"If you’re looking for fine dining food without its accompanying snoozy tablecloth setting, check out Oxalis in Prospect Heights. In addition to a $105 seasonal tasting menu, they now offer an outdoor-only a la carte menu in their courtyard where everything costs less than $32. Oxalis works well regardless of whether you want to enjoy a special seven-course menu with wine pairings, or split a whole rainbow trout and heirloom beans made with tarragon and escape with a bill under $100." - Hannah Albertine
