We had such a great time at this bar that we ended up going twice during our short vacation! Both nights featured live music with a DJ, which gave the place a fun and energetic vibe without being overwhelming. The food really impressed us—everything was made fresh, which is rare to find at a bar. Drinks were solid and strong, with a great selection of martinis (their specialty), and each one we tried was spot on. Our waiter—who I’m pretty sure is also the owner—was incredibly nice and down to earth. You can tell he genuinely cares about the place and wants every customer to have a great experience. That personal touch really made a difference. Highly recommend stopping by if you're in the area!

Historic building in the little downtown area, wonderful owner shared all about the menu. The burger was amazing but the homemade onions rings were even better! The wings were made fresh not frozen and were some of the bestvwe have ever had. We brought our newly graduated Sailor in the following day for his first post boot camp meal. He loved it!

I've been here twice with my family and both times were well worth it. If you're looking for a laid-back, chill place to eat and drink, this is the spot. We were greeted with a smile as soon as we walked in and felt very welcomed. The customer service was great. Our food came out quickly and it was delicious! The owner wasn't lying when he said everything is homemade. It was fresh and full of flavor. I highly recommend Lucky Scottie!

This restaurant truly felt like a home away from home. Being in an unfamiliar city like Chicago, especially since my family and I are from Philly, we were looking for a place that brought us comfortability and this was it. From the moment we walked in, we could feel the warmth and love in the atmosphere. The food was absolutely incredible you could truly taste the authenticity and care in every bite. We loved it so much, we came back twice during our three-day stay for my cousins Navy graduation. I’m so grateful we got to experience such a welcoming and special place. I genuinely hope to return one day. - love from Philly

Myself, my daughter, & my mom came here after my daughter’s military graduation. The food was EXCELLENT. Not only that, the owner was so nice & made sure we had everything we needed. Next visit we definitely will be sure to stop in & try something else on the menu.

First night visiting Illinois and arrived at the restaurant with my family of 7 without realizing 1. it was also a bar and 2. they were going to close the kitchen in about 15 minutes. Despite this, the waitress and chef were kindly able to accommodate us. The food we were served was delicious. Even though we weren't in a family restaurant and arrived so late, we were treated graciously. I didn't try the drinks, but if they're on par with everything else, I'm sure they're great! I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a bite to eat, nice staff and a good vibe.
