Ambria - One of Chicago’s top-rated restaurants, Ambria has received the Five Diamond Award from AAA and four stars from the Mobil Travel Guide, the Chicago Tribune, and Chicago Magazine. Creative French fare is served in an intimate setting of ultrasuede banquettes, Art Nouveau architectural details, and fresh flowers. Tiny shaded lamps gently illuminate the tables. Choices include classic, vegetarian, and shellfish tasting menus, “main plates” such as Grilled Beef Tenderloin with Braised Beef Ravioli, and desserts such as Raspberry Soufflé, Chocolate Euphoria Cake, and Soft Pecan Caramel with Almond Brittle. Open for dinner Monday–Saturday. Jackets and reservations required.
Mon Ami Gabi - Tall windows frame views of the Lincoln Park Conservatory, or, in summer, the hotel’s garden. The menu of French bistro fare includes Onion Soup Au Gratin, Steak Frites, and Bouillabaisse Marseillaise. The rolling wine cart offers a wide selection of wines by the glass.
