Try the ricotta and honeycomb from our 100 Best list: This ricotta is richer and smoother than we could have imagined (it’s whipped with olive oil), paired with sweet honeycomb and grilled bread.
DiSotto is a wonderful wine bar that opens daily at 5pm. It's a late night spot for late night people. Great wine, great staff, what else could a person want?
Old World wine list and Mediterranean small plates: Scott Harris has nailed the formula at Purple Pig and Davanti Enoteca, so why mess with a good thing? Read more.
Good food prepared in a totally open kitchen with bar seating and fast, friendly service.
Food is so, so good here. Especially enjoyed the meatballs. You can get reservations online through OpenTable.
High brow, low brow spin on food and drinks. Late night DJs; young, hip crowd.
The Disco Waffle Fries and The Diplomat were both excellent, and perfectly shareable.
Diplomat, great for sharing!
Get the fried calamari, frutti de mare and of course the tiramisu!!!!
The toughest part of Mom's brunch here will be choosing between the smoked salmon omelette, the eggs Benedict and the fried eggs with spicy pesto.
Great food but don't be on a timeline. Took over 2 hours for two of us to eat on a wednesday and we ended up skipping dessert cause we ran out of time.
The best white fish I've had in the city. Massimo - the owner - is amazing and so charming.
Seriously save room for dessert.
Absolutely fabulous meal!
Highlights include the brioche French toast and the Eight Bar hash, a seafood lover’s brunch dream! Read more.
Fried Chicken was crunchy and juicy
Escargot (rich and buttery)
Castello di Santa Vittoria Rosa Vittoria ($13). "Intense bouquet of violets, roses, and jasmine supported by a great depth and structure on the palate," says owner and wine director Aldo Zaninotto. Read more.
The panna cotta is fantastic!
I love this place. Great wine offerings, excellent service, atmosphere is spot on and the food-one word: WOW. Definitely a restaurant to visit often in a great neighborhood.
Top Chicago craft brewery. Best barrel program in Illinois.
High-quality toilet paper in the ladies' room. Very impressed.
Kedzie Ave. brewery is open to the public Wednesdays through Saturdays, from 2-10pm. It offers complimentary guided tours every Wednesday through Saturday at 6pm.
Highly recommend both the tortellini and gnocchi (with bolognese sauce). Make sure to get the handmade pasta. For app - goat cheese. Enjoy!
Jalepeno gnocchi is the best. Try it.
Jalapeño gnocchi is the bomb. Also try the portabella mushroom with Gorgonzola.
Best Italian in Chicago! Get the Prosciutto app, and any dish with the bolognese sauce. Dessert: Torta Lava a must.
Great Calamari!!!
If you're looking for good food, you found it.. If you're looking for good food and quiet atmosphere... I'd suggest keep looking. It's like fine dinning at a concert.

Try the Mussels Sambal
Sure you can default to mussels, but put yourself out there to try zaansemosterdsoep. [Eater 38 Member]
If it’s your first time, definitely try the Longanisa; if you’re coming back for seconds, branch out to the Tocino. (Enjoy the Lugaw, and make sure to choose their garlic fried rice, not hash-browns!)
Try the Filipino breakfast!
Uncle Mike and the hospitality here is great! Longanisa and Tocino are my favorite!
Maple & Ash is a seriously swanky spot in the Gold Coast with an all-star staff excellent people-watching, and standout wine and cocktails. Read more.
Filet mignon was to die for. Save room for dessert and get the sundae tower😍 literally the best
If you don't like their onion rings you're an inhuman monster and you deserve only the worst that life has to offer. These spicy beauties are the donuts of the vegetable kingdom.
First time? Go for French toast!
Scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, French toast. Everything was done to perfection in the 2x2x2x2 meal. No kidding. Great location for business at Ogilvie. Bright ambience.
Excellent service, excellent food and excellent coffee. Can't go wrong with that.
Lovingly made in NYC, CHI, SEA & LA
