"It’s nice to hang inside the cozy interiors of this Oak Lawn-adjacent bar, but the patio’s really where it’s at. Snag a seat under the giant trees adorned with twinkle lights and feel the breeze on your face. Better still if you pop in on a Friday night during one of their patio parties with DJs spinning late into the night. Boost your energy with a Red Bull Watermelon margarita, crafted with Astral Tequila Blanco, the Ivy’s own classic margarita mix, and Red Bull Watermelon for an extra caffeine kick. Stay fueled with some of their tasty, shareable food options, like brisket fries and chicken-and-veggie potstickers." - Steven Craig Lindsey
