Short Description:
A crashingly original BYO restaurant headed by Food & Wine Best New Chef Michael Carlson. The surroundings are simple, yet elegant, and the food is of a level with top kitchens practicing avant garde dining mixed with a dose of molecular gastronomy. If that confuses you, this might not be the right experience for you unless you're heartily open to new things.
Full Details:
One of the most absolutely original restaurants in Chicago and around the country. Executive chef Michael Carlson serves his menu, his way to the 20-30 lucky diners who get a spot at this tiny BYO. Carlson and his crew painted the place themselves, keep the decor and attitude simple (the food is not!), and from that humble launching pad he's become one of the most respected young chefs in the country.
