So I went to this restaurant back in like 2021 and can’t find or remember the place to save my life! The pancakes were so good it was a creme brûlée and keylime pie flavored pancakes. I remember it was on the north side and the wall was painted with a mural that I believe was cubs or Chicago themed and very cartoony. I also remember it was a Mexican restaurant and it was completely dead in there for brunch so I’m they still have it! As you can see it’s across the street from a 7eleven. Please help me find this place so I can have these over the top delicious pancakes again!

Does the photo have location metadata?
I think that’s the 7-11 on Clark in Lincoln Park and the restaurant is Jibaritos y Mas (EDIT: maybe just “Jibaritos” now?). That particular location has closed
If you took photos on a phone, search your photo library for “Chicago”
Im pretty sure its cocina tarascas on clark and wrightwood. Unsure if its still there
Check your Google Timeline for that day in the Google Maps app
I reckon it’s over yonder cross street from 711
Hey OP – If this is from an iPhone open one of the pictures and swipe up. You should be able to see exactly where on the map it is! As others have referenced you probably have the location and don’t know it so this is how you find it.
Good luck and please report back – would love to try these pancakes!
Looks like it’s taken from 2621 N Clark St, which is currently Art of Indian Cuisine. Not sure what it was in 2021.
What about its neighbor, Weiner’s circle? Classic Chicago!
Looks tasty 😋
Man, i went to a place in chicago called Carmine’s YEARS and had the best pancakes of my life and the tea service was superb.
Jibaritos y mas has a location on Harlem and they have a brunch menu online if you want to take a look to see if it is the same. Pretty sure they have a crème brûlée pancake on the menu.
It’s the one with the 7-11 across the street. Duh!!!
That’s the Taco Bell in the basement of the Eiffel Tower.

Photo taken from a restaurant on the Northwest corner of Clark and Wrightwood looking East. Tacos Y Mas has since closed at that location.

M Henry has good pancakes.
Try Batter & Berries on Lincoln Ave.
Welp, there’s a 7-11 on the corner in the background of the second picture, there can’t be too many of those in the city, right? RIGHT?!
