Best Restaurants for Foodies in West Loop

Tried an assortment across the menu. The short ribbon dumplings and fish stew were magnificent. Everything else was delicious. Only little downside...we were seated in a small room with 3 or 4 other tables. Took away a bit from ambience of being out in an energetic place. But that is a small thing.

First time at El Che and it did not disappoint! Ambience is so cute. For apps we got the beef and mushroom empanada. Beef was amazing. My husband and I shared the Steak, Lobster and Beef Fat Fries for our entree. Steak was perfectly cooked and one of the best steaks I've had next to Bavettes. Lobster diavolo was soo good, that sauce! Added a side of the sauce with the fries, chef's kiss! We both had pisco sours for our drinks. For dessert, we shared the horchata and dulce de leche gelato, don't skip on dessert! Highly recommend El Che and will definitely be back!

Restaurant Review: The Girl and The Goat The Girl and The Goat continues to solidify its reputation as one of Chicago’s must-visit dining destinations. With a focus on bold flavors and a playful approach to globally inspired dishes, this restaurant delivers a truly memorable experience. Highlights: •Bread and Pimento: This dish is deceptively simple but executed to perfection. The warm, freshly baked bread pairs beautifully with the creamy, smoky pimento spread. It’s the kind of starter that sets the tone for an indulgent meal, leaving you reaching for seconds (or thirds). •Empanadas: Bursting with flavor, these are a standout. The flaky, golden crust envelops a perfectly seasoned filling that balances savory richness with a touch of spice. Each bite feels like a small, delicious adventure. Drinks to Complement Your Meal: While The Girl and The Goat boasts a full bar menu offering craft cocktails, wines, and beers to suit any palate, the non-alcoholic options are equally impressive. The menu features thoughtfully crafted mocktails, infused with fresh herbs, seasonal fruits, and house-made syrups. Standouts include a refreshing citrus-and-mint blend and a rich hibiscus and ginger cooler, each perfectly balanced to enhance the meal without overpowering the flavors of the food. Dessert Note: •Chocolate and Peanut Butter Dessert: A decadent and satisfying way to end your meal. The harmony of creamy peanut butter and rich chocolate creates a nostalgic yet elevated experience. The textures—silky, crunchy, and smooth—make this dessert unforgettable. The Girl and The Goat’s ability to innovate while staying approachable is what makes it a perennial favorite. From small plates to desserts, and a drink menu that caters to every guest, every dish tells a story worth savoring.

Momotaro offers a stellar dining experience with a beautiful ambiance that sets the stage for its delicious variety of robata yaki, fresh nigiri, and expertly crafted sushi rolls. The attentive service ensures every detail is taken care of, making it a perfect choice for indulging in exceptional Japanese cuisine.
