I am heading to Chicago for New Years Eve. Anyone have any suggestions to a nice restaurant for New Years?

Please do BTW. If anyone knows good food, it is the New Yorkers. Let me know what he says.

Pond is good for me. I can swim. Be neat to be in one of those polar bear clubs. But funny.

Thank you kindly sir. I will check all three out. We are going to see Wicked and then to the Bulls game on Saturday. Should be a nice weekend. You guys have got a great city.

hey, it's not a nice restaurant by any stretch so it probably won't be good for NYE -- but if you're around on new year's day and have an hour to kill, head to DAO right on the mag mile.

it's on ohio just east of michigan ave, and has without a doubt, the best thai cuisine i have ever had. i've been going downtown from the suburbs since i was 17 for that stuff.

hey euro , ive eaten at many of the top restaurants in chi town. tell me what your looking for ?fine dining, steak house etc. atmosphere etc?and price range? are you willing to try creative new thngs or? just tell me and can give you some spots.:)

eurobounce 11-08-2006 08:41 PM

Thanks for the offer to help. My wife is a vegetarian and I like just about anything. Price is not an issue at all. I would like something that is romantic but not snobby. I hope that makes sense. Something with a good, fun, romantic atmosphere.

I personally like Ditka's, but you won't go wrong down there at most places. There is one place that it just unbelievable and that is Chop House.....
