The VIG Chicago Bewertungen
Love this place.
Thursday night crowd was great. This is a lively atmosphere, with great service and a well run kitchen, and service staff. Try the Meatball! If you get to Old Town it's a great place to stop
Vig is always a treat.
They are consistent with their quality across different locations. The first VIG that I ever visited was in Phoenix. Felt nostalgic to come to this location in Old Town Chicago. I have been here for brunch and happy hour. Food quality was good. Dri
Get the chicken sandwich.
I dream about it. Trust me you won't regret it and I don't even like chicken that much.
I love the food here! Have had dinner and brunch.
Don't love when they start clearing tables mid dinner to get the dance floor ready.

I've been here a few times now and each visit has been a good surprise. The music is loud and lively, which I actually enjoy, and it makes you think the food might not be the focus. But the food really is good. The burger, steak, and fries have

I'm a coffee enthusiast, and I can confidently say this place has some of the best coffee in town. The baristas are skilled, and the quality is unbeatable
This bartender with glasses was an immediate no.
I got my first drink and then she tried to cut me off?? Do not go here at all and if you do tell her to go F herself
Great drinks and happy hour deals.
They also have matchboxes. The meatball was huge and delicious. I wish it would have had a little more cheese in the middle though lol. Lobster deviled eggs were great, very mustardy. I sat at the bar and enjoyed the vibes. Great place to meet friend

My mom's in town so we stopped for happy hour drinks and apps here and loved it. I was especially excited to see they had some drinks made with vodka from the Denver distillery I used to work at (the server even went back and checked for me!)
5-Star+ Family Experience at The VIG!
Amazing family experience, hospitality, and meal at The VIG! We were a groups of 7 plus a baby. While the online reservation system only allowed reservations for up to 6, the VIG hostesses were engaging, positive, and very helpful on arrival as a par
A vintage sports bar in a big-time sports town
There are a lot of vintage sports bars in Chicago. Which makes a lot of sense because Chicago is a big-time sports town. And no sports bar relates to the theme more than The VIG Chicago. Vig? It is short for the English slang word vigorish, the booki

Came here for a late night dinner, mostly because it was one of the only places open that late in the area, but it ended up being a great decision. Beautiful interiors, friendly and fast service, great food and drinks. I got the chimichurri steak a

The Vig burger was fantastic, I usually like lettuce and onions as well but I didn't miss it here. The bread and spreads appetizer was a huge portion, the bread was nicely toasted and all three dips (artichoke and kale, spicy feta, pimento cheese) we

3.5 kitchen actually delivers (a lot of quality touches), but the ambiance is a jumbled mess. Sure the music is too loud. Which might be fine if it wasn't for the French farmhouse decor...or the illicit sports betting theme. Weird.

So yummy, VERY consistent service and quality, staff is awesome, hardworking, and friendly, and ambiance is really fun.

We visited on a Thursday night and found the atmosphere lively, with a DJ playing all the hits. The food was pretty good, with two vegan options on the menu and the option to substitute a vegetarian patty for the beef patty on the burger. However, I
We were looking for dinner after a show at second city.
Wandering around old town we decided to stop in the Vig. DAMN it was good. THAT good. Tell your mom it's so good. we shared the Mediterranean salad and the meatball sandwich. The bread was on point. Delicious. The meatballs could go up against any I'

My wife and I were looking for a place to grab an early dinner before an event happening at the Chicago Theater. The Vig was a recommendation from a friend for a low key, good vibe, great food spot. It did not disappoint. The food was amazing, the s
My initial visit here was enjoyable.
..on a recent Saturday evening so was bustling to say the least. Good cocktails-particularly the Bronx Tale, which included a spiced pear...interesting mix of a good bourbon drink. Food was enjoyed as well-various dips were tasty, and the bread and
Fun atmosphere.
Big place with a busy, upbeat feel. Went for dinner. Didn't have a reservation but was seated quickly (2 guests). Both meals were great. Smash burger was traditional but very good. Salmon was tender and flavorful. Great vibe for after work drinks or
Beautiful space with great vibes.
We sat by the large open front window which was a perfect mix between the outdoor patio and fun inside. They had great happy hour deals and our server checked with us right before it ended to see if we needed another round. We came for dinner and end
Food was pretty good depending on what you ordered.
I got the Mexican torta with normal cheese instead of the vegan cheese and really liked the entree. My table also ordered some spreads (spicy feta, Brie and apricot, and artichoke and kale) with pressed bread. These were also amazing! However some of

We were in from out of town and a friend recommended this spot for brunch! We went on the earlier side, around 10:30 and it was easy to be seated. We originally had a reservation for 11, but they were kind and seated us early! It was a beautiful day
Our local friends recommended this spot to us.
When we arrived at the restaurant it was a little louder and busier than we expected, but cute hip spot. Definitely happy we made reservations in advance for our weekend dinner plans. We got the Brussel Sprouts Parmesan Fries for our appetizers and e
Great ambiance.
Staff was extremely friendly and accommodating with our stroller. The burger was 10/10 and old fashion was delicious with the perfect amount of sweet!

