Amazing! One of the best meals I've had! Everything was…read morephenomenal. We shared a few appetizers: beet tartare with plantain chips, sweet potato empanadas with chimichurri, crab cakes, and cheese curds with ranch. All awesome! The cheese curds are extremely addictive. You've been warned. The soup of the day was potato leek and I enjoyed my cup. I loved my Brussels and Kale salad!! Best salad I've had in a long time. Every bite was bursting with flavor. It was well balanced and perfect. My boyfriend really liked his salmon entree and my friend enjoyed his Cobb Salad. Fantastic cocktails too. Very smooth espresso martini and the Lavender Rita had a nice kick to it. Excellent and attentive service. Beautiful restaurant. Lovely and romantic with the dim lighting. Nice place to go for a date or special occasion. There is an upstairs too. Very spacious venue. I'm so happy my friend suggested this place. It was a very memorable meal and I highly recommend coming here.

The salads were super flavorful and delish, everything tasted fresh, and the service was quick. Love that the food is made to order too. One thing I'd suggest... order one of the Specialty Salads and just add extra ingredients if you want more. Doing the "Make Your Own" option can end up costing a lot more. Definitely coming back again!

Food was phenomenal,…read moreloads of flavor, great portion sizes for the price, and gorgeous interior and vibe with lots of sunlight. We got the Zucchini Fritters and Greek Fries. Don't skip the Zucchini Fritters, they were beyond amazing. I got the Mushroom Bowl and even though there was no meat, it was surprisingly filling (especially after the workout) and super flavorful. I think about this meal a lot and would come back if I'm in Lincoln Park. Staff were super friendly and service was quick. Overall, great place to stop by for a quick, cheap, and semi-casual meal.

I'll definitely be back!!

The cauliflower steak was delicious (though it was a thick slice of cauliflower so it wasn't so tender) and served with cheesy faro. The fried chicken was bone in chicken and had the perfect crunch and flavor. It's served with tasty mashed potatoes. Lastly we ordered a side of their Mac n cheese to split between the table which I would recommend. If you're celebrating a birthday they offer a complimentary slice of their hummingbird cake which was honestly the best cake I've had in a while. Our server was so sweet and helpful when ordering! The space is also very romantic with low lighting, a smaller intimate dining room, and stunning art.

Very great visuals for pics of you want. The service was mid. That was the only drawback. I would go back for the food but it was if we were a bother to the server.

Our server was kind and great at showing recommendations. They suggested that each person has 2-3 plates since the menu was full of small-plate style food. And honestly, I think we could have gone away with 1-2 plates per person since we were very full by the time we finished eating The interior is absolutely gorgeous. Part of me wishes that we got the chance to sit down inside, but maybe that will be the excuse to come visit another time. The Blueberry Clafoutis was my favorite dish. The blueberries were sweet, and it was like eating a blueberry crepe/pancake. The sweetness level was not overpowering, which was what made this dish so enjoyable. The "Bhel" Hummus and Spicy Whipped Feta were both very tasty. I loved the fruitiness of the "Bhel" Hummus and loved how the Spicy Whipped Feta had its pomegranate bits. Each were so unique, and it was an adventure with each bite. Excellent service and food overall. It was a pleasant new experience.

The wings were so good we got a second order! The fries are natural cut and pair well with their garlic aoli! Classic burger was a hit! Kind of reminded me of In and Out! So delicious!!

(Kari's Rating 9.25/10)…read more This is one of my favorite salad chains, and I'm also including everything from Cava to Freshii. What is 63 it's a little bit a criminal that my salad ends up being like $25 every time, but I do get two meals out of it. I like to say that this location is nice because it's not in the loop so people that are working from home can you come here and it's not too busy. My only complaint is sometimes if you do order from the mobile app the portions are much smaller. I always get the modified Shroomami and I do quinoa instead of the purple rice. The river rice isn't bad, but sometimes it's a little bit overcooked and soggy. It does depend on what time of day you go to this location how fresh everything is, so if you care about that, I would go sooner than later. To save myself some money, sometimes I bring my own tomatoes from home, so it doesn't count as a topping. But, overall, I do like this location compared to most!

The wraps come on a bed of kale and some grapes(?). They're SOUR if you eat them alone, but all together, DELICIOUS. Service (5/5): Very fast service. Limited interaction. Most people were picking up online orders. Ambiance (5/5): Window seats are available for dine-in, but it's like 6 barstools. This is definitely a grab-and-go/order online place. There's standing room to wait. Very easy and simple ordering. It's close to a lot of stores and other places to eat, so it's a perfect lunch-break place!
