The chatter was loud, a good sign. It gets pretty packed here on Saturdays, so finding a seat can be tough. But if you snag one of the booths, you’re set for a while. Feels like home most times.

There is a “dive bar” vibe - which I like, and really unexpectedly good food! Sliders reminded me of the old PJ Clarkes, pizza was spot on with crunchy crust and not too sweet sauce and the salad was very fresh. The bar itself is fine-but if you are trying to decide between any one of a number of bars in the area, why not go to the one with awesome sliders.

My kids and I love this place, it’s my 4yr old’s favorite restaurant in Chicago. The staff are so welcoming, we love Zoe and Ashley! The pizza is scratch-made, all the sandwiches are delicious, and you can’t beat the price. Inside is clean, easy, and fuss free.

The food is absolutely wonderful. Everything is homemade. The blackened chicken wrap was delicious. Onion rings are fantastic. We visited on Saturday May 9th. The day bartender was very good. She made our experience enjoyable. We will definitely be back to try more of their food. Two thumbs up.
