Molly EMarch 4, 2015Great spot for happy hour or a work lunch. Good food and drinks. Would not go here on weekends given loop location though.
Linda FelterAugust 15, 2014On a nice day your best bet to get a table outside for happy hour is to go early (4pm) or go late (6:30pm).
JasonApril 4, 2014This 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 ChoiMarch 28, 2018Good place for work lunches. Salads & cheese curds are good. And good/seasonal beer selection- SpringRewardsNovember 21, 2013Great place to relax & grab some drinks/food after work. An escape from the hustle & bustle of the Loop.

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.
Serious EatsFebruary 3, 2014Most of the menu is a miss, except for the incredibly solid club sandwich.
Stephanie BustillosAugust 23, 2011In the mist of busking downtown Chicago a chic and affordable restaurant and bar attracting the usual professionals and explorers alike.
Shannon CurrieFebruary 28, 2014Ask for Katie Hogberg she's the best server...great attitude and very attentive to our table.
Cherai LewisJuly 2, 2013The entree salads are yummy! They also substituted meats so I appreciated the flexibility.- KateDecember 28, 2011Buffalo chicken rolls are the best I've had ! Awesome way to start off happy hour at this popular loop bar
Jacqueline McFaddenJanuary 1, 2013I would luv to try:Herb Crusted Salmon Sautéed spinach, grape tomatoes, roasted tomato coulis sauce
Fish tacos, buffalo chicken wrap and the new Tar Heel BBQ sandwich are top notch
Brad SaxonAugust 7, 2014Come here with coworkers for drinks. Good beer menu. Standard Loop drink prices. Food menu is decent, but on the higher priced side.
Mariana FilizolaJune 14, 2011Wonderfull!!! Shrimps are the best that i ate in my abole life! I really loved!!!
I feel like 75% of Chicago's über attractive population hangs out here, esp once the weather improves...
- The Nola salad is to die for! Love the citrus vinaigrette dressing.
Cosette EliasonFebruary 20, 2018There’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.
Crain's Chicago BusinessOctober 25, 2012The menu looks tempting, but the kitchen too often plays it safe and middle-of-the-road. Read more
