Best Restaurants with a Tasting Menu in South Loop

My favorite place in Chicago! Their truffle mushroom pizza and gnocchi are incredible

Roberto was a great server. He was very knowledgeable of the entire menu and really made our experience memorable!

Love La Serre! Valet guys are great. Hosts are welcoming. Excellent food and service every time. whether in dining room or at the bar. George at the bar is awesome. Craft cocktails are pretty and tasty. I appreciate the complimentary hot bread that you often can’t get anymore. The tuna Crudo is the best I’ve ever had in my life. Highly recommend! I would love to eat that every day and I would love to know the sauce that it is swimming in because it is absolutely incredible!!! The escargot is good, nice garlicky sauce and I appreciate they give you bread for dipping. Love the apple kale salad with feta cheese. Generous portion, tastes Perfect! I’ve enjoyed many entrées at previous visits which were all fantastic, as well. The pasta with lemony clam sauce is delicious. (Wanna try the bacon pasta next time). Can’t go wrong with pretty much anything there. Re desserts: LOVE the bruleed French toast.and the bread pudding - both with gelato. A cappuccino to end the night. ALL fantastic! ! Only thing I’d change: for tables of 2, one has to look at the booth wall. Maybe consider repositioning tables (and yes I know many Restos have same problem) or angle mirror above booth side so regardless of seat, all diners can see the beautiful lively room.

Everything was great from the moment we arrived. We were promptly greeted, our table was ready; in fact we were brought to our table by our server Drew who was fabulous!! He immediately asked about drinks and made some great recs! The signature Old Fashion is wonderful. Appetizers were quickly ordered (Flaming Bacon, Oysters & Shrimp Cocktail); then he explained the entire menu with very helpful suggestions/recommendations . The food was great and the amount was perfect which was important because we did not want leftovers since we were heading directly to the theater. We had Filet with Lobster, Scallops and a side of Brussel Sprouts. Also Drew was very conscious of our timing since we had to get to a show. Finished with Espresso Martinis and Chef’s creation Crème Brûlée!! So good! So good!!

I cannot count the number of visits we've had to The Girl and the Goat, but it continues to be a favorite for both personal and professional dining. I brought three colleagues, who have never been, to the restaurant for dinner. One diner is vegetarian, but there are menu offerings and options available to provide them with enough to eat. All three were quite impressed with the food. My only complaint would be our table was right next to the kitchen, which can be loud. However, we made due, and had an enjoyable meal. Service is always very good, and the cocktails are fun. If you're interested in dining, make sure you book way ahead, as there is almost no chance to get a table day of.
