Bluestone

This place is not bad if you want to have some food and drinks before a Northwestern basketball game. This is the only reason we came here. It's very close to the Welsh Ryan arena. The bar staff and the patrons were friendly, even to other, visiting fans. Expect a long wait if you go here before any games though. Once you are seated the food did come out fast. The food is just your typical average bar food, but like I said it's close to the arena and they serve decent food and drinks.

Sandy is the greatest restaurant manager ever.  Let her order for you.  Get a Ginger Fizz..  BCO sandwich and tostada app were amazing.  I hear they are moving down the bock.  I hope nothing changes!  Rock on.  This is the perfect neighborhood joint.

Nice, warm atmosphere - if you can get a table by the fire, all the better. Most of the wait staff is terrific. The food is varied and you always know you'll walk away satisfied no matter what you're hungry for.
