Elske

The Best Restaurants In The West Loop - Chicago - The Infatuation

"Elske’s is a worthy contender as a special occasion spot. You can order al a carte, but Elske’s tasting menu is the way to go. It’s reasonably priced ($130), especially compared to the other tasting menus in the neighborhood, and it’s the best way to try this spot’s Scandinavian cuisine. Without the tasting menu, we might not have started our meal with a “tea of lightly smoked fruits and vegetables,” and we’re really glad we did. The space is bright and airy, and they have an outdoor area with a fireplace that’s great for drinks before or after dinner." - adrian kane, john ringor, nick allen, veda kilaru, sam faye
