“Warm, cozy, and slightly upscale. The izakaya has karaoke rooms available for rent, but the vibe of the place is great for ordering a few beers, some karaage, and whatever's on special (check their Instagram).Don't forget to bring something to read. They use great coffee beans and have good pour over technique if you get a cup of coffee to cap your meal.Haven't checked out any of the live Jazz or classical music but it sounds interesting!“

“I found this place just by chance on Google and I’m glad I did. We went here for a late birthday celebration for me and the staff were so great! The food was awesome, the atmosphere was just right, I even had a random guest from outside come in and sing to me🤣 I’ll definitely be back!“

Loved Aloo & cauliflower dish My partner enjoyed robust Dal dish which had veggie tidbits to round out flavor. we loved the food here. Best Indian fare in the area!“

It is always fun, there are always new songs, and the performers are amazingly talented. Christian, Tony, Anthony and Jeremy (sorry for any misspellings) are very creative, charismatic and always put on a great show. Our favorite servers are Bree and Miriam. Can't wait to come back!“

Live music most weekends, outdoors in the summer in a large parking lot. Everybody who knows, goes there. John & Sparklyn are good people!“

“Looking forward to visiting again 😊😊“

“My husband and I are visiting from Arizona and were meeting some friends in The Glen. We planned on going to The Yardhouse, but thought it was too noisy. Saw the reviews for The Oak and we were so glad we did. The burger I had was the best burger I have ever had, our friend felt the same. My husband and our other friend had the rueben, they loved them also. We left the restaurant and we were going to take individual pics, then this really nice guy offered to take a picture of all of us. He was so very nice. Guess what, he was the owner. We will definitely be back on our next visit here and our friends will be back sooner. Great food!!!!“

“We have discovered this place 3 years ago when we are searching for an outdoor casual dining. What we found was a great place that had outdoor seating on a deck patio with umbrellas and a TV set to watch sporting events. The service was friendly, and the food was great. The drinks were very reasonable. The menu was large having everything from sandwiches to dinners. We never had a bad experience there and brought family and friends to enjoy the evening sitting outside. We always come back.“

“This place is GREAT THE People who work there are so nice …. Me & my husband had a great time drinks good and food good Jessica was so good unbelievable great

Parking: No problem parking in lot and all the tv’s in there were great and music good not loud so you can still talk (and tell jokes)“

“Try their chili! It is the best. Great atmosphere.“

“Great food and service! Warm welcoming atmosphere.“

“For bar-and-grill just coming in the town need a place to stop offers a good place to stop and close to my hotel Good friendly service food was decent If I ever come back this way I'll go back again“

“All I know is that the food is so good that I have been here 3 times since it opened (Which has been less then 6 months). I know I should branch out and try the other offerings but I just really love the Tori Paitan and will be back more when the cooler weather is fully settled in.
I also sincerely appreciate that there are good non-alcoholic mixed drinks, because sometimes someone just wants a fun mixed drink but none of the alcohol and there's quite a few options here- expanded even from the menu pictured on Google. There's a really good Yuzu based drink that I also keep getting that is my favorite.
The atmosphere is higher end but not pretentious, and cozy while still being open.

I look forward to bringing more of my friends here.

Parking: Fair amount of parking but it's in a strip mall with other restaurants so you're not always able to find a spot immediately. There's usually more parking in the back“

“was here with cousin, had good time, bartender Paula was best, offered menus & prompt service. the cheeseburger 🍔 is HEAVEN! 😓 HA.“

“We rented the sun room for a team party. It was a great space, nicely decorated, good food, helpful service - already talking about coming back for our next team meal!“

“This dive bar is a breath of fresh air in a world of overpriced, trendy spots. Here, the beer is cold, the conversation flows easily, and the atmosphere is pure, unadulterated dive bar. No fancy cocktails to be found, just a solid selection of beers, including the newly added Yuengling on tap, and a welcoming vibe that makes you want to stay all night. They also offer a few liquors for basic mixed drinks or for those who like to drink their liquor neat.“

