American Food in North Park, Chicago

“I’ve had smash burgers across several states, This is truly the best one I’ve had! Quality and fresh ingredients! The service is friendly and they even gave us free ice cream when they had too much to serve! Love the menu. Definitely worth traveling across the city to get to this burger! 10/10 would recommend.”

“My veggie folks! The Veggie burger was fire! It was a black bean burger and it was so moist and flavorful. The chipotle sauce that comes with it, so good. Definitely coming back!”

“Chez Adele is a North Park neighborhood restaurant and bar that blends West African flavors with American comfort food. The menu features favorites such as smash burgers, steak and chicken suya, jollof rice, egusi stew with fufu, peanut butter stew, seafood, wings, tacos, and creative appetizers like suya deviled eggs and beef dumplings. With its mix of bold spices, hearty dishes, and casual neighborhood atmosphere, Chez Adele offers a unique take on Chicago dining that brings West African inspired flavors together with familiar American favorites.”

“If you like crispy fried chicken, this one is amazing. Side salad was super fresh, lots gully dressed and not your standard iceberg/tomato/cucumber. Everything on the menu looks good, can’t wait to come back.”

“We had the best catered meal tonight from Chez Adele! The food was absolutely incredible, perfectly cooked and packed with flavor. The spread included plantains, rice, short ribs, chicken wings, chicken kebabs, hummus, glazed carrots, and Brussels sprouts, each dish better than the last. Every member of our family loved it. I will 100% be going back and will definitely use Chez Adele for future catered events. Highly recommend!”

“The food is fantastic! We had fried plantains, beef dumplings, crispy brussel sprouts, bacon smash burger with hand cut fries, and maffe with chicken. The menu reflects the owners’ family with a mix of American classics and traditional African dishes. The service was prompt, friendly and welcoming. We had everything we needed at all times. Atmosphere was clean and comfortable. Well designed and decorated, with sparkling clean restrooms. We had an amazing experience and will definitely be back!”

“Fantastic local restaurant! Service is always good and every menu item is superb. I love their smash burgers but recently enjoyed the chicken chimichurri sandwich and red snapper, which were both great. Now I gotta go back to try the ribs after seeing someone else order them!”

“The smash burger and fries were delicious perfectly cooked w/ great flavor. The smoked salmon deviled eggs were great also. The rum cake was for dessert, definitely recommend. Everything tasted fresh and homemade, and the service was warm and friendly. Nothing lacked flavor. Definitely a spot worth coming back to!”
