    Chicken ceased wrap
    Tara Lynn O.

    Not bad but nothing too special. We took it to go so may have been better in person. Liked the idea of the loaded fries but thought the chicken could have been better. Likely won't come back

    Chicken Caesar Wrap
    Alex W.

    The chicken Caesar wrap from Little Victories has quite a lot of hype around it in the local foodie world and for good reason. It is delicious and has a great tasting, smoky flavor and is very filling for a good value. To get your sandwich, you will most likely have to wait outside in a line that goes down the block a bit for anywhere from a half hour to an hour. The greeters were extremely unpleasant during my visit and the waitstaff was not attentive whatsoever. While waiting for our drinks, our waitresses were talking with each other and it was visible that other tables were growing impatient with the service as well (hence what may be causing the wait outside most likely). The bar was jammed with standing patrons on a Saturday afternoon and the spacing of this restaurant is very loud and busy at any time of the day. This is not the type of crowd/place you would go to watch local sports teams but they will most likely have the Kentucky Derby or the Masters Golf tournament on. This restaurant has a very distinct, unwelcoming presence about it, but if you really don't mind any of this, the wrap itself is delicious. Personally, I can say I ate it once and that's enough for me.

    Been wanting to try this place last summer but finally got the chance to and the chicken Caesar wrap was so good and crunchy. The loaded fries were crispy and filled with so much flavors. They also have happy hour as well. This place is such a vibe and the service is great. Once it hit around 4:30-5pm people were pouring in and all the tables got filled. The bar has seating as well but it's a first come first serve kind of place. Loved their banana pudding dessert which was really good. I got their Mexican Coke but it was just a regular Coke, but it was still good.

    i love a good chicken caesar wrap. When i heard this place had a good one, i couldn't help but try it out. it was really good honestly, i wouldn't go out of my way to get it again, not because i didn't like it! no the wrap was great, but because the place was extremely packed and could barely move when i went. The waiter was super sweet and was very attentive even though it looked like she was the only one working that day. I also tried the loaded fries and those were really good as well.

    Had so much fun here!!!! We came on a Saturday around 12:30 and a table no problem but it filled up quickly after we got there. Definitely a good spot for lunch but also very much so has a bar vibe to it. Perfect place for a fun saturday / day drinking vibe. The food was amazing too!!! I loved the chicken caesar wrap - it was stuffed with chicken and covered in parmesan cheese. The loaded fries were also great.

    Good music, good vibes, phenomenal eats. The Caesar wrap was HUGE and can definitely be split between two people. The sauce on loaded fries was soooo good and ordering both the wrap and fries is a must! The service was nice and we received our food and drinks in under 10 minutes.

    Okay this place exceeded my expectations... with how viral this place was I was expecting chaos as soon as I walked in. Just to get the bad out of the way, when you go here expect to wait 1+ hours. It was tough. So we literally walked around the neighborhood for that 1+ hour. The other thing, "Best Fried Chicken In The World"... that's a stretch. Very good chicken, but best in the world is a BOLD statement. Okay, now to the good stuff. We ordered the Loaded Fries, Caesar Wrap, and two drinks. I couldn't tell which was better the fries or the wrap... both pretty great. Like mouth watering, I'll think about this food when I go to sleep kinda good. For the price, not too shabby either for the amount of food you get. Would I try this place again? Absolutely, most definitely. Would I wait an hour to get this food again? Absolutely not. I'll rather explore new places. The other thing is to be on the lookout for the Manager/Owner, he has eyes everywhere and they aren't welcoming eyes either. Like piercing, hurry up eat & leave kind of eyes. Thank you Little Victories, wishing the best! Keep grinding. Personal Review: 8.8/10

    Caesar wrap
    Cammi P.

    I'm such a sucker for a chicken Caesar wrap and Little Victories was the absolute best. It was the best Sunday lunch, after a long weekend, and it was absolutely delicious. You must have an ID to enter so make sure you're prepared. And, there is no take out service. While it's always really busy, my friends and I had no problem getting a table. While there are only a few menu items, they do not disappoint. We also enjoyed root beers, cheesy fries and a the banana pudding. I've been thinking about this meal ever since and I can't wait to make this my go to spot for Caesar wraps while I'm in Chicago. The ambiance feels more like a bar, it's a cute and clean restaurant with fun music. And, the delicious food makes it the perfect place!

