Hogsalt — Local services in West Chicago Township

Good morning HOGSALT,

My wife and I would like to express our heartfelt thanks for the excellent accommodations at the Monkey Bar on Friday, June 27th. We thoroughly enjoyed the evening and grateful for the stylish atmosphere and dining experience you created.

We are delighted to say that this was our second visit to the Monkey Bar, and it was a true pleasure to reconnect and share the menu, cocktails, and conversations with your team throughout the evening. We also want to extend our appreciation to Atisha for managing our reservations, Pasquale for his excellent service and warm smile, and Reuben for his politeness and professionalism.

Additionally, we want to thank your floor manager, Ted, who visited our table and welcomed us back. Thanks to them and many others at the Monkey Bar, we had another fantastic dining experience. We hope to return in August and would love the opportunity to dine at 4 Charles someday.

We wish HOGSALT and the Monkey Bar a prosperous summer and continued success in delivering exceptional dining and hospitality experience.

Best regards, Rafael Cardona and...
