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.

Great food - mainly spanish with a bit of greek, Italian & Chicago land thrown in, and a great winelist. Very busy and vibrant atmosphere.

We were beginning to give up on Chicago and the food experience until we ate at The Purple Pig, wow the food just melted in your mouth, we had the pork shoulder, turkey leg & broccoli. The service was excellent! I would highly recommend it.

This establishment is off the hook! Service, wine recommendations, food INCREDIBLE!! I had heard from a chef friend to make this a must when in Chicago. He was spot on! The food was magnifico! The dessert to die for! Our server was amazing and the place was packed! It was a birthday treat and so worth it! We will definitely be back the next time in the city! Grazie for a FABULOUS birthday treat!! (I will be dreaming of that milk braised pork)

We ordered a variety of meats and cheeses and they were all great. We also ordered the octopus and it was the best we have ever had. The pig cheek was interesting but I'm not much into fried foods. The wine selection was excellent as well. Great atmosphere both inside and on the patio. I look forward to going back!
