About this restaurant

Good for special occasions
Great for fine wines
Romantic

One of Chicago’s finest dining experiences awaits you in this elegant town home setting that balances formality and friendliness. Your dinner may be paired with fine wines, as uncommon ingredients come together in perfect harmony. In operation since 1978, Les Nomades remains true to its distinctive character as an oasis of civilized tranquility amidst the bustling activity of its Streeterville location. Culinary creations delight the most discriminating palates. Savor Sautéed Foie Gras, or Lobster Ravioli with seared scallops; Roasted Breast and Confit Leg of Duck, or Duo of Roasted Partridge and Bison. Artisan cheeses are extraordinary and the pastries are sublime.
Please keep in mind that proper attire is required including a jacket for gentlemen.

We’ve lived around the corner for 4 years and just recently visited for the first time — kicking ourselves for not coming in sooner. Everything was superb! Menu was excellent, and the staff made it an unforgettable experience. Can’t wait to come back!

Always consistently great. One of the best restaurants in Chicago. But very traditional fine dining, reflective of a different era.
