    We had a wonderful holiday dinner. The staff made us feel so welcome. The cocktails, wine and dinner were all outstanding. The steak frites are a family favorite! Probably my favorite restaurant on the Northshore!

    We had a wonderful Day After Christmas dinner at the CG. It was a little less busy than usual, but the staff was wonderful and the food was excellent as usual. The restaurant is a little formal looking when you enter, but the feeling is warm and comfortable. Great place for a couple or a family - as in this case for us.

    North Pond is an absolute gem. From the moment we stepped in and gave our name at the host stand, we were warmly welcomed, setting the tone for an exceptional evening. The atmosphere is intimate and inviting, with the beauty of Lincoln Park providing a stunning backdrop. Our server was knowledgeable and engaging, taking the time to walk us through the menu and wine pairings with care and enthusiasm. The tasting menu was nothing short of spectacular—each dish showcased the chef’s creativity and meticulous attention to detail. The flavors were inventive and harmonious, and the wine pairings elevated every course beautifully. My wife and I always cherish our time at North Pond. It’s not just a meal; it’s an experience that lingers with you long after the evening ends. If you’re looking for a restaurant that seamlessly blends artistry, flavor, and a sense of place, North Pond is a must-visit.

    The food is always great at Avli. It was very busy and the noise levels were quite high but bearable. Maybe they could play some music to drown out some of the chatter. We had the hummus and eggplant spread. Both were great. Big portions. We also had the mini chicken skewers which were delicious, and the meatballs. They were quite good although the tomato sauce on top was quite tart and tasted a bit like tomato paste. My husband liked it more than me. For dessert we had the orange pie which is actually orange cake. It is delicious. We also tried the cheesecake and chocolate filo sampler. Both were very good. We love Juan who has been our server in the past. Very attentive and friendly.
