A true Chicago classic, Berghoff lives on. While the restaurant flirted with a hipper moniker for a while (17 West at the Berghoff), it now is plain-old Berghoff--no doubt pleasing traditionalists (though "the" has been sacrificed somewhere along the way). Carlyn Berghoff (the founder's granddaughter) is at the helm and still offers those German specialties, as well as contemporary dishes for those who don't want a schnitzel for lunch. The lower level houses the quick-serve Berghoff Café, featuring a menu of hot carved and deli sandwiches, salads, panini and pasta.
