Ghost Donkey

I visited Ghost Donkey for the first time and had a really enjoyable experience overall. From the moment we sat down, our waitress Uvia was outstanding — attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable. She checked in just the right amount and made the experience feel welcoming without being overbearing. The drinks were excellent — definitely not watered down. You could taste the quality, and they were well balanced and worth every sip. I had two drinks, and the pricing felt fair for the quality and location. For starters, had the steak tacos (a bit salty), but were a solid choice. Chips and salsa was great. The atmosphere really stood out — nice décor, great music, and a lively but comfortable vibe that works for both casual outings and social nights. Parking was also easy, with a convenient parking garage nearby, which is always a plus in the city. Overall, Ghost Donkey offers strong drinks, decent starter food options, and great service in a fun setting. Just a small notch away from five stars, but definitely a place I’d return to and recommend. Note: they are a bit hard to find. They’re located above the sushi restaurant right on the corner. There’s a door that you can easily miss.

Very fun bar around downtown Chicago. The drinks were good on happy hour. Chips and guac were great. I went on a Thursday night, and they were playing bachata and cumbia and thennnn they started playing loteria. Super fun! And everyone was very nice.

Music and service were really great! The workers came regularly to check-in, and they came with BUBBLES!! and shots to celebrate a birthday in my group. I made a reservation just to ensure seating for the birthday celebration, but there are so many seats that walk-ins would be fine. The entire place is decorated with really pretty lights, and it was just a nice atmosphere. I would say that the drinks/shots were a miss though🥴. On the other hand, the tacos were delicious!!!

Visited Ghost Donkey in Chicago recently and had a great experience. The atmosphere is lively with a fun energy that makes it a great spot to hang out with friends and colleagues. The drinks were well-crafted and the menu had a good variety to choose from. What really stood out, though, was the service from the manager, Panagiotis. He was incredibly attentive, checked in at the right moments, and made sure everything was running smoothly without being overbearing. It’s clear he genuinely cares about the guest experience, and he made our experience a noticeable difference. Great vibes, solid drinks, and top-notch hospitality. Would definitely come back.
