    Drinks and an awesome garden patio. Great brunch and environment for trendy college football games.. Like, uh, Notre Dame?

    The inside of this Clybourn corridor wine bar features sofas and a fireplace, but on a warm day, the party is out back on the sprawling, tree-shaded patio. Read more

    Caters to a brunch crowd more concerned about bottomless mimosas than quality food. Also bros, getting ridiculous over mimosas makes you look like d-bags who can't hold their liquor. Not very manly.

    Went in for dinner on a Sunday to try something new- they took our id's from us at the door into the back for like 10 minutes and then came out and told us they were fakes?? We turned around and left.

    I walked in and had a panic attack. Then I got a table on the patio and felt a little bit better about this place.
