"This North Center bar and restaurant mashes up Southwest-inspired food and drinks with improv. Along with serving dishes like oyster chile relleno and BBQ tiger prawns with mojo de ajo, The Western will also be the new home for comedy collective CIC Theater. We haven’t been here yet, but want you to know this spot exists." - John Ringor
"A taste of the Southwest arrives in North Center from two hospitality veterans, serving Sonoran-influenced dishes such as oysters chile rellano, barbecue prawns with mojo de ajo, and a burger with gruyere, bacon jam, and watercress; agave-based spirits drive the drinks, downstairs houses pool and cocktail lounges, and a theater space debuting in the fall will become the new home of CIC Theater." - Jeffy Mai
"You can’t miss this place if you’re driving by. And once inside you won’t want to leave. With a truly stunning interior and exclusive beers you can’t find anywhere else, the Finch Beer Co.’s official brewpub is a site to behold. A towering neon bird, exposed timber beams, and walls covered in salvaged barn wood, as well as a nice view of the brewery next door, makes this a memorable stop on Montrose Ave. Also, thanks to chef Matthias Merge, the menu is made up of mostly handcrafted sausages. Beers, sausages, Chicago." - Bark Design
