I've eagerly waited for months for this restaurant to open. My hometown is Chicago and recently I moved to Chandler. I saw this restaurant being built several months ago and was so excited to see a Chicago restaurant in downtown Chandler!
I am absolutely disappointed that I couldn't give 5 stars! I had visited over the weekend with a group of 8. A few of us don't eat beef or pork so there weren't many options. We were excited to try the deep dish pizza. They only have one option for deep dish which they can't remove the meat. So I had shared the chicken pasta with my husband. The dish was ok. Not something I would seek out for again. Something about the red sauce on the chicken didn't taste so good. Too sweet? The pasta may have been under cooked because it tasted a bit crunchy.
One of my friends had fries that had really no flavor. Another friend had the sweet potato fries and she was disappointed with those too. My husband and I ordered the garlic bread which was ok. It was weird though because another couple ordered the same thing and they had chunks of garlic cloves on it which they had to pick off. So there was also no consistency on how the food was being prepared.
I had ordered a O'hare International cocktail. It looked cool but tasted pretty strong and just not good. I had other people at the table try it and nobody liked it. I ordered a Moscow mule thinking they can't mess this up but that didn't taste good either. ( I think the bartender needs to try his drinks.)
I gave two stars because the restaurant ambience was really nice and unique! I loved it! There was a dj setting up when we left which I would love to come here if it mean't this was a place for dancing.
Overall, myself and the group we were with were pretty disappointed. I REALLY want to love this place. I could refer SO many people here too and I can see it being a great spot. Since they have been open only a couple weeks I hope that they revamp their menu and make some changes. I will wait a few months and try it again.
