Morgan’s Bar and Grill is located over by UIC on Halsted kiddy-corner from Jamba Juice. It is a great place for college students to come on the weekends to enjoy a great hamburger or other grilled food. With over eight televisions and two projection screens, it is quite busy on game days from watching the Bears to the Blackhawks. The atmosphere is cozy with warm hanging lights, candles set out on the tables in the evening and sport team posters scattered along the brown brick walls and bar counters which is placed in the center of it all.
When you walk in, you are immediately greeted by the waiter/ waitress. However, even though you are greeted, they did not make clear if we were to seat ourselves or be seated by them. Other than the first confusion, the service was great. Our waiter was friendly and even cracked a joke or two. The manager is out in the bar taking orders and making friendly conversation with the customers who walk in.
Now down to the main reason for a review, the food. One word… perfecto. The cod fillet was cooked perfect to where it felt like it was just melting in your mouth. The lettuce was fresh and the tartar sauce had a delicious twist to it. The fries were crisp and not too salty. It was too good to put down.
On game days, they have specials for orders of wings, burgers, fries and other appetizers as well as the alcohol.
Prices on average range from $6 - $10. Highly recommended to come grab lunch or dinner with friends
I think I might stop by there. That burger looks too good.
