Chicago boasts a culinary scene that draws food enthusiasts from around the globe, offering a plethora of top-rated, award-winning restaurants spanning various cuisines. The Restaurant Show is proud to partner with Let's Talk Womxn, a lauded action movement of 120+ award-winning restaurateurs in Chicago and 900+ restaurateurs across 15 cities, to curate unforgettable dining experiences for you at 7 p.m. on Sunday, May 19th.

Secure your seat early as seating is limited and allocated on a first-come, first-served basis. Remember: this is your opportunity to indulge in the best of Chicago's culinary offerings without the frenzy of securing hard-sought reservations! From modern French to vibrant Mexican, cutting-edge Indian-Latin & Indian-Chinese fusion (featuring the globally acclaimed #1 dish by USA Today) and soul tacos (voted #1 Taco in the US by GMA), to a historic bakery café, Vietnamese & Thai delights from a beloved mother-daughter duo, lauded British pub-fare & cocktails, a vegetarian forward “speakeatery”, and urban American cuisine reflecting 40+ years of Chicago heritage—our curated dining experiences promise something for every palate.

Most dining experiences offer curated cocktail/wine pairings and vegan/vegetarian options. Our Let's Talk Womxn dining experience is open to Show attendees and their guests, so bring along your family, friends, clients or colleagues to embark on memorable culinary adventures you’ll talk about long after the Show!
