Opera   

My hub & I are stone foodie New Yorkers. We were taken to Opera by some of his colleagues. I wouldn't exactly have called the food Chinese, but it was extraordinary. It so far is the only place I've ever been that prepares halibut perfectly. Everything was suffused with tastiness. The decor was totally hip and quite comfy, which usually isn't found together. I'd definitely go again, and recommend it to anyone who likes excellent, well-prepared and intelligently seasoned Asian-esque food.

As I am in Chicago periodically, I try to stop in to the restaurant as often as I can. The last time I was there, I found out that Opera is now open for lunch! I was thrilled, and after checking it out, I was even more thrilled! Your dayshift manager, I believe her name is Kendel, was absolutely charming. Even though it was obvious that she was short a hostess and a bartender, as well as lots of commotion in the kitchen area, she handled everything beautifully ... what a pro! She even made time to stop by my table, since I was alone, to just make sure that I was pleased with the service and didn't need anything. This young woman obviously takes great pride in treating her restaurant's guests as just that ... guests! I will be back next time I'm in Chicago, and you can be sure that it will be for lunch, and I'll bring friends! Thanks for the experience.

One of the finest restaraunts I've been to, The service is wonderful along with the interesting food.. The manager is pleasant and most helpful. We plan on dining here again soon. ne nbt is
