"It’s not a high-rise, but this place is great for when you’re afraid of heights or don’t want your sexy windblown look to be too realistic. Lonesome Rose, a Tex-Mex restaurant in Logan Square, has a rooftop patio that’s only one story up, so you get a nice breeze, a solution for your Vitamin D deficiency, and the chance to eat some tasty fish tacos and queso outside." - adrian kane, veda kilaru
"This Logan Square spot has both a sidewalk and rooftop patio, and great Tex-Mex dishes that are easy to share. Get an order of the chili con queso (order extra tortilla chips—they’re excellent), the fish tacos, and any of their cocktails. And then, after you’ve had enough vitamin D and queso, utilize the excuse to leave that you've been formulating for the last 72 hours." - adrian kane
"This Tex-Mex bar and restaurant from Land & Sea Dept. (Parsons, Longman & Eagle) offers an array of tacos, queso fundido, and cocktails — as well as a second-floor rooftop patio decorated with lush greenery. The team opened a second outpost in spring 2023 in Andersonville, but there’s no rooftop space." - Ashok Selvam, Naomi Waxman
"With its airy, plant-filled interior, Lonesome Rose has the atmosphere of a relaxed SoCal spot minus being surrounded by endless traffic or the possibility of seeing Ben Affleck walking his dog. There’s plenty of table seating if you’ve come to tackle a full Tex-Mex meal, but popping in just for a good, decently-priced margarita is something we highly endorse. Come for their simple yet satisfying house margarita, or upgrade to a spicy one for just a dollar more. And during Happy Hour, their frozen margarita is only $6 and is the delicious adult Slurpee that you wish they had at your local 7/11." - john ringor, veda kilaru
"Lonesome Rose has a $70 Tex-Mex inspired Thanksgiving dinner for two. You’ll get a fried turkey leg with chorizo gravy, chicken tortilla soup, vegetables and a salad, and a dulce de leche pie for dessert. Pick-up is on Wednesday and will include reheating instructions." - adrian kane
