Went for a business lunch, I had 2 eggs over medium (yolk was still pretty runny), hash browns (kinda over cooked) & 3-4 slices of bacon (not crispy, just decent). My associate had 2 eggs over easy (cooked perfectly), 3-4 slices bacon (same result) and toast (don't think you can mess up toast). His verdict was the pretty much the same.
Pros: Beautiful place, wonderful atmosphere, good service, up scale menu
Cons: Kinda $$ pricey, portions are on the smaller to kinda medium end, food was just okay.
Conclusion: Perfect place for a nice fast date or get together. Food value in my personal opinion is just not there, but it's still decent. Unfortunately acoustics are kinda bad for business meetings/lunches (at least on Sunday afternoon). But i will give it a 2nd shot.
This is a great French restaurant to have breakfast, lunch or dinner. The dishes are so unique, delicious and they’re not expensive. I would love to suggest some dishes, but honestly every single item in their menu is exceptional. Enjoy this place and bon apetit!!
Nice space. Nice (hipstery) vibe. Good burger but sauce was too sweet on it.
Loved the atmosphere. Staff was super super nice. But service was slow and food was just ok. The drinks were delicious. And the brownie dessert was great! Like amazing great. I'd come back for the drinks and dessert next time and skip the sandwich.
I don't know how to even explain what this place is. Words can not do it justice. This restaurant is amazing. If you want a terrific traditional French Cafe experience, this is the place. If you want the best cured and preserved fish in Chicago, this is the place. If you just want a great meal, this is the place. Just drop whatever you are doing and come here.
