I had the rabbit and calamari (something) the rabbit was amazing! Super soft and tasty... the best thing? The staff , as a Spanish speaker and a solo consumer they all made my visit super comfortable .

Went to Sepia for the Restaurant Week. Food was deli and the service outstanding. Will be back!

Time Out Chicago

The Easter offering takes the form of a holiday prix fixe , with dishes like farmer’s cheese blintzes, a breakfast strada with ramps and shiitake mushrooms , and French toast with bacon butterscotch . Read more

Slightly stark (maybe Starck, given the light fixtures?), the apps were not quite spot on, but I had the most technically proficient salmon (with amazing crispy skin ) ever.

Bobby Kennedy

Incredible food and drinks. The duck breast and the red fish were fantastic, and the wine list is encyclopedic.

The winner: the Sepia Mule, the bar’s take on the Moscow Mule , made with ginger-infused vodka for a spicy-yet-refreshing sip: http://tmoutchi.us/13EV7jr Read more

Frisée salad with poached duck egg and bacon is our go-to for a smaller lunch . Here it is simple but well-executed, the salad 's vinaigrette and lightly pickled shallots setting off the richer flavors. Read more

Buttermilk ice cream adds an unexpected but welcome tang to white chocolate mascarpone tart scented with cinnamon , and coconut ice cream sets off tropical fruit compote with passion fruit rum sauce. Read more

Very good charcuterie , and the most generous charcuterie I've seen in Chicago. Easily enough for a couple of people.

Sip a retro cocktail with spaghetti and crusty bread . For dessert , it’s malted milk and peanut butter feuilletine. – Green Guide Editor

Definitely make a reservation with Open Table. We still had to wait for our table even when we were early for the reservation , so it is definitely a good idea.

InterContinental Chicago

Located in what used to be an 1890 print shop. The Chef seeks to bring back traditional cooking practices while staying at the cutting edge of taste. Dinner only served on Saturdays & Sundays.

I just hung out at the bar by my lonesome and I felt pretty cool doing it. The old fashion is pretty good, though not the best I've ever had.

go early and grab a drink at the bar before your dinner . Sepia has some of the best, most creative and tasty cocktails in the city .

Dark and sultry, Sepia is great for a date. Things should go especially well after a few of their expertly stirred cocktails . - Inspector

Stunning seasonal menu ????

Xinnie

Came here for restaurant week. Service is great but food is only alright. Don’t think it’s up to Michelin standard but it is possible that they compromised some quality for restaurant week.
