Jameson Sotheby's International RealtyChicago Avenue,
restaurant row.
Ten restaurants on our radar, in the order you'd walk past them heading west from Noble Street. The story behind each one, the history of its building, what to order, and how to get a table.
Three ways to do the street
Beer, then fire
A Strawberry Basil Hefeweizen inside the old Hub Theatre at Forbidden Root, then across the street for pão de queijo and charcoal chicken at Brasero.
The easy weeknight
Dumplings and green onion bread at Lao Peng You, or the Orange Rush at Kai Zan's sushi bar. Both keep the bill friendly.
The night you'll talk about
Feld's 25-plus courses written that morning, or the 10-seat counter at Omakase Shoji. Both book out; set a reminder for reservation drops.
New on Chicago Avenue, once a month.
Openings, closings, the spots we're trying next, and what's happening with homes on these blocks. One short email a month from Ivona and Karen.
Live a short walk from all ten.
We've been selling homes on the blocks around Chicago Avenue for over 30 years. If you're thinking about a move to West Town, Ukrainian Village, East Village or Noble Square, we'd love to tell you what's coming up near this stretch.
