Where To Go On A Date Right Now - Chicago - The Infatuation
"Obelix is located in a quieter part of River North where you can have an upscale date night in relative serenity. It's a French spot from the same team as Le Bouchon, and they have a fusion-y menu with good, creative dishes like the steak tartare with shio kombu and a surprisingly delicious foie gras taco. And while the dining room is filled with white tablecloths and looks like a Swiss chalet, it's not stuffy—the space is busy and upbeat thanks to friendly servers and an energetic hip-hop soundtrack. Reservations are released 30 days in advance. But while dinner seats can be hard to nab (unless you want to eat at 10pm on a Thursday), it's much easier to snag a spot for weekend brunch at 10:30am-2pm, or lunch at 11:30am-2:30pm on Thursday, Friday, and Monday." - adrian kane, john ringor, veda kilaru, nick allen
