    Love La Serre! Valet guys are great. Hosts are welcoming. Excellent food and service every time. whether in dining room or at the bar. George at the bar is awesome. Craft cocktails are pretty and tasty. I appreciate the complimentary hot bread that you often can’t get anymore. The tuna Crudo is the best I’ve ever had in my life. Highly recommend! I would love to eat that every day and I would love to know the sauce that it is swimming in because it is absolutely incredible!!! The escargot is good, nice garlicky sauce and I appreciate they give you bread for dipping. Love the apple kale salad with feta cheese. Generous portion, tastes Perfect! I’ve enjoyed many entrées at previous visits which were all fantastic, as well. The pasta with lemony clam sauce is delicious. (Wanna try the bacon pasta next time). Can’t go wrong with pretty much anything there. Re desserts: LOVE the bruleed French toast.and the bread pudding - both with gelato. A cappuccino to end the night. ALL fantastic! ! Only thing I’d change: for tables of 2, one has to look at the booth wall. Maybe consider repositioning tables (and yes I know many Restos have same problem) or angle mirror above booth side so regardless of seat, all diners can see the beautiful lively room.

    Every time we enter the restaurant we feel so welcome and truly are excited to yet again enjoy a fabulous evening of delicious food, excellent and friendly service. I anticipate the perfectly chilled martini in the elegant coupe glass. We never feel rushed or forgotten. We are lucky to have Mon Ami Gabi in Chicago!

    Absolutely magnificent lunch. Delicious house made pate appetizer. Creamy melt in your mouth quiche with a bounty of salad that could have made a meal in itself. Make sure you save room for the chocolate pate dessert. This is the type of restaurant you wish you had in your own neighborhood so you could go there often. Even though it was a 30 minute ride from me, I’ll be back.

    Head Chef Ceasar really knows how to bring unique pairings together, both flavor and texture, that will leave you meditating over each bite. An absolute must! Top service from every staff person; from the head chef to the host to the waiting staff. Everyone takes pride in their work and it is tangible in the overall experience
