Best Lunch Restaurants in Calumet Heights

Went for Valentine’s Day the vibe was love. From the music to all the guest. The service was okay due to the food being late and it was a little dry. My first time and won’t be the last.

Took hubby here for his birthday. This was our second time visiting. The food was just as we remembered, if not even better! We started off with the gumbo, which was hearty in itself. My husband had the Short ribs, which were tender and flavorful. I had the blackened catfish, which was flaky, seasoned well, and melted in my mouth. We also ordered as sides: collard greens, mac n cheese, and cornbread. OMG, I could've lived off the cornbread alone! Greens were cooked to perfection, and mac n cheese was creamy but not overly cheesy. Needless to say, our eyes were bigger than our stomachs, and we had a lot of leftovers. The service was top-notch, and it was a great experience overall. It is a small space, so be prepared to maybe sit a little close to other patrons. It was cool for us, great conversation. We will definitely be back, try something else, and remember those sides are enough to 2👍🏾

Food was fantastic. Ample portions I always have leftovers. Service exceptional. Jasmine has been my server in several occasions and is at the top of her game in terms of being courteous and attentive. Previously Roux was my fave in the neighborhood but now Dawn has become my go to spot for breakfast and brunch. Make reservations ahead of time they book quickly.

We were able to sit at the counter by the window and watch all the passersby. The pimento spread was amazing and the service was incredible.

Service was good and the food was delicious, but like every Italian restaurant these days, the prices are higher
