"You could get oysters from Bavette’s, but reservations are some of the toughest to get in the city. Go to Trivoli Tavern instead for the same East Coast oysters, a more casual space, and less of a headache. This West Loop counterpart offers oysters for Happy Hour during the week from 4-5pm, and as part of their dinner menu. Getting a table at Trivoli still requires a bit of planning, but a spot on their twinkly lit patio is worth the effort: it’s a very cute backdrop for a rabid fight with your date over the last bivalve mollusk." - veda kilaru
