Notable Picks
8.9
A Michelin-starred Lincoln Square tasting-menu room that cooks in a modern American lane with tight technique and a calm, course-by-course rhythm. It’s best when you commit to the full experience—letting the kitchen’s seasonal through-line and pairings do the work rather than hunting for a single “best” plate.
Must-Try Dishes:
Seasonal tasting menu, Bacon-blue cheese canelés, Buttermilk and Brassica
What Makes it Special: A Michelin-starred American tasting menu in an intimate Lincoln Square room.
8.7
A Ravenswood omakase-minded room where the focus is clean cuts, careful seasoning, and a tasting-menu flow that’s designed to feel indulgent without being stiff. It shines when you commit—go omakase, add one premium nigiri upgrade if offered, and let the pacing do its job.
Must-Try Dishes:
Omakase tasting menu, Otoro (fatty tuna) nigiri, Uni (sea urchin) nigiri
What Makes it Special: Omakase-led sushi with premium fish and a polished, modern room.

8.6
A small, BYOB tasting-menu destination where the room stays intimate and the cooking runs seasonal, French-American, and detail-driven. It rewards diners who like long-form dining and are happy to let the kitchen steer, especially when the menu turns dessert-forward.
Must-Try Dishes:
Sunchoke soup, Duck breast, Pine bud custard
What Makes it Special: A true tasting-menu hideaway with BYOB flexibility and seasonal, chef-led progression.
#4
Maman Zari
8.4
A Persian-inspired tasting-menu spot in Albany Park that balances classic flavors with modern presentation, built for a steady two-hour dinner rhythm. The menu rotates seasonally, but the through-line is bright herbs, deep aromatics, and well-structured mains that feel comforting without getting heavy.
Must-Try Dishes:
Mirza Ghasemi & Sabzi Khordan (smoky eggplant, walnut-pomegranate olive, barbari), Koofteh Tabrizi (lamb, dried plum, barberry, saffron), Ghalieh Mahi (mahi mahi, tamarind, cilantro, fenugreek)
What Makes it Special: A Persian tasting menu that reads authentic in flavor but modern in execution.
