👍👍 Well this is a long time in coming! I've been to all the other places for espresso in Elmhurst. Always intended to try Pilot Petes. Fantastic shots! Great people too. Don't miss this gem. Not much seating but if you love great coffee don't miss it.

Poke Burrito Elmhurst
Japanese restaurant
👍👍 My favorite lunch place near where I work. I cannot find any issues with this place. I takeout and the food is always out perfectly early, the portions are just right and filling, and the food is of great quality. For all of that, the price is also very reasonable.

I am picky about eating out anymore. The hubby found this little new gem, super happy we checked them out.

Victory Meat and Seafood
