Beatnik

this place is so picturesque and unique. You have to go just for the design because it is stunning. The food is amazing too, but I am just obsessed with the look of this place.

Benchmark

this place is pretty popular to go out in at night but I really enjoy their food here especially their brunch. They have a bottomless option for brunch and anything with the word bottomless is my kind of place.

Bridge House Tavern

this is a summer hot spot. It is right along side the river and you get amazing views. Perfect place to grab some food and watch the boats drive by.

Forno Rosso Pizzeria Napoletana West Loop

everyone who knows me knows that I live for pizza and so when I find a good pizza place, you bet your booty I am going to talk about it, A LOT. This place is one of my favorites in Chicago. No, it is not deep dish, we can discuss those some other time, but it is Neapolitan style aka Italian. They only use ingredients they have in-house and that they get delivered from Italy once a week...umm yes please!!
