Super close - at the corner of Berteau and Lincoln). Korean BBQ and some great traditional Korean dishes. BYOB. No reservations. Lines can get long. Strongly recommend DeungShim-Gui (#3 under table top cooking on the menu) and BiBim NaengMyeon (#4 on the noodle section - be careful with the spicy sauce).

Brewpub and bottle shop. Half Acre is best known for Daisy Cutter (https://www.chicagotribune.com/dining/ct-food-daisy-cutter-pale-ale-half-acre-10-years-old-20190415-story.html), but there's a lot more to them than just one beer.

Chicago is blessed with stellar Mexican food. For tacos, the best can be found in the Pilsen or Little Village neighborhoods or at Birrieria Zaragoza near Midway Airport. But if you're looking for something top notch close by, the carne asada tacos at Taqueria el Asadero are the way to go.

You will not find a bigger fan of Neapolitan pizza or Italy than Spacca Napoli owner Jonathan Goldsmith. The pizza is stellar but don't miss the appetizers, especially if their burrata is available.
