€€€€ • Izakaya • Portage Park
Fork & Coin is both a destination restaurant and the place Portage Park has been missing. The menu takes real swings and lands them. Every plate we ordered was sharp, balanced, and clearly prepared with intent. The room is cozy, warm, and built for sharing, with a bar and patio that carry the same relaxed energy. Service was attentive without hovering. Five stars. Book it before the rest of the city catches on.
