The house wines are excellent, but also be sure to ask what others are available. There are also nightly specials such as pitchers of vodka lemonade and cosmopolitans. There are plenty of late-nigh diners and a convenience store located no farther than a block away on Halsted Street. The lack of parking in the neighborhood is enough to bring you to tears. Think about public transportation or a taxi before driving, especially in the summer months.
