In 2019, the brewery relocated and expanded to launch two dining concepts: (1) a lively, à la carte restaurant, THE BAR, and (2) an elevated, intimate fine dining restaurant, THE DINING ROOM, helmed by Executive Chef James Bingham. Since opening, Moody Tongue has been honored to receive Two Stars in the Chicago MICHELIN Guide in 2021, 2022 and 2023.Please note: our tasting menu is exclusively available in The Dining Room; our a la carte menu is exclusively available in The Bar.For parties with 7+ guests, please e-mail contact@moodytongue.com for reservation inquiries as well as information regarding Semi-Private and Private Events.
