    [[HIGHLIGHT]]This bar is a cute corner spot, but not as many tables as you'd expect and a bit tight.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We had to wait a bit on a Sunday. The service was just ok, we had to wait a while for our server to come back after food was set and provide us with silverware, but they were pretty busy and it didn't seem like there many servers to cover. Food was solid - Mac and cheese bites, buffalo wings, potato skins, and egg rolls. All solid.

    So yummy! I highly recommend the tamarind wings if you like strong flavors. Expect some waits on a Friday night, it is a popular spot. Service here is great.

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Fun lively atmosphere to watch the closing ceremony of the Olympics![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Great attentive service and everything was so quick! We got the Mac and cheese squares to start and wow they were incredible!!! Love that they come with ranch and Mariana? Literally no notes they were perfect and great to share! The wings were phenomenal and are huge!!!!! Really enjoyed this Sunday! Put us in a great mood

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Had a couple of spritzes and wings here. Great low key bar with good food.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We started with scrumptious Mac and cheese bites and then shared the jumbo wings - we got mango habanero and hot buffalo. These were delicious and saucy. I also got a small side salad, but this was overdressed. Otherwise, everything was great.

    This is my new favorite wing spot! Food was very quick, good sports bar vibes! To start we got nachos and Mac n cheese bites. The nachos were more of a wonton chip, they were good. The Mac n cheese bites were amazing. Sooo crispy! The wings are so good, cooked perfectly. I got the Carolina gold and mango habernero. The Carolina gold is sooo good, has a sweet taste. The mango habernero could be. Abut spicier but overall loved it!

    Grilled Chicken Wrap

    Summertime chi was in full effect so after looking at photos, I wanted to try this spot to sit on the sidewalk patio outside! I arrived and asked for a table for two and it was just a short wait at 7pm on a Thursday. The staff were kind and we decided to order the wings, fries, and the grilled chicken wrap!everything was just okay and nothing special, and the chicken wrap didn't have too much chicken in it, mainly lettuce and bacon bits. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The vibe is fun being a neighborhood spot, but I won't be returning.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Potato Skins! You get 4 but I was really hungry.

Outside, vibrant with hanging flowers and tasteful covers. Inside is bright with stark woods and black accents creating a classy but casual atmosphere. We had a table of 8, and our waiter was on point, making great suggestions, was charismatic and did a great job. Every time service came, there was help to expedite the service. We ordered the calamari and meatballs for appetizers. Both were exceptional. They went quickly. I couldn't get pictures. I had the focaccia with prosciutto which was a suggestion and it was the perfect blend of savory and sweet...fantastic. Likewise, my rigatoni was exceptional. Most of the table had their signature burger and they raved about it. If you're in Chicago looking for really solid Italian food, I highly recommend Bar Sienna.

The ambiance is cozy, intimate, and perfect for date night, but it's also a great place to pop in for a quick cocktail if you're out enjoying the city. Their handcrafted drinks were delicious, and I loved that they offer a full wine selection as well. We were able to grab seats at the bar with no problem, relax, and enjoy the atmosphere. If you're looking for a chic, laid-back place to connect over great drinks, I definitely recommend Bar Siena.

Decided we would hit the Fulton Market area and landed at Bandit. Was lucky to find street parking just a few storefronts away. Sat at the bar, it was not a 3-digit heat wave day and the front windows were all open, so it was confortable. Started with Jose Cuervo traditional margaritas which were refreshing. I had the chicken lettuce wraps which were really good. The lettuce was fresh and crisp, the peanut sauce had a little bit of zing and the chicken salad was very tasty. Spouse ordered the Nashville Chicken Tenders and also really enjoyed them with the scallion pancakes. 3.95% surcharge is added but states it can be removed if requested

Our table started with the mozzarella sticks which I enjoyed, but the others didn't due to the very thin tempura batter. The entrees we felt 50/50 on. I did the chicken gyro which had a nice flavor, however felt like it was mostly pita bread and fries. For the price I would have expected a bit more filling. They also have a full bar but were unable to make a Hugo spritz which seems like a miss, especially during the summer. Overall we will return, but it isn't high on the priority list.
