While their food is DELISH, I only ever seem to get there after the kitchen's closed. It's okay though because their cocktail menu and back patio fire pits keep me coming back. Occasionally live music/DJ's are in residence as well! Such a great place!

It's just one location in the grand Forest Park, which was essentially created for the 1904 World's Fair. The different pavilions, walking paths, fountains and waterways are ALL great to enjoy. The World's Fair Pavilion has a pretty great hill to fly kites and picnic on.
