In the heart of Greektown, open late night spot. Strong drinks and cool, old school Greek welcoming owner all the way from Cyprus likes buying shots for guests.

I stumbled upon this place during The outdoor Greek Town food Fest. The roasted Lamb is to die for!!!! The man who took my order at the Fest was super super nice & greeted me with the nicest smile & courteous as heck. My first time there. I'm definitely going back to the restaurant. If the service is anything like I got at the Greek Fest...this is definitely going to be a regular for me!!!
Hands down this was the BEST tasting & superb food quality booth at the Festival today!!!
If the gentleman who served me at the Fest today is reading this .... thank you thank you thank you for your outstanding service :) !!!!

Ordered a few tequila sours and our server/bartender didn’t ask us which tequila to use. The bill comes and we see he charged us for don julio when we did not specify in the first place. We assumed he’d give us rail tequila since he didn’t ask us for a specific kind. Then when we asked why he charged us for don julio and not a brand off the rail he said “what rail? You wanted tequila”. What a joke.

Such an amazing experience for my friends bday..we came from atlanta to visit, and by fatr had the best time here the entire time we were in chicago. The bartender Glen is amazing, so down to earth, and he and the owner Andy made the bday girls night with their amazinf hospitality. Thank you again for such a great night!

Came in town for my friends birthday this place was amazing. Gave off a dive bar feel but the food was amazing better than you would expect from a dive bar. I know I said amazing twice but that is how good this place is. Bartender Glen was personable and gave quick and great service. Even met the owner Andy you could feel his passion for this place even in our short interaction. Definitely making this place a must visit every time I come to Chicago

Jimmy and Glenn where the most humblest most amazing people on earth even tho they were busy they handled like always and made everyone happy props to them
I've been a regular at Spectrum Bar and Grill for 10 years and it's hands down the best. The food is fantastic, and it's the only true neighborhood bar left in Greek Town. The staff is always friendly and makes every visit enjoyable. Highly recommend!

Food was decent but service is horrible. I've been there 3 times at different times and the old man (whom I believe is the owner) is very rude and acts like you're bothering him. Them being open late is probably why they are still in business

The bartender was rather rude and refused to accept my very legit credit card because it had the Apple logo on it. I tried to explain it’s a very real credit card but I feel like they were incorrectly assuming it was a prepaid or something. Honestly the experience was just silly and proves the lack of knowledge. She could have charged my card right there if there was concern. Instead, she told me I should go to the ATM ?
At the end of the day, there are too many other options in the area. I happily gave the same energy and walked myself out and had a fabulous evening at a better establishment.
To management: the apple titanium card is a credit card from Goldman Sachs accepted internationally. It’s pretty easy to recognize because it’s a rather thick titanium with a very clear master logo on it. I’ve never seen a business just outright refuse to accept this.

Spectrum is the BEST BAR with the BEST FOOD in Chicago!! I dare you to find better chicken wings!! Andy, the owner, has taken great pride in making Spectrum an ideal place to hangout with friends for over 35 years. I’ve been a loyal patron for over 7 years, and there’s no pretense at this bar. Everyone has a good time!
