It's located on the shore with a beautiful atmosphere, ambiance and view of the sea. The staff is friendly and very attentive. They offer a large variety of seafood, veggables, and some meat. I'm a seafood lover and was never disappointed. A little pricy but that is expected from one of the best Restaurants in Chicago. Make sure you have reservations a week in advance, this place is not walk in friendly.
