"It’s 5pm and you just need a glass of wine, some food, and a safe space to complain about work that isn’t Slack. Head to Joe’s, an easy-to-get-into wine bar in the West Loop with tasty small plates.Order dishes like ricotta with honey, meatballs, or the pasta of the day. This place has both a dimly lit interior that will soothe your burned-out screen eyes, and a sidewalk patio that rarely feels crowded." - adrian kane
