    Mon Ami Gabi is always a favorite for me. The dishes are always spot on, I've never had an "off" night. And our waiter was so nice! If I could give him an even higher rating I would!

    Among our favorite restaurants, three things stand out. First, the food. Excellent steak frites , French onion soup and moules. Second, the service. Many servers have been at Mon Ami for many years. They know their customers and vice versa. Third, location. Near the zoo and LSD. Great fir special occasions!

    Mon Ami Gabi is a great restaurant for classical French bistro cuisine in the Belden-Stratford Hotel away from downtown (Lincoln Park) and well-worth the effort. The restaurant has been in business over 25 yrs and has a great reputation (my Uber driver knew it and loved it). Upon seating at our 2-person table (incredibly busy on a Sunday night), our server (Abby F) asked about drinks, provided a baguette, and was an extremely helpful guide through the menu options. The food and wine was amazing (as was Abby) and was a definite reminder of bistro dining in Paris (and better than some). Would definitely return next time in Chicago (or in their Bethesda MD site).

    BEST frites in town! Nobody does it like Mon Ami Gabi for french classics. Steak Frites au poivre, the way that it was meant to be! It's a family fave. Everything on the menu is delicious.

    We brought some out of town friends to Mon Ami Gabi last night. They loved the restaurant as much as we do. Had the seafood tower as an appetizer, and it was delicious! Service was outstanding as always. Another great night at this classic Chicago bistro!

    Both the service and the food were absolutely incredible! The macaroni gratin was delicious and the mussels are always a favorite of mine. Great wine selection and a very knowledgeable waitress that helped my parents pick the perfect wines for them. Wonderful experience!
