    Bar Lurcat is a favorite spot. I've probably been there 60 times in the past 20 years, sometimes just for a burger, sometimes like tonight, for a special dinner. The ambiance is unique; even though it's a large space, it still feels intimate. It's lovely, ornate details feel almost reserved despite of the proportion of the space. Even while enjoying the view and vastness of the entire beautiful bar/restaurant and despite so many people, somehow conversations can easily be had and heard across a table and you feel like your space in this space is your own. Tonight was better than ever. Everything clicked. The holiday lights lit the space warmly. Our server (Liz) was wonderful and the support team was unintrusive, yet ever present. But even more, the food tonight was the best I've ever had there. Starters of Ginger Fried Rice (11 out of 10), and poached oysters (fantastic) were the perfect openers. I'd eat the rice every day if I could. Then enjoyed entrees of Braised Lamb Shank and Rainbow Trout Meuniere, both excellent, but the trout was delicious with the Meuiere (butter/lemon) sauce. A good combo. Wine list by the glass not quite as as special, and honestly the prices are crazy for the food and wine. The food above and a few glasses of wine for two was over $300 with tip, tax. But for a special night or two a year, it's worth it. Hard to call it a value, but it is a valuable experience.

    Everything was so delicious. We had the tomato basil soup, apple pecan salad, and butternut squash ravioli, all outstanding! The service was fantastic, attentive and helpful. One of my favorite places in the North Loop.
