Small and cute place. Not much interaction with the server, but I prefer it that way. I got the Ube Flapjack and was pleasantly surprised as I wasn't sure what to expect. I'd describe the taste as similar to Taro, but sweeter. Unsure what the bacon was glazed with but it tasted AMAZING. The Purple haze had iced coffee with ube at the bottom. The flavors work well and I liked the taste. My girlfriend had the Spiced Maple Chicken and enjoyed it as well!

Had a reservation and waited 30 minutes before being told we could be seated but had to finish our meal and leave within 40 minutes because they had a large party arriving. How rude!!! No one had left their table during our 30 minute wait. We had not even been seated or had a chance to order our food!! I will not pay for attitude and bad service! Please find a reputable restaurant with good service and employees that love their job.

My family had a reservation and waited for 15 minutes. I asked the waiter if we could grab the next open table and he yelled ‘I don’t know, I’m not a host’. In disbelief, I walked away. A few minutes after, a host told us the next table was reserved for a large party and we only had 3 people so would have to wait longer. Then he gave us the option to quickly eat before the next party arrived, though none of the other patrons were being asked to quickly eat their food. This was a special time I was spending with family and we were looking forward to trying this place for the first time. The food looked great but I’ll never return after being treated this way. Please do better.

Cool little space with plenty of light and chill decor. Pleasant service. Food was cooked perfectly. The actual flavor of everything was tame as in under salted, spicy was mild, etc. Overall it's a nice experience at a reasonable price.

Super cute spot for some brunch, the food tastes even better. I tried the big john and the turtle pancakes and both were phenomenal. The servers were sweet and I liked their ordering system as it made things easier for me. Would definitely come back again.

Cute atmosphere, food was delicious with large portions. I got the chilaquiles. Restaurant is vegetarian friendly.

The French toast oddly had a spice to it and tasted like I walked into a very old antique store… mimosa was good and so are potato’s

We loved our breakfast and coffee. The bacon is actually amazing. The Big John is an egg in Tator tots with the best sauce and real bacon bits. Fantastic atmosphere and great service.

Darling establishment. This was our last stop in Chicago. My daughter had the turtle pancakes, yummy. And I'm more of a savory person for breakfast but those were good. I had the chicken and waffles, the chicken was a little too rough on the exterior for my liking. I thought it would pack more heat, but over all it was fine. I did really enjoy their special purple coffee, highly recommend trying that.

Came here for a quick bite around 1-2pm. To order they have you scan a QR code that is on the table. You can also pay for your order mobile. We didn't wait long to get our food served. The food tasted great we just wish we were checked up on regularly. After the food was placed on the table we never saw our waiter again. The scenery was excellent nonetheless.

Loved it here! Food was excellent & the service was great too. They had a barcode to scan and order so you didn't have to wait for a waitress or waiter & the food was ready within 5-10 minutes (even on a crowded day). Great music and ambiance too!

The food was not great. The service was also not great. Very underwhelming. Food orders were messed up and we were told they had it right. Not worth the money.

Excellent service! The staff was very accommodating to a last-minute table change despite the busy Saturday brunch rush (a few of my guests had to cancel day-of and we weren't made to feel like an inconvenience to the restaurant staff).