All of our food was drowned in sauce (regardless of what we ordered), which really means they can't cook. I only wish I took a picture of the food so any prospective guests could see the amount of unnecessary sauce. The music at a Sunday brunch was

YES! My favorite stop on this trip to Chi-Town! Everything about this place screamed quality! The staff was very attentive! We were sat immediately, had water within a minute of sitting, and were greeted by our server for drinks within 2 minutes! I d
Fantastic bar with good food too.
Jam-Packed. The Locals with us said it's always busy. We took a table in the sidewalk to get seated faster. The waitstaff was great as they did the obstacle course thru the tables. Drinks we refilled as needed and the food came out hot from the
Sleazy hidden surcharge
Food was good. Atmosphere was hopping though a bit loud with the music. Service was excellent. The 2 stars is for the hidden surcharge on the bill. Just raise the prices and be transparent. It wasn’t much but it felt sleazy and dishonest. Not a goo
Go for the delicious handhelds, lively crowd and location.
..The Vig is located in Lincoln Park, just across the street from Second City in a bustling neighborhood with a variety of eateries, bars and nightlife. Our favorites were the salmon blt, fried chicken sandwich and meatball sandwich which were next
Crowded but still received great service.
The salmon was delicious. No wait for seating with reservation but also not a long wait for food or drinks.
This is a really cool bar/restaurant, but it gets very busy
This is a really cool bar/restaurant, but it gets very busy during the normal weekend hours. We were able to get a reservation online about a week out, but I doubt we would have succeeded if we waited any longer. The atmosphere is really interesting,
Overall, 4.

The ambience was incredible on a raining day.
Jaime took care of us and really took care of me, not a lot of vegan options and she knew the ingredient of the items i was able to eat. Food was delicious.
Fantastic place.
Got the meatballs and the (choice of 3) spreads! It filled the two of us up. Delicious and great staff! Book a Resy for sure before going on peak weekends/nights.
Place was very lively but almost too loud to have any
Place was very lively but almost too loud to have any conversation. Food was okay but nothing stands out. It's totally a bar scene if you prefer this type of atmosphere.
The food, service, ambiance was excellent.
Sorry didn't take pictures, we were so engulfed in conversation and tasting the food. It's defintely added to my list of "The go tos". The atmosphere was very pleasant and warm. Thank you VIG for the first time experience.

My girlfriend and I walked in for brunch on a Saturday oblivious to the fact that this is a hugely trendy spot. The place was bustling nicely at 11:00 but not super packed. That changed very shortly! We ordered coffee and my girlfriend tried the moch
Came in for dinner before improv at Second City.
There's a lot of dining options in the area, but definitely check this place out. The atmosphere is a bit loud so just know that if you choose to dine here - it was a bit hard to hear conversations. With that said, the service was prompt and the food
Amazing dinner in Old Town Chicago
Went here for dinner on a little couples getaway with my wife. If there was a rating over 5 stars I would give it based on our experience. From the service, to the ambiance, to the food, to the drinks, it was all amazing. You absolutely must do th

Nehmen wir an, Peter hat einen großartigen Morgen und beschließt, seine drei Freunde am selben Tag um 18 Uhr ins The VIG Chicago einzuladen.
Er sieht auf der Website des Restaurants nach und stellt fest, dass keine Reservierungen verfügbar sind. Dann schaut er auf die The VIG Chicago-Seite bei AppointmentTrader, findet aber auch dort keine Nutzereinträge.
Genau hier kommt der von der Community getriebene Bietprozess ins Spiel.
Peter kann ein Gebot auf AppointmentTrader abgeben, das als Belohnung für jedes Community-Mitglied dient, das daran arbeitet, die Reservierung zu sichern. AT benachrichtigt dann erfahrene Nutzer, die helfen könnten.
Schritt-für-Schritt-Anleitung
1.) Festlegen einer Belohnung (Gebot)
* AppointmentTrader nutzt historische Daten, um eine angemessene Belohnung für das Sichern einer Reservierung zu empfehlen – sagen wir $100.
* Peter möchte unbedingt hingehen, also erhöht er das Gebot (bzw. die Belohnung) auf $200.
* Zu diesem Zeitpunkt existiert die Reservierung noch nicht.
2.) Ein Community-Nutzer übernimmt das Gebot
* MaternalRecord73, ein erfahrener AT-Nutzer mit einer starken Erfolgsbilanz beim Sichern von Reservierungen und wenigen Rückerstattungsanfragen, erhält eine Benachrichtigung über Peters Gebot in Höhe von $200.
* MaternalRecord73 übernimmt das Gebot und arbeitet nun daran, die Reservierung zu sichern.
* Peter kann sich jetzt an MaternalRecord73 wenden, wenn er Fragen hat, während MaternalRecord73 das Gebot bearbeitet.
3.) Die Reservierung finden
* MaternalRecord73 nutzt nun seine Kontakte im The VIG Chicago, um den Tisch zu sichern.
* Wenn er erfolgreich den Tisch für vier um 18 Uhr sichert, erhält Peter eine Bestätigung, dass die Reservierung gemacht wurde.
* Gelingt es MaternalRecord73 nicht, die Reservierung zu sichern, wird das Gebot wieder freigegeben, sodass ein anderer Nutzer es versuchen kann.
4.) Bezahlung & Schutz
* Sobald die Reservierung sicher ist, erhält MaternalRecord73 die Belohnung von $200, die dem AT-Guthaben von MaternalRecord73 gutgeschrieben wird; dort verwalten Nutzer ihr Geld selbst und können per Banküberweisung, PayPal oder Zelle auszahlen lassen.
