Drew's on Halsted

Operating in Lakeview East since 1996 under owner Drew Johnson, the dining room pairs an elegant, upscale setting with an unpretentious atmosphere where guests can arrive dressed up or completely casual. The kitchen backs up its cocktail and martini bar with a broad lineup, turning out dishes like tuna tartare, butternut squash pasta, Amish chicken, and the house Halsted burger. Come Saturday and Sunday, the room leans into a vintage supper-club feel with live entertainment alongside an inexpensive weekend brunch.
