    BLT Sandwich
    Molly M.

    This place is worth another review. My husband and I have been coming here for years before events at the United Center. We're always able to get a table, but it always seems busy somehow. The service is very friendly, food is elevated bar food and extremely tasty. Drinks are reasonably priced. This is a neighborhood staple and I hope it never goes away. Most recently we visited and got a bucket of beer, and my husband had a delicious cheeseburger, and I had a BLT that I've been thinking about ever since. Even the coleslaw was great. The shuttle to Blackhawks games can't be beat!

    Buffalo Wings & Bacon Wrapped Jalepenos
    Kyle C.

    Food was excellent, will definitely be back. Wings ordered extra crispy and they delivered. The poppers are amazing, super crunchy bacon and a nice spicy jalapeño. Tons of TVs, would be a great spot to watch a game.

    Black Bean Burger and Curly Fries
    Bryanna J.

    My partner and I LOVE CrossRoads! Every time we go there the service is great. The food is so yummy, we also want to come back. Fun bar scene with TVs to watch sports games. We don't go all the time because we're not in the city but definitely a go to spot when we're in the area!

    Coziest bar/grill in West Loop. Real mystic falls energy. Think the basis for an Applebees $6 peroni on a Saturday. I mean cmon!

    a glass of beer and a plate of food
    Pilar G.

    This is pretty much a standard sports bar. They have a large selection of beer and pub food. The best thing about this bar is that they have a FREE shuttle to the United Center for basketball and hockey game and most of the big concerts. We just stopped in for drinks so I'm not sure how the food is, but drinks were nice! I had a goose island beer and my friend had a watermelon margarita. They brought me a glass for my bottled beer which was a nice touch. We were able to walk in and sit down right away. The bar was full but there were plenty of booths and tables open. They also have a nice outdoor seating area. Will definitely be back here before a game or concert

    Bad Guinness
    Cesar M.

    Don't order the Guinness, they don't use nitro to pour the beer. The pulled pork sandwich was decent.

    I chose the pulled pork, carved turkey, and fried chicken sliders.  All were very good!!

    I like this place a lot! The CrossRoads Bar & Grill is a sports bar one mile due east of the United Center. As such, it is a great option before or after any event you happen to attend there. On March 10th my wife and I were at the United Center to watch Purdue defeat Rutgers in the quarterfinals of the Big 10 Mens' Basketball Tournament. It was an intense game and we worked up an appetite. Afterwards, we decided to stop in here to celebrate the victory, and catch some of the Michigan State/Ohio State quarterfinal. When you walk, in the first thing you notice: there are plenty of tvs to view any & all sporting events. Towards the middle of the room there was a roaring fireplace which added some nice ambiance. We grabbed a booth towards the back of the room. Marissa waited on us and she was great. I started with a Bloody Mary and it was one of the best I've had! For lunch I had three sliders: Pulled Pork, Fried Chicken, and Carved Turkey. All three were very good. My wife ordered the Prime Rib Sandwich. For her side she was weighing several options but leaning towards the Sweet Corn Tots. Marissa tipped the scales by stating the Sweet Corn Tots are her personal favorite. My wife's sandwich was delicious. It comes with Swiss cheese, which she felt was a unique twist that took it to another level. The Sweet Corn Tots are a house specialty and were a great recommendation. Thanks Marissa! If you are ever in the area and looking for a sports bar, I highly recommend The CrossRoads Bar & Grill.

    Amazing service food was amazing. Everyone of the staff treated me with much respect and kindness! Give Kate a raise she went above and beyond to meet my expectations will for sure come again!!

    Chuckwagon burger.
    Abigaile W.

    Its a sports bar. Its a sports bar atmosphere that offers a sports bar menu. Its a bit loud because there's multiple tvs. My mom and I stopped in between hockey games to get dinner and the crowd was a bit loud. We got cheese curds and I got the chuckwagon burger. The food was good but there was a three percent service charge and a charge for ranch. For sports bar food that's a bit off putting.

