Editorial Review for Grand Lux Cafe – by J.P. Anderson
In Short
Above the Ann Taylor store on Michigan Avenue, this huge restaurant offers shoppers and business types roomy, comfortable relief from the Mag Mile bustle. Grand Lux boasts a spacious bar, buzzing open kitchen, and seating for 550 in several rooms, all done up in opulent faux-Venetian style: high ceilings, multi-colored leather and velvet banquettes, and mosaic tile floors. The global menu offers oversized portions and a dizzying array of choices, from Vietnamese summer rolls to Yankee pot roast and wiener schnitzel.

I have eaten the Lux soooo many times. Both lunch and dinner and I have yet to have a bad experiences. The staff is great, the drinks are great and the food is even better. I am working my way through the entire menu. I even got engaged here and had my 1 year anniversary dinner here. My husband who is a VERY picky eater can't even complain. If you eat anywhre while downtown this is the place to go. As a matter of fact my birthday is this Friday and I'm going again.
