“Jacob was an amazing server. We loved the food (Thai shrimp and charcuterie) and drinks (Autumnal Shift and Karma Chameleon) We will definitely return for another Karma Chameleon.“

“This place is the coolest bar I have been to in a long time, hip and fun but not pretentious. They paid attention to every detail when building and designing. The white marbel bar has clean lines and looks fresh. All of the hardware finishes look sharp and clean. The patio is large and inviting with a fire place and plenty of tables to sit at. The drink menu is creative and refreshing and the staff is kind and welcoming. I cannot say enough good things about this gem of a bar. I am excited to hang out this fall on the patio by the fireplace with good drink in My hand.“

“Leann created the perfect menu for us, with a lemon theme throughout. Our favorites were the poke tacos and the chicken piccata. We even took cheesecake to go. I couldn't resist Instagraming most of our meal. Even the daiquiri was classic. Sad to see it go!“

“I asked a local friend for a reco for a bougie, but laid back dark and moody cocktail bar with lounge vibes. This hit the mark! Awesome cocktails. Try the Voodoo absinthe one. Bartender Ashley was fantastic and made me an off menu chartreuse cocktail after telling her I loved chartreuse. Met some friendly locals as well. Will def be back. Thanks for a great last night in Chicago. ???“

“I have never eaten food like this before! It is so good and I am leaving beyond satisfied!“

“It’s the best. Great Bartenders and excellent cocktails“

“Ordered the “Every time it Rains” drink. The name is catchy and I can relate. The drink was definitely strong, it reminded me of strong coffee. I asked the bartender and he said it was the Haitian rum that gave it that taste. The overall setup is cool and lowkey. Reservations are strongly suggested because it’s a small spot. This place is cool to go on a date, or to catch up with friends. I would give this place another chance, and just try another drink.“

“Adoro l'arredamento vintage. I tarocchi sono divertenti.“

“Great food and interesting menu to say the least. 10/10 would eat and drink again!“

“Absolutely LOVED loved loved The Meadowlark. We came for cocktails with friends on Wednesday night before our 7pm dinner reservation. Upon check in, the hostess escorted us to four seats at the corner of the bar. The bar itself is the most cozy and feels like being at a friend’s house if that friend had a bar in their living room. The bartender was incredibly personable as well as being knowledgeable about the various cocktails on the menu. Before a round of classic cocktails we had to try some of their specialties. The pool party, field trip and pizza party were all remarkably good and interesting without being cloying or sweet. If I lived in Chicago, I would be frequenting this bar on the regular.“

“We had a fair experience at Lilac Tiger. Went in on a Friday night and were seated fairly quickly. My cocktail was great. My friend's, not so much. We ordered the vada pav and the chettinad paneer curry. My friend also got mussels. Everything was alright. Very few vegetarian options and the ones we ordered were okay. Service was a little spotty. The hostess who greeted and seated us was very professional and was amazing.
We weren't super impressed but the place is worth checking out and we will definitely want to give it another try.“

“Eva was our server. She was amazing! She was extra attentive and accommodating. She knew what we would ask for before we opened our mouths.

I ordered the French Dip with Truffle Fries, and they were delicious. I will be back, and I definitely recommend it.“

“Great vibe, great staff, well made and designed cocktails 🍸“

“my best friend and I just had the BEST experience at the whale! Our waitress taylor was incredible and the manager (so sorry but we never got his name because he was just being so nice to us) was incredible as well. We will definitely return with friends and recommend anyone to try it out! classy, but not snobby, cool decor, warm kind and accommodating staff, and great food and cocktails are just the cherry on top! try the carrot cake after your meal :) Thank you again to taylor and the manager again <3“

“Impeccable service. Friendly staff. Delicious gin“

“I love this place so much. Everything about it is just perfect.“

“Kind hearted people are quite rare to find as cooperate people or as individuals also. I'm sharing a 4 years friendship and business relationship i've shared with Mr Ralph Carico for being such an awesome, kind and specially oriented. Thank you for being supportive each time i buy and invest in digital stocks and coins with your firm.“

