We met friends at Comida tonight (in Evanston), rooftop seating. It was my first time there. I was skeptical at first, after reading not so great reviews about this restaurant. -- For the record I give this place 5 stars. The staff was so amazing, kind, accommodating, friendly, and prompt. It was a bit chilly tonight so we asked them to light the table top burner, and they did it right away, happily! It started drizzling and we asked for an umbrella and they gave us one, happily! We wanted a photo and asked if they can take ... read more
This place had cute reviews and I definitely missed Evanston food (I was NorthShore Yelp Elite for many many years before Milwaukee). I love the food in Evanston and wanted to take someone out local out to dinner here. My guest picked Comida out of the four or five choices I gave and we both enjoyed it. 1) I highly recommend a reservation. We reserved a spot for 2 on a Saturday (early) and noticed the tables getting full. For two people, we were not seated by the window but near it (by a table with a booth on one end, and a... read more

Oh no! So excited to try Comida but unfortunately didn't live up to expectations. Let's give it another try- these are tough times for restaurants with labor shortages and more. Service was slow, food was mostly warm (not hot) tortilla chips were oily. Such a bummer. Possibly easily explained by being short staffed. So will try to go with an open mind one more time and will let you know.

We made reservations at Comida before the Purdue/Northwestern basketball game to grab a few drinks and an appetizer. I had a couple margaritas which were perfectly made. We got the nachos with steak and they were really good! The service was outstanding and everyone we encountered was super friendly. I recommend making a reservation if you're going to a game because it got very busy an hour and a half before tip off.

We ate here in early December 2021 and really enjoyed it. My burrito grande (black beans, rice, mixed vegetables, shredded cheese, garnished with guacamole, sour cream, and green chili sauce) was really good--too big to be picked up to eat but easy enough to get at with knife and fork. The chips came with three types of salsa. I wanted one of them to be spicy, but none were -- each of them was good, different from typical salsas. I was pleased to see that there are numerous vegetarian options (not just entrees that you can ... read more
