The Most Fun Dinner Spots In Chicago - Chicago - The Infatuation

"This Greek Restaurant in the West Loop is the size of a football stadium, crowded, plays loud music, and has dishes that pop up regularly on TikTok. 10pm reservations are coveted because at midnight, they pass out white napkins for everyone to twirl around, servers come out singing and waving sparklers, and the entire restaurant turns into a club. While some of Lyra’s menu can be hit or miss, the flaky spanakopita and tender lamb ribs are delicious enough to help you forgive the restaurant’s flaws, especially if you love pyrotechnics and being surrounded by an absurd amount of wicker lampshades." - adrian kane, john ringor, veda kilaru, nick allen
