automatically summarizedBig Star is a restaurant in Chicago that pays tribute to the honky-tonk bars of Bakersfield, California. The venue is located in the Wicker Park and Wrigleyville neighborhoods and offers a lively, laid-back atmosphere. The menu features authentic Mexican street food, especially tacos, which the kitchen gives a fresh spin. The focus is also on an extensive bourbon program with exclusive House Barrel Selections, as well as beer and margaritas. The music ranges from classic country to 1970s rock and roll, played by the bar crew.

Old auto repair garage converted into one of the most popular Mexican (gourmet style) street food spots in the city. One of the best places in the city for people watching, the bar/restaurant can be unbelievably crowded and it might be better just to grab a few tacos to go from the carryout window and watch all the hipsters/yuppies running around the Damen stop about while waiting for your food.
