    Heaven on earth. The staff, the drinks, the ambiance.. bury me at Dernos. Bury my children and their children there too.

    Derno's burger, i assembled it, it came deconstructed, no egg, no bacon, no fries.

    Not sure if there's another derno's on ubereats pretending to be them. Ordered delivery, got the derno's burger. I was looking forward to it but it came deconstructed, with no egg, no bacon, no fries, not even on a brioche bun, just regular old burger bun, the patty is 1/3 lb isntead of 1/2 lb as well Lol how can a restaurant mess up on a signature item with the name of the restaurant in it lol the only reason I can think of is someone is pretending to be them The famous/popular wings are way expensive for just some deep fried wings that's no where near worth the price they are charging for, just hard and bone dry. The come back sauce wasn't good either, it's good when mixed with hot sauce but alone it's just a 1 dimensional sweet sauce. I could have given them 1 star but it's my first time getting food there and it was delivery so, I'm just hoping some one else is pretending to be them on ubereats using their name, address, and number. Anyway, if it is a fake restaurant, maybe this could raise the owner's awareness

    I've lived down the street from Derno's for my entire 6 years in Chicago. I've been here probably 100 times that I can remember and 100 times that I forgot about. There's only been 1 time I've had a bad time here, and that was unrelated to the Derno's experience (I got in a fight with my mom because i told her a dog ran for mayor of some city in Wisconsin and she said a dog can't run for mayor and long story short things escalated and words were said that shouldn't have been said, again, not Derno's fault, it's the dog's fault for running for mayor). Other than that, the people at Derno's are always great, the security and bartenders are even better, Vince, even the bartender named Asshole if you can believe it. Honestly as long as no one brings up a dog who ran for mayor in Wisconsin you should be all set for a great time here. By the way I still don't speak to my mom because of that incident. But it's ok because I have Derno's.

    Fried Pickles

    I honestly had low expectations for the food here after reading some of the reviews. But it was a Saturday night around 12am and not many places still serve food. I walked it and it was pretty dead. I sat at the bar further back because it was empty (hear it gets crowded around 2am). Got a few drinks with my bf and friends. We ordered fried pickles, fries and medium wings. When the food came out I was surprised with how much food they give. The fried pickles were really good. The fries and wings as well. And the price for the food is bad either. I can definitely see myself coming back here for late night food.

    I came here with some friends for late night snacks and drinks. It's definitely the place to be if you want to stay out late. They keep the lights on, so it's not dark and dreary. The bartender was very efficient whenever we asked for anything. The food was eh. It's just drunk snacky food.

    Wings

    I picked up some Buffalo style wings from Derno's this week and they were just okay. Nothing special, but also not terrible. It would have been nice had they included some celery with the wings, but it only came with the sauce. The sauce was actually very good though.

They have a great patio that looks right onto the back of the scoreboard. I enjoyed two appetizers on my stop - the mozzarella sticks and chicken tenders. Both were unique from the cookie cutter bar options. The sticks were more breaded and crispy. The tenders were meaty and loved the sauces that came with it (mustard and BBQ). Service was great. My only complaint was the price. I don't like credit card surcharges (include it in the price) and $50 bucks for two apps and a couple of beers is a little over what I was hoping to spend.

    I was stoked to be able to make it to this iconic spot. Great ambiance and vibes in here…read more I had lunch here on a Friday while in town to catch the Bulls/Warriors game. It was the off-season for baseball so no Wrigley crowds, but still decently busy. We got a table promptly and had beers in front of us with the quickness. We shared some Wings which hit the spot. I had a bowl of Clam Chowder and their Mini Burgers. Both excellent. My friends got the Chicago Dog and Turkey Melt. Both liked their food. Great Menu selection of the usual Sports Bar favorites. Beers were Hazy IPAs and tasted great. Large selection of beer on tap. Service was on point and everything came. out quickly. We ubered out from Downtown to come here. It was a great experience and I will definitely return anytime I'm in Chicago.

The espresso martini was good, they have cocktail and both non-local and local beer options. The food looked really good but we didn't get any when we went. There are TVs all over. The patio is a great place to sit in the nice weather, and a grassy area to hang out, have kids play, or bring your dog(s). The bathroom was super cool, the back wall was a whole row of windows looking over the street and all the bars. Had a fun Nashville vibe!

The food comes out faster than a CTA bus not stopping for you, and it absolutely slaps. The wings are crispy enough to make a grown Chicagoan emotional, if you love great food and haven't stopped by, then you are missing out. Every TV has a game on, every beer is ice cold, and the vibes are aggressively Chicago -- loud, friendly, slightly unhinged, but in a "we're all in this together" way. You'll hear someone yelling at the refs, someone else arguing about the Cubs bullpen, and somehow it all feels like home. Output is the kind of place where you say "just one drink" and then suddenly it's three hours later, you've made five new friends, and you're ordering another round of wings because "it'd be rude not to." If you're near Wrigley and choose to eat somewhere else, that's on you. Output understood the assignment. My friends and I were pleasantly impressed by the service and the food especially the wings and waffle fries with the truffle aioli. Can't wait to go back.
