Fantastic food and service! We ordered through door dash, everything was great. The bad apple burger is fantastic, I had it on gluten free bun which was great, it was holding well and not crumbly. The fries were also fantastic, which is rare because fries don’t travel very well, I am sure they are even more amazing when eaten at the restaurant. We also had the fried cheese curds and the chocolate mousse, both of them were perfectly executed. I requested my gluten free burger to be marked on the notes and someone from staff called me on the phone to make sure that they understood my request correctly, I am grateful for the sensitivity. Hats off to the chefs back in the kitchen and thanks! Hopefully we can go and dine in too.

Emanuel was an awesome server. The food was pretty great too. I am gluten free, and the CJ wear gluten free dish was pretty great. I can’t remember what it reminded me of, but it was a great reminder. If I lived local, I would come here even more especially because the server was pretty great.

Loved the new location for Mimi’s on Lincoln (formerly Lincoln Cafe & Market). Same good quality food and service - I’ve always appreciated their gluten free options too. If you have a dog, be sure to use their outdoor window for service!

This is my new favorite restaurant in Chicago. I had a better than perfect meal here. One bonus if you haven’t allergies/ celiac, they are very thoughtful/ transparent and offer a range of options. Accommodations don’t feel like a second thought.

The 3 b chicken or burger is AMAZING. Service seems a bit unorganized but the ridiculous FAT Bloody Mary really made up for it. I love that they have gluten free buns. I would love to try their house made chips but they do not have a designated fryer for the celiacs crowd,

The chilaquiles and gluten free crepes are amazing, the kids meals have a ton of food, and the servers are super sweet. Way less busy on Saturdays than Sundays. It’s our new regular place!
