About Hearty

Set in a storefront in Chicago's Lakeview neighborhood, Hearty boasts a menu and design evocative of the warmth and comfort of mid century America. A hand crafted mahogany bar is paired with sea-glass subway tiles and exposed brick. Walls of burnt orange and lime set off a wall-mounted fireplace… and bespoke stained glass art. The vision for ‘Hearty’ is to honor the foods that have become a part of our American culture while contemporizing them for the modern palate. Chef Dan Smith of Food Network fame offers Tuna Noodle Casserole updated with Seared Ahi and Sage Cream Egg Noodles and a Rabbit Sausage Corn Dog with a rich Ale Syrup. 'Hearty' is proud to offer a wine list comprised solely from domestic vineyards, a Craft Cocktail Menu and American Microbrews. 'Hearty' is that rare restaurant that appeals to both the gourmand and the kid in each of us. "Comfort...revisited"
