This slick little bar is tough to spot from the street. Only a neon sign above the front French doors distinguishes it from any other Chicago Avenue storefront. Inside, however, is a dark, candlelit room with a long bar snaking along the east wall, a back room with high-top tables and a full kitchen kicking out some impressive eats. Cleos regulars regard the place as a bit of a find, as it's off the beaten track of the Wicker Park/Bucktown club scene but still packs some polish and attitude.
