    1 st time diners - I never go close to the city, but L.Woods looked intriguing and I had to find a place close to my dining partner. BEST CHOICE I have made on a place for lunch. We were seated immediately, our server, Esteban was wonderful. The drinks were perfect and the meal was exceptionally flavorful and delightful. I could not have found a better place to go. I had the chopped salad and my friend had the bacon burger. Just an all-around fantastic experience. It really was like being in a high-end Wisconsin supper club! I cannot say enough good things about it. I will absolutely be back and I will highly recommend it to all my friends! Thank you for a great experience L. Woods!

    One of my all-time favorite spots in Chicago for YEARS. Mondays are the best: half-price bottles of wine. Adore the French onion soup, the frites with aioli, the salad Lyonnaise. It's all great! With friendly, professional service and a total Parisian vibe.

    Very good service, noise level high. Recommend the chicken kabob, but forget the onion soup. Request to sit by the fireplace. Cozy.

    It was my birthday lunch with my three closest friends. So I picked the place. I wanted Italian and we weren't disappointed. The soup, pasta and desert was all home made and delicious. We were transported to Italy. the reason I gave three stars for ambiance, is because it looked like a diner.