“The Cheeseburger on a Pretzel bun was very good and I would recommend it. I like their selection of German & Craft beers. I will be back at the Old Munich Tavern next Friday.“

“We randomly stopped in hungry after getting off a flight at OHare. WOW! The food was so good and beers perfectly cold. Might be the best wings I’ve ever had!! Also had a pulled pork sandwich which was scrumptious, chicken Alfredo pasta quickly devoured by our daughter. Curly fries and sweet potato fries also 🔥! Our server, Rachel was great, too!“

“I was delighted to visit this restaurant! The atmosphere is very cozy, with pleasant decor and attentive staff. Every dish I tried was a real masterpiece, from appetizers to dessert. The assortment of kebabs was especially impressive: its taste, presentation and quality of products were at the highest level.

The service was at an excellent level - the waiters are polite, quickly respond to all requests and help with the choice of dishes.

This is a place where you want to spend time with friends or family. Will definitely be back again to try something new from their varied menu. Thank you for a wonderful evening!“

“We were in Chicago from the Puyallup Wa area. We are always on the lookout for a great neighborhood bar, and this is it! We arrived at a bit of a lull and got a seat at the bar.
The waitress was great. She took care of us and the other guests were very friendly, even sharing their Trader Joe’s popcorn, and even bought us shots.
If you are in the area this bar is a must visit for a good hometown feel even when you are across the country!“

It's a place full of locals that you can only find here!! It's got a fascinating back story and a ton of not just local history but Chicago history.! This is one of the places that the Irish Mafia used to hang out in!!! A place where the murder mystery is alive and unsolved!!! You come to a place like this and you can feel the history, feel it in your soul!! You want to check this place out!!! Ask anyone here about the history and they will tell you straight out!! Are you in the mood for a drink??? Get it here!! Are you in the mood for a quick bite?? Well you can get it here too along with a nice fresh tap or bottle of what ever beer you like!!! So let me tell you that if you are a ghost hunter?? You can find some ghosts here!! Are you a ghost buster?? Don't come here because they like their ghosts!! I hope this helps!! If you have enjoyed reading this review please like it! If not that's cool too!! I hope you have read this review and at least tried this place! If not that's cool too!! Enjoy!!!

“Great Bar Great owner great bartenders“

“My neighborhood meeting place. Great food, drinks, people, and atmosphere“

“great staff and outstanding event to raise funds for fighting Cancer.“

“Had an Italian beef sandwich here today and it was very good. Not as good as Johnnie's or Al's, but still very good considering that you're at the airport. Plenty of peppers and giardiniera if you ask for it spicy. Service was very quick and friendly as well. Not a big ship, just a little bar that serves Chicago dogs and Italian beef and for for good prices. A great find!!“

“Nice place with good food and good drink.“

“An impromptu decision to stop by the Privilege bar this evening after a long work day turned out to be the best decision for a relaxing evening. The bar located at the rooftop of the Mondrian Itaewon in Seoul only opens from 6pm and we arrived half an hour earlier but the staff on duty was accommodating to allow us to take a seat and have a look around. Great panoramic view and we arrived just in time to catch the sunset. Love the vibe and music choice. Met with Tobbig Shin, F&B Assistant / Bar Manager who arrived from Singapore after a short stint doing a pop up in Mondrian Singapore. Highly recommend to try their signature cocktail “The P.T (Privilege Gin & Tonic)”, 5 stars for creativity and distinct taste, the pairing of Sonbi Gin and tonic. Jay, the Bartender served us and he graciously included a very detailed introduction - Sonbi Gin is distilled from 100% corn. Made with 10 botanicals including juniper, Schisandra berries, Chinese licorice, grains of paradise, cassia, green cardamom, coriander, lemon peel, orris root, and Angelica root. We had a second cocktail at their recommendation, Sun & Moon, made with Tokki Soju Black Label, Roasted Barley, Lemon, Pineapple and Crafted Moon Candy. Will definitely be back the next time I’m in Seoul!“

“Dive bar vibes and old school characters“

“Always a great time at George's!“