“We happened upon this restaurant during a visit from New England. It was the best meal we had in Chicago. The restaurant is fabulous! We had delicious soup with incredible warm rolls, salad and 4 different amazing entrees. The restaurant has great windows to enjoy natural light and is quiet enough to have a conversation. All this with white tablecloths and a reasonable price.“

“Sexy as hell, amazing staff, music acts are A+, delicious drinks and an overall great time!!!“

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

“Like a flash back to the 70’s, before I could hold a cocktail but fancied doing so.....“

“Came for brunch with the family. My family came before without me so I wasnt sure what to expect.

Came in and were greeted by the manager. The plates are small but suprisingly good flavor. We all shared and walked away full after trying several dishes. Our waitress (I believe her name was Pearl) was very attentive and courteous. My favorite items were the garlic beef noodles and the short rib potato hash. We NEED to come back and try their dinner menu“

“Great variety and unique flavors. Great vibe.“

“Great happy hour daily 5-6pm The burgers are so good !! Always fun“

“On the evening of July 5 my wife and I tried Avaspi on Belmont Avenue in Lakeview for the first time. It will not be the last! I love lamb and am quite particular as to how is it prepared. The “lamb delight” menu item was the best lamb I have ever had in a restaurant: tender, succulent, and prepared to perfection. The side salad accompanying it was not your ordinary side salad! My wife and I both enjoyed the Mixed Meze appetizer plate. Each of the five items was quite good but the muhammara was to die for. We ended our meal with tea, baklava and kubralice. The décor and ambience were refreshing and relaxing, and the service was outstanding. The pricing was very reasonable. Please give it a try. We do not think you will be disappointed.“

“We stopped in Alma in the evening for a few rounds of drinks after dinner. We've been here a few times before and always seem to like it. The drinks and wine options are pretty good. There's a ton of space which we like too. The service was lackluster though. We sat for awhile before our server came by; he eventually came over and took our drink order but wasn't that friendly. We had to flag him down for our other rounds. The ambience of the space itself is pretty good, but the music was just a little too loud for a hotel bar. We'll go back again, but there is room for improvements.“

“Was brought here with a local friend. Hung out in the back. Outside, under the stars and playing on the drums. Definitely a place high on my return list.“

“10/10 experience with Eddie! Had a birthday event for some friends and he was super helpful and accommodating! Definitely would recommend this place! Can’t wait to come back!“

“Great Drinks and Amazing Atmosphere. Our go to spot!“

“Very nice and friendly bartenders. They are very good at making any kind of drinks.“

“I love this place! We were there on 5/29/22 and Wes was wonderful as well as the drinks!“

“Enjoyed the Christmas pop-up, very festive and the food is fantastic!“

“Love the low key environment and drinks was 🔥🔥“

“This family operated eatery was a great place to meet friends for quiet conservation. It would be a great date place as well. They will customize your order on request (one of our gang was. It about cilantro 🙄), a fresh mint herbal tea, and lechon (pork) with rice and plantains was mixed and matched for us. My arroz con pollo was delivered late as a chicken paella but very tasty nonetheless. They did not charge due to late arrival. The only weak spot was the Cuban sandwich - just not enough meat. So very friendly and informal…and almost a five star. We will be back!“

“Food are great And good drinks too“

“excellent food - we both the spring rolls and the egg rolls. the crab fried rice and vegetable salad with rice noodles were also really tasty.“

“We recently hosted a cocktail class for a bachelorette party at this venue, and it was an absolute blast! Kayla, our mixologist for the evening, was incredibly engaging and thorough, making the entire experience enjoyable.Diana, the Events Manager, went above and beyond by reaching out to inquire about the bride's wedding colors. This thoughtful touch allowed them to create a welcome drink that perfectly matched the event. The entire process was seamless, and we were genuinely impressed by the attentiveness of the entire staff.I highly recommend this venue for hosting events such as birthdays, bachelorettes, or any special occasion!“

