"Taxim serves lots of traditional Greek dishes in an upscale environment. Their food is consistently good, and there’s really no wrong way to order. But you should make sure to get a lamb dish, and at least one of their pastry appetizers (like leek and goat cheese in homemade phyllo). Come for a date night or even a big group dinner—that way, you can try as much of the menu as possible. Plus, Taxim is the rare Wicker Park spot with a great rooftop view." - sam faye, adrian kane, john ringor
