"Lowerline isn’t complicated. It’s a Prospect Heights restaurant serving New Orleans-inspired food, and it’s a great place to eat a sandwich, a bowl of gumbo, or some crawfish etouffee. Get a shrimp po’ boy or the muffaletta with parmesan and prosciutto, or go for the gumbo/po’ boy combination if you need some variety. There isn’t much space inside - just a small bar and a couple of tables - so stop by with one other person for a quick weeknight meal that’ll make you want to move across the street." - bryan kim
