OMG the tacos. Again...OMG the tacos. Go here for "real" Mexican food. Don't google it, because they don't have a website. And don't ask them what's good (at least in English); they won't understand.

Whiskey!!! Honestly, I've only had the mussels and they were amazing. But I've probably drank half the bar. The whiskey cocktails are incredible. Foodwise, they specialize is seafood and swine.

Deep dish pizza. They actually refuse to cut to-go orders because it ruins the "integrity" of the pizza. Grab a beer at the bar while waiting.
