The service was phenomenal. From our first entrance, to the server taking amazing pond view photos at the end of the night. Our server was very attentive and knowledgeable. The whole staff really went above and beyond to make our birthday celebration special. The food was nothing less than outstanding. Each dish had complex flavors and amazing presentation. The wine pairing was a perfect addition as well. Highly recommend, especially for a quiet, cozy, romantic evening. It’s such a unique setting in the park, a space unlike any other fine dining in Chicago.
