This is the second time I've gone to The Peasantry and I really don't know why I don't go more often! The food and service are impeccable, I cannot remember our waiter's name but he was such a lovely man and gave us an enjoyable experience. The brunch cocktails were delicious and the food was ever impressive. We had a group of 8 and everyone enjoyed themselves and their food.

We went on a Tuesday night, which isn't really fair. There were two tables filled when we sat down a little after 7, and maybe six when we left an hour later. So the place lacked energy. The food was very good. My salmon was juicy and sweet, my wife's pork chop a little chewy, maybe, but still good flavor. The prices were surprisingly low. The service was attentive in a slow-night kind of way. The no-flour chocolate cake for dessert was killer good; if there hadn't been witnesses, I would have order four or five more. I'd go there again, but a little later or on a weekend. I know that doesn't have much to do with the restaurant, and this kind of thing drives hard working restaurateurs a little nuts. But that's the experience we had.

This small restaurant is a gem in the Lincoln Park neighborhood. Food is fresh, interesting and tasty and the drinks are very good. I like their flank steak for dinner and for brunch there are many superb options with eggs. The best creme brulee in the City. Friendly and attentive service and cozy decor. This restaurant has become my favorite closeby place. I have eaten there with my family many times and now I am introducing it to my friends. Make a reservation for weekend brunch.

I have been on a quest to find excellent restaurants in the Lakeview neighborhood. I want to discover that neighborhood gem that boasts exceptional cuisine at reasonable prices -- someplace that I can become a regular at. I need look no further. The only thing better than the service is the food. I enjoyed a tasty shrimp succotash and wellington. Expertly cooked; wonderfully flavored. The cocktails offer a combination of both interesting and familiar. Unlike the food which is economically priced, a cocktail will cost you the going $12 restaurant average. The Manhattan is worth ordering. This time next week, I'll be back.

Food was decent but not great, would not recommend. Service was fine but a 20% tip is included regardless of how many people are in your party so the waitresses are more lax about checking in on you. Bloody Mary's are bomb though

We got the tuna tartar which was a board special and it was excellent. Also got the chickpea fritters, which were just ok. Got the burger with bone marrow, which was very good. Also got the arrancini - I didn't like it at all, but my bf did. The pinot noir from Willamette Valley was excellent. Very casual place - nice for a quick bit after the movies.

Fantastic food -- unique preparation and incredible flavors! The service was impeccable -- our server was very attentive and worked hard to accommodate us (I'm vegetarian and dairy-free). The atmosphere is casual and fun. I HIGHLY recommend! So happy we found this place.

This was a nice cozy dinner. The staff really took care of us with warm friendly service and good recommendations. They recommended the ceviche special and it was wonderful. I personally loved the brussel sprout salad it was my favorite part of the meal for me. My girlfriend really dug the pork tenderloin which was perfectly cooked. I loved the decor of this restaurant it was soft and warm and inviting. The beverage menu was really wonderful as well. Some intriguing cocktails that we didn't have a chance to try but they have some really nice beers and wines to offer. Overall I recommend this place for anyone in the neighborhood looking for a relaxed lovely meal.

I met a friend for Sunday brunch. He ordered an omelette with potatoes. He finished every bite and said it was very good. I had the pork belly Benedict. It was good, but I felt the potatoes were flat on flavor. Our waitress told us it was her second day. She seemed frazzled but she did a very good job. I thought it was strange that they included gratuity to a check for 2. It's fine, but I haven't had that happen before with a small party. I would like to try again and try something else on the menu. Fun atmosphere. Great location. Good service.
