Un Amor

Super GemWest Town · Latin American Community-sourced, unverified
📍 1450 W Chicago Ave, Chicago, IL 60642

Un Amor is family-owned, built around recipes passed down through generations rather than a chef's invented tasting menu -- it sources meat from Slagel Farm and bakes its own pastries in-house, a real effort at authenticity in a neighborhood with no shortage of generic Latin-fusion brunch spots cashing in on the trend.

The carne asada bowl is the reliable order, and the smash burger is the unexpected menu item that convinced people this hidden Chicago Ave spot deserved more attention.

Bottomless mimosas anchor the weekend crowd, and the margaritas are stronger than the cocktail menu's low profile would suggest. The carne asada bowl is the reliable order, but it's the smash burger -- an unexpected menu item for a Latin American brunch spot -- that convinced a lot of regulars this hidden Chicago Avenue address deserved more attention than a first glance gives it.

Yelp named it one of its Top 100 Places to Eat in the country for 2026, which tracks with the 4.8-star, 168-review local following it's built. It's closed Tuesday and Wednesday, and the rest of the week runs on a split brunch/dinner schedule, so check hours before heading over -- reservations are worth making, especially for weekend brunch, since this isn't a big room and there's no lot, just street parking.
