Lincoln Park Hotspots to Check Out Pre-MODA Show
The annual MODA show is right around the corner (on February 22, grab your tickets now!), and in my professional opinion, no one should go without treating themselves to a proper meal beforehand. After all, it is our night off, so don’t we deserve all the calories we want?
Without further ado, here is my official list of restaurants worth hitting up in Lincoln Park. Happy feasting and hope to see you at the show!
Burger Bar Chicago
1578 N Clybourn Ave.
$$
Burgers may call to mind a more laidback meal, but these burgers are anything but. Whether you want to customize your own or order off the menu, Burger Bar Chicago has something for everyone. A few mouthwatering menu items include the wild boar bacon Bahn Mi burger and the Fa-Getta-Bout-it burger, a selection of mac and cheese, fried pickles, waffle skewers, and milkshakes.
Boka
1729 N Halsted St.
$$$
With multiple Michelin stars under its belt, Boka is definitely worth a trip. Their menu changes seasonally and currently features ricotta dumplings, grilled salmon, tagliatelle, slow roasted pork neck, as well as an extensive drinks menu!
Peqoud’s Pizza
2207 N Clybourn Ave.
$$
You really can’t go wrong with a slice of pizza, so I had to include Pequod’s in this list. Known for their caramelized crusted pan pizza, this pizza joint is an absolute must when in Lincoln Park.
Juno
2638 N Lincoln Ave.
$$$
Besides their large nigiri menu, Juno offers a wide range of other dishes including chicken wings, mushroom ramen, and ceviche. And as if that wasn’t enough, their dessert menu includes their twist on green tea, chocolate, and red bean ice-cream. Delish!
