Chalk Board Description:
Walking into Lincoln Square's Chalkboard, you might feel as if you've taken a ride back in time. And that's a good thing. The cozy, conversation-friendly restaurant features a simply decorated dining room, with soft green walls, white framed mirrors and shelves overhead holding a sparing amount of knickknacks. Dominating the room is the restaurant's namesake: a large chalkboard with the day's specials. Here you'll find a varied selection of dishes, such as sweet corn on the cob with truffle oil and vanilla butter or hot sauced walleye pike with fingerling potatoes. While accomplished chef-owner Gilbert Langlois (ex-Rushmore, The Room) is not afraid to go global, there are plenty of American comfort signature dishes worth trying. Our money's on the fried chicken with buttermilk mashed potatoes and the Kobe burger crowned with bacon and truffle oil. There's a casual elegance here, from the warm bread delivered by basket-toting servers to the linen-topped tables. The wine list may be small but offers enough diversity to please a variety of palates.
