50 Best Bar & Grill near Oak Park

“Romantic environment, feel warm and cozy“

“Went here for the first time. I had the 1/2 lb Classic burger, medium rare, with Pepper Jack cheese and fries. My friend had the Al Pastor tacos. The burger was very well seasoned and cooked perfectly. Fries were wonderful. I normally can't eat a whole 1/2 lb burger. I couldn't stop eating this one. My friends Al Pastor tacos, on a flour tortilla, had a generous amount of meat, more than anywhere else we have been and it tastes fantastic, with just a hint of heat. Our Margaritas, made with Metzcal were delicious.“

“We needed a place to stay close to the Concord music hall, and found the Leavitt St. Inn and Tavern. Every element of our stay was thoroughly enjoyable. The menu at the inn was a purposefully short, curated list of bar food, and everything we tried was incredible. The tavern had a great neighborhood feel, and the room we stayed in was well-appointed, and just right for my wife and me. We met the owners within a few moments of arriving, and immediately felt welcomed. I highly recommend the Leavitt St. Inn and Tavern to anyone looking for a hidden gem of a place to stay while visiting Chicago. We can't wait until we travel north again, because we know where we are staying! 5 stars! A++++“

“Friendly staff, great place to be and the chips and salsa are so good!!!!“

“Had a great time visiting on 1.13.25 with my work team, loved the food 🍔 and beverages 🍺 and the atmosphere! Did NOT love that this was the ONLY place I had used a new business debit card and it got hacked. ☹️“

“We stopped in for brunch on the recommendation of our son, who said he’d heard good things about the Wolfhound. He was right! Great food and atmosphere and the owner is a great guy!“

“We went to the new location on Belmont this last weekend & are so thrilled with our experience. From the service to the drinks and the food, everything was delicious. I ordered the steak sandwich & thought it was fantastic (I like mine cheesy & saucy). My husband ordered the "Da Bears" burger & ate the whole thing. We started with the cheese curds that the table cleared within minutes. Our server was wonderful as well, she was attentive & we never had an empty glass. If you like trying all kinds of martini's, we really enjoyed the "pickletini". Cannot wait to go again & enjoy their patio & try a bloody mary :)“

“Such an amazing spot! A great addition to the neighborhood! The service is amazing, everyone who works here is so friendly, kind and attentive. The food is great (the santi spring rolls is a hit on the salty side however). This spot is not just great as a local spot, but also worth a trip. The outdoor patio area is so nice and has music and indoors, there’s a really charming atmosphere with a fireplace. Love it!“

“This is a really nice spot to hang out. It's quiet enough you can have a conversation and they have sports on the multiple TVs. When the weather is nice, they also have outdoor seating. The bar staff is friendly. They also have probably my favorite food in all of Avondale. I highly recommend the wings or the nachos, but everything I've had is very quality.“

“Best buffalo garlic chicken wings I’ve ever had hands down! Great atmosphere and great service!“

“cool little spot! would be my local hangout if we lived in Chicago“

“We went at Christmas time. They decorate the restaurant from the ceiling to the floor in lights. You can't help but get in the festive mood. We did make reservations and we came earlier and they still sat us. The staff was very friendly. I started with a cocktail called the Ramblers Rest. It was tasty. I could really taste the pomegranate notes. For appetizers we got the poutine. It is okay. For dinner I got the chef's wedge salad it was delicious. The homemade ranch dressing and the bacon bits totally made the salad. My hubby got their shepherd's pie. He said it was great. They have Coke products. They have a private area, and plenty of seating options. They have two fire places. I definitely want to go back during the summer. It looks like they have a large patio. Oh and they have a no stroller rule in the restaurant.

Kid-friendliness: No strollers allowed in the restaurant.“

“This restaurant is amazing! A very welcoming place to relax and meet others. I have been here a few times and had different dishes. The Chevaps are tasty, the chicken schnitzel is out of this world and the smash burger is by FAR the best burger I have ever tasted. Add an amazing drink from the bartender and there is no better place for a great meal.“

“A quaint Mediterranean family owned restaurant with the best food and Turkish coffee. We had cevaps (kabobs) in homemade bread and sopska salad made with fresh tomatoes and cucumbers that seemed fresh tasting even during winter season. The Turkish coffee was better than anywhere else that I tried in other ethnic restaurants. The owners were also very cordial and it was a pleasure to meet and speak with them about their journey. Definitely a place worth the to visit if in the area.“

“Great local spot. Good atmosphere and great staff 👍“

“Great food and drinks my favorite bar“

“great tacos! awesome beer listing. terrific ahi tuna bahn mi sandwich! wonderful owners and servers.“

“awesome place thank you Jackie and Gio“

“I attended a friend's birthday party in a private upstairs room, which featured a full bar and three beautifully decorated party spaces with ample seating. The front room had a pool table that was a hit throughout the evening. Our friend highly recommended the wings, and they definitely lived up to the hype! The bar staff was friendly and attentive, ensuring all guests were well taken care of. I highly recommend this venue and will definitely consider hosting a celebration here myself!“

“Tumans is a great spot, nestled in the heart of the Ukrainian Village, at all times of day. The food is fresh and delicious and the service is top notch. Personally, I do not think there is a food establishment that the servers and bartenders seem like great friends, both with each other and with patrons. The atmosphere is heartwarming!The whole crew- Joe, Sarah, Michelle , Mario, etc, never cease to really care about those they serve. Sarah is so efficient, prompt, and gets every detail down to a science. She is the epitome of a great server and her passion for making everyone feel special does not go unnoticed. Tumans is such a special place!“

“Great local find! The patio/beer garden is dog friendly with a fire pit, TVs and really nice comfortable seating, plus lawn games connect 4. There was a nicer wine selection than I was expecting for a local bar. The inside design was lovely.

