    Southwest chipotle chicken pocket
    Judy S.

    We made a stop for a quick bite and ordered the chicken chipotle pocket. This is a big sandwich that eat more like a salad and a sandwich. Service was excellent in the space is very cute.

    I love going to Pockets! It's very casual but a great place to pick up a healthy lunch/dinner in Lakeview. I have enjoyed the pocket (which is kind of like a sandwich? It's not a pita), salad, and wrap. I really like the homemade honey Dijon dressing. The frozen yogurt cookie sandwich also gets five stars. Everyone who works here is really nice and friendly. Pockets is a great part of the neighborhood for an inexpensive, healthy, and tasty meal.

    Kale salad with egg.

    Came in for an early lunch on a Tuesday. The staff is kind and service is fast. The space is unadorned, relatively empty but the staff chats pretty loud in Spanish when it's slow (totally fine with this, enjoy life ladies!), so not the ideal environment for a quiet meal or teleworking although they do have wifi, but I saw no password displayed. Most patrons I see are getting pick up orders. I got a kale salad and added hard boiled eggs. It was ample, fresh and very tasty. I enjoyed the warm whole wheat pita bread served alongside. I appreciated the dressing on the side too. Overall a fine meal for the price.

    I drive an hour and 15mins to get a calzone and the ranch is the closest thing to homemade, it's very good.

    This is one of those places that feels frozen in time -- in a good way. The wood‑paneled coziness,…read morethe dim lighting, the slightly chaotic entryway where a host with a clipboard controls the fate of your evening... it all sets the tone for a meal that's equal parts ritual and indulgence. They push the Mediterranean Bread, and honestly, you should let them. It's enormous, blistered, fragrant, and arrives like a hot air balloon made of carbs. More importantly, it gives you something genuinely delicious to tear into while you wait for the pizza pot pies to emerge from whatever subterranean chamber they're baked in. It's both a starter and a survival tool. A reservation is non‑negotiable unless you enjoy contemplating your own mortality in a weekend crowd. The wait times can stretch so long you could starve to death before your name is called -- and the regulars will nod knowingly as they step around your skeleton. Plan ahead. The salads are comically oversized, the kind of portions that make you wonder if they're meant for a family of four or a single very determined marathon runner. But let's be honest: no one is here for lettuce. We're all here for the pizza pot pie, that molten, bread‑wrapped, cheese‑laden dome of joy that defies every attempt at categorization. It's not deep dish, it's not thin crust -- it's its own thing entirely, and that's the point. This is the place you bring out‑of‑town guests when you want to show them something uniquely Chicago without defaulting to the usual deep‑dish suspects. But it's also the place you come back to on your own, because once you've had that pizza pot pie, it lives rent‑free in your brain until you return.

    Nice service. pizza pot pie is a unique take. takes 30 minutes but worth the wait…read more combo grinder was great. meditation bread was made to be shared.
