We all had the tasting menu with "matching" wines - none of us enjoyed any course apart from dessert. Lobster and carrot 3 ways, anyone? To make matters worse, the lobster tasted like crab sticks. The raspberry sorbet was completely delicious, but it was virtually the only element out of 5 courses which impressed - not good enough. In many... more

This was expected to be one of the highlights of my recent trip to Chicago. It certainly lived up to that! The menu is interesting, seasonal and very well executed. The Wine List is diverse and offers relatively good value given the market this place is aimed at. The view from a table in the front Dining Room over the... more

We walked over from... more

Not being foodies, we chose this restaurant primarily for the romantic setting. Glad we did, as the south-facing windows overlook Lincoln Park's north pond with a great view of the city skyline. The building and decor were also top notch. The menu is very eclectic and I think some of the finer points went over our heads since fine dining... more

Wow! What a wonderful "find." Personable, attentive staff, beautiful setting and decor, and absolutely outstanding food prepared with care and creativity. Fantastic. We had lunch on Friday and on our way to the Sunday Brunch. Everything from appetizers through desert was the best we have had in a long time. more
