About this business

Located along the Magnificent Mile, this lively tapas-style restaurant is aptly named, specializing in "Cheese, Swine & Wine," but also serving a large selection of pork-free options. The prices are reasonable, with most dishes under ten dollars, and there's an extensive wine list. Sit at the communal tables and share some delicious Mediterranean dishes at one of the top restaurants in the county.

Excellent food and ambience! Love the community tables. Tried foods I'd never had and would definitely go back when in Chicago!

Service, food & location were outstanding. Mike was our server yesterday at lunch & he helped us narrow down our choices. Be prepared for community long table seating. We enjoyed the bone marrow, cheese/meat plate, & deviled fried egg. The octopus, turkey leg, pork shoulder, & pasta received rave reviews from our table mates.

The place is crowded for sure. The dish layout is super nice however the taste is ok. The lobster cannoli is terrible in the flour layer while the rest part is very nice though. This gives me mixed feeling about this restaurant.

BEEF TENDERLOIN OMG. Great eclectic dishes. Ambiance is loud, busy and cramped, but the food makes up for it.

Loved it. The appetizers were phenomenal. The Whipped Feta with Cucumbers and the Salt Roasted Beets were a surprise with the taste of whipped cheeses added to the mix. Sitting outside was fun with getting the true Chicago city feel. Wonderful place. Headed over to Eno's Wine bar and Dylan's Candy Bar after. Everything fun close by. Thank You!!
