"Attagirl was a restaurant known for its unique identity, tapping into the spirit of Café Marie-Jeanne with a distinct menu and atmosphere. Opened in November 2023 by Bunny and Matt Sussman, it featured a varied menu and a notable ambiance. However, Bunny exited in mid-December, leading to changes in the restaurant's direction." - Lisa Shames
"Anyone missing the cheeseburger or veggie burger from Cafe Marie-Jeanne can find them during brunch at Attagirl, the new Logan Square restaurant from the teams at CMJ and Table, Donkey and Stick. The eclectic menu offered Saturday through Monday also features housemade lox, poutine, breakfast sandwiches and griddle cakes, providing a mix of new dishes and favorites from the all-day cafe. Make a reservation through Tock." - Samantha Nelson, Eater Staff
"Atta Girl is a bar and bistro that's good for charcuterie and wine for a first date, or getting the excellent burger with smoked tomato jam if you make it to round two. Their menu is vaguely French, and the dimly lit space makes everyone look exponentially more attractive whether they're sitting at the bar or snuggled up in a big leather booth. If your date is easily wooed by poultry in sexy lighting, their plate of half a smoked duck with a dollop of pâté sitting on fluffy fries can help. " - adrian kane, john ringor
"The owners of Table, Donkey & Stick in Logan Square have turned their attention to recreating the menu at Cafe Marie-Jeanne, a beloved all-day cafe that closed during the pandemic. Their breakfast sandwich comes with a choice of seasonal marinated veggies, bacon, or sauce, plus butterkase, and an egg." - Ashok Selvam, Eater Staff
"Attagirl, the spiritual successor to Cafe Marie-Jeanne, thrives in Logan Square as a sibling to Table, Donkey, and Stick. They recently expanded the menu and added pasta dishes from Wilson Bauer’s Flour Power. The frites have become a staple and are cut slightly thicker than standard fries, but not as thick as steak fries. The texture remains crispy and the interiors remain creamy; the shape also proves versatile. Any fry can be enjoyed on their own or with dips, but these fries genuinely excel either way. The smoked duck version is probably the most popular." - Naomi Waxman, Ashok Selvam