    My friend and I came here for a drink and a late lunch. It is a very cute restaurant with lots of plants and gold trimming. We were at the bar until a table opened up. Tre served us, he was very nice and attentive! The frozen porn star martinis were absolutely delish. The Caesar wrap was absolutely insane and really lived up to the hype. I enjoyed the chicken sandwich and the fries too! All the sauces leveled up the dish, but the pleaser was my favorite. Will definitely come back!

    Came here before leaving Chicago, and the experience was just okay. We sat for about 10 minutes unsure if we were supposed to order at the bar or wait for a server. Nothing was explained upon being seated so we eventually had to ask. After waiting a good while a server finally came by and took our order. My friend got the Caesar wrap, my other friend and I split the Birdies, and another friend ordered the tenders. The food was fine, but we were surprised that we had to pay extra for sauces, since most places include at least one. Overall, not very impressed.

    Was pleasantly surprised to find that they have weekend specials which include half off bottles of wine on Sundays! The restaurant itself is very cute and even has a pool table. We ordered the chicken tender fries which came with a sauce that truly tied it together! I would love to try other items on their food menu. My only downside was the service. Staff by the door weren't very friendly and our server was kind but barely checked in on us.

    Loaded fries

    My daughter and I finally get over to Wicker park to try Little Victories, who is going viral right now for their chicken caesar wrap. First off, the vibe is chill......great music and friendly service. The bar has one pool table off to the side upon entry. Limited seating and decent patio space for outdoor dining during summertime Chi. My daughter and I ordered the loaded fries and their infamous chicken Caesar wrap (sorry guys my picture came out blurry for the wrap). Our order didn't take long to arrive and it came out hot to order. The chicken Caesar wrap was OK. Though the Caesar was flavorful, the chicken got lost in the sandwich. The chicken's flavor didn't stand out at all. However, this mother f-ing loaded fries....BOMB. They were absolutely delicious. We both weren't in the mood for cocktails but next time for sure. Would I return to Little Victories....absolutely!

    Chicken Caesar wrap by Buttermilk
    Aaron A.

    After hearing all the hype surrounding the chicken Caesar wrap, I decided to see for myself. Located within the Little Victories bar, Buttermilk provides the patrons with a quick, fulfilling meal. Unfortunately, they do not take carry-out orders so you will need to order at the bar and wait for the order. I sat down and enjoyed a high life while I awaited my order. The bar is perfect for the college crowd, but it was a little too crowded and chaotic for anyone over 30 (which I am). It was easy to see why 80% of the drinking crowd was devouring the popular wrap--it's large and filling. I did enjoy it, but I wouldn't go out of my way to get it again.

    Not a great pic but the wrap was great.

We were welcomed nicely. Service was really nice. The menu though-- drinks and food are on another level. Everything is just elevated a little bit more.

We were going to order at the counter, but we were offered paper menus and told we could take a seat in the front area if we'd like to have our coffees there. I ordered the Black Walnut & Honey latte ($7) that was really mild on flavor. My husband had the Crème Brulee latte ($10), which was better but noticeably smaller. The Cinnamon Roll ($8) was fine, but it wasn't worth $8, and it wasn't heated all the way through. Unfortunately, I didn't like the Confit Mushroom Egg & Cheese Sandwich ($6) at all. It wasn't hot, and the smell was a bit off-putting. Despite a lackluster experience, the real disappointment hadn't sunk in yet. When I got home and glanced at our receipt, I realized that they had charged a mandatory additional 20% service fee. I at first thought my husband had unexpectedly left a large tip, but I checked their menu again and saw that it says "For dine in service only: When your bill arrives, it will have a 20% service charge added to the subtotal. This we use to compensate our staff as they deserve for their exceptional work. As such no additional gratuity is expected." I have of course seen this practice done at full service restaurants, but I wasn't expecting this for a café visit simply because we chose to sit and drink our coffees there instead of taking them to go. It was a bit of an awkward space as it was, and we were still going up to the counter to get our food and drinks and carried our plates up when we were done.

It's not a upscale as it once felt, and the poor service did not help that impression. My BF was lamenting Roots in Lincoln Square closing, but mentioned the one in West Town and Homestead. Neither of us had been since before the pandemic, so we made a reservation for the next week. We arrived a few minutes early and were seated promptly. The roof is cute-- what you'd expect of a rooftop. It took 5-10 minutes for our server to make it over. We ordered drinks and asked for 2 more minutes for the food. That was a mistake. It took him at least 10 minutes to come back. We still had not received our drinks, but he said the bar was backed up. I strongly suspect he forgot to enter them, but maybe not because it took 35 minutes! During most of that time, he seemed to avoid our table so he wouldn't have to field any questions.
