Ryan's Public House

Really pleased to have this place so near to home. Food is great, space is cozy and comfortable. I love that it has a fireplace, and try to go at off hours, to insure a seat next to it.
Kid friendly enough for my teens to enjoy, too, we always have a great time dining here.
Never noticed the service being slow, but maybe thats because we are never in a hurry when we come in to sit, eat and talk. It's a homey place that way. And why we come back.

Visited tonight with wife after reading reviews on yelp. It exceeded our expectations. I had chicken wings which were cooked crispy but not over done. Wing sauce could have been spicier and more plentiful, but nonetheless better than what you normally find in Chicago metro. Wife had fish tacos and loved them. Corn relish and pico exceeded expectations, we will return!

The food is always great.  Like John B. said, the service was excellent.  Bartenders & waitresses are friendly, and even though they were pretty busy, the wait was not bad.
