I don't know how I've forgotten to review this place, but it is my favorite place to swing by whether it's mid-afternoon or late at night. First and foremost, the staff is WONDERFUL!!! The bartenders are fun and easy to talk to, and so is the manager. Second, the food is great. The burgers are the best in the area and their nachos are quite awesome!!! Next, the prices are always reasonable, especially in comparison with other bars east of Western Ave (this place is about 2 blks west of Western). They also have Groupon Deals all the time, which is helpful when you're trying to save some cash. And lastly, I love the atmosphere. Unless there's a birthday party or something going on, this place is never overly crowded. You can actually hear yourself and your friends talk, and you're not standing shoulder to shoulder with a complete stranger.
You need to visit this joint. Just know that they're not open on Mondays :-(
Overall: Terrible experience. Â Will never go back here on my own will, even if it is the last place with food for 50 miles. Â (Groupon users beware and take note).
The Deets: Â I love trying new places, and I like saving money in the process. So I saw them on Groupon Now and thought I'd give them a try. What a mistake!
I ordered the $8.50 burger of the day (normally priced $10). (yea, I know, "Big special deal right there").  At the end of the meal, I gave my groupon and they bluntly said that "you can't use that Groupon because you ordered a promotional/special item of the day and groupons don't apply to these."  This statement is simply false  - either through ignorance or a lie.
At first, I gave them benefit of doubt and assumed "ignorance" - so I pulled up Groupon's "Fine print" and "terms to all of our Groupon deals" just to show them that the promotional value of the Groupon does not have special clauses - it is accepted as cash at the institution unless otherwise stated in the fine print. Â And guess how they reacted?.... the manager said, "oh, well I can't read that small print.... sorry but that is OUR policy." Â Not only that, but "we've been doing this for over 6 months and this is exactly what Groupon told us to do." Once again, false. Whoa, so you are saying that because of a difference of a $1.50 in the burger price, you are gonna not accept the Groupon just so I need to pay more money? Â Not cool. Â Not cool. Â (Note: I contacted Groupon after this experience and they have stated that they will need to have a talk with this establishment). Â
-What did I do afterwards? Â I called up Groupon just to inquire of their policy in a situation like this. Â What did Groupon say?... Well, promotional values are equivalent to their amount on the Groupon and have no restrictions unless stated in the fine print. Hence, Division Street Bar and Grill has been purposely over-charging customers for over 6 months.
-The manager sits very awkwardly in the corner of the restaurant with her laptop open, papers on the table... just not very appropriate I think at least....
-No draft beers, but has draft beer prices. Â What is up with that? There is a great liquor store on the corner with a better selection, cheaper prices, and tastes the same since there is NO DRAFT at the bar.
-Good burgers, but I won't be amiss since there are always more burgers to savor in this great city (see all my other reviews and my list of "Best Chitown Burgers").
Love this place!! Menu is very simple & could use a bit more variety, but ALL their burgers are amazing! However I've heard that their medium rare is a lil too rare; I always ask for medium well and bn satisfied every time...Fries are outta this world, drinks r pretty great and their service tops it all... Unfortunately everytime I've gone it seems to be a bit empty, total hidden gem that needs to be discovered...I'm def becoming a regular...
Review Source:I am a lover of burgers and this is certainly the place to get one!! Â I went here with my girlfriend when we saw a Groupon Now! The value was certainly there. The bartender/ server was an absolute delight! Why not a 5? I'll tell you. Â It was a bit cool in there; not the best insulation. The neighborhood was a bit sketchy as well. Â Will this stop me from going again? Not in the least! Best. Burgers. Ever.
Review Source:DSB is one of my favorite places in Chicago. It's a hidden gem with it's generic name and unassuming exterior. Actually I was scared to go into it the first few times I saw it because I figured it was some kind of neon brothel or biker gang hangout but then I realized it would be sweet if it WAS a brothel or biker gang hangout so I checked it out and it was a surprisingly great neighborhood bar.
