"Chicago’s venerable Theater on the Lake, right off the Fullerton exit on Lake Shore Drive, has been repurposed into a restaurant. Find New American fare inside a large venue ideal for private events. This is good for picky eaters, but with burgers, tacos, and sandwiches the food’s not the star — it’s the view and historic venue. Make a reservation through OpenTable." - Samantha Nelson, Naomi Waxman, Ashok Selvam
