Great Meal and atmosphere. My husband and I were vacationing in Chicago and ate at the Wishbone on Washington and I must say we really enjoyed ourselves. The atmosphere was great, the service was wonderful and the food was delicious. We would visit again and we suggest that you visit as well. The food is not the normal bland food you would find at traditional places. The flavor and variety will have everyone ordering different things off the menu and wanting to sample off each other's plate,lol. The grits were wonderful and the freshly made strawberry lemonade was great!

Fantastic Southern food. This place is great. The biscuits and gravy, grits and bloody marys are all phenomenal. Cute decor inside and a great patio outside. One of the best brunches in the city.

Fun fun fun. I just moved to Chicago a month ago, and I've been to Wishbone three times -- each visit has been terrific. The Savannah shrimp omelette is a hangover cure on a plate...genius. The perfect brunch spot, though it gets crazy crowded: proof, however, that it's a deservedly hot spot.

Wild about Wishbone!. Wishbone is a wonderful southern style restaurant with a funky flair. The restaurant is large, decorated with eclectic decor, and while it gets crowded sometimes, the "adult" (formally the smoking) section, is more quiet and private. As a vegetarian, there's quite a wide variety of things to eat. I love the 'Hoppin' John' dish- black eyed peas, rice, mixed veggies, topped with chedder cheese. Yummmy! They also have many veggie side dishes, and the best mashed potatoes ever! Also, you get a lot of food for your money here, the portions are huge! The service is friendly and catering to the patrons. They also have a great bar. I love going in for hearty soul food, and unwinding with a cocktail. I wish the veggie dishes were slightly more spicy, but other than that, Wishbone rocks! I also adore their trademark snearing poodle too, she so cute!

Wishbone has gone downhill????. I have been going to Wishbone on Lincoln for the last five years. My last visit was absolutely horrible. The service was the worst. I don't know what happened, but I don't think I will be returning. There are plenty of other breakfast places in the area with better food and service. Too bad, this used to be a good restaurant.
