"John’s Food and Wine is part of an explosion of Lincoln Park restaurants aiming to reinvigorate the neighborhood’s dining scene. John’s opened in 2023 and unleashed a counter service model that its owners say helps pay their kitchen workers more versus traditional fine dining. Now they’ve unleashed a new tasting menu hoping to give their staff a bigger stage to shine while serving fancier ingredients and allowing patrons, for the first time, to make reservations. Don’t sleep on the martinis and the restaurant’s bar program." - Ashok Selvam
