Fodor's "The savory menu is well crafted, too, with choices such as a pork chop with sausage and spaetzle and a tuna melt made with tuna poached in olive oil, wild capers, and Havarti cheese." Full review
Frommer's "Owner Mindy Segal built her reputation as a pastry chef, so no matter what you order here, make sure you save room for dessert." Full review
Travel + Leisure "The dessert selection is the primary focus, and it includes warm brioche doughnuts and seven kinds of hot chocolate, each served with homemade marshmallows." Full review

""Mind-blowing" desserts... might get top billing at Mindy Segal's Bucktown American, but fans say the "upscale" comfort food is "really good" too." Full review
BlackBook "Whether it's elaborate sweets, coffee or a full-scale brunch you seek, demitasse portions are the order of the day at this more stylish than cozy dessert spot and restaurant."
Gayot14.0
"This relatively small, high-volume restaurant serves food that is, more often than not, first-rate." Full review

"Now that's a mouthful, but the lofty, industrial-chic space allures with rich brown hues on leather banquettes, a long wooden bar, and painted concrete floors." Full review
Chicago Tribune 3
"On to the savories, which are handled by chef Mark Steuer, whose style can be big and muscular on one dish, delicate and restrained the next." Full review
Rough Guide Star
"A mix of “sweet” and “savoury” offerings, the weekend brunch is a good bet, and their chocolate desserts are miniature masterpieces."

Fodor's "Chef Jared Wentworth adheres to a farm-to-table aesthetic, so the menu at this hip gastropub changes often." Full review
Zagat ""Expect the hipsters" at this "in-demand" Logan Square New American where a "clear affection for niche ingredients" results in "exciting", "absolutely delicious" fare." Full review
Gayot14.0
"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."
On the Grid "A modern take on an old Chicago neighborhood inn. Eat, sleep, drink." Full review
