• Italian • West Town
Booked 15 times today
Welcome to Oggi Trattoria!Family owned and operated, Oggi makes every guest that dines here feel like they are part of the family, too.In Italian, Oggi means “today,” and there’s no time like the present to be in the moment, enjoying a meal of fresh and delicious Italian food in the company of loved ones. The menu offers un classics like Grilled Octopus, Calamari, or Baked Clams as starters to whet the appetite. Pastas include favorites from house-made Gnocchi to Spaghetti Carbonara, Fettuccini Alfredo, and Lasagna. Meat dishes range from seafood and pasta dishes (try the Gamberi Alla Diavolo, linguine with a spicy shrimp and tomato sauce) to Saltimboca made with chicken or veal. Oggi’s menu features a wide range of pizza: both stuffed and thin crust, build-your-own or traditional. And it wouldn’t be an Italian family dinner without their homemade Tiramisù and Cannoli to finish off the meal. Come prepared to eat, and enjoy like you’re truly one of the family.

• Global, International • West Town
Booked 29 times today
An exotic neighborhood escape with globetrotting cuisine, tropical cocktails, bohemian interiors, and a great place to watch sports in Chicago’s West Town. Named after the Bohemian freethinkers of the 1950s and ’60s, Beatnik West Town channels the Beatnik generation’s sense of style, aspiration, and rebellion to create an exotic escape with maximalist interiors and lush gardens.Mirroring our design-through-storytelling whimsy, Beatnik’s culinary team takes guests on a globetrotting journey that starts in the Eastern Mediterranean, moves westward across Northern Africa and finishes across the Atlantic with the flavors of Mexico.Beatnik’s beverage team makes tropical cocktails that are savory and fresh, with inventive recipes that follow a no-waste sensibility. Our wine list is a compact attaché that contains the story of winemakers who make wine in lesser-known regions of the Mediterranean and the Americas.

• Ramen • West Town
Booked 10 times today
Step into Wax Vinyl Bar & Ramen Shop, where music and flavor hit all the right notes. Nestled in West Town, we pair a curated vinyl soundtrack with a menu that balances comfort and creativity. Our signature ramen bowls are a must, but don’t sleep on the crispy chicken wings or Tokyo shrimp—crowd favorites that keep people coming back. The bar pours craft cocktails, a wide spirits selection, and robust selection of brews, all designed to complement the food and the vibe. With plenty of vegan and gluten-free options, and a rotating lineup of DJs who set the mood without overpowering conversation before 9:00 (we turn it up a bit for the late night experience). Wax is the perfect spot for dinner, drinks, and an unforgettable night out.
