Noticed I was right by Cafecito around lunchtime and decided to stop by; I have been to their other location but not this one. Both are hole-in-the-wall style as they are connected to other buildings. Their menu boasts a variety of cuban eats as well as classic cafe staples. Their chivito sandwich is one of the best sandwiches I’ve ever eaten and the caldo gallego is delicious. Unassuming ambiance but staff are super friendly at both locations and the food rivals much more expensive restaurants. Great to grab a bite for lunch or a chill spot to get some work done.

Good Cuban food in Chicago. It is a drop in and drop out kind of place. Fast service with a welcoming staff. The restaurant could use some croquetas to compliment the selections.

Picked up the Cubano and the Choripan sandwiches. Both were good, but I give the nod to the Choripan for the unique flavor of the chorizo chunks. Be sure to try the hot sauce they have in the little containers - it goes great on the sandwiches! The food is made to order and takes a little while to get, so prepare to wait for a bit or eat in.

Not a lot of people on a Saturday morning. Cubano and huevos completo sandwiches came out quickly and we're delicious. Great quick bite to eat.
