Thanks for all your suggestions. There was an article in the Chicago Sun-Times yesterday about the LTH forum. Their list of Great Neighborhood Restaurants will be out soon.
My colleague and I were working out in the West Suburbs last year and enjoyed the Rosewood Restaurant in Rosemount. We also tried Nick's and Harry Caray's near O'Hare. I didn't really care for either of them.
As I said in the original post, I'll be staying in the downtown area for the next few months..I'd like to use the opportunity to be a little more adventurous in my restaurant selections, and really appreciate all your advice.
