Erica L: Amazing meal. Get the baked goat cheese and tomato, steak frites, crab cake, elote corn, and short rib stroganoff
Megan Robertson: The corn is amazing! Surprisingly my fave item of the night. Crab cakes, beef stroganoff, and steak were excellent as well. Highly recommend.
Chicago Tribune: The beef stroganoff is terrific; the house-made pasta is richly eggy and arrives at the table al dente; the short-rib meat on top, glazed with sherry jus, is so tender thanks to a 10-hour braise.
Sara Spevack: We came on a Saturday and it was incredibly loud when he was playing all is instruments and the service was slow BUT the food is fantastic, the staff is delightful, and it was a fun time
Chicago magazine: When the urge for a few steins, a heaping platter of sausages, and crispy-skinned roast duck strikes, this Teutonic stalwart and its oompah band await. Read more.
Therese Kono: Simply the BEST! PROST!
V: Fast service, very delicious food, fav is tomato basil soup, cheese break, their pastas is amazing!
William Quiñones: Good food, fresh and tasty. Curries are savory and have a good selection of noodles with...everything you may like.

Nicole P: Best Italian food in Chicago. Homemade and made to order, you can't go wrong. Come with a full stomach, portions are huge and service is wonderul!
Kirb Torres: Some of my favorite Chicago deep dish pizza. Try the spinach and sausage thin crust or deep dish.
Matthew Eric: The $20 pizza was just a blob of cheese on toast w/ a splash of sauce that tasted like from a can. The entertainment was a man with an accordion who sounded drunk and on Percocet.

Stacy Bo Bacy: Classic American dining experience on one side, typical bar on the other. Blackened pork chops are the best, especially when they’re the daily special on Wednesday.
Rich Gardner: Great food and drink. Let’s be prime rib on weekends and fried chicken or grilled pork chops during the weekend. Tammy & Laura are awesome!!! Our favorite waitresses.
Jeri Harte: Sandy is the bestest waitress EVER! And sal ld tray is awesome! Green peppers are yummy

Stephanie Iza: Service is great! Staff is super friendly. I personally enjoy the Japanese Pan Noodles with either Tofu or Shrimp. :)
Charles Riffenburg: The fancy computerized soda machine is amazing!
Adam Dumas: I don't think this place is filthy. It's nice! Friendly service. Does take a while, tho, definitely NOT a "fast food" place, but it's not supposed to be!

French Restaurant · Bucktown · 9 tips and reviews
Julio Perez: Great place for a cooking class. BYOB and great chef instructors.
Lindsey Toth: Bring some wine for a good time!
Cecilia Bravo: Make sure you eat 'something' before taking class, you won't eat the meal you make until the end, around 3 1/2 hours later. And wear comfy shoes - long periods of standing. Croissant class was great!
