Lakeview / East Lakeview​のベストアメリカ料理レストラン

Fantastic as ever in every way. Delicious gluten free and vegetarian options and they ask if you need “no contact” with anything with gluten in preparing the gluten free food. I’ve loved this place for decades and it is still popping!

We went for the pop up Santa Baby. It was AMAZING. COOLEST Christmas ambiance ever. I have never seen anything like it. We went with our teens before 8 pm when families are allowed. Although it was a 30 minute uber from where we were staying in downtown Chicago, it was totally worth it. Food was ok. Not amazing but everything else made up for it.

We were seated 10 minutes early for our 1pm reservation. Out server arrived at our table immediately and greeted us. We put in drink orders then when she came with those we ordered our appetizer and meal. We thought it might take a bit of time as the place was full but it was all out quickly. Ordered thr pot pie and braised beef and both good. This is where service got slow but I think they seated 3 or 4 new tables in her area at once so she was busy. Ordered thr mint cheesecake and that was amazing. Bill was $80 plus tax so not really bad for 2 people to have a nice meal with drinks and dessert. The tree and Christmas decorations were beautiful and we lucked out and were seated near the tree. Will make it a tradition each year to go back. Lucked out on the reservation because we missed it when it opened. So glad we got one!

Wood is fast becoming one of my favorite restaurants in Chicago! There menu is ever-changing and highly unique. The cocktails are also exceptional. Our server last night was fabulous!

I just ordered the R burger. I didn’t realize how huge it was, but it was definitely worth the price. And my server was super kind. I already made another reservation for next week.
