Tied House is a stylish Lakeview gem dishing out elevated New American cuisine and craft cocktails in a chic, airy space complete with a cozy outdoor fireplace.
"It might come as a surprise that this sleek, good-looker shares the same owners as next-door Schubas Tavern. And like a tavern, its menu paints broad strokes to appeal to a wide range. Start off with a smoked trout and artichoke dip served with house-made salt and vinegar chips before tucking in to the butternut squash schnitzel. Baked, breaded and fried butternut squash served over spaetzle tossed in brown butter with sauerkraut, hazelnuts and cranberries is a delicious riff on the classic. . Of course, this kitchen can do so much more and flexes its culinary muscles in other dishes, like fried sweet potato with salsa macha and cumin yogurt or a winning Spanish mackerel set on coconut-braised garbanzo beans and garnished with fistfuls of parsley and mint." - Michelin Inspector
"A stage makes Tied House a perfect place for dance parties featuring live music or corporate gatherings with presentations taking advantage of the onstage projector and flatscreen TVs. The space’s three rooms each have their own bar serving a wide variety of cocktails, wine and regional craft beers. There’s a dressing room to cater to weddings and a photo booth to capture memories of the celebration. Number of guests: 36-250." - Samantha Nelson, Eater Staff
"The typical caution against filling up on bread before dinner flies out the window at Tied House, in Lakeview, where Parker House rolls are served with addictive sides like chicken liver mousse, green tomato marmalade, and buttery bone marrow. Some of the best entree options are on the lighter, side, including vegetarian dishes like maitake mushrooms in a shoyu and leek broth that’s packed with umami. If there’s room, though, meat-based items (milk braised pork with cabbage salsify and apple, short rib with black garlic and yellow foot chanterelle mushrooms) is worth the extra calories. "
"They would later raze the Harmony Grill, the restaurant next to Schubas and replace it with the more upscale Tied House, which opened in 2018." - Ashok Selvam
"Tied House, the restaurant attached to music venue Schubas, is back open for carryout and delivery via Caviar. It’s selling meal and cocktail kits." - Naomi Waxman
