"After spending time drinking glogg at Simon 's Tavern, we were starving and someone suggested Polygon. After walking out of Simon 's, I was prepared for at least a five minute walk, but then our guide opened the second door we came across. We walked in a little after seven on a Saturday night and were able to immediately secure a table for five.It took a little bit to get our first orders in and water to the table, but far from disruptive. We were only three when we put in our appetizer orders, but became five as they were delivered. Once fully assembled, we ordered drinks and main courses. I highly recommend the bottle of Poochi Poochi sake. It 's a great size and price to share with those you 're with.I was with my sister, her partner, a friend I had met a couple months prior and their new roommate they met through Facebook Marketplace. The meal was delicious and the conversation and connection were even better. It was only natural that we went back to the apartment and played Drawful, where the games slogan was repeated multiple times, I 'm sorry, what?"

The food was decent, though nothing really stood out. I found their lunch prices a bit on the high side for what you receive.

The food was outstanding! There are some truly unique maki rolls on the menu, and the Pad Thai was impressive as well. I'll definitely be returning!

The sushi I had was great, and the interior was aesthetically pleasing. I would go back, and definitely would recommend if someone was going on their first date. View menu

I really enjoyed their Spicy Udon (see picture below). I've also had their Sushi, which is delicious, though it can be a bit expensive if you opt for the special platters. Everything I've tried has been good. The service is average, but I have no complaints overall.

This neighborhood Thai and Japanese restaurant is becoming quite popular. As a vegetarian, I can't speak to the Japanese offerings, but the Thai menu features all the classics. Tofu is used as a substitute in most dishes, and be careful when asking for spicy— they tend to go overboard on the heat. If you do decide to order spicy, take it easy. The Green Curry is definitely the highlight of the menu.

I used to be a genuine lover of Polygon Cafe but lately their food has been so mediocre and is no longer worth the price. This is the 3rd time that I’ve ordered the Beef Pad Se Ew and the noodles were overcooked, mushy and bland It literally had no seasoning. I also tried their Shrimp Thai Fried rice and it was just rice fried with a bunch of onions, a few pieces of tomato and shrimp that tasted like it was boiled or came precooked in the bag. Again, no flavor at all. The only thing we ordered that still tasted okay was the Tom Yum soup. I’m not sure what changed but the food sucks now. On another note, we ordered 2 dishes and the soup and no utensils (we requested) or soy sauce was provided... View menu

Was disappointed after all of the positive reviews. To start with the positive of our meal though, the crab rangoon were delicious. I'm guessing it may be the best for those who dine here to stick to the Thai side of the menu. I had a hankering for sushi, and ordered a couple rolls. The yellowtail in the roll I had was so fishy and not fresh that I actually gagged after eating one (got through the first two because I paid for it but finally had to stop) and lost my appetite. This is coming from someone who has a near iron stomach. The futomaki was alright because it had no raw fish, but overall the other roll we had (with crab and salmon) was also fishy and very average. Maybe I'll come back...

We ordered three entrees and an appetizer, and aside from the rice (which came with an extra charge), nothing was redeemable. The cashew chicken contained tough chunks of dried chicken in a bland, red jelly-like substance. The Pad Se Ewe featured slippery, unappetizing noodles swimming in a gooey sauce. The broccoli and tofu dish was overwhelmingly off-putting. What made the experience even worse was my conversation with the manager when I attempted to return the uneaten food today. After explaining that I had spent $60 on an unpalatable meal, I suggested he try the food himself. Instead, he reprimanded me for not calling him the night before to voice my complaint and dismissed my disappoi...

"Tempesta is arguably one of the best sandwich shops in the city. They make a lot of their meats in house and use high quality ingredients so you know you’re getting the good stuff. Not only can you get a great sandwich, you can purchase most of their meats to go as well as other small artisanal grocery items. I have tried almost every sandwich they have on the menu but my top two choices would be the #1 The Dante and the #2 Yo! Vincenzo! The Dante is their version of a classic Italian sandwich but a bit on the spicier side. The Yo Vincenzo is a chicken parm and I personally think it’s the best chicken parm sandwich in the city. The chicken is perfectly crispy, and they use just the right amount of sauce where it doesn’t get soggy. Both of these sandwiches come on their fresh baguette which helps set them apart from other sandwich spots in Chicago just because of how good it is. The B Franklin is also a great option, and if you’re starving get the Wagyu Pastrami but be warned it is a very heavy sandwich because of that Wagyu. The last pro tip I’ll add in here is order your sandwich ahead of time if you’re doing takeout. This is a very popular spot and is always busy during the lunch rush so if you wait to order until you arrive you may need to wait for 10-15 minutes. That should speak to how good this place is because it’s in such high demand, so if you’re in Chicago make sure you stop in!"
