Oriole (Chicago)

Oriole is chef Noah Sandoval’s two-Michelin-starred tasting menu restaurant hidden in a nondescript building near Chicago’s West Loop, offering one of the most intimate and personal fine dining experiences in the city. The multi-course menu balances Japanese precision with American soul, and the beverage programme includes a superb champagne selection — often featuring rare vintage Krug and Billecart-Salmon — integrated into the evening’s meticulously planned pairings. One of Chicago’s most genuinely special and memorable restaurants, beloved by those who have discovered it.