“The food was fresh, authentic and good! 😋🤤👏 My chews were in rhythmic to the music as my mind thoughts were transported to this beautiful island we call Boriquen. 🏝️😌✨ I'd like to see more of us employed in this establishment. That would have made it just right. 💯🙌🇵🇷 #PuertoRico“

“This is my MOST FAVORITE bbq place in the whole USA. Been to many places but they food is absolutely delicious. Their staff is very very nice too, when I told them I was from Seattle, they treated me even more special. It’s Restaurant is a 10/10 💕🥰“

“White Sox Bar!!!!!!!!😂!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! N n n n n n“

“I awoke this morning, filled with regret and resentment. I nearly stayed under my supple, cozy sheets. Yet, I prevailed. I stumbled upon this Elegant establishment. I needed something greasy and practical for a hangover. I also needed to watch the Minnesota gophers beat up Rutgers (do they even have a mascot)? I ordered the double smash burger, and went to work. The service was quick, very quick, which made me believe the burger would be subpar. My first bite awoke me. I was so back. Every following taste left me with childlike joy, much like a young Jack Slunecka frolicking through the South Dakota prairies. I can not recommend this establishment more. Thank you Parlay, not only for giving me strength. But, giving me the motivation to carry on, and make the world a better place. I Love you so so much.“

“The food and staff were amazing! Such a friendly staff who were extremely welcoming and attentive. I have never ordered ‘seconds’ at a restaurant until today! The tostadas were out of this world and the shrimp taco was delicious. A must try!“

“We understand why it’s named Gretel… if you’re wondering where Hansel is, he starved to death waiting for his burger. To be fair, it’s one of the best burgers you can get in Chicago BUT you should not come here if you have any other plans that evening. It took 30 minutes longer to be seated than they initially told us (over an hour and a half total). Once we were seated, pretty sure the waiter forgot about us at our table, but it didn’t really matter because the vibes were high 👌🏼 The drinks were great, but consider bringing your own because you’ll grow a five o’clock shadow waiting for your next round. The host, Jonah, was the shining star of the evening and was truly hilarious. But our waitress kept trying to argue that “well” and “well done” were different levels of doneness, so that was annoying (and slightly concerning). Overall, the food was phenomenal, but it was a very slow experience - the antithesis of “fast” food.“

“I really enjoy the atmosphere, the bartenders are really really nice... It's like a neighborhood "Cheers", once you come in and meet the people you become family

Parking: There's a parking lot next to 9705 and street parking as well“

“Hip and lively. The host/wait staff are super kind and funny; the downside is the volume of customer is likely what leads to slow service, which is important to some folks. Food tastes great. I ordered the Guatemalan breakfast, which I thought could have come with larger portions of the beans and plantains given the cost. My wife ordered the brisket bowl special and that came with an appropriate, healthy amount of food for the price. The winning order is the beef cheek empanadas with bone marrow. It’s like a beef patty but fattier and way more rich flavor. That’s a 10/10 given it’s only $5. We will certainly come back for the happy hour special (empanadas $3.50 + $8 margs).“

“The place is the best for chill vibes. We come here on Fridays and Saturdays when we want to have great cocktails and talk to each other.Aaron and the rest of the team are great. If you like Gin, Whiskey, or Vodka come here as soon as possible!“

“I’ve been to Brasero twice now - delicious and such a blast both times! A fantastic wine list and the food is to die for.

The noodles, prawns, branzino, endive salad, cheese bread, ceviche and more were delicious. I can’t wait to go back again.

You have to get the prawns and ask for sourdough to dip in the extra sauce. Sooo good!! I wish they did delivery - I would order delivery for it since it was so yummy.“

“This place is a must visit. My wife and I have been here twice and they don’t miss! Love the Chicago spin they put on a lot of their dishes. Each dish is well balanced and so flavorful and their cocktails are tasty too! Every team member we have interacted with is always knowledgeable and welcoming. There is no doubt this place will continue to get more popular and is easily one of my favorite restaurants in the city. Can’t wait to go back“
