Incredible food, came out quickly. We sat at the bar because it was crowded. Helpful staff. The grilled octopus was the best I've ever eaten, highly recommend! Carbonara was also delicious. I'm glad I brought my sister here, who was visiting from FL.

The Purple Pig is a must stop for Steph when in Chicago. Great food, efficient service. I don't really know how the kitchen staff does it in that tiny space.
