The Best Restaurants In The West Loop - Chicago - The Infatuation

"Smyth offers a fantastic tasting menu experience in a casual atmosphere. It’s $325 for about 10 courses, and while it’s expensive, it doesn’t feel formal. In fact, the dining room feels like someone’s very nice family home, with wildflower-filled vases on top of bare wooden tables, and an open kitchen with drawings on the fridge. You’ll find dishes like beef tongue served alongside brioche doughnuts, and a cured-egg yolk meringue dessert that’s in the running for one of the best ways to finish a meal, ever." - adrian kane, john ringor, nick allen, veda kilaru, sam faye
