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...

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
