¿Qué planes tiene para la Semana de los Restaurantes de Chicago de 2025?

Start Your Dining Experience with Starters, Sights, and Sips

This isn’t a typical restaurant experience. Instead of dim lights and wall art views, when stepping on the Odyssey Chicago River, you are struck by large, full-length, 270-degree windows where the city’s architecture is on full display. Throughout the course of your cruise, the Chicago skyline will tower over you as your table lights up in the sky. Change into your dressy attire and come out on the water to enjoy upscale dining, live entertainment, and stunning skyline views on the water.

At first, you’ll be entranced by the ambiance, but there isn’t much time for gawking. After the host greets you, you’re whisked away to your table to begin your meal service. Led by our polished tableside servers, it won’t be long until you have a drink in hand. From our curated beverage menu, your waiter will serve your selection from the unlimited coffee, tea, or water included in your meal ticket, one of our delicious creative cocktails from our cash bar, or a sommelier-paired wine by the glass or bottle.

Consider this just the beginning of the evening’s culinary experience. You’ll be delighted when your first course salad is served. The Artisanal Caesar Salad is served with Parmigiano Reggiano, white anchovies, herbed mini croutons, and Caesar vinaigrette.

Nuestro nuevo plato exclusivo de la Semana de los Restaurantes de Chicago

For your main course, it’s only right to give our new dish a try. Created exclusively for Chicago Restaurant Week, the Ten Layer Lasagna is freshly prepared with Bolognese, House-made Ricotta, and shaved Parmigiano Reggiano. This course is exclusive to the dinner cruise option only.

Just when you think it’s enough, you’re served a dessert you’ll want to indulge in. Our Tiramisu features whipped Mascarpone cream and espresso, served with mixed berries and pineapple, and topped with fresh mint and lime spritz.

Chef Francesco has an instinctive skill in devising appealing menus to satisfy a wide range of tastebuds, ranging from sophisticated gourmet main courses to delicious add-ons. If for some reason Ten Layer Lasagna isn’t your speed, there are a few other entree options including Buttermilk-Brined Chicken Breast with mustard-glazed marble potatoes, marinated artichokes, brussel sprouts, and apricot preserves. Another amazing choice is our Potato Gnocchi with Tomato Ragu, served with rosemary whipped ricotta, fresh herbs, and shaved Parmigiano Reggiano

Simone admits that when cooking, he feels the most rewarded after simply seeing the delighted reactions of guests enjoying his food. Delighted you will be when you see what Chef Francesco has in store. You won’t believe you’re getting this experience at an unbeatable Chicago Restaurant Week price starting at $30.
