So what do you do after driving 1200 miles from Chicago? A place sometimes called the Greek and Polish Midwest when it comes to food? Go directly to Gaufres and Goods and tell your Greek friends at home the hummus is the best we have ever tasted. The addition of strips of sun dried tomatoes and thick gooey Balsamic vinegar. So stealing that genius move. Our wait staff Jessica was charming, knowledgeable and quicker than you would expect considering she was working a short day by herself. We must of timed it perfectly as we got there and was able to order and eat while the lunch crowd converged. The menu read like a who's your Greek aunt or Polish nana in the back. Authentic and delish.

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

I was just looking for a place to sit and enjoy the weather when I saw the tables in the alley way. I love Greek food so decided to try a few different dishes. I've never had sweet perogies before so had to try the blueberry ones. They were so good! I also tried the Greek salad with gyro meat which was piled so high I had to move half to a separate plate. The tzatziki sauce was always amazing. Server was really kind and the atmosphere in that alley was so peaceful. I'll definitely go back!
