Anytime I find myself in Chicago I have a hard time not hitting up Erie Street Cafe. The food is fantastic and their signature dish is prime rib, so it's hard to go wrong. But, beyond that I love the vibe of the place. It sits at the end of a dead end road, that dead-ends into a park overlooking the Chicago river. The patrons of Eric Cafe have co-op'd the park as extra seating and Erie sends servers out. Outside on a nice summer day its like watching a goodfellas movie, guys with their no sock loafers and more gold than anyone should wear. If you get a chance I would highly recommend it.
