527 Cafe

The food is good, but is basically on par with many decent, authentic Chinese restaurants. Prices are higher and long wait times make it hard to give 4 stars.

Authentic and delicious Taiwanese food. Service can be a little slow sometimes so order ahead if you're in a hurry. I gave them 4 stars over a year ago. However, they raised the price of many items over the year, including some of my go-to rice dishes. I still visit them when I crave certain Taiwanese food. But at this point I feel like it's not really worth it anymore, so down to 3 stars.

Counter-service Taiwnese Cafe with a decent variety of breakfast items and popular Taiwnese rice dishes. Most of the dishes here are comfort food. Either the pork chop rice or minced pork rice are my go to favorites. Service is very snappy and good for both sit-down and takeout.

A-ma working here is very friendly and efficient. The food is authentic, comparable to what I had in Taiwan. Bubble tea is subtle, not grossly sweet, and thus tastes healthier. Definitely try the signature Taiwanese dish rice with pork!

The beef noodles, fried chicken, shaved ice are sooooo good! The best meal had near Chicago
