Wicker Park
Diner
Wood-paneled walls and a turntable playing Chicago blues set the scene for executive chef/partner Paul Kahan’s throwback '60s- and '70s-inspired diner, which features breakfast, upscale takes on Southern and Mexican comfort foods, an array of cocktails, and house-made ice cream. Seating is entirely counter space and very limited, but with more elbow room than the shoulder-to-shoulder sister restaurant next door, Big Star.
