About this business
Noisy, lively and fun, this big sister to the original restaurant on Grand Avenue is an attractive diner. Experience its floor to ceiling windows, lots of seating, a bustling bar and counter service. Corn muffins arrive at your table as soon as you sit down. The wide-ranging menu, with its decidedly southern emphasis, features crab cakes, Hoppin' John, blackened chicken, ham on-the-bone and a number of daily specials. The dessert menu is anchored by Key Lime Pie, of "best in the city" fame. Breakfast and Sunday brunch are al... read more

I don't live in this neighborhood. A friend took me there for Sunday brunch. I was happy with what I ordered. I love southern food. corn muffins, shrimp and grits, it went well with the spicy vodka lemonade!!! Now I need to go back... :)
Good Food! – I visited Wishbone Restaurant last week. It was a good day for me. It was lunch break and I decided to go and eat there. The food were good and their service was good too. I'll be back to eat there again.
WAITRESS LOST MY DEBIT CARD – The waitress LOST MY DEBIT card after she charged it and brought me a receipt to sign and no card. Said someone hit her arm and maybe it flew out...really?? They said, "sorry, we'll call you if we find it." Um, it's not an umbrella, it's a debit card!! And, a call was the only thing they offered. I'd better get busy changing card numbers everywhere it's registered.....thanks, Wishbone!
Wanted to visit – I'm not after reading reviews
The worst! – Wishbone is awful. We always have problems when we come here. The menu is bland and mediocre across the board. The dishes usually come cold and our orders are always mixed up or missing something. I'm writing this after just opening our take out bag and seeing that they messed up two of four entrees and completely forgot to give us our fifth. The only reason we still frequent this dump is because my wife has an illogical emotional attachment to it because it was one of the first places she ate at when she first ... read more
Nice, but.... – Every time I leave this nice restaurant, I'm disapointed. Today it was for breakfast and I found the 2 egg white omlette with spinach and chesse to be extermely dry and tasteless. The potatoes which came with the dish were also dry, dry, dry. The only item that was normal was the wheat toast. I had to flag down our wait person-- and it wasn't at all busy-- for a check after waiting for more than 15 minutes while my friend and I sat there. She wasn't a nice nor friendly person; she seemed to be frantic. Why? w... read more
Eat your heart out, San Francisco! – We"ve loved this place (on Washington) since it first opened.... breakfast, lunch and dinner are all great. I can't even begin to pick out a favorite dish, but the veggie burgers are so good I eat them even though I'm not a vegetarian; I don't think we've ever had anything that we didn't like a lot. We've moved to San Francisco, but never visit Chicago without heading for the Wishbone. Great service, great crowd, great food.
I LOVE the food here. Always bring out-of-towners here to eat some comfort food. Yummy and reminds me of home – I have never had a bad experience here (or the location on Lincoln). The black bean cakes, shrimp & grits, crunchy french toast...it's all wonderful. The martini's are yummy too (can't find them on the online menu but I'm pretty sure we had some there...they do have a liquor license). If you are looking for a home-cooked meal, look no further. The only draw-back is their hours. Now that they are in the midst of a h... read more
Overrated – "southern-style" maybe if they're trying to copy a pretty ordinary restaurant serving bland food in the south. no major complaints about the place, the food just really isn't very good. would not go back, too many places in the city worth going to.
