Chicago’s Park 52 is Haute!

An American Bistro in Hyde Park is one of the things that make this cozy Chicago neighborhood Haute! Park 52 is Restaurateur Jerry Kleiner’s latest addition to his long list of cool restaurants like Red Light and Carnivale in the windy city. Each has the Kleiner touch when it comes to décor dramatic lighting, hues of red throughout with a touch of soul.

If you’re living the cosmopolitan life in Chicago… this is the spot for a fabulous meal and meeting place for cocktails and conversation. It’s also blocks away from the Obama house along with a special menu selection celebrating the 44th President and first lady. Park 52 is where the beautiful, sexy people move and shake in Hyde Park just call or text your party and have them meet you at “The Park.”

The menu consists of an array of contemporary dishes like the BBQ Glazed Atlantic Salmon, Roasted Duck Breast and Shrimp and grits. Each selection is flavorful and cooked perfectly. The food is simply good and the service is wonderful.

The open kitchen allows curious diners to watch Chef Alain Njike and his staff as they prepare each dish for the ultimate dining experience. Special guests can also enjoy their meal at Njike’s “chef’s” table for a bird’s eye view into a world of culinary delight.

Wine lovers will enjoy the vast selection from sparkling Champagnes to Merlot and South Australian Shiraz. You can order by the glass or bottle from the 70- bottle wine list in Park 52’s warm, inspired and inviting setting.

Park 52 isn’t the most expensive restaurant in Chicago, but pricing is consistent with the best in the city. Entrees start around $18 and run as high as $27. Although side dishes are served a la carte, there’s more than enough to share. But, be sure to save room for dessert, with summer approaching, you’ll love the key lime pie, bread pudding and peach cobbler.
