Had lunch at this charming little French restaurant in Monadnock Building. Food was delicious and beautifully presented. We had the French Onion soup, Cucumber Salad with Green Goddess Dressing, and the Mushroom Pressed Sandwich, all of which were sublime. Wait staff was helpful and attentive. This place now is on my favorite list.

Incredible new restaurant that the Loop needed. It is a new French Bistro and, after being in the area for years, I think it is the best restaurant around. Great vibe, sandwiches, and cocktails to name a few.

Great service and excellent food. Nice options for lunch or dinner. We had the smoked walleye, French onion soup, Cornish hen, and Parisian gnocchi. Everything was delicious! Beautiful and cozy space that we would definitely return to.

We discovered this place randomly on vacation after visiting a nearby art museum…and let me tell you: Bistro Monadnock makes a Chicago holiday worth it alone! Service was incredibly welcoming, with a very accessible wine list and “New Paris” ambience. The escargot is made to perfection, just enough bread to soak up the delicious garlicky butter and parsley. Sandwiches were generous portions, with the Le Rachel, being made of 10-day home cured beef. Speaking of beef, the fries are made with beef fat and some of the I’ve ever had. The mushroom melt satiated my French bistro lunch desires. We’ll have to come here for dinner soon to enjoy the Cornish hen, our server told us it’s breathtaking. I believe her…there’s a lot of pride in this place, and I know this is one place that’ll catapult its way to the top of the Chicago eatery list in no time.

Sometimes you walk into a restaurant and in the first second you can tell it’s going to be a hit. From the font on the menu to the paint on the ceiling, it’s all very thoughtful.

I like this better than Obelix and Le Select. The food was very good and the ambience was nice as well. The food was delicious. The waiter was very nice. I just like the whole vibe and will be back to try other dishes. I love the little shops in the bldg. I feel like I am going back in time. From the hat shop to the cobbler and the barber shop. So cute.