Their burgers are really great and their french fries are good and their prices are fantastic and their appetizers tide you over while you wait for the food and they have TVs and board games Sunday trivia and interesting things to read on the walls of the bathroom and exposed brick and nice bar tenders and servers and usually decent music and cool lighting.
I also heard..
Went here last night with the girlfriend as we had a groupon valid for $10 for $20 worth of food. Â It was a great deal.
We arrived at around 7:30 p.m. on a Saturday night and the place was practically empty. There were some people at the bar, who appeared to be regulars, and the noise level was pretty good for conversation. I ended up having the North Avenue Burger. It was outstanding! I get my burger well done and this was still very juicy. Topped with bacon, tomato, lettuce, and an over-easy egg, it was very very very tasty. Quite frankly, this was one of the best burgers that I have ever had! Â It also came with large hand-cut fries that were also pretty good. Needless to say, I left there pretty full.
My girlfriend had the California Avenue burger and she thought it was very good too.
The service was great as our waitress was friendly and checked in on us often.
There weren't too many people that came in after we did and, at one point, it got very quiet. Nonetheless, it is still a good spot for a date as you can easily hear the person sitting across the table from you.
One item of note, however, is that the neighborhood is still pretty shady, so make sure that you park as close to the bar as possible.
We will definitely go back and try all of their burgers!
This place is two blocks away. I'm glad we discovered it and went on Academy Award night with our Groupon Now.
First off, the food was absolutely exceptional. My burger was delicious and I don't think I could have made a better choice than to order hot wings with it.
Our server was really pleasant and definitely on her A game. She joked with us, conversed, and often checked in on us.
Oh yeah... trivia was fun too!
My only problem... we went to watch the Oscar's and they were on but without sound. We only had sound inbetween the trivia, and about half way through trivia game I was bored and really just wanted to watch the Oscars... Or at the very least hear them! I was kind of frustrated.
All in all, though, it was a good time. I looove their Groupon deal (and their Yelp check-in promo.)
In the summer I will seriously be here alllll the time.
Stopped in 1/26
Jenise R Mentioned they had a burger special.
$5 Pub burger
Nice size space, Good music playing, big tvs.
The bartenders were witty and upbeat really good attitudes which was awesome, because they were pretty slow. Usually when a place is slow I get nervous....but the burger was phenomenal the service was amazing and we even got a Dove chocolate at the end!
I definitely recommend this place.
The beer selection is good not AMAZING but I'm sure that will come in time.
There is no better place in the area to grab a drink and some food. Â They have recently added empanadas too. Â Service is always great and prices cant be beat. Â Want to here something other then what they are playing? Â Just mention that and they will take care of it. Â I wish they were open a little earlier and am often surprised how few customers there are.
I work right down the street so Im in there often.
This place is just down the block from my apartment, so the guy and I are pretty regular in our trips here.
Food's pretty good. I've never had anything I don't like (and we've had just about it all). The specials are great too, if you go on the day that "your" burger is on special ($8.50). It's still worth it, though.
I love that it doesn't get insanly crowded on the weekends. There's usually a pretty decent group of people that just want to hang out and enjoy themselves. The bartenders are all pretty great and the music selection has DEFINITELY gotten better than it was.
A good local bar that we'll keep going back to.
I came here on a Saturday night and this place was totally dead. There were about two people at the bar and two other customers arrived while we were dining.
The service was very pleasant and friendly. The menu was pretty standard. Except for the wine and beer selection, which were rather limited. But that wasn't a big deal.
I ordered the California Avenue burger and I felt pretty gross after eating it. And I didn't even touch the fries. I like my burger med-rare but this was gooey in the middle. And the last bite included a piece of something foreign. I felt nauseated for the next 12 hours.
I shant be back.
This place was great!
Their Groupon Now $10 for $20 is what brought us there, in the first place. There was a lot of parking out front, very easy to get to, no problems there.
