Waverly Humphrey: Love this place, have the passion fruit tart. It will knock your socks off. Everything is fresh and good.
Veezworld: Get the panna cotta or chocolate hazelnut tart if available that day!
JenKudu: If you love key lime pie, try the passionfruit tart! It's tart and delicious. The quiche is pretty incredible too. I'm glad I don't live nearby ;)
Robert Bratney: The char siu pineapple pork bun is one of the best things I've eaten this year, and the Pasteis de Nata were a taste of Portugal. We will be coming back regularly!
Amy Graff: The only place in Chicago (I've found) to get Hong Kong milk tea & yuanyang! Pastries are incredible & creative - love the char siu pineapple bun, miso brownie & egg tart. Cute space, great service.
Neal U.: Fancy Chinese and vaguely Asian-y pastries that are amazingly delicious.

Xinnie: Finally found another good fried dough place in Chinatown. They also have mouth watering Portuguese tart, highly recommend!!!
Marilyn Collins: The Portuguese custard tart is better here than in Lisbon, Portugal - the origin of this treat!
edisonv 😜: Never leave Chinatown without passing by! Grab some eggs tarts, melon pan, Char Sui Baos to go! 🥮🧇🥧

Serious Eats: Baked Egg Tarts: Featuring a fine, flaky crust and a sunshine yellow egg filling, that jiggles uncontrollably at the barest movement, it's an indulgence worth braving the crowd for.
Jaim: Must try - Egg tart, steamed creamy egg yolk bun, baked green chive puffs, & pan fried turnip cake; OK - Veggie tofu crepe; Don't try - BBQ pork turnover, and rice noodle with shrimp (cheong fan)
Jennie Yu: egg tarts chow fun

Jason Siegfried: You must try a tart, they are incredible!
Julia Park: Mexican milkshake, fruit tart, and strawberry lemonade :) to die for
Janelle Peters: I always recommend the Med(s) to those visiting Hyde Park. Café au lait, pastries, fruit pies and tarts, etc. Their OJ was always warm and sunny during my AM... in religion.

Serious Eats: Bake gets the Blueberry Muffin right: a springy, not-so-sweet interior packed with tart, bursting blueberries, capped with a crumbly oat top.
Kavitha Sagi: Bacon cheddar scones are to die for, if you can get one!
Jeff Chenoweth: Bake is usually open at 7:00 am, not 9:00am.
Matt Dicker: Chocolate and passionfruit is one of life’s most underrated flavor combinations, and the Passionfruit Chocolate Hazelnut Caramel Tart at Lost Larson is proof of that. Absolutely outstanding.
Lynn Chicago: Friendly service, great strawberry/rhubarb brioche and addictive Lavender Latte!
Phoenix Jimenez: Try the Kale and Cheddar scone

Alison: This is my absolute favorite spot in the city for pastries/desserts. My favorite is the fruit custard tart, but everything is just delicious!
Helen Park: Apple galette is amazing - will come back to try the apple strudel
Time Out Chicago: Don’t miss the corned-beef hash: heavy on the smoky-salty beef, easy on the potatoes, flecked with fresh herbs and topped with two perfectly poached eggs.
