    It was my first time trying publican quality meats, I will say every dish was worth every bite! The surprise was how tasty the tomato soup was and how even the pickle spear made you want to have another as it had a little kick! The soup and the porchetta bread were excellent together! I will say that the service was a little slow but, the server was very backed up so we understood! A nice side note is if you go to the bathroom you can see the area where the food was being made which was really cool!

    Wonderful and so Tasty! I was craving a sandwich and after a quick search Publican Quality Meats seemed like the best choice. This place has amazing reviews and very well deserved. Here I had the most delicious turkey sandwich I've ever had in my life. I also ordered a soup that was so delicious and hearty, I don't remember the name but it had sausage, Lima beans, kale and Parmesan cheese. My daughter had the chicken parm sandwich and it was to die for. The food here is beautiful, fresh and so flavorful. We enjoyed everything about this place, the food, the friendly staff, the gorgeous ambiance. Loved! Loved! Loved! I'm going to continue to go back to Publican because I want to try every single item in their menu. I highly recommend.

    My companion and I were in Chicago for business and invited a couple of colleagues and friends to dinner at The Publican. What a wonderful choice. We had a last-minute addition of two to our party, and I contacted the restaurant the morning of the meal. They were very quick to communicate that they could accommodate this late request during their busiest hour. That kind of dedication is appreciated. The dishes at the publican are served family style, and we started off with the charcuterie plate, the bread and spread, beef, fat frites, burrata and of course a couple orders of the pork rinds. The appetizers came out as they were ready and were all very good. The pork rinds are covered in a wonderful seasoning and are the best pork rinds I've ever had. The pimento cheese and smoked fish dip were also very good. The full charcuterie plate was full of fresh meat and cheese. The country pate and salami were particularly good. For the mains, we ordered the Porchetta, pork belly, chicken, and salmon Crudo. The accompanying sides were the broccolini and barbecue carrots. Have a table of eight it was hard for us to settle on a favorite. The salmon was very fresh and covered in a nice yogurt sauce. The Porchetta, served over grits. Had a nice light flavor for quite a heavy dish.. The pork belly is never disappoints because it is bacon. The smoked apple butter and rosemary vinaigrette really brought out the flavor of the bacon. My favorite is the chicken. It is half of a chicken and some summer sausages on a bed of fries. The chicken is some of the juiciest most flavorful I've ever had. Whatever they brine it in and however, they cook it is amazing. The side, should not even be called sides. The barbecued carrots are amazing. And I don't like cooked carrots. The broccolini had a nice char which was complimented by the herb tahini. Our waitress was very attentive, quickly had our drinks brought to the table and was very responsive on refills. She obviously knows the menu and had some nice suggestions. Since it was families style, she saved us from over ordering some sides and starters. Since it is family style, you get to or a lot of things and try a lot of things without filling up. I do like the restaurants, decor and staff. This is a wonderful Chicago eatery and never disappoints.
