Firewater Saloon Edison Park - Chicago

The way they built this bar makes it super difficult to actually get to the bar. There are two built-in immovable long tables that make the bar area extra filled. During the last summer they closed the street in front of the bar so that you can drink outside, this is the best time to go there. Food: 3/5

After stumbling over FS on cards. We were fascinated by their western dinner menu enough to stop while happy hour on Wednesday. Very open sports bar atmosphere, and it seems able to have a decent enough large amount that could come for drinks on weekends. As I mentioned above, we went to Happy Hour, so appetizers were half price, and we ordered a trio of them. All are shown above. The potato skins were very acceptable in size and taste. Snake bites (Bacon wrapped jalapeno with cream cheese) were about average, and the BBQ Pulled Pork Egg Rolls were delicious, but only 2 per order. Avoid the Jambalaya (picture). It was terrible. It tasted just like generic business bought Taco Seasoning. Far from authentic and out was very soup and probably closer to a gumbo than Jambalaya. I'm very bitter about it because I was excited to try, and I hate Taco season. The server, a young lady, was at best Spotty. Didn't imagine or ask how our dishes were. However, it was attentive with water replenishment so that it receives credit for it. I'm fascinated by the bride and the wings, but I'm not sure I'd come back.

Fantastic food, friendly staff and cheap food! 100% would go back and recommend.

Eating was decent, service not good at least our server. Saturday afternoon restaurant ~20% full best and we still had to go to find our own ketchup / spices? What did she do with so few tables? Wait for bill, and half of us have been running since the parking meter. Wouldn't be my first choice in the future. Food: 4/5
