Ok, sooo… I know I’m not the smartest, but I am always at risqué, and a couple days ago, I realized it was connected to purgatory, I discovered a couple days ago – yes, I am Columbus! I can go on and on about me, wonderful me… Risque, I love you. Great food, bartenders, and the obvious beer selection – if I get fat I will get you! I really don’t have to go anywhere else in the city, Mexican food 2 doors down, purgatory pizza next door, and the infamous risqué café! It’s Nordstrom’s makeup counter for the boozer! Have you considered a country fried bacon eating contest? country fried bacon!

Almost all the bars in or around Wrigleyville are sports themed..not like there is anything wrong with that however if you want something different and fun i would venture into Risque. The food is great, there are so many different types of beers you need to look through a menu to choose one, the music is fitting (none of that club stuff you hear everywhere else) and random b movies playing on the tv, pinball machines and giant pinups. if you like rock and roll, bbq and beer you would love this place. This is definitely the one bar i will come to whenever I am in the area!

I read a few of these reviews and I would have to say that I have never had one bad experience here. I love the beer selection. I love the hot bartenders. I love the food. Awesome pin-ups and great movies. This is a great concept. Rock on. This is my first choice when I' m in Wrigley. THANKS

I was excited about Risque Cafe at first & when I called in my order, they said it was a slow night for them & their driver had nothing to do & that I'd get my food in one hour.

After 1.5 hours, I called to ask about my order. The girl who answered told me that the driver was just packing up my order & that she'd leave with my food right away. I asked why it took so long & the girl unapologeticaly said, "Oh, we're just busy."

Another hour passed & still no food. I don't live that far & the weather was fine. By that point, over 2.5 hours had passed since I placed my order. I called & said my food still hadn't arrived when I was told an hour earlier that the driver was just about to leave. The same girl answered & said, "Hmm... that's weird. You haven't gotten your food yet? I don't know why." I told them I wanted to cancel the order & didn't want my card to be charged & she just said okay. Never once did she apologize or try to offer me anything in return for my trouble, nor did she try to put the manager on the phone.

Shortly after I hung up, the driver came. She asked me if I wanted the food still & I told her that it had been almost 3 hours since I placed my order. She also seemed unapologetic & I had to ask if they would compensate us for our trouble. Finally, she admitted that the wait was ridiculous, told me to keep the food, & that I wouldn't be charged.

I know mistakes happen, but not a single person from Risque said "sorry" or even tried to empathize with my situation. Also, the food was HORRIBLE. The mac & cheese was mostaccioli w/shredded cheese on top & it was over-the-top salty. The broccoli w/beer cheese & fried green tomatoes were lackluster. The worst was the barely cooked corn on the cob that tasted like FISH. I don't know how corn on the cob ends up tasting like fish, but it was intolerable. Clearly, they don't care if they ever have my business or anyone else's business again. This was the worst experience EVER.

I don't think that I can say anything bad about this bar. The service is great, the beer is awesome, and the food is affordable, and tasty. The only thing that might bring this bar down is the occasional run of the mill yuppie that wonders in from barleycorn expecting dollar drafts, over the top service, and non stop jager bombs. The decor is cool, the b movies are badass. I think that short of the Gingerman this is the best bar in Wrigleyville.

How can you not like a place that has a lone graffiti tag on it's bathroom wall that says Stop Plate Tectonics. Which I will note got put up shortly before the resent earthquake.
