- GGeo1Chicago / Illinois •4 reviews5.0Dined on Oct 28, 2023They had a nice menu, a good variety, and the food was really good. My vegetarian friend got the half sandwich and soup and was even exceptionally happy with it. We just all enjoyed it. They have some specialty cocktails, too, really just a few extra-special things plus items for the less adventurous in the group. For ambience, it's more sports bar than anything else, but that's what we were looking for. I will advise anyone who wants quiet that this isn't the right spot. We were only just able to converse with each other. But, again, that's what we were looking for and thought the place was just perfect for our needs. We loved that it was decorated for Halloween, too. It was just kind of a fun place.More infoLG's Bar & KitchenPrice: Moderate• American• Old Town•4.4
