We thoroughly enjoyed our food! Roasted garlic hummus was standard and fine, but the Coaches Pasta was super delicious, same for the 8oz sirloin and the steak sandwich. All 3 of us truly enjoyed our dinner! Bottom line, if you are staying at this cluster of airport-focused hotels, you won't go wrong dining at Coaches Sports Bar and Grill.

We came for dinner. It was our 1st time here. They have a parking lot and we were able to grab a…read morespot easily. Since we did not know the layout, we entered in the bar. We walked back out and found the door to the restaurant. Staff is warm and friendly and we were seated quickly. Our server was Robert and he was great! He gave his recommendations for which sides would go best with our meals and I felt they were spot on. They give complimentary bread and butter. It was warm and delicious. Hubby ordered the rib tips with fries, baked beans, and had the hot and mild barbecue sauce on the side. I ordered the 1/2 dark smoked chicken dinner with mac-n-cheese, spicy Cajun green beans, and spicy honey garlic barbecue sauce. I agree with Robert, that the sauce pairs very well with the chicken. The tips were tender and falling off the bone. He didn't care for the fries and loved the baked beans, even though they were a bit too spicy for him. My chicken was also very tender and I enjoyed the smokiness. The green beans had the right amount of spice although they were not as spicy as the baked beans. The mac-n-cheese was creamy. We were too full to order dessert. Maybe next time. This is a great neighborhood staple and will definitely be back.

The lighting and décor felt festive without being overwhelming, and the space itself is huge. There's plenty of room whether you're dining with family, catching a game with friends, or just unwinding with drinks after a long day. Speaking of drinks, they're very reasonably priced--definitely worth opening a tab and relaxing for a while. For food, I tried Chuck's Wings with roasted vegetables and Cajun fries. Nothing is ever truly perfect, but these wings came close. The sauce was spot-on--easily some of the best I've had. The vegetables were cooked just right and packed with flavor, and the Cajun fries tied everything together perfectly. Overall, this spot delivers on both atmosphere and quality. Definitely worth checking out.

After years of visiting the 24-hour location on Cicero in Oak Lawn, my dad and I finally landed…read moreearly enough to try the Pulaski location. It may be the original location, or that honor may go to the yet unvisited-by-me third location closer to the Loop, but in any case, this Huck Finn definitely feels different from the one I'm used to. The lighting fixtures, booths, and art all have the same tacky early-2000s feel as the other location, but that's where the similarities end. This one is much smaller, although its dessert-case area has its own tables, and the outside of the building advertises ice cream. This Huck Finn feels like a coffee shop, which is probably why my dad says he likes it more than the "original"--original to us, at least. It has a counter, and while the building looks large from outside, it has about half the seating of Oak Lawn. There's a funky mirror near the bathrooms that makes it look like there's a back dining room--or possibly a Den of Iniquities like the original--but it's all an optical illusion. Service is quick and efficient, as it is at Oak Lawn. Our server, though, was a familiar no-nonsense throwback to an earlier time. Oak Lawn has some of those, but most of its servers are younger women with the thickest Chicago/Great Lakes accents you'll ever hear. (Seriously, although they're all under thirty-five, they sound like they're about to start collecting Social Security.) She was short on small talk, but she made up for it with sass and a whole lot of hard work. The food is good, although the menu is more limited than Oak Lawn's. One thing I don't like is that the menus are flimsy printouts. Oak Lawn at least has laminated pages, although I miss the old multi-page booklet-style menus. Oh well. They have Texas and Alaska donuts here, so it's a legit Huck Finn. It's physically possible to make a left turn onto Pulaski from their parking lot, but I think it's illegal, as you'd have to cross a quadruple yellow line. I spotted two cop cars near here, one when we were arriving, and one when we left, so be careful out there.

The staff did an amazing job making a pizza burger for me without a bun or cheese. I really…read moreappreciated the hospitality and the attention to detail. And it only took the kitchen about ten minutes to make my meal. Highly recommend Huck Finn Restaurant on Pulaski. I'll be going back soon.

I especially liked the meat/ham in the skillet. It's flavorful. 1 star off because it was inconvenient and uncomfortable to dine here. They only have 3 parking spots at the small parking lot in the back. For the majority of parking spots there, they are NOT for this restaurant. You can't park there or your car will be towed (see a picture of the parking lot with the sign below). I ended up parking my car at the much bigger parking lot across from the street. NO WIFI here either. The AC was functioning at the beginning so it felt comfortable, however it started to feel hot later so I didn't want to stay for any longer. I think this place is still worth stopping by during spring or fall when you're not driving because the food was good! Also there's a grocery store (Fair Share) across from this restaurant and I did get some things from there.

There's nothing famous about, and there's no effort put into it, do yourself a favor and eat at home or somewhere else, this place is not it. If 'Mid' was a sandwich this would be it.

I love the vibes (just be careful, the food and drinks seem to attract bees but we didn't mind). We tasted every tacos from the Summer menu, plus the campechano taco from the Happy Hour menu, and loved them all. Always good service! They've always been so welcoming and attentive. My only complaint is that I did think that the salsa were not tasty this time around, but I had chips and salsa plenty of times that I figured it must just be off this time. The green salsa was a bit bland, needed more salt. All-in-all, it's always a good time at Solazo. Here's some more information: - Chile torreado: Very spicy. Be cautious if you're not a spicy lover. - Cebollitas asada: Has a really good seasoning to it.
