"Known for a bustling, family-friendly atmosphere that drew generations of regulars, the Chicago Brauhaus gave patrons a year-round Oktoberfest with lederhosen-clad musicians, massive beer steins, and hearty German fare. The restaurant became a preferred location among neighbors for wedding receptions, family holiday gatherings, and celebrations of all kinds, where diners of all ages mingled and danced together. The restaurant closed in spring 2017 after more than half a century." - Naomi Waxman
