We were staying at the Virgin Hotel across the street so we stopped in here twice during our week in Chicago. The first time, which was earlier in the evening, we sat at the bar and ordered a couple of drinks from the bartender named Kris, which was a 5-star experience.
The second time was late at night and the place was packed. We were seated at a table and had some cheese curds which were just fine. I think this is probably the more typical experience.
