West Loop

restaurant row · 60607

West Loop is where Chicago decided dinner was the date. Fulton Market packs more credible restaurants per block than anywhere else in the city: Au Cheval at the bar if you can stomach the wait, Avec for the patient version, Time Out Market when neither of you wants to commit. The converted-warehouse stock means high ceilings, low light, and acoustics that actually let you hear each other, which sounds minor until you have tried it on Division. The tradeoff is parking, Randolph reservation roulette, and a scene that knows it is the scene. Pin Pink Line Morgan and walk.
