    I always get the Maki crunchy roll with extra crunch. Everything is good here. Nice minimalist dining room. A place to take a quiet lunch on a beautiful day

    never had a single thing there that wasn't delicious (and I go to the Sit Down a LOT). chicken club, avocado rolls, and pizza are amazeballs.

    I had a sandwich. Menu seems pretty vast. Veggie chip is an awesome side option. Patio was open on a nice fall night. Service was superb.

    Try the Hyde Park roll, and split a bruschetta as an appetizer. Also, they offer a 10% discount for those with University of Chicago student ids.

    Couldn't decide between the Smokey Bear and the Feisty Flamingo so I had both! Excellent selections. Dined al fresco and really had a great time.
