Dining room at Mon Ami Gabi, Chicago, ILMon Ami Gabi remains a top contender when it comes to bistro dining in Chicago, which is saying something because it's in good company. There’s a romantic air about the place, what with the large windows overlooking Lincoln Park and vintage, Parisian-style bar. On the plate, expect an expanded repertoire of steak frites, plus enjoyable hot seafood appetizers and shellfish. We especially like the lemony chicken paillard and homey bacon-wrapped pork tenderloin with kicky cider sauce. Beef bourguignon is quite good, too. As for potatoes, don't miss the pommes Dauphinoises. Among the desserts, the rich cherry clafouti is luscious, as are the profiteroles.
