“Great Pupusas and the service is good and it's almost as good as Diagos moms. I had to come back and have more pauses. OMG this place cooks as if my Tia Dolores.”
“We went to this restaurant before, when it was smaller place, we liked it, we came back and found that is a bigger and nicer place now good to have a drink or have a good Guatemalan food or antojitos (snacks) or apetizers, I had hilachas wich is sheared beef, with carrots and potatoes stew in a típical seasoned Guatemalan sauce, it was delicious, my wife had a chiles rellenos there were good as well”
“WE HAD A GREAT EXPERIENCE WITH FOOD, SERVICE, AND AMBIENT. GREAT CHOICE.”
“Definitely some of the best food ive had in a while! The food had me doing a little happy dance🤣 Their oxtails were falling off the bone and so tender with flavor. The steak was cooked to perfection along with the chicken. My waiter Paula was so attentive and friendly with a really awesome vibe. The sangria was delicious and left me with a really nice buzz. I'm looking forward to bringing friends and family here in the future 😎”
“This was my first time dining at a Guatemalan restaurant, and it was such a treat! I’ve always wanted to try something new, and this experience didn’t disappoint. The ambiance was lovely—calm and inviting, especially in the early afternoon when it wasn’t too crowded. We ordered the churrasco-style steak with asparagus, and it was absolutely delicious. I’m already looking forward to coming back to try another dish. One thing to note is that parking can be a challenge since it’s in the heart of Chicago, especially if street parking is full. But overall, it’s well worth the visit!”
“Absolutely lovedddd this place! Best Guatemalan food I've tried! Very happy very satisfied! Service was good the ladies there were very efficient and attentive! Had their pupusa loca which was hugeee definitely not what I was expecting thought it was going to be this regular size thing and boy was I wrong this thing was huge I loved it! Ohh man and their coffee was amazing best coffee I have ever tried! Exceeded my expectations! If you want good coffee you can drink it black and it tastes amazing! Their salsas were very tasty the chips tasted fresh!”
“The food is delicious. We started with the garnachas which are delicious. The salsa verde was the best! And the pupusas! Also had the pulique. So good. And the service is great!”
“BryAnna's Restaurant offers a fantastic breakfast experience with flavorful dishes and excellent service. The meal began with warm tortillas accompanied by a rich black beans dip, setting the tone for a satisfying experience. We tried the Huevos con Carne, Desayuno con Longanisa, and Desayuno Marquense. Each dish was delicious, with the queso fresco standing out as a creamy delight. The longanisa was perfectly seasoned and hit the spot, while the grilled ribeye steak was tender and cooked to perfection. The service was attentive, ensuring our needs were met, and the ambiance was cozy, making it an ideal spot for breakfast. BryAnna’s is a must-visit for anyone looking for a hearty and flavorful meal to start their day. A great Guatemalan restaurant!”
“So this was our first time as a Mothers Day gift and I was disappointed. The flavors were good but the portions were too small. We even ordered an 8 oz skirt steak to go and it looked smaller than stated. When we opened the to go box for our son we were so surprised of the presentation and the portions of what we paid. The rice used was pilaf and the beans were good but once again an appetizer amount. I’m from the Central American region and these are not the portions that are given out as meals. My margarita was more alcohol than mango flavor plus they had tajin on the brim. Won’t be going back and disappointed We had more chips than food by the way chips were good but to didn’t pay for chips.”
