Tim EatonSeptember 16, 2013Wow-- great eve with my wife to celebrate our 16th anniversary! Ham Frites were a little salty, but so yummy!
emily tritabaughApril 8, 2013Trust the servers. They know their stuff. Ask for the barrel-aged cocktail list. Get the scallops.
Natalie RossFebruary 3, 2014The Miso Butterscotch Budino was unreal. Definitely worth saving room for.
Andrea JacksonJanuary 22, 2013The menu changes often so if they're still around the cauliflower and green beans are a MUST!!
Dawn BonaseraJuly 17, 2013Amazing food , tapas style, good price but small portions. You have to order a lot of food.
Jordan YoungJuly 15, 2014Goat empanadas, the pig face, and the miso-butterscotch dessert are a must!
Jennifer StraubDecember 22, 2011Face your fears and order something daring. I highly recommend the pig face! Their dishes can be somewhat salty, so be sure to stay hydrated with water.
GenoFebruary 18, 2014You can BYOB for a $25 corkage fee, max two bottles of wine. Most wines on the menu are $50 and up.
Scott KleinbergDecember 17, 2015It's no wonder why reservations are so scarce. If you can get one -- even if it's 4:30 -- grab it.
Vickie WagenaarJanuary 17, 2011V: chickpea fritters and squash ravioli were outstanding - S: scallops, mmm - M: ham frites (fried in duck fat with beer and cheese dipping sauce)

Ali WattsMay 21, 2013amazing green beans & shishito peppers. Papardelle had a little too much meat vs. pasta ratio but was really good. Goat empanadas were ok. Bread with cheese was overrated :(
Anna de JesusSeptember 13, 2014Miso butterscotch boudin is out of this world. Nothing like it. Must have!
Jeff FrancisAugust 21, 2011Go with at least four people, order a couple of things each and show. Everything is unbelievable. Don't get scared off by unusual cuts and such.
Brooke ErinApril 23, 2011Brennan is dreamy. The Sugo is awesome. Sorbet is maybe best dessert Ever. Try the green beans. Pass on the ham frites. We'll be back.
Martin GonzalezAugust 22, 2013People, the broccoli people, the broccoli! Everything would be good as heaven!
Christina C.December 29, 2012Stand by bar/lounge to stalk customers to get a seat without reservations. It's every man for themselves. Fries, pig cheeks, scallop & shishito peppers are good but on the salty side. Goat was ok.
The FeastJune 9, 2011The paint hadn't even dried on the walls before former 'Top Chef' winner Stephanie Izard received unanimously positive opinion from across the board. Our insider secret? Three words: fried pig face.
MichaelJuly 19, 2013Try the Sunny side up egg over Wood Oven Roasted Pig face... Idk what part of the face that was, but it was DRLICIOUS.
Mabinty KoromaOctober 8, 2012The food is AMAZING! A must!! I had the Kalbi ribs and the chickpea fritters!!
The roastedbeets salad is a must also go for the milk chocolate and glangal napoleon
BariAugust 2, 2013Kohlrabi salad, scallops, tempura soft shell crap and shrimp cheviche are must haves!
James RiceJune 6, 2013The green beans in a fish sauce vinaigrette are absolutely delicious- not to be missed
Lizzy H.February 19, 2014Unbelievable food and service. Perfection!!! Ask for Gary as a server -- he's the best.
Marco HowellSeptember 28, 2011Get the chickpea fritters, pigface, fries, cauliflower, escargot ravioli, and all the desserts. Trust me.
Open Air PublishingApril 24, 2012Try Chef Stephanie Izard's bacon creme brulee. The recipe is featured in "The Better Bacon Book" for iPads. http://oapub.co/9a4d0f5d
Ryan ArndtFebruary 26, 2013Get the bittersweet chocolate cake with shiitake caramel gelato. Thank me later.
Chicago magazineAugust 16, 2011Dining critic @dropkickjeffy says the soft-shell crab over an elote-inspired mix of lime-spritzed sweet corn kernels in a chili aïoli is a small-plate stunner.
Ege ElgunMarch 26, 2022Excellent wine list, food is pricey and portions are tiny. Not sure why it is so popular.
Michelle LinNovember 30, 2014Cauliflower, broccoli, bittersweet chocolate cake, lamb, duck tongue, Shisito peppers, pig face
Willy ArbuckleJune 23, 2013Tried about eight or nine dishes. Baby octopus stood out as the best. Give it a try.
Angus RobertsonFebruary 11, 2014Full menu available at the bar and in the lounge area without a reservation.
Bryan FlemingJuly 4, 2012Amazing... Got 6 plates and everyone was simply amazing! Did I mention this place is amazing!
Ekaterina RSeptember 11, 2013Food was inventive and tasty but the place does tend to take itself a tad too seriously. I got bored and left before getting desert. Spoiler alert - apple pie at next door Haymarket is to-die-for.
