"It can feel as if half the city is dining in this quiet pocket of West Loop. Conversation and laughter bounce off the hard warehouse floors and large, black-framed windows and travel along a bar that looks almost endless from the front door. The cooking behind all this commotion assuredly plays with Japanese, Chinese, and Thai elements. Think Japanese eggplant with scallion bread, sweet potatoes with Thai green curry, or soup dumpling tortellini with maitake mushroom. Turbot with Swiss chard and kombu beurre blanc was a recent standout. Servers are not fazed by the crowds, while bartenders shake and stir drinks that keep energy levels high. And in stark contrast to the industrial setting, a rooftop herb and vegetable garden helps stock the kitchen." - Michelin Inspector
