    Great vibe. The drink menu is extensive, including wine and “vintage spirits,” which was cool. The Brussel Sprouts, hanger steak, and the chicken friend chicken were great.

    From our drinks to dessert everything was wonderful! The Valentine's Day special Cupidity cocktail and Negroni w/ heart shaped ice cube were great. Nathan was our server who was so nice, personable and knowledgable! Picked out a great wine to go with our dinner. Started w/ a light and not overpowering Caeser Salad. We had a Valentine's Day special - the porterhouse for 2 and was delicious! Cooked to perfection and so tasty! It came with a side of great garlic mashed potatoes. Had tiramisu for dessert and was great as well. Can't beat Mordacai for a solid meal, great ambience and right across the street from Wrigley Field!

    Was really excited for Valentines dinner, and was disappointed. It wasn't terrible, but it was not good. Upon arrival we were told we had a time limit of 1.5hrs, which is completely fine. Until.. we were encouraged to order all dishes at once, which is not an issue at all. However, while every table around had their dishes coursed out, all 4 of our dishes came out at once. The waygu tartare had no flavor, the potato gnocchi was almost too salty to eat, and the Ceasar salad looked like it came from a grocery store bag kit. The saving grace was the burger and fries. Waiter was friendly, but it really seemed like the kitchen was pushing food as fast as possible to turn over tables. Probably won't be back.

    Mordecai is a restaurant that remains in our dining out rotation. My husband adores the vintage cocktails and the food is consistent. We love their signature desserts. As a vegetarian, I wish they had more options but I certainly walk out of there full. A table by the window and the couples couch at the bar are the two best spots in the house to eat. On a warm day with the windows open, it's so nice o watch people walk by Wrigley Field across the street.The service is always top notch.
