I eat here at least once a week being so close to my office. Everything is fresh & the meat quality is top notch. I will put these tacos up against any place in the city & I've tried a ton of places. They are definitely better than Pasadita & some of the other award winners in the city. Go there & you'll be impressed.

This place has nice looking sweets, but the atmosphere could be better.   My wife & I went here tonight & the young girl working behind the counter was SO rude it wasn't even funny.  We stopped by earlier in the evening to see what kind of desserts they had since we planned on stopping in after we ate dinner down the street.  My wife peeked her head around the corner to see if they had a dining area, but before she could even say anything the girl behind the counter snapped, "We don't have any public restrooms."  It was just kind of odd, because we hadn't said anything about needing to use the bathroom.  It was just off putting and she was unfriendly.  We said, "Oh, that's o.k.  We'll be back later for dessert. Bye. "  This place is supposed to close at 8 & we went in at  10 minutes to 8 to get one cup of coffee and a brownie. The girl obviously wanted to leave early because she told us they were out of coffee when there were large bags of it for sale everywhere. The coffee is the last thing that you shut down when closing a coffee shop. She obviously doesn't care about her job since she was so rude the two times we stopped in.  At this point I was just tired and we didn't buy the brownie or anything.  I hope that the owner of Sensational Bites reads this.  The staff really sets the tone and we won't be going back here.

I have now been there 3 time & it keeps getting better. The lamb tangine was mouth watering & they really do have the best hummus in the city. I live down the street & am excited that this place is so close. The portions are large & the prices reasonable.

Very shady & pushy. They will try to push you into something you don't want.

I've used Stems a few times to get flowers for my girlfriend & they are extremely helpful all of the time. Great selection of exotic flowers too.

This place has an amazing taco but it may be going downhill. The past few times I've been here the steak was really fatty. The negro sauce rules!

I wound up at this event unplanned & I have to say it was a lot of fun & I wish I had known the theme so I could have prepared a little better. My friend Trish was the face painter. Everyone looked like they were really into it & was having a great time. My only complaint was the rappers. I love rap & hip hop but there was a prom or retro prom theme & everyone appeared to be really into the DJ spinning old 40's-50's music. Once the rappers came on the dance floor became a ghost town & the look on everyones faces was that of shock & disappointment. Other than that, great party!!!

Great place for good food at a decent price. The Vietnamese grilled beef noodle is amazing!!!

Sticky Rice is one of the best Thai places in Chicago. A huge variety of dishes, fried worms & fresh coconut milk. What more could one ask for?

I used to hang out here a lot more when I lived in the hood but not so much anymore. Still a great bar with a great vibe. Good beer & game selection too.
