Best Japanese Restaurants in Near North

My favorite seafood spot in Chicago. Love the vibe and energy of the dining room. Huge selection of seafood dishes. Flounder stuffed with blue crab was outstanding, companions loved their grouper. Started with an excellent bowl of old fashioned clam chowder. Service was attentive without being over bearing.

Our party of 4 had a wonderful time at the Evie, The setting is lovely with large windows on the second floor showcsasing the MMichigan Ave holiday decorations and lights. Our server was terrific, attentive, knowledgeable, personable and gave us good advice. The food was delicious inluding the clams and mussels, Lake Superior Whitefish, chicken, sushi and artichokes. A little expensive but worth it for the quality of the food.

My husband and I enjoyed an amazing Thanksgiving dinner yesterday at RPM Steak. The entire experience was top notch. From the ambiance to the service to the cocktails and wine to the delicious food to the meticulous timing and orchestration, we could not have been more impressed. And unlike last year at Prime & Provisions (excellent food and service as well), we were not limited to a rushed 90 minute seating. To the contrary, everything was leisurely, calming, and paced to our liking and comfort. Now on to the food. We both started with the harvest salad, which was tasty, zesty, and refreshing. Followed by possibly the best lobster bisque soup either of us have ever had. For our entrees, my husband had the halibut and I had the turkey (roasted white meat, fried dark meat). Both were superb. High quality ingredients and skillful preparation. The meal also included three sides. The mashed potatoes and bread stuffing were outstanding, the green bean casserole was just okay. Perhaps for future Thanksgiving meals, they may want to offer patrons a selection of five or six sides, for which each table selects three. For our desserts, my husband had the carrot cake and I had the pecan pie (or rather, we shared both). Oh my. Talk about yummy and delectable! Chicago would be well-served if RPM Steak opened a bakery next door. All and all, our first visit to RPM Steak was exceptional and memorable. All the more to be thankful for on Thanksging day.

We had a great time. The food was delicious and service was impeccable. A special thanks to Zia.