My boyfriend and I went on a Sunday afternoon, just about 30mins before the bears game, and the place was empty...which was fine with me! As we were eating a lot more people came thru the door, but overall it wasn't very busy, which was nice on a Sunday during the bears game. The place is kind of small, but not too small. It has an exposed brick wall and it was kept very clean and organized.
Our waitress was very friendly and engaging. We ordered the Hang Over Burger with the fried egg and bacon, it was AMAZING. One of the best burgers, we both ever had! We were impressed. We also ordered the buffalo chicken quesadillas for appetizer, which also were very delicious!
They had a few old school board games/trivia games and we took advantage and played a few of those, which made our afternoon pretty fun as we watched the start of the bears game.
We will definitely be back!
Good spot to meet people: if you're like me, late 20s; annoyed by certain elements of Wicker Park, but still appreciate a bar that showcases local artists. I've never not enjoyed a DJ here. $1 beer on Wed; $2.50 beer on Saturdays. (There's actually an awesome special every night of the week). Caveat #1: this is still not a "beer drinker's bar" - very limited selection, with NO beers on tap. Saving Grace: Cocktails are VERY strong - and I almost never say this. There's lots of tables; the food looks/smells intoxicating, but I've never had it. I know they hand-cut their fries, as everyone SHOULD do. Super friendly, attentive staff. Caveat #2: it's sketchy at night, esp if you walk out toward Cortez St - and esp if female. You'll want to call ahead for a cab. (I'm not a prude - just not stupid).
All in all, I like what Div is doing; just wish they'd been more inventive with the name - 'Division Street Bar & Grill' is too generic to do justice. PS: Their $10 card minimum is not strictly enforced - and this is not coming from a regular.
A welcome and overdue alternative to the usually pretentious and over-priced Wicker Park scene. The burgers are awesome -- all of their meat and produce are from local suppliers, and you can taste the freshness. No draft beer, but good selection of bottles. The service is awesome. Hip hop and indie music plays, bt not too loud where you can't have a conversation.  TV for game watching  (for the big ones). Art gallery and very comfortable seating. The owner, Diana, is a doll. Very friendly and engaging. Her brother, Danny, I think, is also very nice. You need to patronize this bar not only for the great food and drink, but here is a woman who is working hard and who really deserves the business!
I know that some businesses in Humboldt Park have not welcomed whites with much gusto in the past, but this place (and others, like Coco and Nellie's, for that matter) are different. Very cool place. I live in the neighborhood, have been treated with indifference and hostility on the Boricua for years, and I'm glad to see businesses like this that welcome everyone. I love this place. Â They have trivia games every Sunday too. Bottom line: Â Nice people, great service, great food, great drink menu, and also kid friendly (during appropriate kid hours, of course!)
One of the best burger and beer places in West Town!
Stopped in here with some friends.
It was late and during the week.
We ordered some mini burgers and a basket of fries.... The food was good. I thought the fries were extra good.
The drinks were good and well-made.
The DJ was sprawled out on the couch against the wall....he actually scared me when I walked by to go to the restroom.
The bartender was super attentive and did a really good job at checking in with us.
Bike parking out front.
Solid burgers and fries. Â You can taste the freshness in the meat, I liked that on the night we tried them out we could see the chef molding the patties. Â You know, fresh rather than frozen or sitting is an always plus. Â I was surprised how tasty the mini burgers were and to think about it I don't think I've had a better one. Â You can choose the cheese topping and each come with standard toppings which suit the mini. Â The fries were fresh and fried in new oil. Â Crispy, salted with I would guess coarse or rock salt and they were perfect.
On the night we stopped in, I can't remember if music played in the background. Â Only few people were in the bar and the DJ was actually laying on the couch on the Internet. Â A random Tuesday night and it was DEAD. Â Seeing other reviews, I wish we'd have stopped in on a busier night. Â Maybe a next time.
