Working off the success of Siena Tavern, the latest opening for DineAmic Group is Bar Siena, located in the heart of the up and coming restaurant row of Chicago's West Loop. The two-story, 8,000-square-foot spin-off concept offers a slightly smaller menu than Siena Tavern and rotates more frequently as it focuses on spanning various regions of Italy. The menu also features a more expansive Italian street food and pizza bar component. You can expect a bustling bar vibe upon entrance and a dining scene on the second floor, both connecting in energy and liveliness throughout.
Standing proudly at the heart of Chicago's trendy West Loop meatpacking district, Packing House brings sophistication to the things that give us comfort. The Packing House focus is on making both diners and drinkers feel at home with a gourmet spin on American classic dishes, and an ever-changing selection of beers and spirits from local breweries and distilleries. From our signature Southern Fried Chicken and House-Smoked Ribs, to the tantalizing Beef Brisket Sliders and Crab Spaghettini, there's always a new take on an old favorite. To wash it all down, our full-service, standalone bar offers a selection of craft beers from around the country, and a bevy of delicious signature cocktails. From after-work cocktails to Sunday brunch, game day to date night, Packing House brings everyone back to their comfort zone.
Our menu starts with the rich culinary history and high standards of coastal French cuisine and adds fresh, American ingenuity. From the heights of our raw towers of fresh shrimp, oysters and Maine lobster, to our foie-gras torchon served with toast and jam, the food at Maude’s is straight-forward and sexy with playful twinges. Open Seven days a week.
It’s true. The West Loop is changing. Our quiet, underrated neighborhood has been discovered. One thing that will never change is the atmosphere at The Beer Bistro. It’s simple: it’s a good bar with a fun attitude. Never too serious. And despite our rotating selection of high-end beers, you’ll never be looked-down upon for ordering a High Life. Come on by for a good time and a good pint. Nothing more, nothing less. That’s what makes The Beer Bistro different.

At Gus's we're all about the food. Gus's restaurants are low-key with a southern flare where you will hear soulful classics emitting from the jukebox. Many people call Gus's a "blues-infused southern eatery." At Gus's World Famous Fried Chicken we focus on the chicken. We begin by using quality chicken which is treated to our special preparation techniques before being marinated in our proprietary batter. Once it's properly fried to a crisp golden-brown, we serve it up with a plate full of southern inspired sides and a cold beer or sweet tea. The result? Customers line up at our door before we're even open.

Indian Restaurant in Chicago Downtown, West loop, Best Indian Food in Chicago Downtown
Restaurants may be classified or distinguished in many different ways. The primary factors are usually the food itself (e.g. vegetarian, seafood, steak); the cuisine (e.g. Italian, Chinese, Japanese, Indian, French, Mexican, Thai) and/or the style of offering (e.g. tapas bar, a sushi train, a tastet restaurant, a buffet restaurant or a yum cha restaurant). Beyond this, restaurants may differentiate themselves on factors including speed (see fast food), formality, location, cost, service, or novelty themes (such as automated restaurants). Restaurants range from inexpensive and informal lunching or dining places catering to people working nearby, with simple food served in simple settings at low prices, to expensive establishments serving refined food and fine wines in a formal setting. In the former case, customers usually wear casual clothing. In the latter case, depending on culture and local traditions, customers might wear semi-casual, semi-formal or formal wear. Typically, customers sit at tables, their orders are taken by a waiter, who brings the food when it is ready. After eating, the customers then pay the bill. For some time the travelling public has been catered for with ship's messes and railway restaurant cars which are, in effect, travelling restaurants. (Many railways, the world over, also cater for the needs of travellers by providing Railway Refreshment Rooms [a form of restaurant] at railway stations.) In recent times there has been a trend to create a number of travelling restaurants, specifically designed for tourists. These can be found on such diverse places as trams, boats, buses, etc.
The West Loop of Chicago—and more specifically, Fulton Market—is where American steak was born. The team of Boka Restaurant Group, B. Hospitality, Executive Chef Chris Pandel, and world renowned designers, AvroKO, have created Swift & Sons—a place that not only elevates what has already been done, but evolves the American steakhouse for the modern diner. In 19th century Chicago, the cattle trade was one of the most prestigious businesses with which to be involved, with one of the industry pioneers being Gustavus Franklin Swift. The design for Swift & Sons takes its inspiration from this titan of the industry, re-imagining what this fictitious company's headquarters might look like in the retro-future. The experience mirrors that of walking into a luxury, old boys club—turn of the 20th century office building with high ceilings, stained glass lighting, and mosaic marble floors. Raw concrete columns and mushroom capitals are left exposed, providing peeks to the original architecture of the building which was (not un-ironically) once a Cold Storage facility in the middle of the meatpacking center of Chicago.
