527 Cafe - Evanston

Love this place!!! The only place I go when I miss Taiwanese food.

The reason I rated this place so highly was not only due to the availability of snacks and dishes that you normally don 't see, but also because of the warm and friendly customer service provided at this restaurant. I was also pleased when I saw their 'breakfast menu '. They had 油条 (youtiao) which is similar to a fried cruller and 豆漿 (Dou Jiang)... warm soy milk- breakfast items that I miss from the days spent in China when I studied abroad there for a year.

Quick and friendly. I ordered the black sesame milk tea with taro boba at 30% sugar level, beef noodle soup, and green onion pancake. Everything was delicious. Noodles were cooked well and beef was tender; very flavorful soup. If I could eat more I would have ordered two or more items to try.

We love coming here whenever we’re in Evanston! Our favorites are the popcorn chicken, beef noodle soup, and the Taiwanese style fried rice. We also love trying the new drinks on their menu! Highly recommend!

This is an amazing little cafe serving delicious Taiwanese food. Portions are extremely generous, and they don't skimp on meat. I was still finding chunks of beef in my beef noodle soup long after another restaurant's dish would have run out. For dessert, the shaved ice is highly customizable and great for sharing! Also, the employees were very nice. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone craving Taiwanese food, or trying it for the first time.
