   Best cocktails in Wrigleyville and north side. The bartenders allows deliver tasty drinks. Only weak spot is their food is average. But this place is definitely recommended.

   Pro's: Service was top tier and attentive. The ox ragu was phenomenal however that focaccia bread service hit the spot. Con: The Salmon came out ice cold, like not even room temp and lacked all flavor however it was cooked to perfection which confused us both. Overall I would go back again.

   Hi Aaron! Thank you so much for taking the time to reach out. We are delighted that you enjoyed the food and service, however cold salmon is not up to our standards, and you deserve our apologies. I have discussed the situation with our culinary team, who is dedicated to presenting the very best. The Salmon dish has just recently changed to a Roasted Trout and I would love to invite you back to enjoy the new fish dish or anything else that you might find delicious. Please don't hesitate to reach out if we can make a reservation for you to join us again in the future. Best, Sarah General Manager

   Mordecai is such a lovely restaurant, with a beautiful view of Gallagher Way. The restaurant was empty on the night we were there, so we had very good service from our wait staff. Unfortunately, the kitchen seemed to be having problems. My salmon was undercooked and couscous was cold. I sent it back and it came a second time somewhat warm but not hot, so I ate it. I like salmon more cooked, but I was not asked about this. The others in our party were satisfied with chicken and also with the risotto, so it was only me.

   40 minute wait to get our drinks and then the server forgot my husband's meal. My meal was good but very overpriced.

   Really enjoyed our first experience! Great service, great meals, cozy yet modern aesthetic, and prices were reasonable! Had the salmon, burger (with beef fat fries!), fried ravioli and apple fritters. All delicious! We’ll definitely be back.

   This restaurant is doing everything right. The food was delicious! I had the pear salad with chicken, and my husband had Oxtail rigatoni. The wine list is now better; of course, they had a lot of fun mixed drinks and rare spirits. The bartender was knowledgeable.

   Main bartender was unfriendly to the host but the guy bartender that stepped in was incredible. The food is mediocre and the cocktails are as well. Great space and ambiance. Wish the food and drinks were better.

   Great food at a reasonably priced restaurant! The service was fantastic and there were so many options from the cocktail bar. Try the Mordecai Burger and the Cracker Jack cheesecake

    The food was delicious but had some of the best service my girlfriend and I have ever had at a restaurant. Brandon was warm and kind and very helpful in wine selection and meal ideas! Beautiful ambiance and the music selection was fantastic!
