Although the menu at this Humboldt Park favors comfort food and Southern favorites, there are plenty of Latin and Southwestern-inspired dishes in the mix. Expect choices like sausage gravy with buttermilk biscuits, French toast and a breakfast burrito for early-risers; chicken and waffles and huevos rancheros make the weekend brunch menu (remember to bring your own hangover helper, CJ's is BYOB). Lunch highlights include meatloaf and pulled pork sandwiches, plus everyone's childhood fave, a sloppy Joe. Best bets on the dinner menu include a chili-rubbed sirloin with fried corn and mojito-glazed chicken with mashed sweet potatoes. The sunny, earth-toned storefront features exposed brick offset by colorful art.
