Saucy Porka South Loop - Chicago

The food is great! Wish they were open on the weekends too.

I'd give this place a 10/10 if I could, I have only been to this location once, but the service and atmosphere here is by far the best out of all the locations. (I've been to all) I will happily come back.

Ok… wow, I’m a HUGE pho fan, so coming to a fusion restaurant like this I wasn’t setting the bar high, but their Mexi Pho is KILLER! Absolutely was not expecting that

Saucy Porka is a solid lunch takeout spot in the Loop for creative Vietnamese Latin American fusion. Though overall, it’s a bit pricey for the portions (which aren’t that large), it offers pretty fair and standard prices for the Loop area. As for Banh mis, so far I’ve tried the Ropa Vieja Beef Banh Mi, Cheesy Buddha Banh Mi, Soy Ginger Tofu Banh Mi. The banh mis are creative and unique, but tasted pretty average overall. The Ropa Vieja Beef was very flavorful with the meat seasoning and kimchi flavor combo, but the beef was a little dry and the sandwich itself was really soggy. The Cheesy Buddha and Soy Ginger Tofu banh mis were both pretty solid, but neither really stood out for me. I also tried the Tofu, Duck, and Grilled Shrimp Bacos. The tofu baco tasted pretty standard. The duck baco was good, but a bit lacking in flavor, unfortunately. The grilled shrimp taco was my favorite, pairing very well with the sauce and corn toppings for a nice tangy flavor. I’ve both gotten takeout and dined in here. It’s very casual and you sit wherever there’s space. The takeout orders are usually filled pretty fast and wrapped nicely. — Price (relative to peers): 4.1 5 Food: 4.1 5 Ambience: N A Service: N A Overall Value: 4.1 5
