At first glance, the nineteenth-century brownstone tucked between the steel skyscrapers of Streeterville may seem a bit out of the ordinary. Indeed - it is home to the outstanding Les Nomades, one of the finest dining experiences in Chicago.

 

Les Nomades started in 1978 as a private supper club, an intimate urban oasis for members only. Now, owner Mary Beth Liccioni has opened the acclaimed restaurant to the public, maintaining the formal yet intimate atmosphere. Every detail has been carefully appointed to ensure a sensual experience: the golden glow from the antique light fixtures; the crackle from the fireplace; the bouquets of fresh-cut roses; Miro masterpieces adorning the walls.

 

Cuisiner Chris Nugent has designed four and five-course prix-fixe menus of classic French cuisine, prepared and executed with attention to balance, harmony and maintaining the integrity of both flavor and preparation techniques. Each course features numerous choices, each a sophisticated and nuanced expression of fine French fare. The cuisine has won numerous accolades, including the Mobil Travel Four Star Award and AAA Four Diamond Award. 

 

The cuisine is matched by the award-winning wine list, paired to complement the cuisine with both old and new world wine selections. Les Nomades’ cellar houses over 5000 bottles of wine.

 

An evening at Les Nomades is a special, formal affair; reservations are strongly encouraged and proper dress attire (including jacket for gentlemen) is required. From its intimate setting to exquisite cuisine, Les Nomades is indeed considered "the most Parisian Restaurant in Chicago. "

The Perfect Choice For: Special occasions (anniversaries, birthdays, promotions) business dinners, entertaining family and guests, romantic dates
