Matilda has been a neighborhood favorite since 1994 . Known for their extensive craft beer and cocktail collections , they have a menu that will pair perfectly with just about any drink you order ! In their downstairs speakeasy babyAtlas , enjoy an all-night dance party with live DJs .
During the day , Merkle ' s is a relaxed neighborhood bar with a large rotating beer list and tasty American pub eats , perfect for watching the Cubs play . At night , live music takes center stage , and you can enjoy dancing the night away ! Regular events throughout the week like pub trivia and happy hour specials make Merkle ' s a local go-to .
Mexican cuisine consists of many different regional styles depending on the climate of the area . Northern Mexico ’ s desert climate supports a large livestock population which led to the region ’ s meat-based dishes . The ranching culture ’ s historical use of wood fire and outdoor cooking is what developed the distinct smoky flavors that are still loved today . This delicious tradition and generations-old family recipes from Moe ’ s Cantina founder Sammy Sanchez is the foundation of the restaurant ’ s extensive list of locally inspired tacos , steak and mesquite grilled skewers !
