Dulce de leche Cafe — Restaurant in Lake View Township

While visiting our daughter at Loyola, we were looking for a great coffee and brunch spot. A high Google rating lured us a little off the beaten path, and we decided to give it a shot.

From the outside, the place seemed small and didn't quite match the "vibe" I had in mind. But as soon as we stepped inside, we were greeted by the friendliest person. The cafe was small, but it was incredibly cute and clean.

It was not too sweet, which is always a worry for him. Everything was absolutely delicious. The chilaquiles were perfectly crunchy, soaking up the slightly spicy green sauce. The spice was balanced with the perfect amount of queso fresco and crema, and the chicken was incredibly flavorful and cooked to perfection.

We can't recommend this...

Inside the place is crammed and hot with the door opened and flies/gnats trying to eat your food. Place sucks. Not sure why people are hyping this place up with a current 4.8 rating. Time to get real and...
