Phong Nguyen: Get the special chicken. Spicy and delicious!
shane taylor: Terrific food! Family owned with an upscale presentation at non-upscale prices. Vegetarian friendly! Wish they still had the hongos.
Serious Eats: La Encantada serves an elegantly executed Mexican-style ceviche, with shrimp, tomato, and avocado uniformly chopped into tiny bites and filled in with plenty of cilantro and purple bits of onion.

Sanjay Gupta: Classic IRISH pub in Chicago - Tuesday nights provide good times with karaoke / wing specials / a fun coed crowd. Additionally, there are daily drink and food specials everyday! on Tuesday night
Larry Furmanic: A very popular and busy nite life spot. Service was excellent even though the place was packed and a line up to get in. Had the chicken wings and they were excellent. Highly recommend it.
Cole Kennedy: Saying that a sports bar has great nachos has to be the most abused superlative in restaurant history, but in this case, it's true. Get the chili nachos and be happy.
