Bacchus on Chippewa is one of my favorite romantic places. It’s about $120 for two people, but the steaks are phenomenal (I think they’re better than chop house personally) and its quiet, dim, romantic, spacey and the way the waiters work the place just makes you feel like the only one there.

I’d go there over anywhere else, it has become my favorite place over all others.

We went to Still Water last night. I is located on Delaware. Great service…food was excellent! Menu and wine list is good with average meal approx $30. Count on $100 for two.

Did you go just recently? I just went there Thursday after the square and i couldnt agree more, food was great, waitresses were seriously the nicest (not in an annoying way) i had ever dealt with. :tup x 239879292934

Funny thing is i never even noticed it until my friend pointed it out to me so we went there 😃

Yeah I ate at stillwater before in the dining room, nothing special. Food was good, but I have definately been to better restaurants in the city. Its more fun just hanging out there, the inside of that place is amazing. You never would expect whats inside by just looking at the exterior of the place.
