“This hidden gem is exactly that. Under Moon Palace is my new favorite speakeasy. With a wide array of cocktails of all your favorite Liquors and a knowledgeable staff to help guide your decisions, Nine Bar is a perfect spot to enjoy with friends or a date night. The prices are very reasonable with $13-15 per drink but my favorite is Malort shots for $6. The dim lighting and music you can vibe to are a perfect storm for drink any dy of the week. Highly recommend... Or don't go and I can enjoy all to myself! ?“
“I’ve been here many times and have always had good food and good service. The menu changes based on the seasons though a few options are always on the menu. I’ve never had a bad meal here. The duck is very good, but they have excellent fish and vegetarian options. Once, service was slow, and they comped us a pasta they brought to us while we waited for what we had ordered and the dessert we ordered at the end. Which brings me to the other positive of Duck Inn and that’s the service. I’ve never had bad service here. The Duck Inn is a special place and reflects well on the Chicago food scene.“
“A Culinary Adventure at ASH Gastropub: Where Industrial Rustic Meets Gastronomic Delight. ASH Gastropub is a hidden culinary gem that seamlessly blends an industrial rustic aesthetic with a lively atmosphere, making it a must-visit for those seeking a unique dining experience. The moment you step in, the undeniably charming decor grabs your attention. Exposed brick walls, metal accents, and an industrial vibe set the stage for an inviting and trendy ambiance. The vivacious atmosphere at ASH Gastropub is a delightful experience in itself. The open and airy space, coupled with a well-stocked bar, creates a lively vibe that is perfect for unwinding with friends or savoring a solo dining adventure. The industrial-chic aesthetic, combined with thoughtful design choices, fosters a welcoming environment that invites patrons to relax and enjoy their time. As a first-time visitor, I decided to venture into uncharted culinary territory and opted for the Cajun Broiled Shrimp served over handmade fettuccini with a creamy Alfredo sauce. Let me tell you, each bite was a revelation. The star of the plate, Each plump shrimp is delicately seasoned with a Cajun blend, offering a perfect balance of smokiness, heat, and savory spices. Accompanying the shrimp is a bed of handmade fettuccini that elevates the dish to another level. The pasta, cooked to a flawless al dente, possesses a tender yet satisfying bite. Its handmade nature adds a rustic touch, emphasizing the commitment to quality and craftsmanship in the kitchen. Completing the ensemble is the creamy Alfredo sauce that blankets the shrimp and fettuccini. Its velvety texture serves as a perfect canvas to carry the bold Cajun flavors while adding a comforting and indulgent element to the dish. As you savor each mouthful, the combination of the Cajun-spiced shrimp, handmade fettuccini, and creamy Alfredo sauce creates a harmonious burst of flavors. The dish is a celebration of contrasts – the heat from the Cajun seasoning, the creaminess of the sauce, and the perfect bite of the pasta come together in a culinary crescendo that leaves a lasting impression. Having discovered ASH Gastropub, I am ecstatic to have found a new culinary haven to return to. It's more than just a place to dine; it's a hidden gem where industrial chic meets gastronomic excellence and I am eager to explore more of the menu on future visits. ASH Gastropub has certainly earned its place as a true hidden gem, and I look forward to many more delightful experiences at this unique establishment.“
“You will be happy you chose to eat at Burger Antics! I had the Midland burger. The caramelized onions, Dijon mustard, and pickles were so delicious. The fries are crispy and fresh. Cocktails are delicious and balanced. And if you have room for dessert, the carrot cake has the texture of a brownie with perfect cream cheese frosting. Service is fantastic!“
“Went with a friend and my daughter last night for drinks and dinner and thoroughly enjoyed my visit! Our server was wonderful and was spot on with drink suggestions. We had the “Lost in Space” cocktail and the “Roast & Hearth” and both were perfectly balance and delicious! The bao buns were amazing, as well. Definitely will be going back and highly recommend!“
“The food is so good good drinks but the food is kind of expensive. $16 for some truffle fries they are wrapped in a cup fried hard. Their good but $16 come on man. Then 3 chicken tacos $17 the first time I ordered this was on a Thursday I got 2 margaritas I was wondering why my bill was so darn high . When I ordered food this Thursday I found out. I ordered pasta this Thursday that was almost $30 like I said the food is great shout-out to the cook. The venue is gorgeous from the outside to the inside they remodeled it's beautiful. I been coming here for years when it was la Quinta go back to those prices ..“
“Really good local restaurant. Corned beef came highly recommended. Everyone really enjoyed their meals. Really good menu with many options. We decided on the pot roast sliders with fresh cut fries. They were really good. The fresh cut fries were really good. We also had the chicken soup for an appetizer, but I would pass next time. It was good, but mostly broth for $5. I didn't think it was worth it. The server was slow, and kept forgetting things, and would disappear for extended periods. That was the only lacking thing in an otherwise pleasant experience. Will definitely go back to try other items. I definitely recommend you give it a try. Pricing is in line with other similar places, average entre is $20-$30.“
“Copper Fox is a true culinary haven! The staff's genuine hospitality elevated the entire dining experience. From the first greeting to the last bite, every moment was a delightful journey through impeccable service and mouthwatering flavors. Easily deserving of a solid 5 stars, this restaurant is a must-visit for anyone craving top-notch cuisine with a side of warmth and charm.“
“Pizza was honestly below average for Chicago’s reputation (more of a NY style myself) however; the service (bartender), drinks and music really offered quite the environment… Will try my best not to return, only because I avoid Chicago at all costs “
“10/10 for our pickup dinner order made via toast. It was super easy to place my order & my notes were followed for how I wanted my burger made. Excellent portions & prices. The staff looked like they were working hard and enjoying the atmosphere. Definitely our new go to for ordering out nights!“
