Don’t let the name of this West Loop restaurant scare you — Creepies (Creepies) is one of the most talked about new restaurants in Chicago for good reason.

This neo-bistro menu excels in nearly every way, from the fun and quirky design to the effortless menu that wins you over with modernized takes on dishes like oeuf mayonnaise.

For more about the most intriguing dishes and an interview with Jenny Volvovski / Also — the designer who worked on the restaurant’s unique visual branding — check out one of the most recent issues of the New Denizen newsletter that went out last week.
