First time there. I now get the attraction. It usually gets 4 or 5 stars from those who have been there. Drove by Wrigley and almost jumped out of the car. Great food. Weather has been San Diego like.Will be back.

If it's 1st time there, try to get Italian beef sandwich, deep dish, Gibsons or Chop House, Rosebuds, or Greektown. Also, gotta do architecture boat tour and beer garden at end of Navy Pier.
Chicago's craft beer scene is first class. Goose Island, Half Acre, Revolution, Pipeworks, Off Color, Une Annee. You can get Three Floyd's as well there.
Leroy is a gambler, and he likes his fancy clothes.
My favorite city. Gibson's, Twin Anchors (rib heaven), Comiskey Park (it's much nicer than Wrigley), Grant Park, the lakefront, Field Museum, Shedd Aquarium...love it!
The architectural boat tour was great, and I'm no architect, just sayin
Was in Chicago two years ago. My daughter is a picky eater and she wanted Giordanos pizza every day. Didn't think she'd like it. I was wrong!
I lived I Chicago for 3 years. Great city. Lots of good suggestions. I would add go to Second City. Have fun.

Yeah. Goose used to be craft beer. tho their bar in wrigleyville ain't bad. So many other bars.....ahhhhh
Agree Rosebud Trattoria is one of the best Italian restaurants in America ... greatest cheese ravioli I've ever had. Right across the street is Giovannis a total classic and the best deep dish in greater Chi town
Chicago, Chicago!
Greatest town ever for visiting players.
Great bars, hot girls, great restaurants.

Driving back from Montana the plan was to stop in Chicago get some deep dish, maybe walk around a little, check things out.
But as we approached got all tangled up in traffic, my gf almost had a meltdown cause we were on a quarter tank of gas and was afraid we were not going to make it to a gas station in time.
Long story short a couple hours later I was yelling eff bombs at Chicago from the interstate as we merely drove by.

If you are on the highway at one of their tolls, throw a shitload of penny's in the machine. Its the only state that takes penny's in the toll booths because of Linclon.
The trip was outstanding.Opened up a huge customer in Wisconsin. I am going back for a Cubs game the Navy pier the sears tower some blues . Then to Milwaukee to stalk Bob Uecker before he forgets to wake up someday.
