The River/Lake Architecture Tour with Wendella is one of our favorite things to do in Chicago. We have been on it countless times and learn something new every time. Highly recommend going to enjoy a few drinks, the view of the city’s stunning skyline and historical buildings.
Where it all began—This is where we had our first date! This small Italian spot has a huge menu.
This is our favorite neighborhood bar and where we celebrated our engagement party. They have GREAT bar food. Don’t leave without trying the mac and cheese bites!
Located along the Chicago River, Pizzeria Portofino offers stunning waterfront views, pizzas, and refreshing cocktails. We have had many family and friend gatherings here and always have a great time. Reservation needed!
