Best Nightlife in Alsip

"The coffeehouse-meets-restaurant concept, Beatrix, is known for healthy meets delicious menu specials, fresh-squeezed juices and an appealing coffee and pastry counter. Launch lunch with a freshly squeezed juice (Power Greens or a Blueberry Basil Smash sound good); and if you're going light, try a snack of hummus, tuna crudo, Kung Pao cauliflower; or go all out with luscious glazed salmon; chicken meatballs; warm pot roast sandwich; giant chopped salad; poke bowl, or a burger. There are gluten-free items, cocktails and an incredible coffee and dessert menu, too."

"You’ll struggle to find a more reliable brunch spot than Beatrix. With multiple locations around the city, the friendly chain of cozy cafés offers fresh-squeezed juices, brunch cocktails, and an outstanding breakfast menu. The all-day eatery focuses on healthy and affordable options with anything from light & fluffy lemon pancakes to steak chimichurri & eggs."

"I know this was on my list of Favorite Healthy Spots too – but it’s just so good!. All of their coffee drinks are awesome, but I especially love their matcha (both hot and cold) because it’s not too sweet!. They also have fresh juices, spicy Bloody Marys, and other fun brunch cocktails!"

"Peking duck served three ways and carved tableside, $30 for a meal for four is virtually unheard of in this day and age. Just remember you must preorder at least 24 hours in advance. Also Try: Duck Duck Goat, literally anywhere in Chinatown"

"Featured on Food Network, Sun Wah BBQ is home to some of Chicago's most delicious Hong Kong-style BBQ dishes. Their most famous off-menu course is the beautifully roasted Beijing Duck which is brought to your table and expertly carved."

"Feed your entire family a duck dinner for $40, complete with duck soup, stir fried greens with duck and pillowy baos to fill with crispy skin and juicy meat. Sun Wah BBQ, 5039 N. Broadway St., 773-769-1254, sunwahbbq.com"

"West LoopThis long-revered Mediterranean-influenced fixture from One Off Hospitality has held it down as one of the area’s go-to date night spots since opening its minimalist doors back in 2003, well before many of us could even define romance. And not much has changed -- the wine list is still spectacular, the chorizo-stuffed medjool dates are still iconic, and a reservation for the intimate front patio is still highly coveted."

"There are now two Avecs - the original in the West Loop, and a newer (much larger) River North location. They have almost identical menus, but the classic Avec is our favorite, mainly because we’ve had so many incredible meals there. The Mediterranean small plates here are consistently delicious, so order whatever sounds good to you."

"True to its name, the views at VU are epic from 22 stories above street level. Once you've secured a seat, order from a selection of classic cocktails (like the gin-based Last Word or the refreshing cherry mule) before ordering a few bites for the table. With three bars and two patios spread across 13,000 square feet, there's plenty of room to spread out and relax in the sun."

"Rooftop brunch Chicago at VU Rooftop - Photo: www.vurooftop.com/. Opened in 2018, VU Rooftop is a spacious and modern indoor / outdoor lounge, set high above he bustling McCormick Place. Offering two rooftop terraces, here you can enjoy panoramic views over both the Chicago skyline and Lake Michigan."

"California meets Chicago at Ballast Point, equipped with an on-site brewing room. Nearly 40 beers are available on tap – from fruity and spicy iterations to rich and malty ones – which should be consumed on the cavernous rooftop with space for over a hundred people. You can fill a growler to take away or stick around and nibble on doughy, salt-crusted pretzels."

"Anchoring a whole new Wrigleyville is the Hotel Zachary (named after the original architect of Wrigley Field, Zachary Taylor Davis) which has a number of outdoor spaces and restaurants including Big Star, Mordecai, and the bar at Hotel Zachary. Of course, just across the street is not only Wrigley Field itself, but also the new Gallagher Way Park with events like free concerts, yoga, and a farmer’s market."

"To say the menu at Dolo is expansive would be an understatement. The chic Chinatown restaurant serves dozens of dim sum treats, including creamy egg tarts, bitter melon custard cakes, tender pork shumai, bright-green durian pancakes and fluffy pork buns. But that's just scraping the surface on what Dolo has to offer: A novel-sized menu is packed with glossy photos of seafood by the pound, spicy jellyfish, Taiwanese-style shrimp, mango beef tenderloin and stir-fried lo mein—among many other specialty dishes."

"If you’re searching for the best Chinese food in Chicago, Dolo is one of the only restaurants offering a full bar with beer, wine, and cocktails. They also have a gorgeous outdoor patio that’s a perfect spot to enjoy gourmet Dim Sum, bento boxes, dumplings, steamed buns, and more."

"Mexican food plus hand-crafted beer equals a powerful and tasty combination. That is just what you will get when you pay a visit to the Cruz Blanca Brewery and Taquerìa. Start your meal with, of course, the Chips & Salsa."

"A southside brewery that edges so far down, it’s hardly considered urban territory, Open Outcry is an unexpected oasis in this part of the city, encouraging you to quench your thirst in their garage-style taproom. Featuring a flight inspired by the colors of the original Rainbow Cone—Palmer House IPA, Strawberry Imperial Stout, Orange Milkshake IPA, Pistachio Brown Ale—Open Outcry promises that you can’t go wrong with any of their signature brews. And their blissful beer garden with yellow accents is the go-to lounge for the summer!"

"Motor Row Brewery is located in Chicago’s historic Motor Row neighborhood|Courtesy of Motor Row Brewery. Frank Lassandrello, the head brewer of Motor Row, learned the tricks of his trade while at college in Vermont, creating home brews with his roommate. It wasn’t until 2007 that Lassandrello partnered with his son and purchased a space in Chicago’s historic Motor Row neighborhood to start his own legitimate brewery."

"Motor Row Brewing is a microbrewery with a tasting room and taproom. It produces and serves seasonal beers. As it is located in the neighborhood of automobile manufacturers and dealers, their name is conceived."

"Michigan Ave. (between 24th and 23rd streets), the brewery is the highest-rated brewery in Chicago, boasting 4.5 stars out of 80 reviews on Yelp."
