If you have been on Randolph in West Loop, you have surely passed one of West Loop's well known sushi restaurants, Sushi Dokku. Sushi Dokku has become a favorite for foodies in the West Loop. But what many don’t realize is that just behind Sushi Dokku, tucked away on Green Street, is a hidden alley door that leads to Booze Box—a swanky, low-lit cocktail bar with a speakeasy vibe. Booze Box offers an impressive menu of cocktails, Japanese beers, and small bites like tuna truffle nigiri and hamachi ponzu, making it a great spot for a post-sushi drink or an intimate nightcap.
Because of Booze Box's limited seating, it is hard to walk-in. While the bar seating offers a chance to snag a spot if you're lucky, it's highly recommended to make a reservation to ensure you get in.