    Great little rustic bar and grill in west loop! Service was great. Food options are priced well and very tasty! Also wonderful portions. A great place to go with friends and enjoy a game. Great game day menu! Also great outdoor seating and windows when the weather permits. Staff was kind, welcoming and very attentive. Happy to add this to rolodex for bars on game day!

    My favorite hangout! Have been going for years and it's still the best sports bar and grill in the west loop. The food is delicious and the outdoor patio is awesome, also dog friendly! The staff hasn't changed after all this time which says a lot about the business. A must go!

    Fried chicken sandwich
    Annie Y.

    Nice spot. Went on a Wednesday night, wasn't super busy and we were able to sit wherever we wanted. We sat on the patio. Decent selection of beer. For appetizer, we had fried pickles. They were bigger than most fried pickle chips I've had but I liked it! Made for a nice breading to pickle ratio. I then had the sliders, the prime rib one was so good, 10/10. Next time I would just get that as a sandwich. The pulled pork was fine, but could have been saucier in my opinion. Cheeseburger one was pretty decent. My partner got the fried chicken sandwich. He really liked it! Over all a a good experience.

    Was craving a burger and a beer and with such a cool name, how could I not check this place out! I…read moresat at the bar around 5pm and it wasn't very busy. They played good music and wasn't too loud. You could easily carry on a conversation or , like me, continue listening to a podcast. By the time I finished, the place was completely full and a bit noisy, but not bad. I started out with a 10oz Birds of Prey Pilsner. It was very nice. Light and crisp and very easy to drink. I followed that up with Melodious Maibock and ordered the CBG burger with fries. I didn't have lunch so I dove right in and forgot to snap a photo. It was a very good smash burger. It was cooked well and I really liked the combination of pickled onion and caramelized onion. I didn't see it until later but you can add bacon. As much as I loved this burger, bacon would totally take it up a notch! I started chatting with the bartender about their different beers and decided to have the Super Melodious Jalapeño Maibock with the burger. It's soooo different, but in a good way. It paired so well with the burger. You get green bell pepper on the nose and a hint of it on the palate. When you swallow you get a little heat at the back of the throat. It was so good! Great bar. Great food. Great beer. Go check them out!

    Good, not great, beer…read more Good, not great, service. Awesome location! We only came for beer and sat at a table (bar was full). This place seems to be much better as a dinner spot. If you want to hang out at a brewery and drink amazing beer, I'd probably choose one of the other breweries in town.

    I'm not sure why this place isn't more popular?!?! It was so good!!! We had the cacio e Pepe…read morearancini, the filet mignon sliders, and the ricotta gnocchi, everything was amazing!! The disco ball, red lights, and music were all a vibe, plus they have matchbooks. It was pretty much dead on a Friday night which is crazy to me and it has no reviews on here, but I would highly recommend!!! We found it through resy and I'm so happy we picked it! Go go go! Also service was top notch!

    We visited Bar Sotto during Chicago Restaurant Week and had a really enjoyable overall experience…read more The space has a cozy, dimly lit, intimate vibe perfect for a date night or a relaxed dinner with friends. It feels upscale but still comfortable. Service was attentive and paced well, especially considering it was Restaurant Week and fairly busy. The Restaurant Week menu offered a great variety. We started with the crispy arancini, which were perfectly golden on the outside and creamy inside with a rich glaze that added a nice depth of flavor. The wild mushroom risotto had great earthy flavor and was very rich, definitely a heavier dish but satisfying if you are in the mood for something indulgent. The gnocchi were soft and pillowy with fresh basil and roasted tomatoes that brightened the dish nicely. For entrées, the filet mignon was cooked beautifully, tender and medium rare with a flavorful sauce that complemented it well. The chicken parmesan had a solid crisp and good seasoning, though it leaned more classic than standout. Portions overall felt fair for the prix fixe price. Dessert was a sweet finish. The tiramisu was light, creamy, and not overly heavy, which we appreciated. Overall, 4 stars. Great ambiance and solid execution across the board. While nothing completely blew us away, it was a well done Restaurant Week experience and I would definitely come back to try more from their regular menu.
