Manny's Restaurant, hands down. The quality of the food is second to none. Just ask Mayor Daley and President Obama.
I love me some Manny's! Chicago Firehouse also has some bomb steak if you're willing to pay the price.
My fave = Gioco
What is better than an owner living above his restaurant? That is acting locally. Money spent there stays in the neighborhood!! This is the classic sustainable economic model of yesterday, that our car culture and flight to the 'burbs has forgotten. So get to the point you say. Well Blackie's at the corner of Clark and Polk, is such a restaurant in our neighborhood. I am sure there are more - let's get a list going. Keep your money in the neighborhood as much as you can by supporting local businesses. And their patio on a Saturday morning is hard to beat with Eggs Florentine and a bloody Mary~
And I hear their burgers are great too.
I'll tell you what the "Best Restaurant" in the area isn't: Eleven City Diner!
This joint (and it's owner) needs a reality check and a reboot.
Too pricey . . . too much douchebaggery.
I agree...Eleven City Diner needs some new management...the owner is ridiculous...is he a New Yorker, I am a transplant from the East Coast and this guys grinds my gears...
Eleven City is laughably rude and condescending...who would pay to be abuse?
Panozzo's (13th & Michigan) has the best beef sandwichs, and lots of other ready to eat items. I also love the pretzel and ice cream sandwich.
Yolk. I'm a breakfast fan. So is my girlfriend. We love Yolk. Michigan and 11th st.

Chef Luciano's rules! I eat there everyday and love the Naan bread with the special oil the chef uses! Try it out today at the corner of Wabash and Cermak!
