With its Art Nouveau detailing, cozy leather banquettes, and dark woods, Ambria is among the city’s most romantic dining options. And the dining experience matches the style here as chef Gabino Soltelino prepares contemporary French meals with a sophisticated understatement. Service is formal and the sommelier is one of the best in Chicago.

Tuxedoed staff set an elegant tone at this French special-occasion favorite.

Known for its scrumptious breakfasts, this Swedish restaurant also serves lunch and dinner specialties such as meatballs.

Distinct from other Thai restaurants in the city, Arun’s serves a gourmet version of the spice-and-vegetable driven Asian fare with high quality ingredients and careful presentation. Multi-course fixed-price menus change nightly, and dietary restrictions can be taken into consideration with advance notice. The quiet Thai art-trimmed rooms are conducive to conversation.

Expect top-notch hotel dining, where creative American cuisine leans toward comfort food.

A wine bar of warehouse proportions, Bin 36 engenders an infectious enthusiasm for wine and food. The many small dishes encourage sampling.
-
Foodies and the fashion set both agree on Blackbird, an eatery that sports minimalist decor and shoves the tables so close together that eavesdropping becomes part of the experience. Chef Paul Kahan generates the buzz, preparing sophisticated American dishes with French leanings. Menus change seasonally but reservations are perennially a must.
-
In this feel-good Caribbean joint, jerk chicken is a favorite, and Key Lime pie is the must-do dessert.
