    My friend and I met for a casual girls’ brunch and ordered the all-you-can-eat brunch special and it was DELICIOUS. Our waitress was great, general service was also nice, and the food was excellent. Would definitely come back for brunch again!

    The service was slow, the food came super late. We were seated at a table that was evidently too small for 4 guests, and the servers did not have the training to remove prior utensils that were already on the table before putting the entrees down, hence leading to a lack of space for us to eat. They just didn’t seem to care enough. Also the music was way too loud, the trumpet player became annoying at one point and gave us all a headache. I would suggest he take breaks in between so people can have some peace while eating with mellow music because the constant trumpet in our ears made the experience poor

    Must try Mediterranean cuisine in wicker park! The atmosphere and wait staff are incredible, but the real draw is the food.
