"Fans of popular Pilsen juice bar Belli’s had to say goodbye in late 2023 when its owner moved away from Chicago. But hope springs eternal as its replacement, Gracias Maria, retains its predecessor’s focus on smoothies and cold-pressed juice and has carried over many of Belli’s menu items. These include hits like La Sirena smoothie — previously known as the Blue Mermaid — with spirulina, coconut water, banana, and almond butter." - Sam Nelson
