I always have great food at Jake Melnick’s! The wait time for a table was extremely long for people who didn’t have a reservation, we did and we were seated right away. Who goes to a restaurant in Chicago on a Saturday night without reservations?! The service was outstanding. We always swing through Jake Melnick’s when we are in town, they have AMAZING wings.

We mostly have decent to average service here and we come quite a bit. However, this time the service from Kevin was exceptional. Even though it appeared he had 5+ tables, he still delivered personalized service.

Food was terrible. I ordered chicken wings and chicken boneless, too greasy, with chicken fat. Ew

I've always enjoyed their BBQ. The beer towers are fun and good value. I tried the wings for the first time on this recent visit and they were delicious!