Heavy handed bartender with our rummy cocktails. Â
Benefits: Â Decent weekly specials. Â PBR fans would dig their special on tall boys. (yuck.) Good option for burgers and fries. Â Ease to find parking.
Great place! Wonderful art and a good atmosphere.
The Milwaukee Chicken sandwich was great and the onion rings I subbed for the fries were good too.
My Bf got a big med-rare burger. Cooked to temp and probably the best(hand cut) fries I have had in a long time.
Good beers, even tho they are all bottled, and good music playing.
We will be back.
I want to give this place five stars. Â I think the only reason I can't is because it's walking distance from my house but their menu is a little sparse. Â I wish they'd add a few more options cause I'm going to end up a regular there. Â They have pretty awesome drink specials and there's nothing I like more than good drink specials that are close enough that if need be I could crawl home from. Â The burgers are all right... they're not the best I've ever had but they're good. Â This last time we also ordered the Garbage Salad to split and it was great. Â We wanted it like an appetizer but after waiting for about a half hour they finally brought it out and it was followed five minutes later by the burgers. Â I think maybe she forgot that we wanted it early. Â Ah, well... there are worse things in life.
Review Source:Stopped in on a Thursday evening because the fiancé wanted a burger. The place looks so dark from the street but when you get inside it's bright and roomy. The burgers are very large or at least getting an appetizer before the burger is a waste since it will be challenging to finish your meal. The burger was a tad over cooked and i would have liked it after my appetizer instead of the same time but its not that big of a deal.  The beer selection is bottle only no taps which is odd but overall I thought the place was good. Not sure how soon I will be Back but I am sure eventually I will try it again.
Review Source:Division Street Bar & Grill has fantastic burgers. They're huge, perfectly cooked, and come with excellent fresh-cut fries. I ordered the Chicago Ave. burger, which was served with smoked gouda cheese, bacon, roasted red peppers, and spicy giardiniera. I'd never have considered this combination on a burger, but it worked really well, and my bet is that the rest of the menu is equally good. The service was efficient, friendly, and attentive. I'll definitely be back here for the food, and the fact that they have a wide range of nightly food and drink specials is a strong incentive to visit during the week.
On the other hand, this place needs some work. The beer list is extremely limited and they have nothing on tap. That's kind of a major problem. As for their wine selection, you can choose either red or white...I have no idea what else to say about that, and the menu offers no enlightenment on the subject.
Secondly, the place is freezing cold. I'd dropped by here just to get something to eat, but would have been entirely open to hanging out for a while and staying out of the awful winter temperatures while getting a few more drinks. Unfortunately, my feet never warmed up while I was inside, and I ended up putting on my coat about halfway through my meal. There was some kind of space heater in the front seating area, but it's almost as if that was the only source of warmth in the entire bar. Not good.
I hope this bar succeeds, and perhaps I was just here on an off night, but really, if it's 10 pm on a Friday and only about 8 people (including the staff) are hanging out, there's a problem. I live nearby, however, and will certainly do my best to support the place. It's a good addition to the neighborhood and definitely worth repeat visits for the weeknight (and weekend) specials.
My boyfriend and I were going to a "house party" that his buddy was mixing at, and we were pretty early. We didn't have any details or idea of what was going on. Just show up at 2525 W Division St. We drove up and walked into the bar because there was no inclination of entering or being welcome into the apartments upstairs.
Good thing we did! We sat down and was welcomed with a big bottle of Fat Tire and Stella. The bartender was really sweet and talkative, for a Saturday night the place was pretty dead, then again the location isn't where you would expect such a nice place like that and the weather was all rainy, killer snowy. I guess it was DJ night and the dj was playing hip hop songs that took me back to ten years ago. The decor was intimate, cozy, warm and they had a bookshelf of games to pass the time. I looked up above the bar and was proud to see they even had a plaque with the Filipino & Puerto Rican flags up. I'm never against supporting my people any chance I can get.
