the text message that said our order was ready I headed to the counter but it wasn't ready. The associate had attitude when I said I'm here to grab my order. It probably took another minute or two for my food to be ready. Not sure why they ask for a tip via the kiosk if I'm taking my own order and also waiting and grabbing my own order. Otherwise the food tasted great but it's an expensive option for fast casual burgers. Lots of places to sit if not in the restaurant but the entire lobby is made up of tables. We sat right outside the entrance at a shake shack table.

This particular location doesn't make much sense to go to unless you work in the Loop or you're visiting Sears Tower on vacation with the fam. There's a food court where you can eat at the base of the tower and this location is open a bit later than the other places, which is very convenient. Side note: Moral comparison of Shake Shack vs In-N-Out. While these two chains are compared, they should not be. The shack is clearly higher in quality, but also higher in price and has 0 points for nostalgia. They only have similar burger sauces. If you are visiting from Cali, know that the comparison is FALSE. MISINFORMATION.

I was in Chicago for a very specific mission: get my passport situation sorted before an…read moreinternational trip. Stress levels were high, but thankfully the folks at the Chicago Passport Agency had everything moving smoothly. With a little time before heading back to pick it up, I figured I should grab lunch. That's when Flaco's Tacos, just a couple doors down, started calling my name. And I'm really glad I listened. The moment I walked in I thought, yep...this is the spot. No gimmicks. No trendy taco fusion experiments. Just the unmistakable signs of a legit taqueria: a Mexican mama working the kitchen in the back, the smell of grilled meat filling the air, and a cooler full of aguas frescas ready to go. I ordered three tacos: al pastor, grilled fish, and carne asada. This was the real deal. No sour cream. No piles of shredded cheese. Just onions, cilantro, and a little squeeze of lime if you want it. The al pastor was the star of the show--perfectly seasoned, juicy, and so flavorful it honestly didn't even need the lime. The grilled fish taco had a great sauce that added flavor without overpowering the fish. And the carne asada was everything a classic street taco should be--simple, savory, and excellent with a little salsa verde. And don't get me started on the Agua de Jamaica. It might seem like a small detail, but the woman serving me filled the cup with just the right amount of ice--cold and refreshing without watering it down. It was the perfect companion to a plate of tacos. You can keep your fancy tacos. Give me Flaco's tacos and a cold Jamaica any day. And honestly? If every passport emergency ended with tacos like this, I wouldn't mind renewing mine a little more often.

All around, really solid experience. Fast service, good portions, and great flavor can't ask for much more from a late-night spot.
