Best Restaurants with a Happy Hour in Near North

Great place to relax and unwind while enjoying good food and great service

Lulu was very knowledgeable and attentive. We loved her guidance throughout the meal and would absolutely request her again! The food was divine and the wine selection was vast. I haven’t been back since 2018 and am so glad we got to visit this trip! We will be back :)

Joe’s is the premium steak house in Chicago! Service is not matched anywhere! Wine list is excellent and food UNBELIEVABLE! A random observation- the light level is excellent, you can actually see the food and move around the restaurant without fear of breaking your leg! Many other steakhouses are so dark, it’s a drag to see and go to the bathroom! We were delayed a tiny bit by a previous couple, Joe’s gifted us an order of Stone crab, just so thoughtful! I have been a fan of Joe’s since it first open in Chicago. Still the Best Steak/Wine list/Dessert/SERVICE IN TOWN ! NOT SUPER LOUD.

The food here was fabulous. Chicken Vesuvio, Caesar salad, Apple Fennel Salad, and Pasta Carbonara. All gluten free! And delicious! You can’t go wrong here. Wine list is also spot on.

The chicken kabobs were delicious. Our server steered me away from my first choice, which I appreciated. Nice relaxed vibe and service was excellent!
