We had an early weekday reservation (5:30) so we had the place almost to ourselves. The service was excellent and the food was amazing.

Best. Burger. In Chicago. Period. Bonus: We had one of the most congenial and knowledgeable servers. She understands that their burger is something very special and her description of the chef's process in developing the recipe had sold us immediately. This place is a bit tucked away and is an absolute gem.

We truly enjoyed the excellent food and experience and the European flair of a pub! The only disappointment was the extra chair for a tablespoon of additional dipping sauce.

Go with the egg and the pretzel to start. Can't go wrong with the steak or soft shell crab sandwich. Great place.

I was told their burger rivaled that of Au Cheval and though it was good, it didn't stand out. The fries were good.

Went for an early post theatre dinner. Their cocktails are finely crafted, nuanced and not at all sweet. They have quite the selection of bitters. One after the other our small plates came - some of them not so small - each unique and lovingly prepared from Scotch Egg to mussels. We loved it and plan to return soon.
