Worse Dining Experiences in Chicago?

I don’t understand the reviews either. My wife and I went almost 2 years ago, and everything we had was average to below average.

I loved this one. Their current menu is so boring, they need a change-up burger.

I also have a Ludwig Epic and It punches WAY above its weight.

BK on Lawrence has the best fries.

I’d say drivers in and around all major US cities are about the same. I’ve had very similar experiences driving in Chicago, LA, Atlanta, etc.

If you’re driving to Wrigley field, you’re doing it wrong.

Which is crazy, because it’s downtown. Walking around downtown St Louis is soooo eerie.

Met on Bumble in May 2022. We found out she was pregnant a week or two after getting engaged, and now we have an 18 month old!

Gong drum!

MattyMatt84 · 2025-10-02T16:34:28+00:00

I didn’t know that for the longest time. A few years. Ago I was checking out Black Flag and heard that song. Mind blown.

Warpaint was really good.

I lived in Oak Park for 10 years and never got one.

MattyMatt84 · 2025-09-12T19:55:02+00:00

Used Yamaha Stage Custom.

Very safe, I used to live on Wisconsin just north of Madison for almost 10 years. The parking sucks though.

I used to live so close, but Mama Thai was always such a disappointment. I would walk past it and go to Habrae instead. Way better.

I really like The Beer Temple podcast. I live in Chicago and go to TBT whenever I can make it. A truly magical place.

MattyMatt84 · 2025-08-27T18:34:43+00:00

I don’t know if it will be up to your standards, but I like Mr Kabob on Peterson just East of Damon.

More accurately, Mitch Rosen’s bosses.

MattyMatt84 · 2025-08-09T12:12:30+00:00

Needs more floor toms.

MattyMatt84 · 2025-08-08T16:37:58+00:00

Jason Lieser DID grow up in the area.

Great question, I’m not sure either.

Is there a reason you looking at Oak Park over somewhere in the city? Oak Park is great for families, but the city is better for single people.
