It's run by the Lawless family, Irish restaurateurs who also opened Lincoln Square's the Grafton, and occupies one of the three landmarked 1889-1890 Gage Group buildings -- designed by Holabird & Roche for the Gage Brothers hat company -- with the original tin ceilings and green-glazed wall tile still intact since it opened in 2007.

The steak salad and the view of the Bean from your table make this the easiest answer to "somewhere nice but not too nice" downtown.

It's consistently good for formal-but-not-too-formal occasions right across from Millennium Park, with weekend brunch (avocado toast with salmon and egg, corned beef hash) drawing its own crowd separate from dinner service. Happy hour runs Monday-Thursday, 2-5pm, at the bar -- a real window worth planning around if you're not there for a full dinner.

There's outdoor seating and reservations are accepted; the venison burger, mussels vindaloo, and a mushroom sandwich round out a menu that runs roughly $10-$29 for most items. A 4.6-star rating across 5,200+ reviews holds up, and Yelp's own count runs even higher at 3,700-plus.
