Best Contemporary American Restaurants in Ravenswood

Diego was a rock star. He was very knowledgeable and such a kind person. After being open all these years Boka Restaurant continues to push boundaries and make spectacular out of this world food with local and whole earthly ingredients.

My second time here, made to feel even more special than the first. The wait staff was, knowledgeable, prompt, attentive, professional and friendly. When asked for a suggestion, the selections were spot on. When asked for a personal opinion, they made answered insightfully with the customer in mind. And I can not speak enough of the GM Anna, who delightfully visited our table multiple times to make sure everything was perfect. The vibrant flavors compliment the subtly jubilant atmosphere and its five star staff. Good music, not so loud to drown out a conversation, yet not so quiet to uncomfortably hear the next table over. The lighting is easy on the eyes, but not too dark. And the creative cocktails are made with precision and care. Everything about this place exemplifies the joys of dining out. It is now my go-to restaurant to bring friends, dates, business dinners, etc. I cant wait to return.

Tala House is exceptional! The food is delicious, unique, and the flavors are like no where else you have eaten. I highly recommend dining here. I have ordered almost everything on the menu and have always been amazed at the combination of flavors and how delicious it is.

I loved my experience tonight! I’ve been here back to back weekends and throughly enjoyed my time.

We were here for a birthday dinner and had a lovely time. The service was excellent with a server who had humor and was attentive. The menu is very interesting offering a wode variety of choices and take on trditional dishes like the Garrsoulet I had, a take off of Cassoulet of course. The Lardo and Tomato toast appetizer was delicous and everyones meal was excellent. The prices are on the high side but we were satisfied. I also reccomment the steak tartare and the burger. The atmosphere is elegant but casual and lovely.
