Fast, efficient service between the waiter and food runners. Good brew selection. The porters were thin and watered down; I was looking for more full body. Settled on a tasty scotch ale. The brussel sprouts were the best I’ve had with an amazing miso butter. The cheese selection was delectable, but the bite size square pieces were annoying to use with the crostini; I would have preferred thin slices to pair with the perfectly toasted crostini. The short rib entree was amazing and would definitely reorder on my next visit.

The beers were amazing! The different flavor combinations were subtle, yet distinctive. We started with the cheese plate, which was very tasty. A nice mix of soft and firm cheeses that complimented each other. Each of your main meals held wonderful flavor surprises. I would highly recommend the short ribs, the duck, and the mushroom pot pie! To finish off our meal we had coffee and a slice of their chocolate beer cake! We shared the cake amongst the three of us! The server was very attentive and allowed us plenty of time to explore the menu. I’ll be coming back to Forbidden Root!!! Also, a big shout out to Check Please! Great choice!

Found through the Dine-it-4-ward chicago dining guide for 2024-2025 and so glad we started off the new year of dining out at Forbidden Root. Server recommended the Monday special (burger and beer combo), and the pork schnitzel sandwich. Food came out quick, and the option to get an NA beer for members at the table who do not drink was much appreciated. I would highly recommend Forbidden Root be it dinner for one, two, or twenty. Look forward to another experience there soon!
