I discovered NYFC Restaurant & Fresh Market after finding a menu in my mailbox and was drawn to some of the items featured particularly the breakfast items. My initial visit was unexpected because I honestly just wanted to get outdoors after being indoors most of the day, but decided to see if it was open because it was enroute to where I was headed at the time. And with most places being on odd schedule hours due to COVID-19, I was surprised to see that it was open which urged me to visit to see what is offered.
The building is formerly known as Five Stars, a one stop shop that consisted of food, tobacco, cellular and restaurant that sat right next to Wallace's Catfish Corner which Wallace's has been vacant for sometime now. The exterior of NYFC appears like a simple convenient store, but once you enter it is a totally different vibe.
Never did I expect everything to be located behind a bullet proof glass, but I understand why because it is a rough area. There are individuals within it that would visit with the sole purpose of not purchasing, but leaving with something. Behind the glass you will find items ranging from cleaning products, hygiene supplies, candy, drinks, ice cream, and a variety of convenience store items available that you have to point out in order for the employee to grab.
As for restaurant food items available you there are burgers, gyros, submarine sandwiches, philly cheesesteaks, tacos & burritos, fish dinners, chicken wings & tenders, and seafood combinations. I did love the concept of two particular burgers: the Madison burger and the Westside burger which both look filling and both are in dedication to the westside of Chicago which I rarely encounter at restaurants on the westside. Out of all selections I ended up ordering a tilapia sandwich because it was the only sandwich that my tastebuds craved other than the catfish sandwich. And outside of the tilapia and catfish sandwiches, the breakfast is the only other interest I have and it is sold all day!.
This place would have easily gotten five stars from me because I loved the tilapia sandwich as well as the fries, but both would of been better with my drink which was actually forgotten and I did pay for it. I will be more cautious of that when I order in the future, but I left it alone this time. I do see NYFC Restaurant & Market doing better than majority of the businesses within the area because it offers more and its prices are better. And given the fact that everything is behind a bullet proof glass thieves wont even consider visiting which is actually a good thing for the business.

This is a convenience meal solution place. Although you might hensitate by looking at the ordering deck, I ensure you the food itself is much better than it looks.
