"For people who want a fancy tasting menu with a beer pairing, there’s Moody Tongue in South Loop. Expect the multi-course meal to have dishes like lobster with black truffle and roast squab with wild strawberries, and to take place in an intimate dining room with comfy leather chairs. But if that feels a bit much, they have a separate bar area that's much more casual. There, you can order from an a la carte menu with things like hokkaido scallops and dry-aged pork chop while drinking a churro porter. But honestly, stopping by just for their 12-layer chocolate cake is a totally reasonable decision." - team infatuation
"Beer-Paired Tasting Menu featuring 15 courses served with culinary-inspired beers by brewmaster-owner Jared Rouben and executive chef James Bingham. The menu highlights include oysters, hamachi nigiri, foie gras, Cobia with Thai green curry, and chocolate textures." - Jillian Dara
"Even if you don’t love beer, the tasting of brews ($75pp) at this 15-course, $145 omakase within the Hilton West Palm is worth the adventure. Some are reminiscent of champagne, some evoke citrus or cherries, but all complement the delicate morsels of raw fish like Japanese sea scallop with Ossetra or stone crab hand roll at this new location of the Chicago-based, Michelin-starred sushi spot. There are only 14 seats, so interaction with the sushi chef is very personal." - Beth Landman
"A MICHELIN Star restaurant in South Loop, known for its creative menu paired with house-crafted brews." - Kevin Chau
"One Michelin-starred brewpub Moody Tongue retains its recognition from the tire company this year. Despite a change in chefs in 2024, the restaurant near McCormick Place kept its one-star status." - Ashok Selvam
