KristianaFebruary 12, 2016James Bond inspired cocktails are expertly crafted. The owner is fantastic. Beautiful ambience with a "Cheers" like attitude. Everyone here goes out of their way to make you feel comfortable.
Heather FolsomJuly 13, 2016This place is great for conversation: cozy seating & music is at a good volume. Meats & cheeses were great. Be sure to check out the restroom signs!
Vito ManzellaMarch 31, 2015Great atmosphere from such a small place, delicious cocktails and decent beer selection. Food was nothing to rave about, but I will definitely find my way back here.
Renaissance HotelsOctober 16, 2012The self-service wine dispensing systems, each offering 10 outstanding varietals by the glass (red, white and sparkling), mean you won’t be interrupted by a server or have to wait for your next glass. Read more
RobenDecember 16, 20141/2 price all bottles of wine on Tuesdays!!!! Try our self serve wine machine any time!!
Taufiq HabibMay 12, 2013The the three cheese sampler. Choose your fav cheese. Cheeses served on a real slate stone! How nice
- Martin CuellarNovember 27, 2015Trust the menu... The chalkboard above the bar is not always up to date
Victor C.July 14, 2014You HAVE to try the Malort. It is a piece of Chicago history dating back to prohibition.
Great drinks. Great servers. Perfect neighborhood bar.
Never go within 2-weeks of a Groupon expiring. 1 1/2 hours to get a drink and cheese. 50 min before first drink served. This happened before at a breakfast - staff up people, you know it's coming!
Suzanne MaAugust 29, 2012Nice atmosphere with good beer selections, but the service is not that friendly. Hopefully it will get better...
Ricel AlmadovarJuly 21, 2014Service not too friendly and for such a small menu offering they are pretty much out of everything. Kind of a let down.

"Wow Bao has a kiosk here around section 110, Baos are great & probably one of the healthiest foods here They also were giving away single Baos early, or at least gave us one."

"Yummy fall off the bone ribs with a not too sweet sauce! The pigs in a blanket were awesome too!"
Lee S - 7.5
"The double pork chop is awesome. It's 25 but worth it. The Caesar salad was better than expected. Good service."
