From the kitchen to the bar, everything we serve is defined by a passion for exploring unique flavor combinations. Wood is more than a name: our wood-fired oven is at the heart of it all, enhancing a dynamic menu of small-plate, American fare, made with the peak midwest farm produce each season has to offer. Though the dishes regularly change, they are defined by a few constants: meat is butchered in-house from humanely-raised animals; vegetables are drawn from local family farms; and all pastas and sausages are freshly made. Lead by our talented Executive Chef Devin Kreller, who is a 6-time Michelin Bib Gourmand winner, Chef Devin uses French-dominated cooking techniques combined with multicultural inspirations such as Asian and Italian to create new dishes.

Located in the heart of Chicago Boystown, we're known for our brunches, and house butchered meats. Come see why our restaurant has been around for 12 years.

For reservations over 10 guests, please call us at (773) 935-9663.

    Service was a bit chaotic - there was some confusion around orders and allergy requirements.

    The food was over priced & nothing to brag about. Radiatore Ai Funghi was bland (tasteless) and what made the dish even more awful was the diluted Parmesan cream sauce. One of our friends ordered lamb which he said was dry. I lucked out with my dish - the roasted chicken breast with pot pie. The chicken was juicy and perfectly roasted. I was quite impressed with the veggie pot pie with flaky buttery crust and delicious vegetables. Overall, the food was okay. The service and the servers were exceptional.

    The KFC (Korean chicken entree) and beet salad were the best I've ever had. Worth it for those 2 items alone. AND they have awesome mocktails so for a non-drinker I had an aperol spritz that was also worth coming back for.

    We’ve always enjoyed Wood. On this last visit, our food came almost 1 hour after we ordered. There were only three of us. My son ordered a Wood burger and my sister and I ordered the tocino breakfast. The restaurant was not packed and not very busy. I’m not sure why service was so slow. When my son got his order, he got regular fries instead of his specific request of breakfast potatoes. They gave him a complimentary plate of bfast potatoes which was very nice.
