This contemporary American spot in Hotel Felix, a River North boutique hotel, features an 80-seat modern-meets-rustic dining room accented by reclaimed oak, distressed concrete and antique-style fixtures. Look for an unusual zigzagging bar design, exposed wine storage and floor-to-ceiling windows with views of Clark Street too. Executive chef Randal Jacobs, recently of DeLaCosta, offers a menu heavy on small plates, with oysters and flatbreads leading the lineup. Medium and large plates include pappardelle with guanciale, stewed cipollini and tomatoes; smoked spring chicken with corn panna cotta and pea shoots; and roasted halibut with fava beans, morels and basil. There's also a substantial selection of artisan cured meats and cheeses, all prepped in plain sight on a special charcuterie table.
