Allen's

$$$, New American, River North


Fodor's Review:

Allen's. Distinguishing himself from the pack of contemporary cooks, chef Allen Sternweiler goes boldly with wild game. Think roast rabbit stuffed with rabbit sausage and grilled quail stuffed with red Swiss chard and Serrano ham. If you're less adventurous, there are plenty of more familiar options in the meat and sea departments. The biggest treat here, though, is the massive collection of fine spirits, like Armagnacs, ports, and small-batch bourbons. Our favorite is the 16-year-old Hirsch Reserve bourbon.
