Don't go here. They don't want your business. – I have to give Bad Dog the lowest rating for two reasons: (1) almost inedible food and (2) extremely rude management. My husband and I have gone to Bad Dog Tavern every single Thursday night since June 2009 – whether it was 20 degrees below zero, pouring rain or there was two feet of snow on the ground. That’s over 64 weeks in a row. We go for the trivia and bring between two and four people with us every time. We buy a lot of drinks and really run up the tab. We also tip at le... read more
Bad time, Dog of a time. – My Wife and I were looking for a nice restaurant in which we could celebrate our 5 year wedding anniversary, and we could not have been more disappointed. We were met with cold and dismissive service from indifferent staff members, for example; my wife didn't like the table at which we were seated because she felt a chill from a draft, numerous times I requested that we be sat elsewhere and each time I was met with undue hostility. The meal was adequate at best, but the prices were not, and the who... read more
Perfect night out at Bad Dog – Awesome drink list! Me and a few of my friends had a great night out at bad dog. The server was nice and took care of us well, he even bought us a round! We all split the green beans with lime sauce and the hummus. All the food that passed by our table looked great too! We'll be back soon!
Horrible Service – Me and my friends ordered a few drinks and some fries. We figured the bill would be around $20 -$25 but it was $78!! When I asked the manager about the charges he said "your lucky we didn't charge you more for being loud". I said are you serious? He said "get blanched". I don't even know what that means.
Amazing Entrees! – Bad Dog has great entrees, i have been there several times over the past year and I have had almost every entree on their menu. The ahi, the pork chop, steak, scallops....all fantastic. They get pretty busy at night, so i'd get there early. They also have a huge beer list with a lot of Belgians, Micros, and American craft beers, also a great touch. Highly recommended!
Best damn sports bar in Lincoln Square! – Bad dog is easily the best place in lincoln square to watch sports and enjoy awesome food. Their appetizer list is awesome...buffalo ROLLS, yes buffalo rolls! Wings, Mussels, Mac n cheese bites, and more. I personally like the Rueben rolls. Great pizza and huge huge burgers!!!
New management, Better place! – I haven't been to Bad Dog in a while, but i heard they have new managers or owners. I didn't recognize the place when I came back...so much better. The food was excellent, the service was speedy and warming. I will be back. good job new owners!
Many many good beers, so little time! – I am one of your beer snobs, and proud of it. It's nice to go to a place like Bad Dog when you want a good craft beer. Stouts, ports, IPA's, wheats, dark, light, whatever your fancy, bad dog has it! From Miller Lite (not my favorite) to Gumball Head (close favorite). I also had a few sandwiches there and you can't go wrong with the Dog Town or any of their Burgers. Doggy bag will be needed at Bad Dog, because they have large portions.
HORRIBLE! – This is by far the worst restaurant I have been to in Chicago. The food was overpriced, and not good. Everyone at my table (I had a party of 4) hated their meal. Two of us wanted to send the food back because it was so poor. The manager actually told us "If you don't like it you can leave!". And I swear, we were being completely nice about it. To make matters worse, when we got home, we all got sick. We were throwing up for 2 days! I emailed Chad Kramer, the manager to tell him about our experience. He emailed me... read more
