Price: Moderate
• American • Lincoln Park
The first Lettuce Entertain You restaurant, Grunts still exudes the funky, devil-may-care lifestyle of the 70s in its style, décor, music, and menu. Happily for all of us, the best eating of that day continues to be some of the best today. While there's a huge menu that's as much fun to eat your way through as it is to read, many of Grunts' old favorites spark return visits. The burgers are arguably the best in town. The new 'digital' salad bar boasts many of your favorite fresh ingredients daily. Giant malts and milkshakes are hand scooped and come in a rainbow of favors. Oh! Don't forget the barbecued baby back ribs, and sandwich specials.

    Second time here and it only gets better! Great spot for a date night, cocktails before dinner, or after dinner or just a great meal. 12/10 spicy rigatoni- not a pasta girl but absolutely obsessed w this pasta! I ask for extra sauce & extra spicy. If you like pasta or anything spicy, get this dish!! 10/10 Filet sliders & hand cut fries. Amazing service from Jerich and as always had the pleasure of William checking in on us! Highly recommend The Bellevue!!

    The food and service was great. The seating is a little close together due to the size of the place. The only negative part was trying to find parking.

    Adorn is a special night or business restaurant. Those who remember the old Four Seasons Lobby, bar and restaurant long for the good old days. But I love the light, bright contemporary decor and white table cloths. Service is perfect. If there is no DJ playing in the bar, it’s very quiet. The food is excellent. But the menu is a little too meat centric. Well it’s primarily a business expense account restaurant.
