• The best no-frills seafood in town. Walking down the stairs into the basement, you feel like you're walking into either a dive bar or an illegal poker game. The fact that it's cash only adds to it's authentic, old Chicago vibe. My parents ate here in the late 60's and assure me absolutely nothing has changed... Yet there's no place I'd rather go for martinis and king crab legs. From the frog legs to the overflowing plates of smelt, oysters and clams to the variety of crab, it's always fresh, cheep and delicious. Note that they don't really serve any fish. This is all about the shellfish.
