Loved the ambiance and the hospitality at this place during a hot summer Tuesday! My drink of choice was the Lyra which I highly recommend if you like something bubble with an extra twist I also had 4 items from the dinner menu which were amazing and to finish everything off I had the smothered pork chops. I defiantly recommend this place for the price and the location and the quality of the food.
A great dinning experience for my bf and I. Greeted by a very friendly and knowledgeable staff who took turns serving our table and gave a little background about each dish. Highly recommend the charcuterie as the cheeses are sourced from Pastoral and the meats made in house. Good portion sizes and we were treated to a free desert as it was our anniversary. I didn't even ask for anything special but they went above and beyond.
Made quick reservations for a 6pm dinner same day. The back patio is perfect. Quiet & tucked in a nice nook outback with heat lamps. The plates and food were excellent. The cheese and charcuterie plate made for a wonderful start. The strawberry salad was amazing. No pictures of the squash soup and beef cheek croquettes. The soup fell a little underneath the course while the beef croquettes were high performers. I did not anticipate such high-quality service and food. I look forward to a return!
Can’t wait to come back again. The atmosphere and decor inside made me feel like I was in the mountains. The food was fantastic and I especially liked the charcuterie board we started with. Our server made us laugh a lot and had great recommendations. It feels like a place you go to when you’ve been gone from home a long time and want that warm feeling. Too much? Yeah I’m there
Went here during Chicago Restaurant Week - absolutely magical. Welcomed to an intimate, candle-lit atmosphere, we sat by the back wall which was lined with large windows. Since it was the dead of winter it threatened to be quite chilly. We were delighted when our server brought us two thick blankets to keep on our laps during the meal! Cozy to the max.
We ate several courses, including:
- Smoked trout rillets & blumenkase
- Lamb sausage with brussel sprouts kraut, carmelized onion, & sun dried tomato dijon
- Duck proscuitto lyonnaise salad with house cured moulard breast, bitter greens house pickle, jammy egg, crème fraiche vinaigrette
- Pan-seared whitefish with beurre blanc, braised greens, caper, dill
- Braised pork shoulder with tomato, hakurei turnips, braised beans, fermented turnip greens
(and some wonderful potato latkes with horseradish aioli)
Charming spot for a date night 🕯️
Cute little place with some indoor and some outdoor seating, we went here on a Friday evening (with a reservation) and it was quite full. The food was good, we got the beef croquettes which were amazing, the salami chacuterie, the latkes and the carrots. We got the lemon pie for dessert. Everything tasted nice, we also got a bottle of steiger which grew on me with time! The servers were very nice and the ambience was good. My friend described it as an “elevated pub experience” and I think I agree!
Staff was very friendly. We had a table on the back patio and really enjoyed the ambience. I ordered the schnitzel and it was delicious. We also ordered the potato latkes with horseradish aioli. The latkes had a really good crisp to them and reheated well the next day. We wanted dessert too, but were so satisfied from our main course that we decided not to. Overall, great experience!
Super great spot. Fab natural wine list, great food options from small plates to larger shareable plates and a super interesting charcuterie and cheese list. The schnitzel and latkes are ace. You should visit soon.
Incredible tasting large plates complimented with unique drink options. Food was exceptional. Eclectic food options with moderate portions.
Delicious food the schnitzel was wonderful, beef cheek croquettes and latkes to start were delicious and the mushroom risotto was the best I've had in a very long time. Butternut squash soup with poached lobster made my eyes roll back in my head
Service and atmosphere was great, we sat at the bar and the bartender was friendly and helpful! Drinks were delicious, we had the old fashion and the daisy which both tasted fresh and we were left wanting more. We had the potato latkes and brie & pea toast as an app and the potato latkes definitely stole the show where the pea toast wasn’t on par. We both had the burgers which were very good but didn’t blow us away, you definitely need to be a huge fan of the pretzel bun. Would definitely come back and sit at the bar for a cocktail.
They’ve got great quality food and drinks.
Most recently, we got the burger and potato latkes (think of them like elevated tater tots). The burger was really good and was recently featured as one of the top 20 burgers in Chicago. It’s a really nice combination of flavors!
Their drink menu is pretty extensive and in the past, when I’ve gotten a cocktail, it’s been great!
It feels like a really cozy place - they have a small sidewalk patio, an indoor bar and some seating, and a back patio as well.
