Moody Tongue Brewing Company

-Grubbing in Chicago
Elevated Bar Food in the South Loop

I stalled this past year on making NYE dinner plans like I do every year. As I browsed a list of spots I'd like to try I noticed a few openings at Moody Tongue Brewery in the South Loop. Aside from the fact they brew beer here they also sport two separate kitchens one of which is fast becoming one of the city's most coveted reservations. That said there were no openings for the Moody Tongue Tasting Room that night. I would like to check it out and will plan on doing so soon. In the meantime they also have an ala carte kitchen menu where you can eat above average bar food and drink their beer.

Newly Opened in South Loop

Some trusted people in Chicago food have spoke highly of the tasting menu. So I kind of figured the same execution was being put into the regular kitchen albeit with a slightly less adventurous menu. This is a brewery after all. That said the menu is much more mature than your typical sausage and burger options. Yes they do have a burger but it's a pimento cheeseburger. A cult classic among chefs these days. I didn't get to try it but I would come back for it based on the dishes we did try. Chicken Liver pate was served with a super fresh side of housemade pickled vegetables in the style of giardiniera. The pate itself was ricos and they gave us plenty of extra bread. I didn't love the sweet potato agnolotti which was the long cigar shaped kind. But it's no longer on the menu if their website is up to date. Mussels are mixed with one of their house beers and served with toasted baguettes. Nice batch of mostly plump specimens. Moody Tongue does a whole fried branzino which caught both my eyes and hers. Whole fried fish is one of our favorite dishes when done right. Theirs is served with a Calabrian chili relish. Well done. It had a nice fry job and the relish wasn't too overpowering. I also tried a beer sampler but couldn't tell you which ones. As far as bar food goes this was terrific.
