Raksha RavikumarFebruary 26, 2014If you're nice, they'll let you get all three seasonings (house, cajun and chimichurri) on your tots. You will be pleased with your decision to play nicely.
Angie OsmanskiNovember 24, 2015Delicious bar food, love the queso & nachos! Great place to watch Notre Dame games!
Best bloody Mary's ever!! My favorite spot to watch the patriots because they're so nice about putting them on a tv for me!!

Laurel WrightJuly 28, 2012Even though it's a Notre Dame bar it's still a pretty fun place! They have $5 Grey Goose specials on Wednesdays.

Heidi SuttonFebruary 28, 2012Great patio bar in the summer! Super fun trivia on Thursday nights too,.
Macaroni and cheese balls. And guac. And hummus. They have grrrrrreat hummus Read more- BBQ Chicken pizza is where it is at! Also, make sure you order a Whippet!
Great place, and a great staff. I live around the corner. Text me and maybe I'll come say hello!
Order the buffalo chicken wrap, it's the best thing on the menu.
Check out the "chalkboard" for always changing specials and new items.
Sundays: half off pizza and wings. Might as well order a drink or two while you wait..

Time Out ChicagoSeptember 14, 2010This minimalist bar, decked out in sleek red and gray tones, might seem pretentious. But don’t let the sophisticated look fool you. Read more
five buck buffalo chicken wrap is the best lunch deal in the neighborhood
Jon LevyMay 28, 2010Avoid the hummus and guacamole. Def hit up chicken fingers. Nina the server is the greatest.
Michael FogartyMarch 31, 2010Pre-order lunch at Citizen because the...staff...moves...very...slowly...

"Killer Negroni and Guacamole Cocktail! El Sótano is their signature cocktail for a reason. Be warned: the bar snacks include grasshoppers, but they’re good! Recommend the taco of the day and tacquitos"
