Reviews for Left Coast in Chicago, IL
I've come here often over the last few years however today's experience was horrible. I order the easy street wrap often (my... favorite!) and tried the "just beet it" smoothie (which I clarified was dairy free). However, when my food arrived thecashier/waitress told me "here's your easy street wrap". I thought it had less arugula but it has also been over a year sincethe last time I ate at Left Coast so I took a bite and instantly knew something was wrong. I brought it up to her and politelytold her this is not what I ordered. I showed her that there was salmon in it and she seemed very unconcerned and told me not toworry she will let the kitchen know. I told her I was worried because I have had allergic reactions to seafood and happen to bean ethical vegan which is why I've been ordering the easy street wrap. She didn't apologize. And I didn't want to cause a scenebecause it seemed like there were several to-go/pick-up orders coming in. She managed to bring out my easy street wrap within aminute (probably the one I was suppose to originally get) and then I had to remind her that I hadn't received the smoothie Iordered. I have been an ethical vegan for 8 years now and this is the first time I've felt like my dietary restrictions andpreferences were completely disregarded. Please train your staff. Read more
Friendly staff in a great environment. Lots of gluten free, vegan, and dairy free options. Cider, beer and wine available as... well! The quality of ingredients and portion sizes make it worth the price. Inside and patio seating available. Read more
Tried left coast again after a while because everything else is so good, but for $10 burning the pancakes every single time is... not alright. They also specifically put the most burnt one on the bottom, which leads me to believe they know the food is burntand are sending it out anyways. Just turn the heat down and the pancakes will cook, but not burn Read more
Usually food is great, but it?s like they said screw it with the pancakes and oatmeal. Pancakes are burnt, taste sour and smell... like they were cooked on a surface that hamburgers were cooked on. I can?t figure out what is wrong with the oatmeal. Honestlyfood from the garbage would probably taste better. Read more
Delicious lunch spot. Like a healthy food place with a Mexican twist! Fast, tasteful, healthy, and colourful! A must in the area... for a quick bite ???? Read more
Left Coast is a delicious option for the healthy-ish eaters. Good whole grain and veggie options throughout the menu. I stopped... by for breakfast and had the Hermosa Avocado Toast and a coffee. The avo toast was delicious, a bit on the pricey side at $11.50- very tasty none the less! I?ve also had a couple of their sandwiches on the last as well, also very tasty and wellprepared. Definitely recommend! Read more
Left Coast was really tasty! Decided to go here because I wanted a healthier option for lunch. I got the ?CALIFORNIA LOVE? wrap... which has chicken breast, black beans, brown rice, romaine, red onion, roasted tomato salsa, avocado, tahini-yogurt, whole grainwrap. I loved this wrap! It was great! It is on a bed of salad also which I loved! I also split with my friend a ?ROBUST ROSA?salad which had kale, spinach, roasted broccoli, red onion, roasted tomato, toasted hemp seeds, avocado caesar dressing. It wastasty. The hemp seeds add an extra element to the salad. The prices are a little high but it was good the food! Read more
Love Left Coast! The açaí bowl and buckwheat pancakes are great for breakfast, and the smoothies are unmatched anywhere else.... A true gem. The app is great to order ahead and skip the line. The only small thing I would say is the coffee could be a bitbetter. Hope to see this brand continue to grow in the future. Read more
