Best Live Music Restaurants in Irving Park

Always a great experience! We celebrated our 30th anniversary-have been enjoying Geja’s for 35 years!

The Duplex has been on our list for awhile and I’m happy to say it did not disappoint. It all started with our server Josh S., who was fantastic- he was very personable and attentive without being overbearing, made great suggestions and even brought us a couple after brunch cocktails on the house. The chicken and donuts with hot honey were unbelievable. The chilaquiles with chicken tinga were also very good, just not on the same level. The Bloody Mary was just ok- the bacon was a nice touch but no celery, pickle or olives to really give it flavor. Loved the Blind Monkey banana infused cocktail. All that said, what really made it stand out for us (besides Josh) was the live DJ. It was a bit loud but we loved hearing our old school favorites - it just brought such a great energy to the space.

Such a great place to eat!!! In a super cute part of town, there is live music on one side and a bar on the other. The service is incredible, we had such a nice waitress and the staff was so attentive. Very clean and the food was so delicious. A great selection of wines as well. I highly recommend the Priest Fainted.

I recently dined at a charming Turkish Mediterranean restaurant, and it was a delightful experience. The ambiance was warm and inviting, with earthy tones and traditional touches that made for a cozy setting. The menu featured a great variety of fresh, flavorful dishes, from savory kebabs to tender lamb and perfectly seasoned mezze. The hummus and babaganoush were standout appetizers, while the baklava offered a sweet, rich finish to the meal. Service was attentive and friendly, making the experience even more enjoyable. Highly recommended for anyone craving authentic Turkish Mediterranean cuisine!

Portions too small when considering price. They were out of two dishes we were looking forward to, ribs and lamb shanks. Great selection of wines by the glass. Once the restaurant is full, it is too noisy for relaxed conversation. For us seniors, the earlier the better.
