Best Healthy Restaurants in Midway

Wonderful lunch. All 3 of us enjoyed our salads. The server was terrific. It was cozy on this cold day. I brought home some muffins from the bakery. Such a great restaurant! You should open one in Bucktown:)

The bar and bartender made the experience even better. Thank you.

Excellent food with terrific, attentive staff. Place is beautiful and warm. Plates are small and meant for sharing. Some were quite expensive ($34 each for goat pork belly and basted bass) which were very small IMO for the price. Goat belly was very good, but would pass on the bass as we felt it was over spiced and couldn’t taste the fish. We also had the poke (24), oysters (18 for 2), beets (18), chickpea fritters (18) and a delicious, definite repeat in the toffee pumpkin spice cake (15). With tip and 3 drinks between us, came to $300 for 2 people. That said, this was our second visit and we will gladly be back again!!!

We had a great visit at Aba. We arrived with a reservation and were seated immediately. My date was not able to brush off the cold temperature on the terrace, so we opted to sit at the bar and wait for a table at the inside dinning room. The host staff were very polite and told us of the hour plus wait. We decided to stay at the bar and eat dinner there, though the host staff found us a table within 15 minutes of us sitting at the bar. We dined out often and the bar area is always an option for us, so we didn’t want to inconvenience anyone. Again, the host staff handled the situation tremendously well and we were very happy with the choices they gave us. Now on to the service and food. The bar staff was uber knowledgeable and coursed out our selections, as it was our first time there. We started out with Prosecco before we dug into the menu choices. We ordered Whipped feta, falafel, truffled salmon, and the green chili shrimp. The bar coursed out our choices perfectly. They suggested we get extra bread with our shrimp, and it was the perfect suggestion. All dishes were delicious and flavorful. Lots of depth in all dishes. We also had a cocktail and a glass of wine. Both were good choices. Bar staff was impeccable in their choices for us and we ended our night celebrating my date’s birthday with a carrot cake. Sans licking the plate, we liked it through the last bite. The staff even lit a candle for the cake! Overall, a knowledgeable and patient staff led us through our first, and certainly, not our last visit to Aba. See you soon Aba!

Amazing food! We had reservations for 4 and arrived a couple minutes early. We were seated within 5 minutes. Our server was very attentive. We ordered COCCOLI as an antipasti per server recommendation. It did not disappoint us. Very light airy crispy dough with perfect combination of prosciutto, stracchino cheese and truffle honey. I had the Gnocchi as entree and was beyond pleased with my choice. My husband had the Spaghetti which had tons of lump crab and perfect sauce to pair with it. Our daughter had the Brick Chicken and was pleased with flavor and was a generous portion. And our friend had the fresh made Rigatoni which was paired wonderfully with a vodka sauce. As a dessert we split a bread pudding (our family has to try the bread pudding g whenever on a menu). We all agreed that is in the top 2 of our favorite bread puddings. I had the Super Tuscan wine (very smooth and delightful) and an espresso martini which was a bit sweeter than I prefer but still delicious nonetheless. My husband had the No. 3 Martini which he loved (very Olivey for me though, but I don’t like olives ha!). Will definitely be back here next time in town!
