Wow!!! This pizza is great! I agree with one of the reviewers that their crust, for the thin crust…read moreat least, is really flaky and crispy. It has a great texture! There are some pizza places where their thin crust is too doughy and chewy and it fills you up really fast and leaves a weird after taste in your mouth. But this crust is really something special! My co-workers and I tried this place since it's only down the street from us and they have a Monday special where you can get a 16" pizza with one topping for $10, which is a great deal! The three of us devoured the entire pie and we all agreed that this is one of the better pizzas that we had....and we eat A LOT of pizza from a lot of different places! The sauce isn't salty and they put just the right amount of cheese on it. This place is very bare, but don't let that scare you! They make some quality pizza and I definitely will be ordering from them again! Thanks for the great pizza!

I just recently discovered this place. I work in Lincolnwood. It has a great ambiance to talk with…read morefriends, co-workers, or just chill by yourself and sip on coffee. More than enough seating and outlets to do work. My go-to drink is the iced café latte with whole milk. The coffee quality is far superior to Starbucks. Also, I love the gauva empanada with cream cheese! Also its good to know you are supporting a local business. Happy to know 5% of their proceeds go to charity. Overall highly recommend!

I went with an iced peppermint tea and it was very refreshing. I also tried the guava and cream cheese pastry and my goodness this was insanely delicious. The pastry dough is crispy, flakey and fluffy. The guava jam and cream cheese was sweet and not overly sweet. I stopped in on a weekend morning and throughout my time here there was a constant flow of customers coming and going. Staff members were able to keep up with the influx of weekend customers. Within 5 minutes of placing my order my items were ready to be picked up at the front counter.

Skokie Bakery and Grill is possibly one of the best places to get masgouf (the golden pompano) in…read morethe Chicagoland area. I swear they don't even salt and pepper the fish, they just let that sit on the grill and do its own wonderful thing. Walking into to the restaurant, you might be a little taken aback. It's not the nicest dining area, even a little dinky. But if you are a real foodie, you know this is a good sign. The best places are the ones that look like this. The food comes out and you're realizing you've made the right decision. Admittedly, a lot of the business is takeout and delivery (which I've also done, and is also delicious) but if you aren't afraid of a pared down dining room, you can often have it to yourself while enjoying some amazing food.

It's my first time here. We were discouraged from going in as we didn't see anyone dining. But I…read morethink they do a lot of carry out. We were parked, but we went in to try it and we were not disappointed with the dishes. Here's my review of the dishes: I loved the lentil soup, and we got warm bread to go with it; the bread was delicious. The falafel appetizers were yummy. The chicken kebab was great. I took half home because it was a lot for me. My hubby had the shawarma sandwich, but I don't have a photo because he ate it right away. He said something about the onions that made it taste so good with that bread. We also bought more bread to bring home. We will go back soon. Our waitress was very polite. The only thing I didn't like was the Tabbouleh salad. It was too soggy with the vinegar they add, I think. I like it more dry. I will add a few photos of the food items.

Plus when the check came, they gave us another table's check which was double, and they said that they cleared it up, but they wouldn't give us avoided receipt. The story, the waitress told us, and the story, the hostess told us were completely different. So we're still not sure if we got charged over $130 for the other tables check. My check was less than half of that, because I only ate by myself and my party that was with me, just had water. They said they fixed the bill, but they charged my card twice, with no voided receipt, shown to us, so you be the judge. They did give me a free vegan cookie, supposedly it was vegan and when when I got home. It was not fresh at all and I threw it out.

We ordered a dozen mixed, cream cheese and lox spread and headed home. Service was fast and the employee helping us was really sweet. The smell in the building was lovely. Ahhhh.....

My husband forgot his promise... I am still holding a grudge.

The $5.99 Benchmark for Bagel Integrity Who would have…read morethought you could still find this kind of integrity for $5.99? In a world where most spots are jacking up prices while lowering quality, this place is sticking to the New York gold standard. The line is a total marathon. You're going to wait, and it's going to be a while--but that's the tax you pay for food that actually has a soul. Don't let the deli line distract you. It's white noise. Stay focused on the bagels, the bialys, and the accoutrements. The breakfast sandwich is, hands down, the best in town. Period. It's simple, inexpensive, and lacks any of that "cheap filler" logic you see at other breakfast joints. It's just a masterclass in doing the basics with real care. If you have the patience to survive the wait, you won't find a better return on your investment.