Anyways we played a few rounds of Jenga, while we waited for what I believe was a California burger: with lettuce, tomato, onions, avocado, pico de gallo and chiuahua cheese. They kindly split the burger up for us and it was perfect, juicy and oh so delicious. Unfortunately, I can never finish a burger so I gave the rest to my boyfriend. Then again, I stuffed my face with those fresh cottage fries. They have some pretty good specials during the week, so I wouldn't mind hitting up that place again.
I probably would never have ventured into Division Street Bar & Grill had our friend Dave not asked us to celebrate his birthday there last night. It turns out I am very glad we went. It was trivia night and we had a great time. The food was good, hearty bar food, though the nachos used liquid cheese instead of real shredded cheese which I prefer. The beer list could use some work. We are fortunate to live in a place it's easy to get real micro-brews, so why not support them?
Our waitress Lexi, I believe, was a peach. She was very sweet and navigated the tables like a pro, though she is apparently new to serving. The bill at the end of the night was pricier than I would have guessed for 3 people's bar food and drinks, but we were taking our buddy out, so that was fine. I probably won't end up a weekly regular here, but I definitely plan to hit up the trivia night (Sunday) at least once a month or so.
First off, they closed in the kitchen, so the place doesn't smell like burgers all the time, like it used to.....NICE!
I guess I just love how friendly they are here, they remember you and they are looking to make the neighborhood a more live-able and friendly one! Â
Their burgers are as good as ever too!!! Â
I will wait in anticipation for beer on tap, but for now, its fine in cans or bottles!
Bring on more of these burgers, please!
I went to Division Street Bar and Grill tonight for the first time. I'll definitely be back, and I will take more friends! This restaurant and bar has a wonderful space in the front and a cozy, more intimate space in the back if you want a more private feel. The food is excellent, the bartender is really friendly, and the music is fantastic.
Put this place on your must try list. You won't be disappointed.
I came in for a quick bite. I ordered the nachos, and they were wholly disappointing. They came with the kind of drippy nacho cheese you would find at Seven Eleven, except that it was served cold. The guacamole was not that tasty either, and the nachos did not come with jalapenos! At least the bloody mary's were spicy. The bar does not have any draft beers but the bartender was friendly.
Review Source:I am so happy that Division Street Bar and Grill finally opened. Â I would pass by the "opening soon" sign for some time and kept thinking, "man.... when will this place open?" Â It would be the perfect place to have in this area. Â
No more waiting, they've been open for almost a year now and I couldn't be happier. Â
My first time in the bar was a Saturday night, I had gone with my girlfriend a little after 8pm. Â We went in and ordered a few drinks and were greeted to a crowd of about ten or 12 patrons. Â The music was as I expected, a mix of hip hop and indie. Â I think of myself as not being the most well versed in musical variety, so I asked the girl behind the bar who educated us on what was playing - helpful staff and good music - definitely a plus. Â Â
We had eaten earlier in the day, so we ordered something small to have with our drinks - the hummus appetizer (which came with veggies and warm pita bread) and the mini burgers. Â Both were good, especially the mini burgers. Â (days later, I returned to eat here while I was at work and ordered a burger - their burgers really are tasty) Â My girlfriend is a bit more picky when it comes to bar food, yet she really liked the hummus and mini burgers. Â I agreed, and not just because my girlfriend liked it - it was a good showing for bar food. Â
They have a large variety of beers, both macro and micro brews, all at competitive prices. Â Let's just say the Miller Lites are not $6 each like they would be further East on Division. Â A local place at a local price. Â If you were wondering, the bar staff does know how to make quality martinis and even were able to pull of a negroni, a favorite of mine from Florence, Italy. Â When we finally took off around midnight, the number of patrons at the bar had tripled and the place was humming. Â
Overall, I was very happy with Division Street Bar and Grill. Â The staff was great and even called us a cab when we asked (even though they were very busy with drink orders). Â I would highly recommend this bar if you live in the area or if you want to get away from the craziness of Division and Damen - its only a few blocks West.
