Folklore is a delightful treasure in Wicker Park! The Beef Empanadas are a must-try, packed with flavor, while the Chorizo Trio offers a vibrant taste of Argentinian cuisine. Cozy ambiance, excellent service, and even some rare Belgian beers make this spot perfect for dinner with friends or a romantic date...

I recently dined at Folklore and was thoroughly impressed! šŸ½ļø The atmosphere is cozy and trendy, making it perfect for a date night or dinner with friends.

We kicked off with the Beef Empanadas - absolutely delicious! The Chorizo Trio was a standout, especially the blood sausage. For my main, I had the filet, which was incredibly tender and full of flavor.

The service was attentive, and I loved the selection of Belgian beers. Don't miss their El Che - itā€™s a monster of a dish! Great experience overall! Will definitely be back. šŸŒŸ
