Over dit restaurant

  • Innovatief
  • Goed voor zakelijke maaltijden
  • Charmant
Behind an elegant Lincoln Park façade lies one of the most storied addresses in American gastronomy. Charlie Trotter’s defined an era—not just through visionary cuisine, but through its relentless pursuit of excellence and hospitality. Revered as the birthplace of the vegetarian tasting menu and the pioneering kitchen table, Trotter’s was never just a restaurant—it was a philosophy. Now, the spirit of 816 W Armitage quietly returns. Led by Dylan Trotter, the Guest Chef Dinner Series invites acclaimed chefs to interpret the legacy in their own voice. Each evening is singular. Each menu ephemeral. Every detail, intentional. For those who remember, it’s a return. For those who never knew, an invitation. Welcome to Charlie Trotter’s—once again.

Waarom dit pareltjes zijn

Van de OpenTable-redactie: When chefs hear the name Charlie Trotter, the awe and respect is immediate. The late culinary legend was known for flawless hospitality and pioneering practices like the in-kitchen chef's table—in addition to award-winning food, of course. Now, with the return of the Lincoln Park restaurant from his son Dylan Trotter, diners can once more experience the perfection of a Charlie Trotter meal, as intepreted through big-name chefs such as Grant Achatz and John Shields during a series of once-in-a-lifetime pop-up dinners.

    I have never dined at this legendary restaurant prior to it closing. So, when I heard they were returning, I jumped on the opportunity to secure a reservation for me and my friend. The food and ambiance were great. However, we suspected that there were some miscommunications with the service. For instance, the couple next to us that arrived after us finished their meal way earlier than us and we noticed a considerable amount of time had lapsed between some of our dishes. Also, there was a miscommunication when we received said couple’s 2nd dessert before we even got our 1st dessert course. Price wise, my friend and I agree if was a little steep for just 8 courses. But, I understand they’re still trying to get back in to the groove of things. So, I can only see them improving. I’ll definitely be back though to try their other themed nights.

    Oh, what a night! The food, the wine, the service, the chefs! It was amazing from start to finish. Hopefully Dylan Trotter will continue the pop up dinners because the one we just had with Chef's flown in from all over the US was spectacular. Do NOT miss the chance to dine there once again.

    Once again, a fantastic meal. We are glad to have been able to dine here one more time before its closing. We will miss the exquisite dining experience that Charlie Trotters has always provided.

    The food was amazing--even better than I remember from a visit 4 years ago. The service was a mess. I don't know I'd the waiters even knew what they were serving. Guess that's what you get 2 days before shut-down. Glad I got to enjoy one last meal at Trotter's.

    Charlie left at the top of his game. Still the best in Chicago. He will be missed.

    Another fantastic experience at Chef Trotter's. Sad that this is the last week of a gem for Chicago. After 6 dining experiences here over the past decade, I'll miss Chef Trotter's front of house greeting/razing, as well as the fantastic service, dining and wine.

    Top 3 places we've ever eaten. Easily the most interesting and well paired meal I've ever eaten. Heavy european influence in the food, with the exceptional american service. Most of the attention to Charlie Trotters is focused on the menu. A satisfying meal without the heavy over indulgence so many establishments aim for. We ate and drank for 3 hours without feeling like calling it an early night. The single best service we've ever received. The resident wine snob was anything but. He was young, yet clearly educated. He offered enough with each of the 7 pours to accompany dinner, without overwhelming and was ready to answer any question or elaborate when asked. The wait staff was attentive, without impacting our dinner. Fabulous!
