Anyway, this place has GREAT food. The spicy ramen and shrimp springs rolls go hard. Bubble tea is delicious. However, service takes FOREVER. I called in for 3 items, came by around 20 minutes later like they said, and I still had to wait about 10-15 more. Whenever I'm on my break (I work at this mall) and get a bubble tea, I spend half my break just waiting for it. Might as well go to the FroYo place 2 stalls down if I wanted quicker service. If the problem is being understaffed, why not just hire more people? I didn't see a hiring sign anywhere. That being said, although slow, the employees ARE friendly. The girl with red/orange hair who pronounces "cilantro" in a Spanish accent is my favorite. Super kind, very approachable, very cool. Also like the guy who looks to be about in his late 20s-early 30s, pale, facial hair, maybe was a cook? I've only seen him once but I really liked his attitude and the way he spoke to me when orders seemed to get mixed up. NOT a fan of the older man who works here. He made things a little complicated, when I asked him for a mall employee discount he said "Oh, we don't do that anymore. No one does!". ?????. This mall has been doing this for YEARS, what are you talking about? All of a sudden we've stopped? I got the feeling he was lying. When I looked over at the other employee working they also looked at him weird, which confirmed my suspicions. When they were prepping my order he seemed to mix things up and confuse everyone, including me, the person who MADE the order. I will not be ordering if I see this man behind the counter again. Overall, very good establishment, unfortunately some hiccups here and there. Hope the slow service issue is fixed at some point.

He recommended his favorite smoothie, the Bahama Mama, since I wanted something tropical, and THAT WAS ITTT!!! The ambiance was great too -- the place felt welcoming, clean, and had a chill vibe that made the experience even better. When I tell you guys it was one of the best smoothies I've ever had, I mean it. It was sooo good. He also told me about the app and how I could get a free smoothie after my first purchase by scanning the barcode on the receipt. I'm not in Chicago anymore, but I'll definitely be visiting my local store again because this experience was amazing.

What's going on with Te amo Norridge?…read more Used to be really good but a few months ago I noticed different personnel. The screens don't work, so I can't see what options they have. The employee asks me what I want as if I already know the whole menu, but doesn't explain the different options. The app doesn't allow ordering anything at this location. The same employee, multiple times at different hours, has told me: "the boba isn't ready, I just started cooking it, you have to wait," or "I just opened the store," or "I'm about to close." There is NO BOBA. THERE IS NOTHING. How is it possible that a boba shop doesn't have boba? It's also not the busiest location where you could say it runs out very quickly. I don't understand what is wrong with this store. Te Amo has incredible products and in this area it's the only nearby location; however, I've preferred to go to other stores and not waste my time. It's very sad that this is happening, I hope you start paying attention.

Tired of walking the same five aisles at your regular grocery store? This place is the antidote…read more The first thing that hit me walking in was how different everything felt: shelves stocked with items I don't normally see, the kind of variety that makes meal planning fun again instead of routine. If you've ever stood in your usual store wondering why every dish you cook ends up tasting the same, this is where you go to break that cycle. It's a big store, but don't let that intimidate you. I expected to get turned around a few times, but the layout makes sense and everything is easy enough to find. What really stood out was the produce and the fresh sections I walked through. You can tell things are turned over regularly, nothing looked tired or picked over. Now, the honest part. Prices here run about 20% higher than what you'd pay at a typical grocery store. That's the trade-off, and I want to be upfront about it rather than let you find out at checkout. But here's the thing: if that difference doesn't break your budget, this is absolutely worth it. You're not just paying for groceries, you're paying for the chance to discover something you wouldn't have found anywhere else in the neighborhood. So if you're the type who gets a little bored buying the same brands week after week, do yourself a favor and take the detour. Wander the aisles, grab something you don't recognize, and let this place shake up your routine a little. Sometimes the best meals start with a store you didn't expect to fall for.

I love it especially when it's clean and smells wonderfully of baked goods and savory offerings. So, while I should be full keto, the minute I go on keto I get an aversion to meat. I already hate eggs except when my body craves an egg and even then I'll try to ignore it until I give my body the shot of protein it's requesting. Now that I'm on Ozempic (I've been athletic all my life but when I need a boost I just take Ozempic for awhile and the weight comes off fast.) I can barely eat anything anyways. I came across Panera bread after a work meeting and decided to enjoy a bowl of broccoli cheddar soup. Sure they offer a lot, except I don't see hot chocolate on the menu. So just the soup and I chose a piece of baguette as a side. I dont like plain potato chips and I only like green Granny's smith apples.....for most times. Now, if I go apple picking I will permit a few red apple versions to enjoy the hard toiling away I did in the orchard. Lol, but a Granny's Smith gets me every time. Anywho, the baguette stayed in a bag on top of my oven until I surrendered it unapologetically to the trash can. Hindsight, I will just skip the side altogether. The broccoli soup is not keto and definitely has a huge list of ingredients you shouldn't be able to pronounce but you can...... The soup is so delicious and all I added to it to add to the warmth was some simple black pepper. Just a pinch to each serving. I ate twice off that soup. Will get again soon. Come check them out!

Surprisingly,…read moreit was already very crowded for a Wednesday morning, which made it a little difficult to find a comfortable place to sit. The space itself is pretty small and the tables are also on the smaller side, so it's not the easiest spot if you're trying to have a meeting or spread out to work. I ordered a latte, which was really good nice and strong, exactly how I like it. I also tried a breakfast sandwich. It was decent but pretty average, and I did feel like it was a bit pricier compared to similar coffee spots. The staff was friendly, which always helps the overall experience. Parking can be a challenge though since you have to rely on street parking in the area. Overall, it's a solid neighborhood coffee shop and I would come back, but it's probably not my favorite spot if I'm planning to meet someone or need a little more space.
