    One of the best spots in Chicago - great service, good vibe and everything on the menu is consistently good. Fried chicken sandwich is one of my favorites in Chicago

    They have my favorite outdoor seating in Old Town. Food is good and it's a great place for casual nights. I like the deviled eggs, wings, and mac and cheese.

    I prefer outdoor seating coz the atmosphere is a bit 2 loud. I love the food, the Vig burger is very good and The spreads are delicious too (artichoke and kale, edamame hummus and pimento cheese)

    Chicken (esp. fried) is definitely their thing, but the Bao Bun chicken sandwich is truly special. Try the ham and cheese pretzel croissants as well. Service is extremely cheery; a nice, clean vibe.

    Cool spot with right-on food! Must try the fried chicken and Mac n Cheese! I aways judge a place by their Brussels sprouts and The Vig passes with flying colors. Can't wait to come back.

    Quite possibly the best Mac and Cheese I've ever eaten. The interior design is notable, the service is on point, excellent craft beer selection and the food is definitely worth the price.

    Located near Zanies comedy club, this is a fun restaurant for food and beverage. Try the Lobster deviled eggs as a starter. Wicked good.

    Great place to go for late nights with your friends. Good atmosphere. EDM crowd on Friday and Saturday nights, but during the day they have good food.

    This brunch was above average on the grading scale but do not opt for the cheap and chintzy lobster eggs Benedict. Read more

    Start off with the "Spreads"- I would even be satisfied with that for a whole meal! Great atmosphere

    Not impressed. Martinis served in Margarita glasses, no sugar on rim of a Lemon Drop. Would not split the brussel sprout salad for two. Will not return.

    Their sangria tastes like cold mulled wine. Not good.
