General Notes

One michelin star! This ranks among the top in terms of the best food I've had. I came here on a Sunday for brunch, and I ordered their $37 fixed-prix menu - it was incredible value! I would strongly recommend this restaurant for a date - both the interior and exterior are romantic. At some point, I would love to try the $95 fixed-prix dinner menu.


Positives

> The interior decor is awesome, and the environment is romantic. It's located in the middle of Lincoln Park, literally right in front of a pond like the name suggests.
> Great value for the food! The $37 3-course fixed-prix brunch menu is incredible.


Dishes Tasted

  • ★★★★ Dessert - Raspberry Sorbet, Crisp, Whipped Cream, Strawberry, Coffee Whip -- The textures and flavor combinations for this are divine.
  • ★★★★ Whitefish with Couscous and Vegetables -- Delicious! All the flavors melded together super well.
  • ★★★☆ Hen Egg, Chorizo -- Served with french toast, plus various sauces. I found the chorizo to be a bit too hard and salty for my taste, but everything else was very good.
