Eric Hoffhines: I had the master blaster with a fig, vanilla, and pepper Italian soda! Both were excellent! We'll definitely be back soon.
sophie m: It's relaxing and quiet on weekday mornings. Get the Cowboy Killer and some coffee, and cozy up with a book, or enjoy people-watching from a window seat. They have free wifi too.

Conor Bezane: The homemade Italian sodas are yummy.
Eloisa Luistro: Kopi Cafe is my fave for a spot of Yerba Matte tea or a pot of Jasmine herbal. Order the hummus veggie platter, yum!
Alex: Totally chill place to sit on floor cushions and pass time. Great coffee, juice, vegetarian sandwiches. Writer Aleksandar Hemon is a regular.
Tina Weidenhammer: A great tucked away spot in Uptown/Buenas Park. Eclectic space perfect for catching up or quietly working. Good freelancers spot for a change of scenery. #leapliving
Jenn Kloc: I feel compelled to speak up about the fact that I always get amazing service at Dollop! The staff are super friendly and cool despite what the other 4sq tips say. Also, order the Brie sandwich.

Chicago Tribune: You can enjoy budget-friendly pizzas here, as well as some house made pastas. Try the toothsome duck egg spaghetti with creamy pork sugo and grated caciocavallo cheese, a sinfully rich indulgence. Read more.
Kevin M. McNally, CMP: Simply shared, tasty food offerings at a value price and served via a friendly staff. You must try the Risotto; the flavor cooked perfectly. Applause-Applause for this restaurant.

Danielle Leyshon: Best hot coco & peach tea
