Went for dinner before a gig at the salt shed. What a wonderful experience, the food was phenomenal (the cornbread and the fried chicken in particular) and the service was outstanding. Loved it and we will be back soon I am sure.
We visited this establishment for Chicago black restaurants week. According to my partner the fried chicken was phenomenal. The moist cornbread was not sweet with actual corn niblets - which i can appreciate. But the star was the mushroom and grits. I love a good savory vegetarian option. The mushroom had a very nice flavor. I hope this is an actual dish on their standard menu. The atmosphere was warm and would be beautiful during the summer months in Chicago.
My boyfriend and I visited on a Thursday night and the vibe was very chill. We ordered the pork chop sandwich and the chicken burger and both were amazing. The pork chop was tender and the breading was well seasoned. I loved the fries (I’m a French fry expert so I know what I’m talking about) and the gin cocktail was delicious. Usually I don’t do desert but our server suggested the apple pie empanadas which were amazing. Definitely will be back!
