River Roast

Set alongside the Chicago River with its accompanying views, this expansive restaurant features a huge outdoor dining deck. Be sure to take along some friends as the menu is geared toward group dining. As you may understand from the restaurant's name, the menu features excellently roasted meats and fish that are carved at the table by the skilled waitstaff. A wide variety of smaller bites also are featured, including country-fried rabbit, charcuterie and pork meatballs. Check out the live blues musicians who perform every Saturday and Sunday during brunch from noon to 3.
