Where are the Best French Fries in Chicago, Illinois?
Ricobenes is an essential stop. I always order the king size steak sandwich. Usually, I can only finish half. Save the rest for later (its great cold too). The fries are awesome. They are fresh cut with the skin on. The pizza is excellent. We order from here every other week, and there are many things on the menu, but I havn’t tried anything else besides the mentioned 3 because they are so good. This is not one to miss!Pros + Breaded steak, fries and pizzaCons – A little on the pricey side for fast food
This is a fun neighborhood bar/restaurant right on the border of Lakeview and Lincoln Park. They have great food, nightly drink specials including a hosted bar from 9-10 on Fridays, trivia on Wednesdays, and other fun activities.It’s a great place to meet and network with other thirty-somethings from LP/LV and Andy, Paul, and the rest of the staff will make you feel like a regular even if its your first time there.Since Don and Christy took over about six months ago they have added many improvements–seven flatscreens inside so you can catch all your favorite games, and a covered and heated outdoor patio with two big screens and weekly bags (cornhole/bagg-o) tournements (also a great place to have your next party with its own bar).The best combination of neighborhood bar, good food, familiar service and a friendly crowd in the area!Pros + Staff, food, drink specials, covered & heated beer gardenCons – somewhat limited seating inside
Hands down this is the place to go for thin crust pizza. The sauce is the most unique that I have ever tasted. This goes to show that they take the time to make the sauce and not just plop it out of a can. You gotta figure that they also use quality ingredients. I have been there many times and have tried different slices & never had a bad one. Their specialty is tomato & basil. So to all of my peeps out there, if you are craving some kick ass pizza, even late night, this is the place to get it. They also have great Italian beef.
