Best Restaurants for Special Occasions in North of Foster / Rogers Park

What a great Saturday night experience at artango. Dinner,wine and entertainment was perfect. It was extremely crowded but service was impeccable ! Loved the special on the empanadas goat cheese with chorizo was insanely !

Wonderful Valentine’s Day dinner. We were on time for our reservation, and they promptly sat us at our table. Nice vibe. Our waiter was attentive and a pleasure. I recommend trying to sit in the front room or back room. We were seated at one of three “two tops” in the narrow hallway next to the kitchen. Although it was exciting to see the kitchen humming on all cylinders, the ventilation is not great. Our eyes were watering from the kitchen smoke. Not a big deal, but for whatever reason, it’s just not ventilated very well. But, it’s a fair trade off to see the kitchen and all the excitement. Will go back.

Farm Bar has become one of my favorite restaurants over the years, we live in the neighborhood and it's always our go to. Great staff, great service, just a great overall vibe. 

Amazing service and food! Can’t wait to come back for brunch

Our favorite date night spot! Our server always makes us feel special, and whatever we order is always fantastic. I tend to get a fish entree because they do fish better than anywhere else I've been, but you can't go wrong with a pasta dish or the lamb entree. I got the bucatini this time and it was entirely too delicious. I think I finished it in 15 minutes, which is a feat for me as it was a full serving of pasta. We always end by splitting the chocolate hazelnut tart dessert - it never disappoints. The edge of the covered patio gets pretty cold when it's snowing, but the internal patio is heated well.
