312 Chicago, adjacent to the style-conscious Hotel Allegro, offers an Italian-inspired American menu with dishes such as olive oil poached bass, spit-roasted lamb and polenta souffle. Chef Dean Zanella's resume includes stints at Charlie Trotter's, Gordon and Grappa before debuting solo at 312. Spacious booths, low lighting, wood furnishings and rich colors create a warm welcome. With direct access from Hotel Allegro and across the street from the State of Illinois Center and City Hall, 312 Chicago should prove popular with everyone from out-of-towners to statesmen.

312 Chicago is closed for cosmetic upgrades from April 13-23, 2008.
