Great spot for happy hour or a work lunch . Good food and drinks. Would not go here on weekends given loop location though.

Linda Felter

On a nice day your best bet to get a table outside for happy hour is to go early (4pm) or go late (6:30pm).

Jason

This is great spot, be sure dress to impress. I heard from my local business acquaintance the patio is the place to be in the spring & summer time.

Autumn Choi

Good place for work lunches . Salads & cheese curds are good. And good/seasonal beer selection

Pros: Good food, great beer selection , nice outdoor space . Cons: Always a zoo . Seems like you need a "reservation " for just about any table during happy hour . Service is BRUTAL.

Weekly Seafood specials! Snapper , Salmon , shrimp ... always amazing!

Serious Eats

Most of the menu is a miss, except for the incredibly solid club sandwich .

Come here with coworkers for drinks. Good beer menu . Standard Loop drink prices. Food menu is decent, but on the higher priced side.

Cosette Eliason

There’s nothing special here. I always trust Foursquare to give me good recommendations, but this is the first time in 3 years it’s disappointed. The food was dry & flavorless, & the drinks were weak.

Chazamm

If you like Sausage Fests this is a must stop

@nicoleyeary

as my first time, & it was cold out? The warm potato soup is great!

Crain's Chicago Business

The menu looks tempting, but the kitchen too often plays it safe and middle-of-the-road. Read more

Beautiful building but such a long wait on weekends. Definitely plan to go at a non-peak time if you don't want to wait 2-3 hours. We decided to walk around the city instead - C Bailey
