city. His style of cuisine is a masterful blend of contemporary American and

| “Many Chicago foodies think this is one of the restaurants in town…the
restaurant’s relative quiet is one of its biggest assets, there’s also plenty
of space between tables, making this a good spot for business discussions or
romantic whispers…the service is top notch but unobtrusive.” |
