    A whole lot of Oysters
    Sidney Z.

    What a fun place to spend a Sunday afternoon @ Easy Does It! Mind you, I was the oldest person there by 100 years (I'm prone to exaggerate) but my #3 son was there with his significant and me and my wife just like being with them. Apparently Easy Does It have these "Once a Month" Sunday themed events that really packs them in: Paella Night Weintoberfest celebrating German Wines We were at their 5 Year Anniversary with DJ's and a ton of food These gatherings are pretty damn cool - The wines they serve are very good and we had plates and plates of very good oysters on ice. The music was loud and everyone had a smile on their face. What else could be better!

    This is the vibe! Drinks are strong and the service is great. Open seating and order at the bar. It's a very chill vibe in the day but when the do set starts it gets bumping and it's nonstop dancing by the stage. I need to come by when they have food events. Best time with the girls here or a fun date night.

    thursday wine tasting: oregon B-sides
    Sam L.

    Heard about the thursday wine tastings and decided to try this place out with a couple friends. Totally loved it! We came for the b-side oregon wine tasting, and our guide was a very silly yet intellectual man who led us on a perfect tasting experience. He really hyped up each of the areas where these wines were coming from and drew from his personal knowledge of these sort of small-business growers and their methods. We got to try six wines for $10 per person, with pretty good sized pours. I tried an orange wine skin-contact pinos gris named tomato ramato, and was very impressed. The back patio seating was awesome, with plenty of space. Easy does it was also hosting a birria taco pop-up at the same time, so got to enjoy some tacos for dinner. I hope to come back for another tasting!

    Cute place, large outdoor patio which is great for snow free days. They have an inside as well. This place has good wines, chilled well, and the staff are casual and nice. When sitting outside the bathroom is in a weird / creepy place. You go up an industrial metal stair, around some corners, inside and down a hall. Definitely doesn't feel comfortable at night.

    Ask for Francisco! He offers insightful recommendations if you need help deciding on a wine or a cocktail. cheers y'all!

    Easy Does It is listed in the Top 10 wine bars in America!!!! This place is straight-up cool. From the street, Easy Does It looks like a wine store. Once you show your ID you can walk up the staircase and the wine shop transforms into a cool wine bar and lounge. Food & Wine: The wines at this establishment are constantly changing. They have it all: white, red, sparkling, rose, and orange wines! Yes, I said orange wines! Try it! But don't worry, you don't have to be a wine snob to enjoy this lounge. They also offer cocktails, ciders, spirits, and beer. If you're getting hungry they have snacks. I recommend the cheese plate or popcorn to keep the good times rolling. Service: Ask for Francisco! He is the best sommelier in town. If you need a recommendation or just want to talk about wine, Francisco is the man. Overall, the staff is extremely friendly and attentive. I like to sit at the bar so I can easily get my drinks and have a clear view of the live entertainment. Ambiance: This is a huge lounge, with separate areas depending on the size of your party. From time to time Easy Does It has live entertainment! Check out the Instagram page @easydoesitchicago for all the details on upcoming events. Tonight was Jazz night. Overall: On the top ten wine bars in America list. Great for date night! Ask for Francisco for recommendations. Large space. Lounge seating areas. Chill vibe. Great for small or large groups. Live entertainment by local talent. You can go by yourself and meet great people.

    We came to East Does It with a small group and had a scheduled wine tasting. The staff was friendly and did a great job. We tried 6 different wines. They brought them out one at a time, told us a bit about the winery it came from, how it was made, and what it tastes like. It was educational, but also pretty casual and not too intense. All of the wine was fantastic and our guide did an excellent job taking care of us. They served us at our own pace and ensured we had a great time. The location itself is very cool. I would love to come back sometime when I am in the neighborhood to sit down and have a glass or two. Great place to bring a friend or group of friends for some conversation.

    Snacks are fire. Wine is incredible. Tunes are always good. Jonathan R was our bartender. Couldn't imagine a kinder welcome into a space than his smiling face. The bar back Fidel was also incredible. To say we'll be back is an understatement. We need more Jon and Fidel in our lives. Thank god we came here.

    Went here for NYE. I was really disappointed by the food. It has good reviews and a friend had been…read moreand liked it. I got the pre fixe menu. The pickled deviled eggs were tasty. It was not an "Amuse bouche" which is a single bite item, it was much more but I'm not complaining about that! The appetizer was grilled octopus over sweet potato mash. I learned that day that sweet and grilled octopus is not a good mix. It was nearly gross. I picked the octopus up and tried to brush off as much of the sweet potatoes and possible. The octopus tasted good but was over cooked. My main was the branzino. It was charred to a crisp and full of bones. It did not taste good and was extremely difficult to eat. I did not taste the German chocolate cake for dessert but was told it was dry and people barely touched it. My husband and others are our table got short rib goulash, which was served like a steak with gravy. It wasn't tender like short rib should be. He said the flavor was good at least. Someone got the fish and chips and said it was flavorless. Someone else got the burger and said it was also charred and over cooked. Over all, pretty disappointed. Cute place with decent service. Hopefully this was just an off night.

    Third time at cobblestone and this time was for Valentine's Day. We wanted someplace cozy and cute…read moreand Cobblestone set the bar high with a candlelit dinner. They had a terrific Valentine's Day dinner $95 for two people which included a small amuse-bouche each, an appetizer to share, individual entrees, and a dessert to share. We loved the crispy broccolini and were fighting over it. The entrees were huge portions and packed with flavor. I consider myself a scallop connoisseur and in all the restaurants we've ever been in, these scallops were cooked beautifully. They had a perfect sear to them on the outside but cooked perfectly on the inside as well, 10/10 no notes this is the scallop I will compare all future scallops to. And the duck confit, oh my...we also fought over this dish which paired incredibly well with beans to our surprise. Chocolate cake had a beautiful strawberry sauce on the bottom. Everything was incredible including the service. Cobblestone remains our favorite in the area and is loved by all the locals. Thank you for a perfect Valentine's Day dinner.
