The menu is great, the food is fresh and the ambiance is inviting. The service is superb, from the girls at the front to the bar to the waiters. Make a point this summer to have dinner with friends on the patio...it is an oasis away from the hustle and bustle of the city...even with Halsted just steps away. You will be delighted. See you there!

Well maybe it's not a secret anymore: Giuseppe Tentori is a genius. In case the Michelin star didn't clue you in, we're here to vouch. Who else could take licorice, pickled celery root and barbeque sauce, and make us order seconds? Somehow it all works - incredibly well - when Giuseppe puts it all together on a pork belly. And you thought that play across the street at Steppenwolf was the hottest ticket in town.