Glad this place is on Division. It is nice to have a go to spot nearby.
I like the feeling overall. Cozy. Great looking bar and space. Lots of cool local art.
The rest of my crew was raving about the burgers. Lots of great options there.
A few notes:
1. The hoods are awful if they are in use. Everyone reeked of oil when we left.
2. More booths in the front would optimize the space and make it cozier.
3. The salad dressing was awful. The Cilantro Lime Vin tasted like lime-scented cleaner. Try making a few dressers really well in house. The dressing really makes the salad. The salad looked awesome minus the dressing.
4. Make the veggie burgers in house! The pre-made ones are nasty.
Hope this place just keeps getting better because I am glad they are here.
The burgers and chicken sandwiches are scrummy! I prefer the Chicago Ave(chiuahua cheese, gauc, pico de gallo) or Milwaukee style(gouda & bacon). They come with really tasty cottage style fries that will make  your mouth happy :D
A couple things though... I wish they had an answering machine so I could leave them this message. For the love of air, please turn on the exhaust fans in your kitchen. Or open a window? Something!
The smell of cooking oil is so thick I was choking on it. I could only tolerate it for my meal and one beer.
The whole walk home, I could smell oil all over myself and my friends. I am taking my coat to a dry cleaners today because the smell is emanating from it.
I had someone at work smell my coat and they wrinkled their nose and backed off, asking if someone had thrown french fry oil at me. Terrible.
Also, the bbq sauce is... weird. Not sure if its some homemade mesquite or something but I have never tasted something like that before, or seen such a strange hue of orange.
The people that work there are really friendly & Â my friends and I got some sweet treatment when they opened up in our neighborhood. There's was a live dj bopping around Friday night and she did a good job. Â The waitress was cute and friendly, but asked me how I wanted my chicken done. That was a first!
Division Street Bar & Grill definitely has potential, but there are a few key areas that need work.
We decided to check this place out on a dreary, rainy Thursday evening around 7:30 PM. The exterior is very dark and sleek, aside from the seemingly requisite neon beer signs. Inside, the building is long and narrow, with exposed brick along one wall and others painted orange and yellow. Various paintings for sale hang along one wall. The dining area is in the front, open to the bar but comfortably spaced. There weren't more than a dozen people inside, most of whom were at the bar.
The food menu is standard bar fare (wings, quesadillas, nachos, etc.), and you can build your own burger/chicken sandwich/turkey burger using any of the toppings used on their "specialty" sandwiches if none of those suit you. Most items ran between $8-15 each. There isn't a cocktail menu and there are no beers on draft. They offer a couple of desserts, which I forgot (except for the one we had).
We started with drinks - my boyfriend got a beer (in a bottle, of course!) and I requested a very common mixed drink, which was very poorly made (it was undrinkable). I ordered a soda and was happy with that.
We ordered chicken quesadillas for our appetizer, which was big and delicious. The salsa was excellent, very fresh and light, and the guacamole was good too, although it could have been a bit more spicy and flavorful in general.
Our main dishes came out literally minutes after our appetizer, so unfortunately we felt a little rushed. My boyfriend ordered a "Milwaukee Ave." burger, which came with guacamole, pico de gallo, and cheese. He was happy with it, and says he would order it again. My chicken sandwich came with buffalo sauce, bacon and tomato. The chicken was very juicy, and the tomatoes on my sandwich were rich in color and flavor. The buffalo sauce was definitely strong and on the spicy side and applied liberally, which was in contrast to the very skimpy, limp, nearly absent bacon (which was quite pricey!). Both of our sandwiches came with the most divine "fries", which are more like round-cut steak fries in texture. They were perfectly salted and crispy, and I definitely have not had these anywhere else.
