Christina’s Place 3759 N Kedzie Ave Chicago
We stopped in here on my last visit to the Windy City for St Patrick's Day and the thing I remember is all the very friendly people, both patrons and staff alike. It was very casual and had a great down to earth vibe.
The drinks were generous and very reasonable if memory serves me correctly....
Sidebar: I think it's rude and just down right disrespectful to ogle waitstaff especially when you're on a date with someone else, but that being said I do admit to stealing a few discreet glances.
