All the food was delicious and service/employees were great! Brisket tacos had amazing flavor and fresh greens for the salads. Korean fried rice and Wagyu Flat Iron was also fantastic. Long whiskey list and house made beers. Only downside to our first experience is that if I make a reservation for a certain time and there are clearly a bunch of open tables, I expect to be seated at my time of reservation. Still five stars and will definitely return!

Fantastic ambience both indoors and outdoors, quality food having some of the ingredients sourced from their own farm and greenhouse, amazing collection of whiskies and a brewery with some very delicious beers. I have all praise for this restaurant/gastropub. Will come back again to try out the Salmon tartar we did not get because they ran out of it and the baked goat cheese. We tried bison burger, ravioli and brisket tacos. Burger was the best having bison patty and a pork belly combo, Ravioli was prepared well. Was not very impressed with Brisket tacos though because there was hardly any brisket and tacos were too small. May try their brisket main entree during next visit. Ended with mango parfait (which felt like a meal in itself) and a whiskey espresso (may need little more body to showcase espresso character) for dessert. Overall loved it.

Nice, quiet atmosphere with a wood burning stove on the outside. I ordered the Bison Burger and the food arrived very well cooked and tasty. Probably one of the largest whiskey collections I've seen behind the bar.

I'm quite disappointed 😞 to be honest and I absolutely love this place. The homemade bread was to die for and I love the whipped butter. Please bring …

Call the restaurant early one afternoon and ask to speak to a hiring manager about opportunities for young adults. See this article for Illinois State employment guidelines https://www.thebalancecareers.com/minimum-age-to-work-in-illinois-2085369
