Amazing steakhouse with the perfectly salted meat. The side of mushrooms are to die for.
Bavette's Bar & Boeuf
The best Argentinian steakhouse that has the best priced steaks and large dishes. Amazing empanadas.
Tango Sur
Arguably one of the best Italian restaurants in Chicago. Large plates of food worth the price.
La Scarola
Another fantastic Italian restaurant that serves large dishes.
Sapori Trattoria - Italian Restaurant in Chicago, IL
Must get the sticky date cake for dessert. It is mouth watering delicious. The pot pie is also a fantastic choice.
Armitage Alehouse
Cute European restaurant serving fresh dishes. Must get the crepes!! My fav is the banana, strawberry, chocolate crepes.
Iguana Cafe
Intimate restaurant with Photo Booth downstairs. Must get the chocolate cream pie for dessert.
Gilt Bar
Has some of the same dishes as Armitage Alehouse. Also has the sticky date cake!! The prime rib sandwich was very good. They also have tasty pasta.
Trivoli Tavern
The pasta mixed in the cheese wheel and the rosemary lit on fire makes this a stand out restaurant. It is on the special menu. PECORINI AL TARTUFO NERO.
Osteria del Pastaio
Croatian restaurant located in Fulton Market and every dish I ordered had flavor. Highly recommend getting the short rib.
Rose Mary
Affordable and sizable Chinese food. Preferably go to Chinatown and sit down and enjoy. It is delicious.
Triple Crown Chicago & Home
Sunda has a restaurant in River North and Fulton Market. I’ve been to both. The Pork Belly Steamed Buns (4) and the Bulgogi Roti Tacos (4) are to die for. Delicious. Then we ordered the Pancit Canton and that was delicious. Can’t go wrong here!

Chicago Sight Seeing
Architecture tour is a must when visiting Chicago! Get on a boat and cruise through the river and see all the pretty buildings and gorgeous skyline.
Wendella Boats
Head to Millenium Park to see the bean, buckingham fountain, and walk along the lakefront. There are also nearby museums. Or catch a free concert in the park area!
Millennium Park
A glass room that protrudes over the edge of the Willis Tower. You can see the entire city. Gorgeous views!
The Skydeck Chicago
Located in the John Hancock building, 360 tilt is like the Willis sky deck, but you hold onto the glass wall and are tilted over the edge to see the city! Worth the experience.
Head to Wrigleyville to catch a cubs game at Wrigley Field and bar hop afterwards! Most of the bars now are remodeled and more modern, but you can still find some OG dive bars.
Bars in Wrigleyville : r/Cubs
Catch a White Sox game on the south side at Rate Field! The stadium is known to have some of the best stadium food.
Rate Field
Catch a dolphin show and see all the fish at the Shedd! I’ve been so many times growing up. Never gets old.
Shedd Aquarium
There are so many cool exhibits to see at the Museum of Science and Industry. Highly recommend!!
Griffin Museum of Science and Industry
Can’t believe it took me 31 years to get to the Alder Planetarium. A cool experience walking through different floors and learning about the moon, different planets, and seeing exhibitions on what’s in outer space. I recommend going!
Adler Planetarium
Catch a bears game (for now) or a concert at this huge stadium! Parking and walking are not the best. You will have to walk far, so wear comfortable shoes.
