This was one of my absolute favorite places to dine during my trip to Chicago. I am very content and feel truly fortunate that I stumbled upon them. The location is really fantastic in what appears to be a recovered church that sits upon a lake. The building and its location provide a really fun and light atmosphere that pairs perfectly with the Mediterranean style cousine that they provide. They are very knowledgeable of food allergies and do a fantastic job of not only navigating them but also providing many options, which are free of allergens which ail you. My buddy and I tore through the menu and ordered many samplings of numerous dishes that were offered. From the breakfast menu to the dinner menu and all the way to the dessert menu. We could not find a bad dish. The experience was great, and the food was fantastic; if you are afforded the opportunity, I would highly recommend dining here. Allergy friendly options such as gluten-free are available.

Excellent products! 3 of my 6 Polish uncles were bakers so I know a good bread when I smell and see it. This place is simply awesome: it has crusty bread made the old fashioned way as well as sweet treats of all kinds. The line and the fact that they never have any leftovers is a proof how much Polish people and local neighbors appreciate this establishment. Wide variety of breads including low gluten is available. Order ahead to make sure you get what you want before it's sold out! I poped in today for one loaf but at another times I placed holiday orders of breads and cakes or sat down for a meal. Very small space to eat reminds me of Parisian bustro but with Polish American hospitality

Apparently this new restaurant has received many reviews in a short period of time. Like myself, I believe that we’ve all been compelled to do so by the high level of excellence in every facet of the operation. Friendliness and attentiveness of the staff is exceptional. So is the food. So is the appearance inside. Breakfast potatoes were particularly good. For those who are GF, you”ll appreciate the quality gluten free pancakes.
