    Located in terminal A at Midway Airport in Chicago. They offer pub food in large sizes. We ordered the signature Holy Cow burger which was cooked to order, hot and juicy and topped with bacon, Harry Caray sauce plus the regular toppings like cheese, lettuce, tomato and onion. Very good and big enough for two to share. Served with your choice of sweet potato fries, chips or salad. Recommended. The place is clean, about 20 stools, TV monitors showing games.

    Still thinking about how unexpectedly amazing this burger was at MDW. I ordered it medium rare and it came out perfectly cooked, truly pink in the center, juicy, and full of flavor. Not that gray "airport medium" you usually get, but an actual proper medium rare. The meat was tender, well seasoned, and cooked evenly all the way through, and the bun held up without overpowering the burger. What really took this experience over the top, though, was the staff. Every single person was so kind and kept checking in, making sure everything was perfect. It almost felt weird how good the service was for an airport spot. Between the food and the hospitality, this was easily one of the best airport dining experiences I've ever had and honestly better than a lot of non-airport restaurants.

    I tried Harry Caray's while on a layover in the Midway airport. I chose this place based on reviews of the various options in the airport and this one had the best reviews. It was good as far as airport restaurants go. I ordered the Fish & Chips. I replaced the French fries and ordered sweet potato fries instead. The fish was your basic cod with a few packets of tartar. The sweet potato fries were a little mushy for my liking. I prefer fries a little more crispy. They don't have a special dipping sauce for the sweet potato fries, so the waitress gave me honey mustard which worked. The server was very attentive and the restaurant was in the middle of concourse A with very active surrounding, great for people watching.

    Food in the airport isn't usually that great but I was pleasantly surprised to find Harry Caray's right outside of my gate. Since my flight was delayed for an hour, I had time to sit and enjoy dinner. I ordered the Holy Cow burger which was delicious. The fries were great as well, hot and crispy. The server was friendly and attentive. Sitting at the bar, I saw a lot of other dishes come out from the kitchen and they each looked delicious. Definitely recommend if you're in Midway.

    Continued from previous photo also ice well.

    Ambience is good as there's an enclosed bar adorned by tv screens everywhere giving that sports bar vibe. The bartender/servers are nice and helpful. The food is packed with sodium and prepackaged but that's what's expected given the environment. The challenge is the staff doesn't wash their hands before preparing a drink or serving food after touching germy towels to wipe down the bar, workstation, utensils, their hair or clothing. Additionally the drink well is highly corroded and should be repaired or replaced. Based on that alone, I can only imagine the ice machine being full of mold and dirty water filters. I travel through this airport at least twice biweekly when traveling for business. This used to be my favorite spot. As of last week, I gave up on things changing. The employees have to see this mess and realize this is unhealthy for the patrons or anyone. I guess they don't believe in the "if you see something, say something" mentality. Or worst, management doesn't care. In either case it's a good time for health inspectors to surprise them with a good old visit! Until this is corrected and the area sanitized, steer clear.

    Yelpers are somewhat critical of most of the restaurant options at Midway. I picked Harry Caray's for a sit-down dinner because it was one of the best rated, and we did enjoy dinner here. It's simple, straightforward pub style food with nice beer offerings. Our server was very low-key but helpful. My hamburger, ordered medium, came out medium-well, but was otherwise delicious, as were both the fries and the sweet potato fries I stole from someone else at my table. It was nothing fancy, but it was very satisfying.

    I have stopped at Harry Caray's a number of times whenever I am flying out of Midway. This time I decided to try the Navy Pear and it was delish. For an airport bar, it's one of my faves. The staff are always nice, it's a great spot to people watch and have a drink before a flight, and there's charging ports the whole length so you can be fully charged when you get on the plane. Love sitting there watching the tv's, there's always a game on.

    The food was awful. But my expectations were low. But when someone says grilled cheese sandwich with Gruyère and smoked Gouda - you think rich melty goodness. NOPE. Try dried tiny slices of cheese on hard 9 grain toast filled with tomatoes- it was more of a tomato sandwich. See pic. And service gets 1 star. The food gets zero.

