Review: The Scout, Part 2

At some point, hopefully before the football season starts, you'll get a chance to check out The Scout in the South Loop. If you do, don't be afraid to try something out of your comfort zone. More than likely, you'll enjoy your picks. You can read my review of The Scout by clicking here.

Here is my take on a few other dishes I tried during another visit. The Scout's prices are moderate so expect to shell out $10 to $19 for a meal, which usually includes two sides.

I've had wine and beer at the eatery, but I didn't pay enough attention to the libations to rate the offerings. The red wine was fine; the dark craft beer I tried was a bit too bitter for my taste.

Other Items:

Black Angus Pot Roast

Black Angus Pot Roast: Get it. No discussion really needed. This flavorful roast rests atop mashed red-s
kin potatoes. I've had this one twice, both times equally delicious and filling. Price: $14.

Slider Trio

Slider Trio: This sampling of buffalo chicken, angus pot roast and short rib teaser has more bun than meat. Make sure it's served hot. For the price, you're better off getting a complete meal. Price: $12.

El Mirano: This is a decent burger made with chorizo, fontina cheese, roasted poblano peppers and avocado. I didn't taste much of the chorizo however. The avocado topping gave the burger a buttery finish. I swapped regular fries for the sweet potato fries. Price: $12.
