Why 5 stars? Because this hit the spot with exactly what I was looking for. --- --- --- I recently had a work trip to Chicago and had a lunch spot picked out when I landed, but then Yelp's Top 100 list for 2026 came out, and I quickly pivoted to Un Amor. And it was an excellent decision. Those pictures of the steak bowls could not have spoken louder to me. I visited the day after the Super Bowl, which is always a debaucherous eating day, so I just needed some good, clean eating. Eggs, potatoes, asparagus and most importantly, high quality steak. Don't get me wrong, I was pretty tempted by the smashburger, but we just had burgers during the game, so the carne asada bowl was an easy decision. I also grabbed a guava and cheese empanada, which really hit the spot too. I'd love to come back again during a future Chicago trip.

All the food was amazing! The carne asada bowl was very filling and the meat was cooked perfectly to my preference. The French toast flight is a great option to share if you wanna try a little bit of them all! My favorite was the banana French toast Only issue we had was waiting times for food was about 25 min and waiting for to-go boxes and the check also too another 20 ish minutes Would def come back to try their dinner menu!

First ones here on a Saturday morning with a reservation! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The spot is spacious but does fill up quick.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]A great latin brunch spot in West Town![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The service was great and everything came out in a timely manner. The latte art was instagrammable. The food was hefty & showcased the quality meats. I believe I got a traditional breakfast (forgetting which latin country it was based off of) with steak, longaniza, beans, plantains, & eggs. It was delicious! The other breakfast pictured was a skirt steak sandwich with potatoes & it was also perfect. We came here for our anniversary so loved the added touch of churros with candles to end the meal. Definitely an elevated latin brunch spot to check out!

[[HIGHLIGHT]]An amazing vibe every time we come![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] All the food is amazing. I don't like the flat flip over scrambled egg style they do. Other than that everything is fab! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Came here with my daughter for brunch with friends. The kids loved it![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Came again with a friend and it was the same!! Service is always attentive and accommodating.

Un Amor might just be my new go to brunch spot! The food was impeccable, staff was super kind, and [[HIGHLIGHT]]the facility was cute and clean[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]! I don't like to get the same thing at restaurants usually, but I would 100% get the Carne Asada Bowl again & again & again. The Horchata Carajillo was also super good and came with a delicious churro on top!

Elite brunch spot! Recommend making a reservation as this place gets busy. No surprise though cause their food is so good. A few in my group got drinks but I skipped this time, they do have a bottomless brunch option in addition to their cocktail menu. Drinks looked very tempting! Highly recommend the carne asada bowl! It was so flavorful. Ask for some homemade salsa on the side too. You won't be disappointed! First time here but it definitely won't be my last, wow I'm so impressed!!! Need to try for dinner sometime too.

I came here on a Monday morning and was seated immediately. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The atmosphere was nice and chill.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Torta De Carne Asada (4/5): chose to make it a burrito, steak was flavorful, potatoes on the side were really good and seasoned well Horchata Carajillo (1/5): didn't taste horchata, mostly espresso, had a weird taste Hibiscus Margarita (4/5): refreshing, not too sweet

[[HIGHLIGHT]]A perfect brunch spot in West Town.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]We stopped in on a Monday and were thoroughly impressed by the food, coffee, and overall vibe.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The menu really shines with its savory options--we ordered the guava empanada, smash burger, carne asada bowl, and chilaquiles verdes with birria, and every dish was a hit. The chef truly knocked it out of the park. The coffee was just as memorable--the mazapan latte and dulce de leche latte were rich and flavorful. Service was quick, and the team was warm and welcoming throughout. Can't wait to come back and try the dinner menu.

I came here when they first opened. I loved the friendly service & my avocado toast was amazing. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Such a cute, cool vibe.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We tried it again today & my avocado toast wasn't a great as before. They changed the fresh avocado to a thin guacamole spread. The bread is so good from Publican. It comes with 2 poached eggs. One was prepared perfectly, one was hard. The micro greens & shaved beets were nice, but it lacked flavor. I used salt & pepper to give it something. My husband got the chicken & waffles. They use thighs. He also thought it lacked flavor. The breading tested burnt but bland. It came with bourbon butter & a drizzle of syrup. It needed more, would have been nice if it came with some on the side. As a pescatarian, I wish the had more veggie choices on the menu. Or sub vegan chorizo. I'll be back to try again. I loved their friendly energy.

I went for a brunch. The place is very nice and clean. The waitress was very nice. I ordered the Carne Asada Bowl. It had Skirt steak, roasted potatoes, mixed peppers, red onion, asparagus, I requested scrambled eggs. The whole bowl was good. But not great. The meat was good and tender. The rest of the ingredients could have used some seasoning. We ordered the Braised Brisket Empanadas, they were excellent! The flavor of the brisket was really flavorful and so very good! Highly recommend. Overall it was a good experience. I will go back to try their dishes.

[[HIGHLIGHT]]This is such a cute brunch spot![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]We came on a Sunday around 11AM and the restaurant was packed but we managed to snag two seats at the bar.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Started off with a strawberry horchata latte and my friend ordered the ube latte. I loved the dried flower petals they had adorned my cup with. We wanted sweet and savory so we ordered the Guatemalan breakfast and shared the french toast flight. The steak was cooked to perfection, it was so juicy! Out of the three flavors of the french toast, I enjoyed the banana foster one the most. I loved that the restaurant is family owned and ran. The owner came over to introduce himself and his family members who were working. Will definitely be back to try more dishes in the coming weeks!

Came to Un Amor on a Sunday for brunch with a group of friends, and it was fantastic! We made a reservation on Resy two days in advance, and there were plenty of dining times available. The day of, we were running a bit late and were able to call to push our reservation back. Everyone was so kind, and our server had the best recommendations. We got the brisket and cachete empanadas to share and they were the best we've ever had. The skirt steak and chimichurri were also fantastic. We all enjoyed our food, and the skillet cookie at the end was the icing on the cake. I highly recommend this restaurant for the excellent service, ambiance, and quality and taste of food. It's easily one of my top brunch places this year.

OMG! Un Amor - THE Place to Be in Chicago!! Let me tell you about our ABSOLUTE FAVORITE spot for brunch and dinner in the city! We are OBSESSED with Un Amor and can't stop going back for their incredible brunches and amazing evening happy hours and dinners! The staff? They don't just serve you - they WELCOME you with open arms every single time! Their attention to detail is NEXT LEVEL! And the FOOD?! OH. MY. GOODNESS. It's mind-blowingly delicious! Everything - and I mean EVERYTHING - we've tried has completely blown us away! When we had 10 friends visiting for St. Patrick's Day, there was NO QUESTION where we had to take them! We made a reservation for our crew of 12 at our beloved Un Amor, and guess what? EVERYONE declared it their absolute favorite restaurant of their entire Chicago trip! How amazing is that?! For brunch, you HAVE to try the Carne Asada Bowl (get those eggs scrambled - trust me!), any of their INCREDIBLE french toast creations, LITERALLY ALL of their empanadas (they're THAT good!), and the chicken and waffles that will change your life! Dinner favorites? The smash burger is TO DIE FOR and those loaded fries? I'm drooling just thinking about them! If you haven't been to Un Amor yet, what are you even waiting for?! GO! NOW! Your taste buds will thank you!!!
