Goosefoot

Top choice in Chicago


Michelin-starred Goosefoot serves a cutting-edge, modern American tasting menu that never fails to surprise. For instance, your dessert – a vanilla-truffle-cherry-pink-peppercorn ice-cream cone – will arrive in a toy goose-foot-shaped holder surrounded by moss. Prepare for around six courses of richly textured, amazing-looking food. It's BYOB, with most people buying a bottle at Goosefoot's wine shop next door. Reservations required.
