Alhambra Palace is an institute of Middle Eastern fine dining and entertainment that came together after the owner built his authentic collection of art and artifacts to furnish the establishment.

The​ ​Cubby​ ​Bear

It’s not all cheap beer and baseball games. The famous Cubby Bear just across the street from Wrigley Field is usually a sports mecca, and it’s likely even to grow in popularity due to the Chicago Cubs’ recent success. But every Sunday night for just $10, they offer DJs spinning salsa music, live bands, and even lessons at 7:30 PM. Expand your horizons without ever leaving the comfort of your favorite Wrigleyville bar.
