Devon Seafood Grill Chicago

First time eating here and I tried 5 items from the happy hour small plates menu and 2 drinks from the happy hour cocktails list. Great ambiance, whether its for casual after the work outing or a romantic dinner date. The lobster rolls with paprika fries are awesome, roll was warm toasted and buttery, the lobster mix was very flavorful. Firecracker shrimp was amazingly tasty i love spice so for me, this dish was not high on the heat meter but perhaps since i like it hot, i may not be the one to take that tip from, it comes on a bed of slaw which was tasty as well. The calamari, pickle, and carrot mix was okay. I have had better calamari elsewhere but i got this for free by checking in on YELP(thanks)! Also, had the crab cakes i loved all of the fresh lumped crab meat, I personally did not enjoy the accompanying slaw (too tart)! Lastly, for food was a goat cheese bruschetta dish with a salad and balsamic vinaigrette, I shockingly ended up enjoying it! I had the pacific punch and sparkling blackberry martini and LOVED them both! Valet is a friendly fast employee parking your car on the side of the restaurant on the street for $15 for first 2hrs. Which is cool. Or you can do street metered parking. Then I went back about 3 weeks later tried one new appetizer which were the crab and corn cakes from the happy hour menu, and they were just as delicious as the above items. I noticed that the change the happy hour menu food and drinks wise up, I'm not certain how frequently though. This time I opted for street parking which for 2hrs cost me about $6.

This is why we love Chicago Resturant week! It's the only way we could afford this place. So good! And exceptional service! We had the filet, the gumbo, the lobster bisque, caesar salad, seafood platter, oysters, chocolate cake and creme brulee. The food and drinks were excellent! We already plan to go back for their happy hour deals. Highly recommended this place!
