Just down the street from the bustle of Navy Pier, nestled between the beautiful Bennet Park and the Chicago River, is Pinched on the River. A unique and secluded hideaway from the noise and rush of the street above. Pinched on the River offers a heightened experience of Mediterranean inspired food. A full wine and craft beer bar welcomes weary travelers and the original flavors of Pinched Mediterranean are the cornerstone for the eclectic menu.
History
Established in 2012.
The Pinched experience started with a question. Is a healthy, delicious meal with infinite combinations of flavors in an atmosphere that was approachable and enjoyable really that difficult to make? At Pinched, you choose your journey. You decide the cultural mash up that you'd like to experience with the confidence that each flavor blends exceptionally with the others. Pair the fresh natural greens and hummus with marinated chicken shawarma, a zesty cabbage slaw, and a citrus-based black bean and corn salad. Or start with a warm fluffy pita and fill it with homemade tabbouleh, poblano pepper hummus, and round it out with a pinch of tzatziki sauce (you won't need much). All of our ingredients are prepared fresh every morning and throughout the day, so you always have the crispiest greens and the juiciest vegetables for your meal. Pinched is all about experiencing everything you can in life, with a pinch of this and a pinch of that.
