On The Go Chicago

I don’t know about you, but we tend to get stuck in a rut and go to the same restaurants over and over again.  It is such a shame given all the great restaurants in Chicago.  Non only are their lots of choices, but one of the great things about Chicago is you can introduce your kids to food from around the world by simply walking around the corner.

My family recently discovered 90 Miles to Cuban Cafe.  The food is as delicious as the atmosphere is lively.  They have two Chicago area locations (Roscoe Village – 3101 N. Clybourn and Logan Square – 2540 W. Armitage).  The Roscoe Village location has limited bar style seating, but is great for a quick bite.  The Logan Square location (just west of Margie’s Candies on Armitage) has a large dining room and a completely enclosed heated patio with a fireplace.  The service at both locations was great and the food was AMAZING.  I had the Lechon sandwich at the Clybourn location and the Ropa Vieja sandwich at the Armitage location.  They were both delicious.  My kids enjoyed empanadas, grilled cheese sandwiches and sweet plantains.  Truth be told…I may have eaten more than my fare share of plantains too!

Both locations have free parking,and offer delivery ($3 charge).  Unfortunately the Roscoe Village location does not have a public restroom or highchairs.  I would definitely recommend the Logan Square location for families.  My kids loved the music, the colorful murals and decorations and who doesn’t love sweet plantains!  Plus, you can head to Margie’s Candies for some of the best home made ice cream in town for dessert.

All and all I would give 90 Miles a 5 Highchair (Star) rating!
