Review of Chef’s Special Cocktail Bar

This is now *our spot* when I come to visit my friends in Chicago. The menu is a little confusing, but basically tell your server you are celiac and they can guide you through it. Everyone I’ve interacted with has been phenomenal.

Do not skip the green bean appetizer, in fact, get your own. I love the dry chili chicken (fried, spicy chili oil, amazing) and the cashew chicken is good for balance on the table. I think I had the Kung Pao last time, but can’t really remember. I’ll update next time I go. The Chi Chi drink and old fashioneds are good.
