As a Spanish tapas restaurant and lounge, "People" blends oak, wrought iron and copper elements to create a rustic and cozy atmosphere. Large wrought iron chandeliers hang from the ceiling. The faux painted walls with several shades of brown tones create a warm vibe. Long communal tables greet the
… customers at the front of the house.
People Lounge has been voted the best tapas in Chicago three years in a row.
Here you can always find the classic tapas such as Queso de Cabra, Patatas Bravas, Bacon Wrapped Dates and Flan. Be sure to try the skirtsteak with melted manchego, a People classic. Another must try on the seasonal winter menu is the pan roasted duck and wild rice served with brussel sprouts and cherry pomegranate gastrique. On a cold winter day, order it with a glass of blackberry sangria, sit by the fireplace and enjoy the lively atmosphere of this hip Wicker Park neighborhood favorite.Continued
