My wife and I discovered this place while walking down Halsted one Friday evening. We were with friends and decided to pop-in for some food and a glass or two of wine. What we got was an excellent dining experience unlike many others we had in Chicago when we lived there (moved to Seattle last summer). The bar and restaurant are divided into two parts. The "back" room is where we sat. It's small, quiet, and very, very intimate. Dim lights, ecclectic decor, and friendly, attentive service. The food was terrific (country french) and the wine was superb. Not too pricey either. If you're in the neighborhood and looking for something a little different, give the Red Rooster a try.
