People always ask me about the restaurants I’ve recently tried and enjoyed. In an attempt to streamline this information, I will recap my dining experiences monthly with rundown!
From happy hours to hidden gems, I loved trying and revisiting some amazing restaurants in Chicago.
BEATRIX
834 W. Fulton Market
Beatrix has a great happy hour special: $5 local beers, $6 wines, $7 hand-crafted cocktails, $9 burgers. I love a burger and a drink for less than $20!

CBR
505 N. State
I went to CBR for the July installment of their Summer Spirit Series. The tacos and cocktails were phenomenal, so I would absolutely return in the future to check out more items on CBR’s amazing menu.
EGGSPERIENCE
3233 N. Broadway
I have been a huge fan of Eggsperience for years, so I was happy to be back. The omelettes are incredible and filling. Eggsperience is reliable for a consistently good breakfast.
HOMESLICE
938 W. Webster
I’ve been to Homeslice and its sister restaurants several times in the past, but I had never tried the Nadene pizza with cupped pepperoni, ricotta, basil, hot honey and a marinara base.
HUB 51
51 W. Hubbard
Hub 51 is one of my favorite restaurants in River North. I love their happy hour specials. The nachos are consistently amazing. Even the happy hour portion of the nachos could be a meal!
TAXIM
1558 N. Milwaukee
I need to go back to Taxim to try more of the items on the menu. They had some great shareable dips, and I loved the shrimp wrapped in grape leaves.
Where should I go next month? We need to make the most of patio season before we are trapped inside all winter!
