Great dive bar with a rich history. $4 tall boys! It is pronounced “Knee - Say.”

Malort might genuinely be the most pleasing liquor I've drank, don't be a wimp

Great dive bar! This is our go to before and after Cubs games. If you’re looking for an espresso martini and velvet barstools this probably isn’t your vibe. If you have a sense of humor and like cold beer, highly recommend.

In town with grandkids for a concert at Wrigley, I need a dive bar to post up at for a few hours. Found Nisei and immediately felt welcome & at home! Thanks y'all for the Chicago Handshake!

Such a bad bar that I set here and wrote this review from the bar while not being served by their bartender. It wasn’t busy. There wasn’t a ball game. She just decided that she wouldn’t ask about drinks from my half of the bar. Doesn’t deserve your time or money.

Visiting from Philly heard good things about this bar . From past reviews and locals , wanted to play pool the bartender said he only serves beer and not shots . Especially a green tea shot . What bartender doesn’t make a green tea shot , so I thought maybe because he closed in 30 min he said he don’t know how to make one anymore …… what does that even mean . So can you make it or not , then proceeds to tell me and my friend to go next door if I want that . I just wanted any shot . I just think you should avoid it at all cost and what’s with the Christmas decor not very jolly , if you ask me ,
The best bar in Wrigley and one of the best in Chicago.
The only thing this place is trying to be is Nisei Lounge, and it’s doing an amazing job.

Came in here around 11 or so on a Thursday night and had a great time. I tried the peppermint Malört shot they made which was the best shot of Malört I've ever had but still terrible, which I think is the idea. Being able to play darts was a lot of fun and the general atmosphere in the bar was friendly and open.

What Big Suz doesn’t realize is the unofficial motto is Nisei is “Try TO suck today” and darn them if it doesn’t work out perfectly (also she must’ve came during a Cubs game eh?)
