Nino Di CaraOctober 9, 2010I'm really not a nacho kind of guy, but the pulled pork nachos here are fantastic - fresh, tender, tasty, just what you need to go with their selection of beers
Emily WebberAugust 27, 2011Our server Daryl and the manager Kelly were both great!!! Good service, good food-loved the turkey burger and the baslamic dressing was delish!
Best wings in the city. Impossible to get a table during a game so plan accordingly.
Global HighlanderOctober 13, 2014An expansive draft beer selection and nice chicken wings. Very crowded and noisy on a Friday evening.
- The XXX is even hotter than before, but you can still taste the flavor. A winner!
Blake SuharJuly 27, 2018They rave about having the "best wings in Chicago", but they were only good, not great. Came with way too much sauce. It was cool that they allowed you to mix and match styles though.
Carla HamNovember 7, 2013Nachos: Cheddar cheese, green onions, sour cream, jalapenos, guacamole, salsa & chili (diningin.com)
TCFebruary 25, 2012Omg fried pickles are so gooooooood.... u don't know what ur missing till you try them.
Daily beer specials. Krankshaft is great. And mac daddy cheese specials to die for. If it's your birthday, they'll bring free dessert!
Alex MatherApril 13, 2013The poncho garlic & cayenne are seriously one of the most epic wings I have EVER had anywhere!
Stacy MastersonMay 13, 2013The coleslaw is fantastic! Pulled pork sliders trio were surprisingly super tasty.- Four words: late night happy hour. Can't beat the $5 nachos and flatbreads.
Bob HeubelJanuary 16, 2014Ask to substitute pulled pork for the Bbq chicken on their pizza. Frickin amazing.
Francis AnnOctober 11, 2011The October mac daddy mac n' cheese : "buffalo mac" is beyond delicious!! Highly recommend it if your looking for a little bit of spicy!
Erick PessoaJuly 23, 2011Be aware, The hot wings are REALLY, REALLY hot. Go for it only if to enjoy the challenge. This comes from someone who eats jalapeños for breakfast. (not me!)
Allie Simon SchreiberMarch 10, 2014$5 XXX BLOODY ON SUNDAYS! Quite possibly my favorite in the city!

Amanda HollandFebruary 14, 2012Pan roasted tilapia is amazing - Cajun spice, smoked tomato sauce w/sweet potato mash
