- GGabrielVIPFort Lauderdale •19 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoFor years, I had heard of Doc B’s & never had the opportunity to go & it did not disappoint. The service was excellent, as well as the food, but the  Chimichurri Wings were off the chain. Those are highly recommended!More infoDoc B’s Restaurant - River NorthPrice: Moderate• American• River North (Chicago)•4.7

- AAChicago / Illinois •5 reviews4.0Dined on Mar 2, 2025Overall, great! The food was fantastic! Our server was very attentive. The ambience was average, but not the best for a date, which I was on. Great if you want to go with friends or family. My only concern was they didn't provide gloves to break up the seafood. Still though, I would go back!More infoAngry Crab - Wicker ParkPrice: Moderate• Creole / Cajun / Southern• Bucktown / Wicker Park•4.2
