Fodor's "If you're doing Steppenwolf pre-theater dinner on North Halsted Street, this upscale spot gets the foodie stamp of approval." Full review
Frommer's "In a neighborhood full of Irish pubs and casual sandwich joints, Boka is a sophisticated, grown-up alternative." Full review
Travel + Leisure "After starting with creative handcrafted cocktails, which can be customized to suit personal flavor preferences, move on to seasonal specialties like the braised beef short rib ravioli." Full review
Zagat "After a serious refresh (which may not be reflected in the scores), this hip Lincoln Park New American has a new menu and a new look." Full review
Gayot "Boka's menu, which was already good, has become considerably better with time. We find first courses are a real strength --- complex, artful and highly seasonal." Full review
Michelin Guide 1 Star
"An undercurrent of romance buzzes through Boka, from the airy patio to the remodeled lounge, and through the tented ceiling of the chic dining room." Full review

"He has the culinary chops to pull off dishes like seared scallops with beech mushrooms, pickled ramp bulbs and black truffle cream of wheat." Full review
Time Out "At Longman & Eagle, there are old fashioneds, stirred slowly and carefully behind a dark, gorgeous bar." Full review
Condé Nast Traveler Editor's Pick
"This is the gastropub that put Logan Square on the map as a wow-worthy dining destination." Full review
The Infatuation "The reason we, and probably you, continue to love Longman and Eagle has a lot to do with them sticking to their “Eat Sleep Whisky” mantra, and continuing to do so at affordable price points." Full review
Not For Tourists "Bourbon like nobody's business; also a restaurant and six-room inn."
