Moonstar Kitchen and Bar
There’s a new reason to visit Old Town: Moonstar Kitchen & Bar is now open at 1617 N Wells Street! Brought to you by Vaughan Hospitality, the team behind Corcoran’s Grill & Pub next door, Moonstar blends neighborhood comfort with an elevated menu of shareables, cocktails, wine, and whiskey. (And yes - it’s right across the street from Second City!)
Moonstar Bar
Moonstar’s menu is built around plates made for sharing. Guests can dig into options like crab wontons, seared scallops, baked crab dip, wagyu sliders, rib eye steak, truffled burrata, an Indian-style yellow curry, and more. With flavors ranging from comforting to adventurous, there’s something for everyone at the table.

The bar program keeps things just as exciting, offering a strong mix of classic cocktails, curated wines, and a wide whiskey selection. Even better, Moonstar’s Happy Hour runs daily from 4-6 PM, featuring $9 wines, $10 cocktails, and select bites - making it a new go-to for after-work hangs.
Moonstar Happy Hour is 4-6 PM every Monday through Friday!
One of Moonstar’s best-kept secrets? Its charming back patio. Tucked away from the buzz of Wells Street, it’s the kind of spot you’ll want to linger over drinks, small plates, and conversation.
