Devon Seafood Grill - River North - Chicago, IL 60611 | Metromix Chicago

Devon Seafood Grill



Neighborhood: River North
39 E Chicago Ave

Chicago, IL 60611
312-440-8660
Price range: $$$ ($16-$25)

This seafood-focused spot is from the same company behind Braxton's Seafood in Oakbrook. It neatly fills this stretch of Chicago Avenue's gap between overly fussy restaurants (RL, NoMi) and greasy pub or fast food joints. Business diners will appreciate semi-secluded booths downstairs. But folks looking a comfy spot to have a post-work drink will like the big, wraparound bar. But remember, the name is pronounced "DEV-in" -- as in the British coastal city; not "dev-ON," as in the North Side avenue in Chicago.