My boyfriend finished before me, and while picking up his dish our waitress asked us what we wanted for dessert, even though I was still in the middle of eating! I'm not sure if she wanted to close up early or something, but I thought this was a little strange and inappropriate. But, since we wanted to give them a fair try, we ordered a brownie sundae of sorts, which was good but nothing you can't get somewhere else.
Some constructive criticism:
1. The volume of their music and/or TVs is entirely too high. At points it was actually intolerable and uncomfortable.
2. Please get a cocktail menu, even if it's just reminders of old favorites or a list of house specialties. List your available beers, too.
3. There were candles on each table, so why not light them?
4. The prices are too high, ESPECIALLY the alcohol. I would strongly suggest hiring an experienced bartender.
Overall - The food was good, the drinks were not, the employees were friendly, and the service was adequate. Since they are within walking distance, we will definitely be giving this place another try in a few months.
This is a great "west of western" place!!! We live at california and division and usually hike to division and damen hot spots, but have been anxiously awaiting bar owners to venture past the Puerto Rican flags. Great liquor selection...simple decor. Had the nachos and they were satisfying and the burgers looked great. A nice chill spot to grab a drink or come with a group and belly up. We will be returning again and again.
Review Source:I'm gonna give this place another chance as it was a cold sunday night, but for the most part i was not impressed.
Menu is predictable, food is good, service good. Â I would like to give a special shout out to the french fries, yummy.
No beers on tap, is sort of a problem for a bar and grill in my opinion. If you enjoy a draft on occasion, this is not the place for you. Â There were only about 4 other patrons in the whole place watching the bears game, you would think there would be more. The TVs were loud, I mean really too loud for only have 8 people in the bar. Â
It just didn't really have anything special going on. Â Like I said, i think I need to give it another chance. Â I will be sure to edit or upate my review when I do.
Yay, a bar that doesn't make me walk the deserted high school/hospital strip of division.
I didn't get any food, but friends did. Â The burgers were good and the chicken wings huge. Â We even joked that you can tell this place is new because they haven't figured out where to buy cheap wings from yet.
No beers on tap, but about a dozen in bottles. Â Big windows in the front, lots of tables and some lounge couches in the back. Â We were there on a Sunday so got great service.
I would give this five stars except that it is pretty generic and I smelled a little like the kitchen when we left (we were sitting by it). Â I'm excited to have this just in time for winter when it's too cold to look for a cab or walk to the other side of western.
I wasn't going to review this place because I didn't have anything different to say than FTR all-star, Ryan L, but then I started reading a yelp review about snacks and I got really hungry and I remembered back to Division Street Bar and Grill's snack mix and thought how festive it was, almost bordering on the lines of a "party" mix, and decided to give this place 6 stars, but yelp only allows 5, so that brought the average star rating to four, which is fine, because who's to say it doesn't deserve 4?
Review Source:I was able to check this place out over the weekend. New to the Humboldt Park scene, it's still searching for its identity. Disregarding the lack of creativity in naming this place, I think it has a good shot for success. Â
Walking in, i noticed the decor was pretty sleek. Â Didn't see any plasmas, so i guess it's going for more of a lounge feel. Â The bar is sharp and in the middle of the room, while the quaint tables and chairs were nice. Â It didn't feel crowded in there.
We got there after the kitchen was closed but my sources tell me the burgers are quite good. Â Next time in i will have to try one of those bad boys. Â The drinks were strong, and the staff couldn't have been friendlier, frequently checking on our group. Â We got some snack mix at the end that was devoured.
With the DJ spinning, i felt it was more of a lounge atmosphere, but after awhile the music progressively got louder and louder. Â And it became all salsa music. Â I like salsa, but i was not inebriated enough to get up and dance. I didn't mind the decibel level, it was just shockingly loud compared to before. Â The bar had the windows open, so when we left i could hear the music from very far away. Â My ears were ringing when we left.
I will be back to try the burgers and see what type of place this becomes. Â I think it has a decent chance to do well.
