Best Cozy Restaurants in Old Irving Park

fanstastic food. the mezze were terrific - the scallop taco has been dubbed the best bite in chicago - i wouldnt go that far, but it was very good. the chaat with prawns was a messy tangle of yummy shrimp. the lamb taco was incredible. my niece loved the salad, the beets and mushrooms the cocktails are great. service was very good. this place will become one of the hardest reservations in town so book it now .

Always an exceptional experience when it comes to food. The service tonight with Rande was next level. Rande made us feel very comfortable and was so knowledgeable. Can't wait to return!

This was our first visit. The service was superb in all aspects. The food is inventive and well prepared. Not all dishes were fully successful but all displayed creativity. The deserts wrere wonderful. The ambience was very comfortable and inviting. All staff. were friendly and welcoming. A word of caution. The City of Chicago in their infinite wisdom has installed bike lanes on Milwaukee Ave. and effectively reduced street parking by 50 percent. There is valet parking next door and save yourself aggravation by using it.

Absolutely delicious!! The beet agnolotti was amazing and the rigatoni was delicious too. Highly recommend the onion dip!!

Absolutely outstanding! This restaurant has some of the best Mediterranean flavors I’ve ever experienced. The Lavraki was perfectly cooked—crispy on the outside, tender and flaky inside, with just the right touch of seasoning. The beet salad was a fresh and vibrant masterpiece, beautifully balanced with flavors and textures. The Tzatziki was creamy, tangy, and the perfect complement to the meal. And don’t even get me started on the baklava— frozen yogurt, crispy pastry sheets, honey with just the right amount of sweetness to end the meal on a high note. From start to finish, the food was impeccable, and the service was warm and attentive. Highly recommend!