New menu just started and fried chicken sandwich was so tasty!! Menu is small but everything we had was very good.

Can’t wait to go back!“

“This local gem is a fantastic spot for those seeking an authentic neighborhood bar experience! They offer an impressive selection of reasonably priced drinks and a diverse menu that's sure to satisfy. The spacious interior provides ample seating near the bar, while the additional backroom and charming patio (perfect for summer evenings) ensure there's always a comfortable spot to relax. For entertainment, there's a pool table available for those interested.

One of the standout features is the consistently excellent service - the staff really goes above and beyond to make you feel welcome. While I've primarily sampled their unique take on sweet potato fries, which come as hearty chunks rather than traditional fries, I'm excited to explore more of their menu. The daily specials are particularly intriguing, and I'm looking forward to my next visit to try them out!“

“Omg!! I can't say enough nice things!! I was working the Southport Art Fest this weekend as a Brand Ambassador and it's always hard to find great food, at a reasonable price, that's ready fast enough. They hit it outta the park!!! The burgers are fire and as big as your head!! The staff is super friendly and took great care of all of us!! Thank you guys SO much for your hospitality, fast service and awesome food!!!!“

“Sunday night; nice crowd. Food and drinks were good. Good Service too“

“I heard good things about the food but I couldn't try it because it's 35 and up. Wish they had a take out option or sum. Lowkey mad ASL cuz they kicked my ass out. My fat ass just wanted to eat. I give em stars cuz the security was polite.“

“Traveling from Louisiana, and my friend and I stopped here for lunch. Absolutely amazing service, everyone was so friendly and welcoming. The atmosphere was very quaint and niche. You can tell they have their regulars, but everyone was still so inviting. The food was PHENOMENAL. Also loved how clean everything was. I'd absolutely recommend this place to anyone. I'll absolutely come back if I make another trip out to Chicago.“

“Cocktails were good if pricey, great service, fun atmosphere“

“The food was amazing! We had the Monster burger and fries. Our waiter was amazing! Great job Ian!“

“We hosted our businesses Christmas dinner here and they easily accommodated 15 of us. The food was excellent, the holiday decor was incredible and the service was outstanding. If they weren’t 2 hours away this would be our regular date-night spot. 100% recommend!“

“Everything was great. Enjoyed my Brunch“

“What a pizza! this is the new spot. we ordered pizza and buffalo wings, both were delicious“

“Cool little place in the middle of a nieghborhood . Great food. My husband and I love to go there.“

“My band just played there. Great place for music food and drinks. Super friendly staff. 💯 recommended, add it to your list of watering holes 🍻“

“Excellent authentic food and service! We hosted a small party recently and I cannot express enough gratitude for the amazing service and food quality. We will definitely be returning!“

“Absolutely love this place! The design and atmosphere are stunning- stylish, cozy, and perfect for any occasion. The food is always delicious, with great attention to quality. And to top it all off, the service is consistently excellent- friendly, attentive, and professional. This has become one of our go-to spots, and we always leave happy. Highly recommend!“

“Mr. B and staff family are amazing and know the regulars. Food is GREAT quality and quantity worth the price. Through all the increases in life the prices stayed about the same. Joe's, is much needed in the community. Sometimes you have to wait because it's BUSY but, it worth the wait. You can call in and place your order. Remember to drop something in the tip jug, they work HARD from 7a-2p.

Parking: There is free street parking around the restaurant and across the street that doesn't belong to Joe's but people often park there.

Kid-friendliness: Kids are more than welcome and there regularly.

Wheelchair accessibility: There are tables where you can remove the chairs and eat with a wheelchair. They will definitely accommodate you.“

“The vibes were really great! The dj was awesome they played a great mix of music that night (Friday). Everybody was having a good time, people were dancing and enjoying themselves. I ordered the tenders dipped in a honey garlic sauce, the smoke burger, and key lime pie. Everything was good, the tenders were juicy and nice sizes, the meat on the burger was seasoned and had great flavor. The key lime pie though! It came with a cherry like reduction (sauce) with walnuts, I wasn't expecting it to taste that good. I ate the whole thing before I tried the food 🤷🏾‍♀️ I'll be back.“

“A dive bar? With Bourbon County on tap? Rabbits could be Moe's tavern right out of the Simpsons, but don't let that fool you. No Duff's here, but there is always a better than average and sometimes exceptional tap lineup for beer geeks. But don't let the secret out that you can get the full BCBS experience here in the fall without the crowd.“

“Great Place. Love the food and great service.“
