    Loved this place! Not super big, but they do have parking in front. They did a great job with both their sweet and savory food options. Coffee was a little stronger than I like it, but they had different creamer options. Service was friendly.

    Went here because the fun name and stayed for the awesome food and service! I got the horchata coffee and it was the perfect balance. If you're in the area I def recommend.

    Simply delicious. Love that there is parking outside in lot in front. Fantastic service. Professional and attentive. And the food was incredible. The best waffle I have ever had. Period. And the chilaquiles was so yummy and had great spice. Would definitely go back and try many more dishes. My whole family loved! Inside was super cute with grinch Christmas theme with a nice Instagram photo wall spot.

    These waffles are truly one of a kind- crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and full of flavor. I always look forward to them whenever I visit. The sea salt caramel ice cream is a standout too absolutely delicious, like a perfect "chef's kiss." The service is consistently excellent, and the ambiance has a cozy, welcoming vibe that makes you want to stay a while.

    Food was very good, great service, Karina was amazing and funny. Little pricey but hey, how it is sometimes.

    This place is SOLID - excellent for brunch. The namesake Churro Waffle is a MUST on your visit. This is a belated review of a visit at noon on a Saturday in late April: Located in a small shopping plaza, it's not much on the outside, but - big pro for me - boasts a parking lot. Inside is a family-friendly more modern diner-esque (but slightly more crowded) vibe. There was a bit of a wait for a table for 4 on Saturday - nothing too long though. And yes, the wait was well worth it. I'm a savory brunch lover - so much so I usually forgo the sweets which can be too much for me, unless it's a well-done combo. The Bacon Waffle (substituted in Churro Waffle) with the Sea Salt Caramel Ice Cream on the side (so it wouldn't get soggy and I could control the ratio) was a PEFRECT BLEND OF SAVORY AND SWEET and will definitely have me coming back when I'm next in the area. Besides my beloved Bacon Waffle, we ordered the Chicken Churro Waffle, Steak Fajita Bowl, Eggs Benedict, Lox Benedict, Carnitas Benedict, and Hibiscus Lemonade (sweet and refreshing), and a Horchata Iced Coffee (very good)! Everything was delicious (only complaint was the friend who ordered Carnitas Benedict said it was a bit overpowering a flavor for the egg / hollandaise) - and the service was quick, kind, and able to easily accommodate requests and substitutions. Definitely a rock-solid brunch choice - highly recommend!

    Round two at The Churro Waffle and I tried the Lox Benedict. Super tasty! My husband got the chicken churro waffle but said it wasn't as fresh as last time. It has extra pizzazz with a purple flower though! They're currently decorated for spring/Easter and it looks super cute!

    It's official, I'm breaking up with Churro Waffle. I used to come here once 2-3 times a month but their prices have gotten so out of control, it has gone beyond what is reasonable. The suddenly jump in prices in a couple of months is so weird. On my most recent visit, our meal came out to over $60. The same meal that used to cost less than $40 and included coffee. I could understand blanket rising of prices but to raise the price and then charge $4 for ingredients that used to be included is beyond me. They have literally lost all sense of reality. Inflation is a real thing. But to give less food, less options, and charge 33% more. It just doesn't seem sustainable. Condiments like sour cream used to be and additional $.75 and now it's $2. When I used to go to Churro, it would be jam packed. We'd have to wait in the car to waiting for a table to open up and it was worth it. I went last Sunday and it was unseasonably warm... perfect brunching weather. The restaurant was half full and I think I know why. With the prices being upped so high, it just makes sense to go to a nicer restaurant. The prices are the same, food is better, and ambiance is perfect. Churro, I hope management really tries to turn this place around because I really enjoyed it for a couple of years.

    Who doesnt love CHURROS?!? Better yet, how about a CHURRO WAFFLE?!? They've has put a DELICIOUS spin on the traditional waffle and made a churro into a brunch and breakfast favorite!!! They have other flavors such as OREO - with Oreo Crumbles, caramel sauce, cookies n cream ice cream or their BACON CHURRO WAFFLE - hickory smoked bacon, bacon, bacon and more bacon! Additionally they have omelettes, paninis, and breakfast bowls and burritos!!! Check them out!!!

    Ambience is good. Food came out fast and not salty, so that's great. Pancakes were soft and fluffy. Service was very attentive and friendly.

    Want a churro for breakfast? Like waffles? Marry them together to create the churro waffle - brilliant! Not a huge space but we were lucky to grab the last booth so there was no wait. Pancakes, waffles and chilaquiles are all solid as is the coffee. Nice place for brunch if you're in the Irving Park area.

    Y'ALL!!! This place!!! WOW!!! I'm upset my partner took me here for brunch! Now I have a new obsession and will need someone to keep me away!! Seriously though, hands down the best chicken and waffles I have ever had. And I brunch hard!! They come with ice cream, WHAT??? Yes ice cream!! remember all those times Mom said you couldn't have ice cream for breakfast? They said "pa fuera with that!!"! I seriously couldn't process what was happening!! Ok enough with the chicken and waffles, the chorizo bowl, also BOMB!!! Their OJ, LORD!!!!

    No good vegan options :(…read more I got the green salad and added avocado (paid extra just for 30% of an avocado) and extra dressing. Overpriced salad for sure. Also the outdoor seating was horrible. No umbrellas so we were melting under the hot sun the whole time. My friends enjoyed the fries but said the burger lacked veggies.

    There's just something about a burger that actually lives up to the hype--and Little Bad Wolf does…read moreexactly that. Stacked unapologetically high, this burger is everything you want and more: juicy, perfectly seared patties layered with melty cheese, crispy bacon, and those golden, crunchy fried onions that take it completely over the top. Every bite is rich, savory, and just messy enough to remind you you're eating something seriously good. The toasted bun somehow holds it all together (barely), soaking up every bit of flavor without getting lost in the chaos. And then... the shoestring fries. Thin, crispy, golden perfection--light but addictive, with that ideal crunch that makes it impossible to stop at just one (or ten). They're the kind of fries you keep reaching for without even realizing it, especially dipped in that creamy, tangy sauce on the side. And let's not forget the drinks--just as good as the food. Refreshing, perfectly balanced, and the kind you sip slow while taking it all in (but somehow they disappear way too fast). It's not just a burger--it's one of Chicago's most iconic bites for a reason. Bold, indulgent, and absolutely worth every single napkin you'll need after. The ambiance inside is GORGEOUS!

Loved the 90s female R&B playlist they had going! Little Bad Wolf has been on my list FOR YEARS to try the burger! My husband got the burger with fried onions and I got some Bao because those also looked delicious and were a popular menu item. Honestly the 3 stars are only that high because of the service. Our server was friendly and attentive + the food came out hot and quick. Unfortunately, the food was pretty disappointing. The burger was swimming in a puddle of grease and just picking it up made your hands greasy + was dripping grease. The fries that came with it were floppy, soggy, and sad...but at least warm? I personally wouldn't order this again. The Bao were better, but small for the price and honestly were just okay? It was nice they gave you sauces you could add, but I found the Bao's to already have enough sauce so I didn't need them. Overall I left feeling confused and disappointed. I don't feel the need to come back here - Little Bad Will was a one and done experience for me.
