• Pork loin exceeded all expectations. Walleye was light and incredible. Order drinks off of the cocktail menu, they will not disappoint. Braised rabbit app was amazing.

• Not gonna lie...We were skeptical of fine dining in Pilsen, but they proved us wrong. Great service and decor in addition to a delicious seasonal menu & the cocktails rivaled some of my favorite bars.

• Fantastic brunch spot! Couldn't resist the burger after seeing one go past our table. Great coffee as well!

• A foodie must stop on the west side in the Pilsen neighborhood. An organic restaurant. Anything with chicken and/or pasta is recommended. Menu is hand-written, changes daily. Freshest of ingredients.

• The goat quesadilla is so flavorful. Got it with the egg scrambled and on the side though.

• Don't bother coming here from inside the city because they will not help you get a ride back into the city. Poor, poor customer service on that front.

• Lamb chop was tough and I had to work to find the actual meat. The spaghetti was so small with tiny veal meatballs that I actually thought it was an appetizer. Way over rated...

• The albacore tuna is served on an EXCELLENT salad. And the tomato spread that comes with the bread is heavenly!

• Irresistible starters include buttermilk-fried sweetbreads, handmade pastas, and wood-grilled sardines. Chef Jason Vincent also makes an honest cheeseburger and an amazing roast squab.

• Nightwood is offering a four-course dinner for $44 per person, with highlights like the Michigan char roe inspired by the Arzak egg and Nate’s family chicken, a sweet and sour chicken concoction.

• Fans of smoked fish cannot hope for more in life than the bagel sandwich, in which Rushing Waters smoked trout cream cheese is smeared on a bagel and topped with bacon and an over-easy egg.

• Bacon butterscotch donuts.... mmmmmm

  by Di L.

  
  

• For a chicer option, try Nightwood before the dinner rush. The friendly, accommodating staff has always treated families with respect, no matter how fussy the seating.

• The menu's sweet side hits all the right notes, and Sunday brunch--featuring fried-chicken-and-waffles and bacon-butterscotch doughnuts--gave it the cultish status accorded its Logan Square sibling.

• The sweet side of the menu hits all the right notes (think light and simple blueberry cake), as do the impressive cocktail and wine programs.

• Jason Hammel and Jason Vincent give us another reason to travel to Pilsen: their impeccably prepared rustic seasonal fare and a cool, modern Kevin Heisner-designed room to eat in. [Eater 38 Member]
