Raw Bar, Addison - Groupon - Z

Located in the near shadow of Wrigley Field, this was definitely a fun date, but needs a little TLC. It was almost dead the whole time we were there, so it was really quiet and intimate overall. Food was pretty good, the Dolmeh was a little like eating pickle relish, but the cheese ravioli was really good. The food definitely had Egyptian highlights, my favorite was the chicken salad. Wine was a tad expensive for the quality. Minus points for only having one entrée that was vegetarian friendly. The Penne sauce that they use was absolutely awesome though. The staff was REALLY attentive, my water was never empty, they all picked up after each other to keep our table clear for more food, but our server was BRAND new and needed to consult more than a handful of times with other staff. I would give it overall high marks with some areas that need improvement to make this “second visit” worthy. It was FUN but they definitely cost themselves, and I can’t say I really have any major desire to go back at this point. Food 7/10, ambiance 8/10, Service 7/10, overall 7/10. -Z
