Cocktail bar · Logan Square

@infatuation

"One of our favorite vegan restaurants, Don Bucio’s, closed earlier this year. Now that team (also of Amaru and Bloom fame) launched The Basement, a new cocktail lounge, in its place. And while the Logan Square location may be the same, the food is decidedly not vegan—everything from steak frites, to branzino, to maple szechuan glazed tenders are on the menu." - john ringor, veda kilaru, nick allen
