    Fantastic service, quick even on a busy Saturday night! The Chicago old fashioned is divine, as are the cheese curds. The new roasted turkey French dip is an incredible addition to the menu! I will definitely come back to get one of these again. And, as always, the key lime pie is creamy, delicious, and addictive. Thanks, L. Woods, for another great “business dinner” :) :)

    We had an outstanding dinner experience at Scotty’s. The food was excellent - everyone at our table of six enjoyed their meals. The service was superb - they went above and beyond to cater to my wife’s food allergies and were attentive and engaging.

    It has been several years since we dined here. We remembered the food being delicious, but the service felt very rushed. This time, I am happy to write. the service was better this time. The food and cocktails were more delicious than we remembered. We ordered the escargot, Lyonnaise salad and oxtail bourginoun(?). The escargot is probably the best we've had in Chicago. Lyonnaise was very good, but a bit too much vinegar in the dressing for my taste . The oxtail was incredibly tender and delicious, and definitely plenty for two people. We did not have dessert, as we were completely full. We will definitely return again in the near future.
