Text 17 Apr Rock Bottom Brewery

Recently traveled to river north and ate/drank at rock bottom brewery.  We had a pizza and their homemade beer.  Both were good.

 I know this has nothing to do with Chicago or Food (my favorite thing).  But its a great commercial and I want to share it with you.

Leona's

We ordered from Leona’s after a recent basketball game and it was great.  I had been thinking about it all week and had to order it again… That good!  Prices are very reasonable and the menu is versatile.  They have pizzas with a laundry list of toppings.  The sangwhiches are all great, I would recommend the Hickory sandwhich, which has chicken, bacon, swiss and BBQ sauce.  Go do yourself a favor and order it, you wont be disapointed.

Food: B+

Service: B (they messed up my friends order, but i’ll let it slide)

Decor: C (Only stopped in to pick up my food, it seemed pretty meek)
