The bar at Myron & Phil’s
At this Lincolnwood steak house, the Jewish answer to Gene & Georgetti, you can make a meal in the bar alone, where stiff well-poured drinks are offset by quality snacks: chips and salsa, Merkt’s cheese on Ritz crackers, and occasionally some salty toasted garlic bialys. The hospitality extends to the dining room, where fressers sit on big studded leather chairs that could’ve been upholstered out of Rob Halford’s codpieces and meals commence with the relish tray—an antiquated and magnanimous gesture that includes bialys, thick slices of pumpernickel, pickled tomatoes and peppers, and chopped liver. 3900 W. Devon, Lincolnwood, 847-677-6663, myronandphils.com. —Mike Sula
