“If you’re in the vicinity of Oak Lawn or Evergreen Park, you will find South Side Social to be a great choice for a well-prepared meal, a relaxing drink, and friendly and attentive service. In particular, the bartenders make you feel at home — and make you a great drink! With ample parking and an easy-to-reach location, it’s my go-to spot in the area.

“Absolutely Perfect Night at Oliver's

Everything about our experience at Oliver's was amazing and absolutely worth it. Here’s what stood out:

Drinks: The Oliver’s Martini is an absolute must-try – and trust me, upgrading to the caviar olives is a game changer. The Espresso Martini was another standout, and the Old Fashioned was perfectly crafted.

Food: Every bite was a delight. The bread and crispy artichokes were the perfect start. For mains, the scallops and burger were nothing short of top tier – flavorful, perfectly cooked, and absolutely satisfying.

Dessert: We couldn’t resist diving into two options – the Key Lime Cheesecake and the Salted Caramel. Both were exceptional, and we’re already looking forward to trying more on our next visit.

In summary, Oliver’s delivered on every level – incredible drinks, standout dishes, and desserts that leave you wanting more. We can’t wait to return!“

“Amazing food here! Sticky bun with cream cheese frosting? And cheese curds fried on duck fat?!? Hell yes!“

“The night before our wedding, we brought our parents out for a nice, quiet dinner before the wedding festivities. I dropped a note in the reservation system about the special occasion and appreciated the recognition from the staff with a nice note, little sign, and a rose!

The food also never disappoints, we’ve tried steak, salmon, salad, sides… everything’s always been fantastic!!“

“Took my family to MAS-ICNA convention and stayed at Hampton Inn next door. Gave Krave a shot. Probably 1 of the best experiences I've had in all of Chicago. Courteous, caring, comfort, and everything good in between. It gave me comfort that owner was of same background as I was to so that's a cherry on top in itself.

Food was top tier. Portions are beyond generous. Staff extremely thoughtful. I can't speak enough praise about this place. They deserve their success and so much more. This is my go to spot when I come back down again

Thank you akhi and company. God bless“
