In the 1830s, Irish immigrants settled in Chicago’s Bridgeport area. As decades passed, the area welcomed other communities into the neighborhood looking for affordable housing. Today, there is a large Latino, Asian, and Italian influence within Bridgeport’s barriers, and a dining scene to match. We list the best spots here.

George’s

Restaurant, Seafood
Chicken Sandwich

When walking through the doors of this restaurant, your eyes will become big because you never expected the large space that is within George’s walls. However, the menu may be bigger than the place itself, offering just about anything you could ever want. Their spicy chicken sandwich is one of the city’s best. It is cooked fresh in-house and makes your mouth water with every bite that you take.

Pancho’s Pistolas

This Mexican gem is located at the northwest corner of 31st and Union. The main floor of Pancho’s Pistolas is tiny, but they have a second floor for larger parties. While they serve almost everything imaginable for its customers, there is no question that their nachos with skirt steak recipe is the true winner.

Pancho’s Pistolas, 700 W. 31st Street, Chicago, IL, USA, +1 312 225 8808

Restaurant, Pizzeria, Italian
Italian Ice

This restaurant may be small, but the flavor in every single meal that they crank out is intense. While their pizza is delicious, their best dish would have to be their breaded Italian Steak on garlic bread with mozzarella cheese and marinara sauce. After eating this, make sure to order a cup or two of their homemade Italian ice and one of their homemade desserts that are cycled out every month or so.
