I would give Tru 10 stars if I could :) That's how outstanding our experience at Tru was. I chose this restaurant to celebrate our anniversary and was a little apprehensive as my husband is a vegetarian. But they assured me when I made reservations…More »

My rating is 3 and a half sars. We went here for lunch. Their $22 lunch 3 course pre- fixe menu is the best deal in town. Its a great option to experience Blackbird if you dont want to break the bank.
We had 3 vegetarians at our table, and we were…More »

I might be one of the last ones in Chicago to try this restaurant, and after 1000+ reviews, I still want to put in my 2 cents. I am not sure why I waited sooo long to try out this place.
I have to admit - I am a Top Chef fan and loved Stepanie Izard…More »

I had high expectations for this place - and it totally delivered!! It is a tiny, blink-and-you-will-miss-it kind of place. But inside it is a very cosy and cute restaurant.
We made reservations for a Tuesday night and was still full, I can imagine…More »

Took my husband for his birthday and ordered their pre-fixe menu with the wine pairings. Expensive-yes! But worth it. The food was fabulous and the amuse bouche were delicious. And we love Dale.

Went to Cafe Spiaggia with my husband last night for the restaurant week. They should drop the "Cafe" from their name, because it somehow makes it sound very casual. I know its not like the Spiaggia, but still a pretty good fine - dining restaurant.…More »
