Best Restaurants with a Happy Hour in Little Italy / University Village

I was so happy we were able to get in last minute. We looked at reservations for tonight around 11 am, the only thing available was 9:15. Maybe 45 minutes later a 6:45 pops up and we were able to snag it. We had the short rib humus, whipped feta, hamachi, pork belly, steak & frites, fried halloumi and two kabobs. Perfect for all 4 of us hungry eaters. 100% will be back- if you can get in I highly recommend trying anything and everything on the menu. Service was impeccable. Food was courses perfectly and everything came out hot right out of the oven. If you have been to Bavel in LA you will love this “sister” in Chicago

Their happy hour was amazing! The star of the show was the mango guacamole.

Food was excellent! Scott was a very attentive server! Both Scott and his colleague Andrew Spence (who seated us and made great wine suggestions), were highly knowledgeable about the menu and we enjoyed speaking with them. It was a lovely evening and we’d definitely return. The truffle gnocchi, meatball appetizer, salmon, scallops, and filet were all outstanding!

Burgers were to die for! The general manager sat us at a scenic area and gave us some information as it was our first time in Chicago. Only down side was we ordered calamari but never got it and the server checked on us when we were already done our meal without ever receiving the appetizer. Otherwise the restaurant was beautiful and food was so good. Would definitely return.

The welcome to the restaurant was very pleasant. The service was friendly and very attentive. This was not my first visit to.Peanut Park. They are consistently friendly and attentive. The food is always excellent and reasonably priced. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone.
