What Our Customers Think!

  • I got the firecracker shrimp and the California Maki from the Bloom sushi counter, and loved everything so much! I was surprised that the shrimp were vegan! I can’t wait to come back and try all of the other booths. I also really like that there’s bubble tea but I haven’t tried it yet but I’m going to and I’ll leave another review if it’s good

  • Service is great and the space is clean! good variety of food. my favorited spot is probably hongos mágicos for sure since i think they got the flavor down packed.

  • I’ve never been so excited and motivated to leave a Google review. I need to tell the world about this place because it’s awesome.

    I’ve been a vegetarian for 22 years and moved to Chicago from the southwest last year. I’m surprised I haven’t seen anything like this in Los Angeles. I’m happy that it’s in Chicago because we get a nice variety of comfort food 😋

    The grocery store has items that are comparable to what you’d see in a place like Whole Foods, however, it’s amazing to walk into a place knowing that I can eat literally anything being offered.

    I ordered a taco flight from El Taco Magico. It was fantastic.

    I’m stoked that this place exists! It’s a little pricy, but having a food hall with 6 vendors in it is amazing. I understand that it’s expensive to have dietary restrictions.

    Can’t wait to come back after pay day, preferably with a group of friends after having an edible to share stuff from the food hall.
