This River North spot is one of chef Roy Yamaguchi's signature restaurants, featuring his twist of Hawaiian fusion cuisine, a mix of French and Asian flavors. Specialties include teriyaki hibachi-grilled Atlantic salmon, Szechwan-spiced barbecue baby back pork ribs and blackened island ahi, while the chocolate souffle is said to be something to talk about. The majority of the wine list is made up of selections from Roy's exclusive label, produced by various wineries. High ceilings give a spacious feel to the dining room, which is lined with dark-stained wood panels, deep red walls and colorful artwork. The dining room offers a peek into the kitchen, though a special seating area with a view of the "exhibition kitchen" is also available.