    I was wandering through the airport and found this quiet little spot. The waiter was helpful and efficient with his service. I had a nice grilled cheese sandwich and sweet potato fries. I really loved the fries (of course i did haha). It's worth a stop if your in the airport and need a quick bite to eat and drinks!!

    Chicken tenders and honey mustard
    Cristina P.

    Can't complain. Solid chicken tenders with honey mustard sauce and sweet potato fries. Good airport food is hard to come by, but it was solid bar food. Service was lackluster, but I don't expect much at the airport.

    Abigail P.

    For some airport food it's doable. Had the chicken tenders and fries $15 after tax I'm pretty sure. Food came out hot and a fresh but it was all frozen stuff obviously, and the chicken isn't "real" pull apart stuff. Just the fake chicken meal stuff. Atleast it wasn't $25 It did the job though

    Breakfast
    David M.

    Excellent service at the opening for breakfast. I believe we were first customers of the day. The coffee was tasty and the refills were plentiful. The food was a notch above standard airport fare. Prices were decent for airport dining. Was an excellent fill up prior to departure for home. Would absolutely repeat.

    Holy Cow Burger with sweet potato fries
    Sam S.

    For an airport restaurant this was pretty good! All the other places had bad reviews and this was the only one that had good ones and it did not disappoint! I got the Holy Cow burger with sweet potato fries and it was to die for. My burger came out medium rare just how I asked which was major points. They have a lot of bar seating and only a few tables but still pretty big place. The service was fast and friendly. Would definitely recommend!

Thick, creamy, smooth and rich. The cinnamon came through warm but not too strong, plus a little extra on top that hit your nose before the first sip. Sweet and it almost had this slight earthy note too... hard to explain but good. It even had that little design on top, like the ones they do on cappuccinos. Didn't expect that but it was cool. I finished it slow. Didn't wanna rush it. Just sat there taking small sips and enjoying it while it was still hot.

They also have a patio, and with the weather being nice, it was easy to just sit outside and relax for a while. I was honestly too hungry to spend much time deciding, so I just ordered one of the sourdough donut ball. It was exactly what I was hoping for. The outside had a light coating of sugar that gave it just the right amount of sweetness without being too much. Once I bit into it, the inside was soft, airy, and slightly chewy from the sourdough, which made it different from a regular donut. There was a subtle tang from the sourdough that balanced the sweetness really well, so it never felt overly sugary. It had a light crispness on the outside, then a warm, pillowy center that practically melted away with each bite. I finished it way faster than I expected. The only thing I forgot was ordering something to drink with it. Looking back, a good coffee would've made it even better. Still, I'd definitely stop by again the next time I'm in the area.

Set in an old warehouse that is now an art gallery event space and restaurant nestled in an older warehouse district in Bridgeport neighborhood of Chicago. Beautiful decor and laid out perfectly. The natural wood floors furniture ie tables chairs etc and iron work throughout sets the ambiance for old meets new. It works. The wide spacing between tables makes for a comfortable dining experience. So many folks come in to do their work and dine here. What a super addition to the neighborhood that less than a decade ago was essentially a street that was more a run down semi-truck alley. Great menu with neighborhood favorites leaning toward the old school Italian dishes. Sandwiches, soups, salads, and breakfasts just to name a few are all excellent. The pastries are insane and a must take home deal. I love the American Breakfast. Three eggs your way, thick diced America potatoes, thick cut bacon, and sourdough toast. Accompanied by what I believe to be home made jelly and for sure homemade gardiniera. Caruso's gardiniera actually. Diced into a relish unlike most standard gardiniera it's easier to eat with many dishes. Excellent flavor and just the right kick to it. FYI Dolce Arte also sells a to go line of homemade Caruso products from their gardiniera to past and past sauces and more. Yes, their coffee is really good too. Lavazza products I believe. The service is always on point. Casual but on point. Very friendly staff from diverse backgrounds. This is the place you bring people close to you, business lunches, meetings, formal ir informal, or like me, save it for myself as my own getaway spot. It's an artists dream and sets a positive time for any gathering.
