On the Grid : Dirk's Fish & Gourmet Shop

"If you're looking for the most unique selection of fresh seafood in Lincoln Park, Dirk's is a must visit. As you step foot in the door, you'll find Dirk and his passionate crew hard at work to make sure you're feeling welcomed and taken care of. Reminiscent of a family gathering, you'll leave with a full belly as they show off fresh samples of their current catches. Even if you're not eating or scoping their vast array of sea creatures, Dirk's is a visual feast for the eyes. It's as if you've stepped aboard their old fishing boat complete with artifacts, nick-nacks, and memorabilia. Make sure to stop by on a Saturday, when they fire up the grill in the front lot for fresh fish samples!" - Stephen Merlo
