What People Are Saying About Shikago
The Editor
Jennifer Olvera

Tucked into an old office building, this dark, moody dining room--previously a contemporary American spot--reemerged as a market-driven Asian eatery that's as popular with couples as it is with traders and bankers from the financial district. During lunch, Loop workers banter over ramen soup buoyed by Chinese-style barbecue pork. Heartier sizzle plates, an Asian take on meat and potatoes, perfume the lantern-lit space come dinnertime. A small bar and sushi lounge, outfitted with reclaimed wood tables, is a popular place to unwind over by-the-books maki.

My entire trade desk was thrilled when the Shikami brothers opened up Shikago nearby in the Loop! This is the best place for sushi in the Loop. Also, check-out the rest of the modern contemporary global menu and gallery-like dining space. The menu is always inventive and delicious since the chef only uses fresh seasonal ingredients. Perfect place for lunch if you dine-in or take-out during the busy work week and a great secret spot for after-work gatherings or dinner before or after theater, etc. The wine list is awesome and available for retail as well! Located next door to the W Hotel on Adams/Lasalle. For private parties, the upstairs law library on the 40th floor designed by Philip Johnson is the best kept secret in the entire city! Stunning!

Know Before You Go:
There are three menus to consider: The takeout, the bar and the dining, which get progressively fancier and pricier in that order.
Where to Sit:
High-tops in the bar/takeout area are a little sterile. Opt instead for for drinks and apps at the bar, or, better still, just give in to the handsome dining room where plenty of dishes ring in under $20.
Parking:
The south side of Adams has fee parking, with restrictions, but if you're out of luck spring for valet at the adjacent W Chicago City Center.
