    We have been going yearly to the Dirty Dog for 17 years (since it opened). It is one of the best run restaurants that my wife and I have ever experienced . Willie and his staff are 1st class and we love coming back. My in-laws are from Chicago and they would prefer dining here that any jazz bar/club from the Windy City. Hi praise, indeed!!!

    Always such a great time here. The service was spectacular. Carl, the bar tender, was amazing as usual. He always provides such great customer care - attentive, friendly, and kind. Thanks to Carl, my significant other and I make the Dirty Dog our go to spot to celebrate life's special events. Great music, great food, and great service.

    I made reservations for birthday dinner and night out. The DDJC was FABULOUS, we are not really jazz fans, but the live band was terrific, the service, food and specialty cocktails were wonderful. Small, intimate, dark and moody, was really a great time. Highly recommend
