Great local bar by the train. Easy stopoff on the way home, great food, great bartenders, lively atmosphere. Definitely worth a visit. Waiting for them to bring back their Bacon In A Glass appetizer!

Came here on a weekday evening, I will say if you're here for the bar this would be a decent experience, but if you're coming here for food be prepared for subpar service. There are no servers and the bartenders fill that role, but there were only two and as bartenders usually do, they talk with the people at the bar. We ordered food and drinks, and didn't get our drinks until another server came and tried to take our order again. Food was decent if not a bit pricy.

Very beautiful and upscale place. We had a good amount of luggage with us, but they allowed us to bring it in by our table. Our server, Autumn, was very friendly and professional, and quick with service despite being the only front of house worker as far as we could tell.She made us our tropical storm right away as we waited for our pork rinds and quarter chicken. The rinds were warm and crisp with an amazing flavor and just the right amount of spice. The chicken dish came out when we were half finished and looked and smelled amazing. You could tell them chicken, cabbage and potatoes were all very fresh and cooked to perfection. We got a peach honey sangria to finish off with the meal and absolutely loved it as well. Everything was perfect and worth every penny.

Went here for a cocktail and music at 9PM on a Saturday night. The crowd was dead upon arrival and I hate to say it but establishments with mostly black crowds always have so many rules. They wouldn't allow anyone to sit unless they paid for bottle service. Mind you the place was dead for another 1.5 hours after the initial inquiry about chairs and sitting. Ridiculous. To add insult to injury, they have the nerve to have this rule and the place is not that great looking decor/ambiance wise and the bathroom didn't even have any soap in it. Like baby what are you doing? Hated it. Do better. Will never return.

Wings stale af and drinks just ok. Service is decent and that ambiance is low key and chill after hours.

The black bean burger is fine, don’t think I’d get it again. Friends had the tomato appetizer which they said was great.

Rude. Terrible customer service. I had booked a table for dinner for a party almost a week in advance and on the day I called they just said the person not available and hung up.

HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE!! The service was incredibly slow to non-existent. The food was mediocre. Will not be coming back and will encourage colleagues to not come back either.

The ambiance is so cool. Very convenient location. Best mule drink Ive ever had. The stars off are because the service was very slow. Normally I wouldn't comment on it, but it took almost half an hour to get menus and another half an hour to get the food.
Nice bar next to windows and felt like I was in a movie from long ago. I was a spy killing time. Excellent cocktails and not so great food unless you're starving. I enjoyed my stay even though the carpeting was pretty dirty.

We went to this restaurant upon arriving from the Metra. My wife and I loved the food (roasted chicken sandwich and artichoke toast).We went in the early afternoon so not busy at all if you're really hungry and don't want to wait. The server was great - made good recommendations and checked in on us just the right amount. Atmosphere is dim and relaxing. We'd go again.

Nice place inside of Ogilvie train station for a quick cocktail and bite. They also have a nice early happy hour that starts at 3 pm. I will be

This place is great. It’s a Saturday night and hardly anyone here. There is minimal signage on the street side. Would have walked right by. Management needs to get its act together. Very good food, service and ambiance.

Poor service.Actually no service after my order was placed.Needed to call across the bar for the check.If you’re not a regular, find someplace else to kill time.
