Go to Cafe 28 for weekend brunch. The menu is more expansive than their dinner menu, and the food is every bit as good. Be sure to treat yourself to one of the best bloody marys in the city, too.

For Sunday brunch: be prepared to ask for things from your server at least twice. And block off at least an hour-and-a-half from the time you're seated. The food is very tasty - potatoes especially.

Have a margarita or mojito, then grab some green tamales or coconut shrimp for an appetizer. For an entree, you can't go wrong with the halibut, salmon, or super thick honey jalepeno pork chops! Leer más

The chorizo stuffed dates are so good you won't be able to control yourself. Huge fan of the pistachio crusted chicken breast.

I get the salmon every time and how could you pass up their black beans and rice?

I was introduced to the glazed pork chop and the mashed sweet potatoes. I was in Heaven! Leer más

In all honesty, best breakfast burrito and best mojito I've had in Chicago!

We'd love to go everywhere during Restaurant Week but can't. Show us what you think we should eat the next time we're at Cafe 28 with a picture of your dish. Tweet it to us @motorola. Happy eating!

Great place to go for lunch, brunch, or dinner! Love the staff and the food here. Amazing desserts, too!

The hostess is a jerk, but don't let it bother you. Other staff and mojitos, halibut and mmm fried plantains, loved it!

Um this place is awesome! Drink delicious. Food delicious. Bartender....amazing. Love it!!!!

Can't go wrong with the Honey Jalepeno Pork Chops (enough for two) and a Mojito

Go to Cafe 28. Order an Arnold Palmer. Something about the way they make it is awesome. Or add a shot of vodka to kick it up a notch. (That would be a John Daly.)

Cuban style chicken is good eats, though the bread was a bit too hard and crusty Leer más

Love the chorizo stuffed dates wrapped in bacon! High expectations for the ropa veija but it was so-so.

Great Saturday/Sunday brunch - Green Tamales with eggs and a side of Chorizo.

Great place. Love the Cuban Style Chicken.

Honey jalepeno pork chop is awesome for brunch or dinner

Absolutely right about ordering the honey jalapeño pork chops, they are fantastic!

They are a bit 'aggressive' in plate clearing so don't pause for too long - dinner should be enjoyed, not rushed.

the stuffed french toast will put you in a wonderful food coma!

Get the green tamales! So gooooood

Carne a la Parilla and butter sandwiches!

Great brunch spot with good drinks and a friendly atmosphere.

Wasn't impressed, especially for the price point. Had the Cuban Chicken and wasn't impressed by its dryness or how different it was from how I imagined it from the menu description.

Get the Ropa Vieja, que bueno!

This was okay. Not the best I have tasted.

Everything is delicious here. Great Mojitas!

Best butter in the world is here. & almond crusted halibut.

I will always come back to a restaurant if the food is good....even when the service is awful. This place has bad food and service.

the Havana Punch was amazing!

Steak sandwich is outstanding

Get the pork chops.

So sad to report that Cafe 28 is closed.

Mother fucking pork chops!

Great outdoor seating
