Every time I visit, the decor never ceases to impress. It's classy but unpretentious and you can tell folks are there to have a good time. We arrived at about 8:30pm on a Saturday and it was packed. Luckily, we were able to snag seats at a bar before a table opened up around 9pm. A note that they don't take reservations (but I kind of wish they did!), so this isn't the place to go if you're in a rush. They had a special seasonal menu going for the holiday, and we started with the reuben hush puppies. While they were more like croquettes, they were extra crispy, cheesy, and juicy with the most delicious thousand island dressing. I wish they would offer this year round! For mains, we ordered the corned beef and buddha bowl. I really liked the horseradish aioli that came with the beef- while the meat could've been more tender, it had a great flavor overall. The cabbage actually tasted pickled and the carrots sweet; non-traditional, but tasty! The buddha bowl had a very wide range of veggies and perfectly cooked rice. I could drink that spicy peanut sauce. I appreciated how large the portions were, which definitely softened the price as we left with plenty of leftovers. All in all, we had a great experience- if you haven't checked Wilde out, I highly recommend doing so!

Unique, creamy and full of flavor. Will definitely be back!

(Kari's Rating 8/10)…read more Came in on a Friday night about 8 o'clock, and I didn't realize there was a basketball game tonight, so the bar was really packed with IU fans. I heard off this place from an Instagram video from a food blogger. There wasn't initially seating when we first got in, but the bartender/hostess helped us make a makeshift table. We also didn't have a chair so she had to go find a chair and she found one so really appreciate her hustle. The wings came out pretty quickly, the honey barbecue wings were really sweet, and came with a substantial amount of sauce. The ranch was impeccable. It was not too thin and came with celery. The birds nest hot sauce was relatively hot for a medium. I was definitely feeling the spice after two or three. I think there was a little too much sauce on the wings for me, personally, but overall very good. The volume is really loud because everyone was there for the game, so we kinda had to yell over each other to have a conversation. We got our check pretty quickly and the servers were really attentive. I would definitely come back if I was in the area, but I probably wouldn't come all the way from River North for this again.

Waitress forced us out of our table. We were eating wings during a weekday football game. We told the waitress we were planning on leaving at halftime of the game. We got our check with 3 min left in the half so we could leave immediately after the first half ended. Instead of letting us stay for 2 extra minutes, she forced us out of our table and told us we could watch the rest of the game standing up at the bar. Not the way to treat paying repeat customers.

Easily one of the biggest burgers I've had for the price, seriously, it was the size of my head. Juicy, flavorful, and totally hit the spot. The staff was super chill and friendly, which made the place even more enjoyable. Whether you're looking for a casual night out, some solid food, or a great spot to catch a game, Rocks is definitely worth coming back to. I'll be returning for sure.

We came here hoping for some good food with some drinks and we really enjoyed our experience overall. The place got really packed over the course of our time here with more people who had the same idea as us. With that came slower service and our server forgot a few things and mixed up our drinks but she was really nice and it didn't affect our experience all too much. My friend ordered a burger and my partner and I split an appetizer. We got pretzel bites and 1/2 pound of jumbo fried shrimp and everything was actually so good! We were impressed. After a bunch of drinks and food, the bill was pretty up there in price as expected. My only two complaints was that the bouncer guy at the beginning was a little weird and didn't make us feel exactly welcomed when he sat us. Secondly, it took forever for us to pay to get out of the place because the bartender/servers were inundated with people. They also were vaping behind the counter and not showing enough urgency when they were so many people waiting to order drinks and also customers at tables waiting on food, service, etc. I figure coming back here on a less busy day would be the best idea. Can't imagine what it's like during Cubs games. Yikes
