Some of my Favorite Restaurants


This list concentrates on restaurants relatively close to the center of Chicago that really offer something extra special to the out of town visitor (and even to natives). It is by no means complete -- you'll find a lot more good places listed in Zagat's and Chicago Magazine, but only about half of my favorites are in either of those very reliable guides!

All restaurants listed take plastic unless otherwise noted. All have good non-smoking seating, and except as noted, all have good menu choices for vegetarians.
