"The New York import arrived a few years ago, bringing all-day food and drink options to Avondale. For a casual neighborhood bar, the food punches above its weight, with eclectic flavors like Thai Brussels sprouts, Cholula honey wings, and a falafel burger. The double cheeseburger and spicy chicken sandwich are also standouts. And Mother’s Ruin is open every day of the year, with the kitchen operating until 2:30 a.m. on weekends." - Jeffy Mai
