    I ended up stopping here on the way to a friend's and I am so glad I did! Service: 4/5 They were quick and made sure we enjoyed our food! Most people order to-go but I decided to sit in and eat which I highly recommend if it's pretty empty. The place is really small but the service was spectacular and the countertop was clean. My only issue was the cashier thought It was funny that I called it the Pastor. More in a condescending way but I was too hungry to even entertain it lol Food: 5/5 I ordered the taco Al Pastor. It was AMAZING. The meat was seasoned well, the onions and cilantro were fresh and they did not skimp out on the meat. I ate two tacos and was pretty full when I left. Ambiance: 4/5 Like I said the place is pretty small so definitely not for a large group if you want to sit and eat. Otherwise, order to-go you will not be disappointed

    Best gyro burgers and sandwiches in my area! They sell other things that I will have to try such as the chicken sandwiches and tacos.

    The bone in hot wings are really juicy! Their service could be a little faster, but I don't mind the wait if I know I'm getting fresh food

    Burgers were awesome. But Antonio was perfect, and went above and beyond making our dinner special…read more It was my first time in the restaurant and asked if the fries of hash was better, he recommended the fries but later surprised us with the hash comped. But that's not all-- he also came with a sunday "just to celebrate" it wasn't anyone's birthday or anniversary but we definitely were in the mood to celebrate after a night talking with him. Thanks for great service and great food, give Antonio a raise he is AWESOME

I got sat at the bar area where you can see all the action of the kitchen. The place is busy and full and I think it's awesome that it's an open kitchen cause you can see the magic happening. My waitress was super friendly and seems like she's used to everyone coming in to try the burger lol I heard her repeat the spiel many times. A single patty is 2 and a double is 3z I went with a double but honestly should have done a single. Food came out quick and the burger is super juicy. Fries were hot and delicious and even though it was the simplest burger I've ever had in my life I would say it's one of my top three favorite burgers I've ever had. Can't wait to come back.

    We recently took a large party from work for lunch at Bar Siena. Beautiful restaurant, fantastic…read moreservice, great food. There is indoor and outdoor seating and both are elegant. Outside, vibrant with hanging flowers and tasteful covers. Inside is bright with stark woods and black accents creating a classy but casual atmosphere. We had a table of 8, and our waiter was on point, making great suggestions, was charismatic and did a great job. Every time service came, there was help to expedite the service. We ordered the calamari and meatballs for appetizers. Both were exceptional. They went quickly. I couldn't get pictures. I had the focaccia with prosciutto which was a suggestion and it was the perfect blend of savory and sweet...fantastic. Likewise, my rigatoni was exceptional. Most of the table had their signature burger and they raved about it. If you're in Chicago looking for really solid Italian food, I highly recommend Bar Sienna.

The ambiance is cozy, intimate, and perfect for date night, but it's also a great place to pop in for a quick cocktail if you're out enjoying the city. Their handcrafted drinks were delicious, and I loved that they offer a full wine selection as well. We were able to grab seats at the bar with no problem, relax, and enjoy the atmosphere. If you're looking for a chic, laid-back place to connect over great drinks, I definitely recommend Bar Siena.
