The beer selection was great. I had 3 different beers, all recommended by our server. The food was good, like pub food, but slightly better. You don't come here for the food, so you are not wowed by it, nor are you disappointed. It accompanies the beer well. And that's what you really come here for. We'll be back.

I was very surprised upon walking into the Cajun restaurant, as I expected it to have a Southern feel to it. Instead it was a bit darker with neon lights and heavy music playing. We were seated instantly and the service was prompt, only to be blown out of the water with the best wings I've ever had. They were perfectly fried and moist, a Ratatouille movie experience if you will when describing the taste. The Jambalaya was also delicious. It's a new restaurant to add to my Chicago recommendation list.
