You won't feel out of place in jeans and a baseball cap, but the crowd is generally dressed to impress. South Loop residents have turned this into a neighborhood hangout. Tantrum announces itself with a kaleidoscope-like door. The extensive list, developed and tested by the bar staff, includes names like Monkey Martini, Butterscotch, Starburst, Filthy Martini, Born Again Virgin, and of course, the signature Tantrum Martini. Only, Trattoria Caterina and others.
Cabs are plentiful.
