I keep going back because the space is fantastic on cool summer days, sadly the food, service, and drinks continue to make me wonder if the roof deck is enough to get me to return again.

Been here a half dozen times, service ranges from "ok" to "at least they came back with my credit card". The food is good, not great.

You go because of the rooftop deck on a sunny day and solid, tasty drinks, but expect little else. And bring cash so you can leave when you need.

This is a lovely rooftop bar! The downstairs restaurants also have great food (Asian and taco places underneath the rooftop restaurant/bar) and are all under same ownership. There s sometimes a bit of a wait on a nice afternoon or night, so it s fine to put your name on a long list and expect a text when your table is ready while you grab drinks or food downstairs. The cocktails are awesome and the staff is super lovely always.

Beautiful, minimal space with a huge outdoor patio/deck. We were there on a nice night which was a plus. Menu is limited and not great for vegetarians. Not sure why a hot dog is on the menu. Decent beer menu.

Fun spot with delicious comfort food and creative mixed drinks. Great dining experience with top notch service. Our server Maggie was the best, knew the menu the food and the bar answered all of our questions and kept our table neat our water full. Be sure try this fun spot along with it's attached sister restaurants LuLu and Taco Diablo.

What a great surprise, just walked in off the street. Sat on roof,outside, very pleasant and fun, nice views. Service was friendly and prompt. All 4 of us loved our dinners. I ESPECIALLY loved the Tuna Poke if u are into asian!!

We also met some classmates here this is where we started off the same night and didn't know about it and I love the area where it's at in Evanston in the patio setting it was very nice and we had a blast I would go there again to which is me and my husband

One of the best bars in all of downtown Evanston. First of all, it is on a rooftop. Second, it is a great location with a unique layout. They have games to play and great drinks. They also have a limited, but flavorful menu!

Nice outside and inside seating areas and solid menu. Service is ok. One day went there and kitchen was closed 1 hour earlier than what is the normal schedule because it was raining - looked like an excuse because they were low on traffic. On top of it, we had called before to make a reservation (which they do not take) and were not told the kitchen would be closing earlier.

Beautiful deck from which to enjoy a delicious cocktail. Server was charming & friendly. But it's a little pricey....almost 100 bucks for 2 with tip for sandwiches, 3 drinks (total) & appetizers.

I always wanted to visit them and finally I got a chance last evening.
Its a nice place to hangout with good food and a small game arcade and a big collection of board games.
Salmon entre was fresh and grilled to perfection. I think the 'grilled lemon' could have replaced with something more edible as the serving of the side was too petite.
Overall a pleasant experience!!

Met friends for drinks here one night a couple weeks during COVID. We sat on the rooftop and the staff was professional and courteous. Proper precautions were in place and we enjoyed our evening here. Would definitely go back.

Fun place. Good cocktails and ambiance. Love the pinball machines although a buck a game seems kinda pricey.

That said, it's a fun, casual place to have a nice night on the town. The outdoor patio is great in the summertime!

Great Service & ambiance. Staff was very friendly and always checked up on you. Food was yummy. Tuna poke bowl was fresh! Our party ordered a Burger that was juicy and the ribs were on point. I wish some of their cocktail drinks were a little bit more stronger, but great beer selection.
Thanks we will be returning again!

Cute rooftop bar! This was my first was going out since February and I felt very comfortable. All of the staff was wearing a mask and when the server comes up to your table you put your mask on as well. The food and drinks were great! Will definitely visit again soon!

Love the space. Always lovely in the evening looking at the city and hearing swallows well overhead.
Always disappointed with the breadth of the menu. Tonight they were out of burrata, one of 7 dishes on the menu.
Much more of a drinks and an appetizer place than have a drink and dinner spot.

I had just gotten my pedicure, so I was in a good mood (Bien Assorti), but anyway, my girlfriend and I just wanted a drink to celebrate our heightened podiatric status.

We both had the Frozen Mai Tai. It was

Rooftop outdoor dining
Floral flowers
Social Distance

Unfortunately, there are yellow jackets that kinda fly in your face and crawl in your straws. Not the restaurant's fault. I wouldn't mind seeing their cocktail menu expand in the future...but I'm not from IL so i guess it doesn't matter.
