- JjulieannrChicago / Illinois •9 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoWe got there in time for a happy hour and so we got a few very reasonable delicious appetizers. And then we ordered some tapas off of the main menu. Everything was so delicious. Bartender was absolutely wonderful. And I had a flight of sangria, which was wonderful. Our experience was excellent.More infoCafé Ba-Ba-ReebaPrice: Moderate• Tapas / Small Plates• Lincoln Park•4.8
- JJacobChicago / Illinois •2 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoDaisies is truly one of the best restaurants in Chicago. I have been several times now for dinner, and each experience was wonderful. My wife went most recently for our anniversary, and the servers and staff made it extra special for us. The food is unique and delicious, and the drink selection is top-notch. There is a significant attention to detail on every level. Already can't want to go back.More infoDaisies ChicagoPrice: Expensive• American• Logan Square•4.7
- HHallehvipChicago / Illinois •11 reviews4.0Dined 5 days agoFood overall was good, although some items overpriced. Pumpkin hummus was exceptional. Pork tenderloin was good but needed a sauce. Service was slow at times but we would return. Half off bottles of wine on Mondays!More infoFarm Bar - RavenswoodPrice: Expensive• Farm-to-table• Lincoln Square•4.5
- GGeraldChicago / Illinois •5 reviews5.0Dined 5 days agoMy guests and I had a delightful lunch at Summer House Chicago. The food was delicious including the butternut squash soup, pizzas, salads, and the fish tacos. We loved every bite! I had requested a quiet table where we could all chat and be heard and our hostess obliged with a lovely booth where my friends and I were able to catch up after not seeing one another for quite some time. I highly recommend Summer House Chicago for a great place with a great atmosphere and great food.More infoSummer House - ChicagoPrice: Moderate• American• Lincoln Park•4.6
