"A restaurant town in the truest sense of the term, Chicago extends far beyond Polish sausage, deep-dish pizza, and world-class steaks. Thanks to corner vendors and legends like the original Pizzeria Uno, Gino's East, Gene and Georgetti, and Morton’s, thos..."

"Chef Troy Graves's fusion creations are elegant: escargot and black truffle ravioli with parsnip bisque, for example, or a terrine of mushrooms and smoked pheasant, served with grilled asparagus, red onion, and an artichoke remoulade. Brunch offerings are..."

"The menu offers a fair variety of seafood (ahi tuna, crab, scallops) and wild game shows up both in entrees and appetizers (the braised rabbit and macadamia spring roll, for example, is a good off-the-beaten-path choice). Many entrees put a modern twist o..."

"Meritage is a restaurant on a mission with food that's a gumbo of contemporary American and Asian. The experience is interesting, to say the least, and there are a lot of customers who will undoubtedly say the same thing...."

"This contemporary American restaurant/wine bar takes its name (and more than 30 selections on its sizable wine list) from a classification of wines that consists of a mixture of grape varietals. This blending process is echoed in a menu that combines cook..."

"This casual Bucktown eatery maintains its funky yet flirty image even after founding chef Dirk Flanigan has moved on. With the arrival of chef Tony Graves, Meritage keeps its edge on the area's eclectic dining scene with an all-American wine list and cont..."
