Loved everything about our brunch experience! They were hosting photos with Santa and our niece and nephew had the best time—Santa and the Grinch were walking around interacting with the kids! The space was also decorated to the nines for the holidays!! All staff was SO friendly and welcoming, and the food was great!

Great spot in Logan Square. We went yesterday to watch the debate. They were running a $2 taco Tuesday special and it was amazing! We got one of each (carnitas, tinga, cauliflower). We all now want to come every Tuesday.

The food was great and reasonably priced. The service was also good. Unfortunately the music was so loud we could not comfortably have a conversation.

Led a bike group here for breakfast. Arrived just as they opened and was seated quickly. Service was excellent and menu had some unique options. Everyone enjoyed their meal and we were back on the road in no time. Highly recommend the brunch and ambiance.

They were very accommodating with our 10-month old. Only issue was a “4% Convenience Fee”. What is this?
