    Most white people food in a long time. It was a “special valentines menu,”which I will avoid for the rest of my life.

    The service was superb. Our server greeted us with a glass of champagne to celebrate a birthday and was perfectly attentive the rest of the time.

    Our waiter James made my guest who celebrated her birthday feel extra special. He was well informed and very pleasant. Our restaurant week lunch specials were delicious and we ate every bite. Highly recommend!

    Loved our meal and atmosphere. However, we came for the restaurant week lunch menu, and they said they just weren’t doing it that day? Super misleading and disappointing.

    From the Instagram post. Tonight’s #dinner at one of my favorites in #Chicago #BrassTack The most memorable #mushroomtartine for apps, perfect crunch toast and savory balance; entree is lamb and puréed eggplant, tender and the perfect bite combined; dessert is apple tarte tatin, with right amount of sweet and tart and slight crisp layered deliciously. #goldcoast #dining Don’t forget to try #TheExchange for an amazing #bourbon #cocktail a twist on the #classic #oldfashioned
