Excellent food, service and ambiance (we appreciated that the background noise was moderate and we could have a conversation). The 1/2 price appetizers during Happy Hour were amazing!

This was our first visit to Parlay we learned about it through the Chicago Dining Out Passbook and we were very favorably impressed! We were there during Happy Hour, and enjoyed the half priced apps very generous portions. Our entrees were reasonably priced and very good too. Our server Ashley G. was very attentive. We will definitely return.

Parlay at Joy District is such a fun place to get bottomless mimosas and brunch with friends! Their brunch menu is delicious and includes french toast, breakfast burgers, and more! The tater tots were my favorite! There are also a ton of TV's around to watch sports. The music and atmosphere are also so fun!
