Review


This was the only place I ate in Chicago all weekend that wasn't on a Celiac list, so I was a bit nervous. But we had spent all day in the Ralph Lauren store, and I'd heard his restaurant was great. I went inside and spoke to the hostess, who immediately went and spoke to the chef about the things I was interested in. She came back with good news and a couple modifications. After we sat down the waiter was already made aware I was a Celiac and was very knowledgeable. I was thrilled the lobster bisque was gluten free, as was the salad I wanted. Precautions were taken, I did not feel a bit ill. The only thing I missed was the appealing crackers and bread I saw on the other tables. This is an extremely nice place and I found out later we were very lucky to be able to walk in without a long wait. The patio was perfect for a nice day, but the interior was like a classy polo club. I will return!
