It's our aim to return you to what nights out used to be. And while we seat our last diners by 10 o'clock Mondays through Saturdays, our beautiful bar serves up enchanting cocktails and stellar wines later into the evening. We've made the switch that several Chicago restaurants have, and are using CityEats for our online reservations. While you won't find Chicago on their website just yet, you can book on ours or by calling the restaurant directly.
