This was a WONDERFUL place to randomly stop in for lunch for my girlfriend and I. We were greeted cheerfully right away at the host station. When everyone is a good mode, I am in a good mood, and everyone here was very happy and the service was great.

We were seated very quickly, and our waitress, Olivia, I am sorry if I got your name wrong :( , shortly greeted us after. Her service was astounding, and her knowledge of the menu was extensive. She helped us pick from starters (since everything sounded good). We ended up getting the octopus, which I love octopus, and it was absolutely astounding. The flavors of the sauce and seasoning worked well together to make a great starter.

Olivia made sure to nudge us in the direction of the truffle fries, which did not disappoint, for both of our entrees. My girlfriend is a huge fish and chips fan, and that is exactly what she ordered. She and I get disappointed by soggy fish and chips, but this was the EXACT opposite. The fish and breading had flavor, in addition to having a perfect crunch. Easily one of, if not the best fish and chips both of us have ever tested.

I am a huge burger fan, so I went with the burger with some additions. The bacon was a great addition to the burger, as unlike in some places where it is a bland add on, was thick and juicy and added to the flavor of the double pattied burger. Even though I was getting full, I had to finish the whole thing it was just THAT good.

We had tea (we loved the loose leaf pots), and some chocolate (and other stuff in the cookie I can't remember). Even though we were full, we managed to finish one of the cookies. It had that perfect texture, not too chewy, not too crunchy.

At the end of our meal we had the pleasure of talking to Sarah, the assistant general manager, about the restaurant and our meal in general, which my girlfriend loved hearing about. Combined with Olivia's amazing service and Sarah's personal touch at the end, we will definitely be coming back the next time we are in Chicago.

Thank you for such an awesome dining experience!
