Elske means love in Danish, a nod to both David Posey’s Danish mother and the fact that the couple got engaged in Copenhagen. “Our travels in Denmark have really influenced us,” Chef Posey said. “We like that clean, simple aesthetic.” The dining room — all crisp lines, minimalist décor & soft lighting — is anchored by a wide open kitchen on one side & a small patio with a working fireplace on the other. Combined with the friendly service, it creates the impression that you’re eating in a supremely tasteful Scandinavian friend’s weekend home.

Supremely Asian American. Eastern cooking technique.

Taking inspiration from the night markets of Asia and his Korean-American childhood, Chef Edward Kim pairs eastern cooking techniques with Chicago ingredients to create umami-laden flavors, juxtaposing tastes and textures for a wildly exciting menu. A festive and lively dining scene is anchored by a well-lauded bar program and an open pantry, inviting our guests further into the kitchen experience. Like a nightly Asian Thanksgiving, expect Feast-Style dining, rolling up your sleeves, passing plates with your neighbors, getting sauce on your face - if you’re having a good time you’re doing it right.

Fantastic venue, will definitely. Visit again for dinner. We came on an evening with entertainment. The appetizers we had (Spicy Nduja meatballs and cornbread ) were outstanding. We order their recommended pasta dishes (orchecchio and Trophie) for our entrees. The Trophie was ... not good. A bit too salty and just too much crab taste - it needed something else to balance the flavor so it wasn't boring. The Orchecchio was better - but if you went to an Italian restaurant, it would be considered mid. I'd definitely go back here again but order non-pasta dishes! Definitely treat yourself to a cocktail or two!

Thank you for a wonderful evening. The owner is very kind and came to our table to be sure everything was ok. Folks, this is real Italian, prepped and presented. The menu is spectacular.

About the restaurant

Marchesa, in the heart of River North, serves delicious French & Italian food with wines and cocktails that pair perfectly. Chose from our a la carte menu or a special tasting menu. The art-filled interior, inspired by the Guggenheim in Venice, is cozy & welcoming. The main dining room boasts brass chandeliers, marble statues & a shagreen bar top, all worthy of our muse, Jazz Age socialite, Marchesa Casati. Intimate Chef's table is perfect for groups up to 12.

The Champagne Cave, open from Wednesday through Saturday at 5:00 p.m., has a bohemian vibe, perfect for enjoying a glass of Champagne, full menu or desserts. DJ spins on weekends. Second floor private dining room, The Apartment, reminiscent of a luxe home, is perfect for intimate groups, with a baby grand piano & petit plain air courtyard.

Reservations & walk-ins are warmly welcomed. Looking forward to the pleasure of your company! Your Hosts, Kathryn Alvera, Francisco Montiel, Nikki Friar and the Famille Marchesa.

Marchesa is a true gem. Beautiful atmosphere, consistently good food and service make Marchesa one of my favorite destinations. It’s effortlessly chic.

Food was outstanding. We tried a number of items and shared plates. Delicious! Käsespätzle is a favorite and the brussel sprouts were outstanding. Loved the pork schnitzel too. We'll be back, for sure! Go, Funkenhausen!!
