“Chicago restaurateurs Billy Lawless and Branko Palikuca have teamed up to open the Dawson, a handsome bi-level gathering spot in the city’s West Town neighborhood. The eatery’s name is a nod to the Dawson brothers, who owned a 19th-century fireplace-mantel plant that once stood nearby.

The Dawson has everything you can ask for in a gastropub—a convivial vibe, clever bites, and great libations. The Surfer Rosa for instance (with tequila, mezcal, blood orange and chilies) serves to loosen up diners jonesing for big flavors. Inside, globe lights shine like beacons through the façade’s lofty windows. And, a wraparound bar attracts spirited guests like moths to a flame. A communal table and open kitchen with counter offer multiple opportunities for meeting, greeting, and eating.“
