Hyde Park restaurant celebrates classic southern cuisine with side of love and hospitality
CHICAGO (WLS) -- Virtue Restaurant and Bar in Chicago's Hyde Park neighborhood is just one of many local spots modifying their dining space to accommodated customers and COVID-19 safety guidelines.
Chef and owner Erick Williams joined ABC7 Chicago to give us a look at his summer menu.
One dish Williams says you'll want to try is their summer melon salad. He describes it as a wonderful Southern-American interpretation of one of everyone's favorite summer fruits - sweet, juicy melon! It also features fried ham, buttermilk cheese and pepper vinegar.
Virtue opened in November 2018 and is Williams' first solo concept after a more than 20-year career in fine dining.
Hours: Wednesday - Sunday / 4 p.m. - 9.m.

38-seat patio, limited indoor dining, and carryout service are all available, including cocktails to go!
