"Former Wicker Park resident, Machine, now has a new home in River North. Their subtitle has changed from “Engineered Dining & Drink” to “Cocktail Bar,” but they still have a small food menu with dishes like a burger, yellowtail crudo with mango vinegar, and chicken liver pate." - john ringor, nick allen

We haven’t been here yet, but want you to know this spot exists." - John Ringor
"The owners of Machine coordinate a hospitality meal program, giving out over 200 dinners to restaurant workers in need. They also donate and deliver meals to local hospitals for healthcare workers, as well as flower giveaways outside the restaurant." - adrian kane
"Since the 2019 debut of Machine in Wicker Park, where they shook up cocktail fans’ expectations with tableside florists and interactive drinks." - Naomi Waxman
"Movie Pairing:Tank Girl (Netflix) “Tank Girl combines two of my favorite movie things: a post-apocalyptic wasteland and awesome futuristic hair. And while Mad Max is the dystopian GOAT, during this current situation I’ll take brightly colored ass-kickings delivered by Lori Petty over the grim brooding of Furiosa anytime. Basically, it’s the feel-good post-apocalyptic movie you didn’t know you needed. And nothing goes better with the fun, ridiculous tone of this film than one of the slightly-silly cocktails from Machine (they come with candy cages and a little hammer), and pairing it with a giant bag of Cool Ranch Doritos.” -AK" - max bonem, adrian kane, carlo mantuano
