Mexican-American brunch spot with chilaquiles, burgers, and French toast
"Pochos describes itself as “your friendly neighborhood brunch restaurant,” and that’s exactly what it is. The menu at this Mexican cafe is mostly sweet and savory brunch dishes. During the week, it’s the kind of cozy yet fun place you want to stay at and hang (until 3pm, when it closes during the week), with colorful decor and upbeat music played at a volume that’s still a vibe but doesn’t force you to yell across the table. But Pochos is extremely busy on the weekends (when it's open until 9pm), so expect a long wait if you visit at brunch time." - adrian kane, alyssa reyes, veda kilaru, john ringor
"Pochos describes itself as “your friendly neighborhood brunch restaurant,” and that’s exactly what it is. The menu at this Mexican cafe in Pilsen is mostly sweet and savory dishes, like caramel french toast or chorizo eggs benedict, plus sandwiches—including a tasty Cuban sandwich with pickled mustard seed aioli that we’d be happy to eat at 9am or 3pm (when Pochos closes).

"A Pilsen brunch destination that hosted a daytime music-and-coffee takeover featuring reggaeton, merengue, and Latin house paired with chilaquiles, churro French toast, and café de olla." - Serena Maria Daniels

"The former Plymouth rooftop has been rebranded from the same family behind Hollywood Grill and Griddle21. Ownership feels Mexican cuisine and beverages can bring some energy back into the space with drinks like sangria, margaritas, and palomas. Despite the new decor, the space remains a classic." - Ashok Selvam
