Best Restaurants for Anniversaries in Goose Island

Tuesday, 03/11/2025 Linda Park, West Chicago Tonight marks the culmination of our Chicago adventure, and I've made reservations on OpenTable for French cuisine at Mon Ami Gabi, a testament to exceptional dining. Mon Ami Gabi has three locations: - Bethesda, Maryland - Lincoln Park, Chicago - Las Vegas, NV (Paris Hotel & Casino) I've had the privilege of experiencing two out of the three locations. This location is nestled in Highland Park inside the luxury Belen-Stratford Building, exuding refinement. The evening commenced at the front host, where we were warmly welcomed by a friendly host. We were promptly seated by the window, setting the tone for an unforgettable night. We were greeted by a remarkably attentive waitress named Liz. The ambiance was nothing short of perfection! The music was fitting, crafting an enchanting atmosphere. All of our appetizers and entrees were a culinary masterpiece. I had the pleasure of ordering the specials: - Duck A L’Orange, expertly prepared to perfection. The duck was savory, the meat was tender, and the sauce was truly sublime! - Hanger Steaks for both of my colleagues, which they thoroughly enjoyed. Appetizers: - Melted Brie - Escargots De Bourgogne - Warmed baguettes Desserts: - Crème Brûlée Wine: - Two glasses of Red Bordeaux Whenever you have the opportunity to visit the Mon Ami Gabi establishment, seize it, and your palate will be eternally grateful. I wholeheartedly recommend this restaurant, a true gem that will leave you in awe.

Heather was fantastic, personable and knowledgeable about the courses and the flow. Food was fantastic and service impeccable.

Came here for the happy hour thanks to my Facebook algorithm that kept promoting the Hawksmoor Happy Hour special, $25 steak & frites! It was cooked to my liking and though simple it was lean yet tender, not tough or chewy as most lean meats can get. And it had a good charred beefy flavor to it. It is a 28 dry aged steak that is cooked to order over hot coals. Paired with crispy, fluffy potatoey beef tallow fries and you have one of the best valued happy hour menu item ever!

Great ambiance and service . The food was good . Ample tone allotted between courses

Absolutely wonderful experience!!! Staff is AMAZING!
