The moment we entered the restaurant, my husband and I were greeted by two friendly young women. I explained this was our first time eating at Windy City Social, and they shared which dishes were their favorites. My husband and I decided on fish tacos and had gelato for dessert. We look forward to returning and trying other items on the menu.

This place was very cute as it was well decorated for a great ambience, the food was fantastic, and the drinks were very tasty! It is a bit pricey but well worth it if you’re a food lover and don’t mind splurging on a good time with good people. Can’t wait to go back when it’s warm and they open the rooftop!!!
