Popped in here yesterday late afternoon having just flown in from Scotland and wanted a quite bite to eat. Really impressed great weekend atmosphere families and adults. Seated immediately despite being busy and service efficient. Buffalo wings and Nashville wings to die for, huge portions so we just stick to appetisers, local beer worth a try too. Yum great first impression of Chicago from us - thank you!

Just came back from a weeks trip to Chicago, and we went to Jake Melnicks 3 or 4 times!. The food was amazing.....in particular the buffalo wings, burgers and the brisket were all superb. For an experience we also tried the xxx wing which was tasty but (as expected!) soooo hot!. All in all, if you are in Chicago you MUST try this place!
