    Luxe Burger and fries: wood farm beef with caramelized onion, bacon, white cheddar, house pickles, and "wish-we-had-the-recipe" Luxe Aioli.

    Took some friends who had never been and they too loved Spoke and Ivy! Walking in, you are warmly greeted and welcomed. Atmosphere is very Chicago-esque in that it is bold, clean, modern, industrial with a touch of glamour. Menu is not huge but is uniquely varied and well presented. Food is very fresh and delicious. A great venue for an evening out with friends or loved ones. Appetizers at our table this evening were the Lobster Roll Rangoon and the chopped. stuffed mushrooms in a roasted tomato creme. Sorry, forgot pics of those 2 yummy dishes. Entrees included the Rigatoni alla Verde (pictured), the Milanese (pictured), and the wood Farms beef Luxe Burger (also pictured). All were prepared with care and attention to detail., Very fresh. Very very good! Shared their carrot cake w/cherries...oh my! So moist and the portion is generous...can easily split with someone you love for the perfect finish to your meal. Highly recommend!

    Yesterday, my fiancé & I stopped in Spoke + Ivy for brunch to celebrate our anniversary. We were quickly seated & our server, Tina, took our drink orders. Each cocktail we had was both boozy & fruity, very good! Our carrot (puree) potato latke appetizer tasted so good, especially with the chopped onions on it. I don't even like carrots, but that puree was spot on! The ambiance of the restaurant is very open & warm, with lots of windows. Thankfully, it was an overcast day, otherwise my eyes might have hurt! The wait staff will fill your water without you asking, which was great because my fiancé was very thirsty. Tina stood & chatted with us for a bit a couple of times. She was very cheery & friendly. Our entrees were brought in a timely fashion. My side biscuit n' gravy was huge. I had not expected so much food in one serving. The sausage gravy, though flour-heavy, tasted good. The biscuit was dense & had a crunch on the outside. I liked it. My actual brunch entree, the lemon curd crepe, was really nice. The lemon curd inside the crepe had a mild flavor, but the strawberry & lemon sauces were punchy & tasty. The berries on top added to the lightness & brightness of the dish. My fiancé's veggie lasagna was a tad overcooked, but it was very tasty. He happily ate it without further complaint & was full when finished. Though we were far too full to order a homemade donut for dessert, & we had some leftovers, we couldn't have had a better experience at Spoke + Ivy! We will be back!

    Aesthetic is the word to describe Spoke & Ivy. It's gorgeous! Clearly a lot of money and attention went in to curating this space. That said, food was mid and service was poor. I got 3 shrimp on grits and vodka sauce for $23. It was alright. My spouse got the crepe, which was delicious. Lemon curd and thyme creme were good. Our server took 20 minutes to bring two lattes. It was so loud and she was so soft-spoken that it was difficult to hear her. Meh.

    Another local establishment that I hope is successful for ever growing restaurant scene. It was Mother's Day and my wife wanted to try out their brunch. 10:15am on a Sunday and we were seated promptly. I liked the layout and decor, keeping the "older building" vibe. The only "knock" I had wears the noise level with the high ceilings and openness and the restrooms are small/ 1-seaters. The coffee was good. The cinnamon rolls were decadent, but slightly undercooked in the center. The strawberry ricotta coffee cake was a winner! The biscuits and gravy with egg was good, but could have used a little more gravy based on the size of the biscuits. The shrimp and grits were spot on as was the steak and eggs selection. The place was packed and it looked like service was keeping up and all the guests were enjoying the morning. Some of the dinner options and cocktails looked delectable and I can't wait to head back for an evening experience.

    We had the Milanese and the Tagliatelle. The Milanese was so good, I almost licked the plate clean, crispy juicy chicken and the pesto with the goat cheese was a good balance. My friend said the Tagliatelle had "a lot of flavors going on" she almost ate it all which was a good thing. We also had (not pictured) shrimp and grits and the walleye which were also good. The cucumbers were yummy but v spicy, dipped in the goat cheese was a good move. If I went back I'd get the Milanese again though. The design is very elegant and welcoming- however, when the place got full around 8pm it was really hard to hear each other because of how loud it got with the open space concept. We did sneak down to the speak easy and it was very cozy down there!

    Spoke and Ivy is one of my favorite local restaurants, they have great food, made to order. I have never had a bad experience, everyone who works there seems to enjoy what they do, leading to great service. The atmosphere and ambiance is pretty, cool and comfortable.

They have a very short suite menu, but what I had was terrific I had a a salad with salmon on it and a lot of other veggies. It was terrific. The salmon was jerk, salmon, and the whole thing was a delicious repast. We had a appetizer of a couple bowls of their homemade chips. Unlike many places that don't salt them. These were salted just the right amount not too salty and I can't say anything bad about it. Our server was terrific and his name was Alex and the place is shaping up. I guess they just took it over from someplace else. The walls are a little bit bare needs a little more decoration and the ceiling is bare, but the chairs are very comfortable so it's an easy five star.

If you want sun...sit out on the patio. If you want sunny shade and a breeze..sit under the outdoor cover/bar area or grab a table with an umbrella. You can't really go wrong here. Charlie's is also good for larger groups...and kids! Charlie's place is a large facility with lots of seating. The hosts are friendly. Making an on line reservation is easy. They always seem to have plenty of staff to serve and make you feel comfortable. Kudos to the team for developing a more attractive and welcoming lobby area! Sunday afternoon is brunch. They have a different menu than a normal lunch or dinner menu. Those menus are usually large and full of great choices. The brunch menu is much narrower and dominated by breakfast items. There are some non breakfast items...but not many. My wife had the breakfast tacos. She really liked the egg and bacon mixture. The sour cream and salsa sauces blended the tastes nicely. The Cobb salad was very fresh and tasty. There were lots of side ingredients such as egg, avocado, bacon, blue cheese, tomato and cucumber. The grilled chicken was plentiful and moist. Just enough grilled and seasoned taste to blend right in with the ingredients. The home made honey mustard dressing was consistent with what you would expect from honey mustard.

It was alright -- nothing special, but given the size and volume of the place, I don't necessarily expect everything to be made completely fresh to order. It did the job. The service was also just alright. My interaction with the barista/bartender was brief and unfortunately a bit stale. She wasn't rude, just not particularly warm or memorable. Overall, it's a convenient place with a lot of options, but the experience itself was pretty average.

Although, there was a couple really drunk gals there and a server asked the bartender to cut them off, in that kind of joking but not joking way. The bartender didn't cut them off. I hope they weren't driving. The bar is beautiful with warm wood and a mirror behind the bar making the place feel bigger that it is, yet still a cozy dive. I ordered a raspberry lemon drop that was too sweet. The BBQ chicken flatbread I had for dinner came out looking like a cheese pizza; however, the BBQ chicken was under all the cheese, which seemed to work flavor wise, but it's a bit rich. So, probably best to share since a couple pieces is all you need.
