Heather DApril 6, 2013Had a great meal here. You'll find an original menu with decent portions. We had the duck wings and pickled lambs tongue flat bread. Both were tasty. The craft cocktails were amazing too.
The kale-pesto pasta dish is to die for. Paired with the whiskey cocktail with pineapple juice it is out of this world! Hope these two menu items make the permanent menu!!
Allison KaminskiFebruary 21, 2015Great cocktails and large beer selection. Menu has changed quite some bit from elevated street food to more comfort food. Still the same awesome vibe!
JenGaJuly 18, 2012Start the day with gourmet street food made by chef at Franks‘n’Dawgs. Among the unconventional brunch offerings: Corn pancake gyro topped w/ fried chocolate chili chicken, apple slaw & maple yogurt
Molly FMarch 6, 2016Really good specials, amazing burger (best my dad has ever had), good drink menu, all over a place I'll definitely be back to. Amazing
CaitlinMarch 6, 2016amazing creative delicious food that is super approachable. we had meatloaf wellington, cauliflower gnocchi and burger. all beyond amazing.
Time Out ChicagoAugust 2, 2014The Medieval field workers whom this restaurant’s name evokes would not have been able to place it, but the scent in the air at the Peasantry is most certainly that of truffle oil. Read more
Paul ThenstedtApril 6, 2013Had two great lunch visits. Brussel sprout salad, lamb gyro, Cajun pork burger, bone marrow burger, pork belly skewer are all home runs.
Beet flatbread, then muscle bowl with watermelon salad. Amaze. Can't believe my 'hood finally has such a great go-to! Excellent food/people @ The Peasantry.
John WallerNovember 18, 2012Pork Belly Gyro is money. There is a healthy amount of meat and the bread is succulent. Also liked the smoked oyster appetizer (seasonal)
Rob HayashidaNovember 4, 2012Get the Shrimp and Lobster Roll on their Brunch menu. It's amazing. Skip the French Toast. Soggy and not good!
Matthew GarchikMarch 31, 2016All great exotic foods with an always changing menu. For they have a duck dish get it
Carolyn BaumgartenJuly 13, 2013The octopus hash is phenomenal. You have to love octopus but with the bacon and potatoes, it was delicious.
Arash AnsariJune 11, 2015Creative menu, great owner and friendly staff. Definitely one of a kind, not to be missed.
Ted XenohristosSeptember 1, 2012Red wine braised rabbit with tagliatelle mushrooms shaved ricotta salata and thyme.
Anne KlingebergerJanuary 5, 2013House chips are more refreshing than chips have any right to be. And do yourself a favor and get the bone marrow burger rare.
CzapFebruary 17, 2013Third time here. While the menu has expanded and upgraded, a plus the place was busy and chaotic. They don't take reservations and people where blocking the door. I hope to go on a better night.
Eric ChristopherNovember 1, 2014The short rib and pork chop are both incredible. The truffle fries are mandatory.
Tasting TableMay 18, 2012Fried food fans must get the duck wings. They come with buttermilk dressing and fiercely sour cherry mostarda for double-dipping: Read more
Meredith BayMay 23, 2012Menu seems to change frequently but get the beet flat bread if you can, and try the triple truffle fries if you dare!
Mussels and Triple Truffle Fries! Beer choices on draft are excellent.
Casey HApril 25, 2013Great Bloody Mary and some kick ass short rib hash! The staff is quite friendly as well.
Michael LillyNovember 17, 2012You could probably pass on the duck burger. The truffle fries were good though, it's tough to mess those up. The Dragon's Milk is always a great choice.
Jason GilmoreJuly 1, 2012EAT the baby octopus gyro, Brussels sprouts salad, and the cauliflower flatbread
Jeff ShaferJune 22, 2014Coffee is so good adding sugar and cream ruins it! But, there are no free refills :-(
TonyMay 25, 2014Food looks good but watch out for the hairs ... the kitchen won't believe you because they're all apparently bald
Bethany SoloskiJuly 4, 2013The food was super bland :( Everyone at the table was disappointed. Cool decor though!- Meredith BayJuly 20, 2013Avoid! Leave right now. Mediocre service and ok food + supremely over priced. So sad because it is right near my house :(
