Dirk's Fish & Gourmet Shop - Review - Lincoln Park - Chicago - The Infatuation

"Dirk’s Fish & Gourmet Shop is a part-seafood market, part-restaurant on the edge of Lincoln Park with every mollusk, crustacean, and fish imaginable to cook at home. There’s also a full seasonal lunch menu of prepared food including sushi, bisques, salmon burgers, and shrimp kabobs—but the best move is to get a lobster roll. The New England-style version comes on a heavily grilled, buttery roll that can barely contain all the perfectly cooked chunks of knuckle and claw meat, but isn’t so heavy that you can’t finish a meal with a slice of Dirk’s key lime pie. And while most people do takeout, there are a few high-tops available so you don’t have to eat standing in the parking lot." - Veda Kilaru
