"Woodwind has an unappealing location, on the 18th floor of a building on the Northwestern Hospital campus. But this restaurant has great food that’s worth a kind-of-weird walk through a hospital lobby. The menu includes creative dishes that sound strange but are actually delicious—like corn gnocchi with poached lobster and pomegranate-roasted squash with chunky peanut butter. The space has a beautiful view of downtown too, which makes you forget about that gurney you saw on your way here." - adrian kane, veda kilaru, john ringor
