Great waterhole!
if in chicago, drop by
Fresh hot meals just below the street level to get away from the work crowd. Friendly staff. Quick service. Great food!
Lots of character and a great hostess! The TNT tacos are the best!

Cardozo's Pub is a cozy and inviting spot, nestled in the city center, ideal for a casual night out or a date. The atmosphere is fantastic, despite its basement location. Drinks are reasonably priced and skillfully made, impressing both local and out-of-town guests. The pub has a mix of a super divey and old-school vibe, with legal textbooks lining the walls that add to its unique charm. It’s perfect for those seeking a no-frills experience with solid food and drinks; they even offer pretty cheap food, like $10 for a beer, a burger, and fries on Wednesdays. The food menu features good, comforting options such as the Italian beef with hot peppers and Shrimp Scampi, which includes gulf shrimp sautéed in garlic butter served over linguini marinara. The fries are crispy, and the sandwiches are super tender and flavorful. The staff is friendly and provides prompt service, making it a great spot for a laid-back meal or drinks. Service is commendable, with a particularly welcoming manager. Although the pub closes early at 8 pm, this suits those who need to head to work the next day. This pub is a must-visit for anyone looking to soak in the local vibe and enjoy a memorable experience.
