Feedback
The menu, while compact, is quite upscale and everything was beautifully prepared and presented. We started with the mussels, which were fantastic. For my main course, I had an incredible Chilean sea bass. The chef kindly swapped out some of the sides to accommodate a food issue I had. The portions were generous, and I’ve heard the bread is exceptional! To top it off, absinthe helped us unwind before braving the cold Chicago winds once again.
The service was excellent and the food was delicious, but it was quite loud for my age group. There wasn't much of a view, and the ambiance felt lacking. However, the staff were wonderful!
