Gibson Italia

Gibson’s fans were amped about this 2017 opening, an upscale Italian approach that employs the same quality and attention to detail as its sister steakhouses. And then, of course, there are the Chicago River views, made possible by two sprawling waterfront dining and drinking areas. Stick to the classics here with some of the team’s top tipples—we’re talking Manhattans and Old Fashioneds—and complement those sophisticated sippers with an order of seven-year-aged Acquerello Risotto dotted with scallops and baby leeks.
