Izakaya Shinya

# Izakaya Shinya Wicker Park's best-kept secret for 2am yakitori runs—this authentic izakaya nails the rowdy Tokyo late-night vibe with charred skewers, proper Japanese street food, and cocktails that actually matter. The counter seating forces you into conversation with locals and the chef, which is exactly the point. If you're serious about nightlife that doesn't default to the same West Loop spots, this is non-negotiable.
