Lawrence's is Chicago's best kept secret. It is fabulous! I'm lucky enough to live near the joint, but even when I didn't, I'd make that trip for a lb of the popcorn shrimp. Yum! They have great dinner specials and not just seafood. Their fried chicken is excellent as well. I have never been to this place and it not be crowded...it is always an experience when you go to Lawrence's.

I'm a bit of a Sinatra freak, so I had to check this place out, and I wasn't at all disappointed! It's great! It has Rat Pack memorabilia covering the walls and Frank playing on the speakers. The ribs are great! Best barbecue sauce in the city! It is a small place and can be very crowded and noisy. It's a great little place to go on a Sunday night.

I love the Christkindlmarket! It's really underrated and never seems to be too crowded. It's a great way to get into that holiday spirit. Go buy a nice personalized ornament, have some strudel, then walk to go see the windows at Fields. Only after I visit the Chriskindlemarket and see the windows at Field's am I ready for Christmas!

I loved the show "Too Much Light Makes the Baby Go Blind." It was pretty off the wall and not at all what I was expecting...but then again I really wasn't sure what to expect from this place! You have to climb all through the building to get to the area where they put on the plays and roll a die to determine the price of admission. I especially loved the Hall of Presidents! They have interesting artistic interpretations of our first 42 presidents. My favorite featured JFK as an angel proclaiming "Ich Bien En Deity." After rolling the die, you get a goofy name tag with a strange name (I was Yee Haw and my companion was "I love Yee Haw"). The plays in the show range from intense emotional insights into the player's life to the ridiculous, like "April Showers." In this "play" they just sprayed the audience with water! It's a great show to check out!

I do still call it Comisky. Every year though, New Comisky keeps getting better and better. The FanDeck can be the best seat in the house! Now that they took off the super crazy high Upper Deck seats, there really isn't a bad seat in the house. And we all know that the team performs! I also love tailgating before the game! The community of Sox fans that gather are really fun and who can resist a mean game of beanbags?!? Also, I love the fireworks! I can't wait for tonight's show!

This joint is great! I love the building and how every floor has an entirely different setting. As you walk from floor to floor, it's like you are walking into different restaurants. The bar here is cute and cozy and offers up sake martinis, which are great! They also have a really nice garden dining area that I would recommend for those lovely Chicago summer nights.

This place has become our groups celebration place. It has the BEST ribs in the city. They are amazingly tender and the sauce is perfect. They also have excellent side dishes and appetizers and desserts. The place is smallish and quiet and perfect for a get together. They have a magician walking around too. I'm not sure what that is about, but he's pretty good. Not as good as the food though. Check this place out!

I wish I could give this place no stars! I have not one good thing to say about this place! I went spur of the moment after noticing my ever-growing amount of split-ends. The staff was unfriendly and did not speak to me the entire time. I tried to to make conversation too! Not only did they not speak to me, for all I know, they were talking about me, because they spoke to each other in another language the whole time. Besides that, the woman who cut my hair cut it unevenly. When I pointed it out to her, she cut the short side some more!! She didn't listen to what I wanted and just barely glanced at the pictures I had brought in to show her. I also had my eyebrows done and those turned out lopsided too! When I got home, I had to try to fix my own hair and draw in my eyebrows. DO NOT GO HERE!! It's horrible!

I love this place. Since I was a little girl, I have watched this great hot dog stand run by wonderful people grow from the small little hot dog cart to the White Sox eatery that it is today. The burgers and shakes are great! I love the Sox decorations all over the joint and the seats from the old ballpark. The O'Malley's are true Southsiders with true dedication to the World Champs, and great food! If you are heading to the game, definitely check this place out.

This little place in Wrigleyville has excellent sushi. It's fresh, prepared well, and served with a smile. The staff was so polite and kind, a nice change from a lot of other sushi joints I have gone to recently. They also have mochi ice cream, which for me, makes or breaks a sushi place. The prices weren't bad either. I would recommend it.
