The Fat Shallot - Lincoln Park
8.6
The Fat Shallot’s first brick-and-mortar in Lincoln Park turns its food-truck classics into a compact sandwich bar with cocktails, truffle fries, and a short but dialed-in menu. Locals use it for hefty buffalo chicken and Reuben sandwiches before or after the zoo, with counter service that stays efficient even when the line hits the door.
