Noelle N. • October 18, 2017Great addition to the neighborhood. We love the loaded baked potato gnocchi and green bean casserole for dinner! Brunch is great too! Yummy ricotta toast and burrito! Excellent cocktail menu.

Jon B. • April 8, 2023Ambiance was excellent, cocktails were tasty, and the burger. Damn that burger. One of the best in Chicago!

Alicia J. • March 27, 2015Everything here is good. Make the time to get appetizers/small plates and share with friends. The Monday burgers are small and tasty for a few bucks each.

Dan L. • June 3, 2017The pierogis are amazing! Loved the fried mushrooms as well.

Chicagoist • April 4, 2017Eggs come with house-made maple-glazed Spam, crispy potatoes and an ice-cold PBR. Pork belly Benedict, sunny-side duck hash and fried chicken and waffles are among the alternatives.

Rachel E. • March 28, 2019Very impressed. Our favorites were the branzino & the focaccia with ricotta-honey-truffle butter. I will definitely be back soon!

ISC C. • August 29, 2014Garden to table, amazing atmosphere, small but inventive menu, good drinks, very easy to stay for several hours just shooting the breeze (and it's real breeze!)

Adam B. • June 7, 2013Loved the quail egg ravioli and the pizza cotton candy! Witty commentary was appreciated too!

Carrie R. • August 25, 2017Exceptionally fresh, simple, flavor-focused food. The octopus salad + vegetarian options - spring spaetzle, lentil "brik" were excellent- plus a great wine and digestif list. They even had vin santo!

Kay T. • January 5, 2018Great small plates, especially the black garlic beef tongue, confit hen of the woods mushrooms with chestnut, pear cream, and one of the best desserts: sunflower seed semifreddo with fermented honey

Hanny • 5 days agoBlack tea tiramisu. Whipped ricotta. Japanese eggplant. Japanese sweet potato.

Phillip • March 5, 2015Try the poutine here but don't expect it to be Montreal style; The gravy is more a glaze and the cheese is melted from shreds rather than curds. Still tasty though. Pair with a blonde beer.

Guy S. • August 14, 2019I’m not a specialty cocktails type of guy, but these were pretty amazing. Works of art. The food was excellent. Not cheap, but worth it in my mind. Overall the experience is just that, an experience.

Chicago Tribune • August 1, 2014Desserts tend to be fun and quite sweet; I'm thinking specifically of the old-fashioned cake doughnut, with applejack caramel and spiced-cider sorbet.

Yangzhi Z. • June 19, 2011Being right next door to Alinea can be quite daunting, but Boka does not disappoint. Fantastic service, excellent tasting menu, and at a fraction of the price. Try the Alaskan Halibut.

Marie L. • May 28, 2023Visited for brunch. Lots of fresh and healthy options to start the day. Laidback atmosphere, good mix of families and friend groups. Snag a table on the patio.

Renaissance Hotels • October 16, 2012Platters of gleaming, fresh oysters, piles of juicy porchetta and a ribeye steak dry-aged for 60 days are extraordinary, and even better paired with beers from Publican’s world-class beer list.

Bianca • July 24, 2021The aged cheddar rillettes, the chicken waffles and the peach desert… are a must try. Really, all is great, one Michelin star and more.

Carly K. • October 21, 2017Great bar, great service, great food. Super friendly staff - especially at the bar. 👌🏼🍻

Alison • March 11, 2022Love their happy hour. Nice casual hangout

L K. • June 20, 2017Smithy whiskey cocktails. The Beef and Grits was out of this world. And the cobbler...delicious. Plus they have fried dough, and those two words together are magic.

Mary Kay H. • April 23, 2012The door to the bathroom is a bit problematic so be sure to latch.
