Fodor's Review:

Skip the tourist trap funnel-cake fare at Navy Pier. This riverside gourmet market a block away is a toothsome escape. The prepared fine and organic foodstuffs are treated with reverence, and although service is cafeteria-style, selections are decidedly more sophisticated. We like the entrée southwestern chicken salad, chicken tomatillo soup, and roast beef-blue brie-caramelized onion sandwiches.

great food, okay service

Posted by SkippyW from Santa Fe, NM on 5/31/08
Everything is delicious but the service could be better. I think if the numbers were placed higher so the servers could see them it would help. We ate here 2x since the food was excellent. The cobb salad, soups, sandwiches and cookies are wonderful!!!

Food: 5.0 Atmosphere: 4.0 Service: 2.0 Value: 4.0 RATING: 4.0
