Baffled at how they have never heard of it yet or that it is the name that is trickling & tickling musical ears around town. Acoustics: well placed, technology is so new, and the place isn't boisterous so you feel like you are among the select few who get to watch the best Chicago musicians up close. The walk in is out of the ordinary & romantic

It has an oddly cult following (at least in the US) of people who have heard about it but never been. Check it off your list and help pass along the legend. The service is among some of the most down to earth and friendly that I've experienced too.
