Came here for my friend's baby shower, as it's their favorite place…read more When I posted a photo of the exterior on my instagram story, 4 people who have all moved away from Chicago replied to it saying they miss this place. So, that's a pretty solid endorsement. I hadn't been here (or even heard of it, but I'm rarely in this part of the city). We were in the back room and it was a great little space for the event. The food was great (served buffet style, but from their regular menu. The avocado toast, fresh fruit, and potatoes were all extremely good). The servers were also super nice and attentive. It was easy to get to (about a 10 min walk from the Sheridan stop. Parking looks manageable when it's not a Cubs game day, which is why i took the train.)

I've been here twice and both times were mediocre. Prices are high for the amount of food that you…read moreget. For the positives, they have a good menu and the atmosphere inside is nice. Both times the service has been satisfactory but nothing particularly stood out on either visit. Uncommon Ground is walking distance to Wrigley Field which makes it convenient to grab lunch or dinner before the game. My boyfriend and I met up with some Chicago friends before the game on this last visit. I tried the fish and chips and the boyfriend had the mac and cheese with chorizo. Both were underwhelming. The fish was mostly batter and three small pieces of fish. Flavor was good and fries were hot and crispy but for $21 it felt like tastier fish sticks. The mac and cheese with chorizo was again good but portion was small for $25. My Chicago friends had the grilled chicken sandwich and it looked big. Maybe it depends on what you order but I doubt I'll give it a third try.

It was busy but we were still served at the bar quickly. The bartender was helpful, lots of tvs around the stadium and lots of foot traffic outside. It was around the holiday season and they had an ice rink outside which was fun to watch. I'd come back and grab some food next time!

There are plenty of TVs, multiple are very large so there doesn't seem to be a bad seat in the whole area. We just stopped and got drinks, but it was nice to use the QR code for a menu and even being able to pay. It's also helpful because you can easily split the check amongst multiple people using the QR at the table too. We were not here on a game day, but it was during a few March Madness games, so it was VERY VERY loud, so be prepared to shout to the people at your table.

It wasn't nearly as busy as I'd thought for right before the concert, but still had plenty of people. Bartender was super attentive and friendly, constantly checking in, chatting with us, and getting us what we needed. I should mention that the seating situation was odd-- we had a party of 2 and the options we were offered were stand at the bar or go upstairs (outside, and it was nearly 100°). We took the standing at the bar option. There were several tables in that area not occupied the entire time we ate there, and to add to the oddness, a party of six came in as we were on our way out the door and they were offered indoor seating with a 20 minute wait. Weird! But food was worth it and would go again if I'm in the wrigleyville area!

For Restaurant Week 2026, you were met with a drink (beer, N/A, or bourbon), one starter 'snack', entree and dessert for $48. In comparison to other participating restaurants this was a steal. I visited without a reservation on Wednesday evening, and there was ample seating. My friends and I enjoyed a sample of foods from the #CRW menu. For the 'snacks' we got the brisket devil eggs, the brisket loaded fries, as well as the chicken wings. All were very tasty however, the loaded fries were the star. Now here is where things got good. For our entree we had the 'Little City Eats' which was brisket, 1/2 rack ribs, chicken legs AND TWO sides (which I got the mac n cheese and the baked beans.) All the food was tasty and for the tasting menu, I was impressed with how much food we were provided. To go containers are needed. For dessert we got the banana pudding, we were scraping the bottom of the jar. Sweet but not overbearing and layered with wafers, and whip cream! Overall the food, was tasty, and the service was attentive and knowledgeable.

The restaurant was gorgeous and laid out well. Kinda fancy. We sat at the bar and had some drinks and split the lamb shank. Every head in the restaurant turned when they brought out that shank fresh from the oven. It was huge and aromatic and presented very well. The taste was even better. Wow! Only served on Sunday night and we were so glad to be there then. Great place for fine food and drink before a Cubs game. Can't be any closer to Wrigley! Best food in Wrigleyville!!!

We came here for a girls night out with a reservation for three and had such a great time. We sat inside and the interior was beautiful, but there was also plenty of outdoor seating available. For drinks, we ordered the cin cin espresso martini, Hugo's Vacation, witches brew, and rosé. Everything was well made, although I do think the cocktails were on the smaller side considering they were priced around $15-$18. For food, we ordered the Spicy Tagliolini di Granchio (definitely has a kick, but the crab is deshelled), Rigatoni Con Ragu, and the Chicken Diavola. The chicken was especially good for anyone who loves Mike's Hot Honey. It was a huge portion with crispy potatoes underneath and super saucy without actually being too spicy. All the food and drinks were tasty, but I definitely need to try the giant focaccia bread and Neapolitan-style pizza next time. They have this massive oven in the back that was imported from Italy, which was really cool to see.

We shared the lobster deviled eggs and Brussels sprouts. The deviled eggs were fine but to me the flavor of the lobster is lost in the egg filling. The Brussels sprouts were strange. We had asked other bacon on the side and it came out cold and limp... the sprouts were really greasy and they were topped with a strange tart flavored dressing. They were not enjoyable. My ahi tuna salad was what very different from what I am used to tasting. The dressing was too tart and overpowered the tuna. The greens were also overdressed and way too wet. Others had the Wrightwood salad, the turkey burger and the salmon and all enjoyed theirs.

The chicken empanadas tasted spoiled, with a sour and acidic flavor that clearly indicated they were not fresh. The ground beef empanadas were okay. We also ordered a churrasco, which was good but nothing special, and the Gaucha platter, which was also just average. The cocktails were disappointing and not enjoyable. The only positive aspect of our visit was the service. The staff was friendly, attentive, and pleasant throughout our meal. In my opinion, this is a place I would recommend only for having beers or wine. Sadly, based on this experience, I would not return.
