Billy Lawless is excited to announce a new chapter in the life of the historic Gage building – the opening of Acanto. The word Acanto is the Italian translation of Acanthus – the flowery leaf used extensively in Roman architecture and by famed architect Louis Sullivan in his distinctive terracotta ornamentation found on the facade of the historically landmarked building at 18 South Michigan...
From the creators of The Gage comes Henri energetically American, French influenced. Heralded as an instant classic , Henri offers fine dining without pretention. Under the direction of Executive Chef Chris Gawronski, Henri's menu is influenced by the refining principles of classical cuisine. Innovative dishes like kampachi crudo join traditional favorites such as foie gras, steak tartare,...

Creamy risotto with mascarpone gets studded with seasonal ingredients throughout the year. The red-washed dining...
Acanto, the casual Italian reconcept of Henri, looks familiar in some ways and brand new in others. The bones are similar—specifically the bar that sits to the right of the door—but the decor and feel are much different.
You read the menu before Acanto soft opened last night; now take a photo tour of the restaurant below.
Tonight's the night that Billy Lawless (The Gage, The Dawson) opens his first Italian restaurant and the former home of Henri has a new concept. Acanto, originally named 10/6, soft opens the doors in a matter of minutes on Michigan Avenue.
Chef Chris Gawronski's opening dinner menu is indicative of Lawless' desire for Acanto to be more relaxed and easier to navigate than its formal French...

Great trout especially excellent
The food is always delicious at Acanto. We especially love the cappelletti (so lemony -- yum!) and the beautiful salads, but everything is wonderful. We've been to Acanto enough times to try almost everything on the menu. It's also a great spot to eat before the CSO, since Symphony Hall is just a short walk away. All of the employees are welcoming and just exactly attentive enough. This is a...
V-Day date, great presence and service
❤ Day date nite. Great find for out of towners and recommend for all! Small restaurant, quiet ambiance. Had excellent service. Food was wonderful, Italian but with gentle tweak. Chicken cacciatore was not a pounded breaded heavy dish, but boneless breast baked in a brown/red sauce not smothered in cheese. Tasted fresh, healthy, delish! Lasagne was vegetaian, mushroom in a creamy sauce. Also so...
We had a wonderful semi-working lunch on a Wednesday. The dining room is quite small and it feels cozy and is reminiscent of cafés in Europe.

The Italian sister of the Gage; upscale cuisine, great wine selection, and nice cocktail list. Outdoor seating, right on Michigan avenue. Recommended appetizer: The sashimi-style tuna crudo ($19) or the arancini ($12) (delicious!). Entree: Veal Parmesan was excellent. Recommended wine to try: The Ferdi Sartori (most popular white wine in Italy?) - for sure a unique wine, not too dry, not too...

Henri, Llc is located at 18 S Michigan Ave in Chicago and has been in the business of Eating Places since 2010.
Henri is your best fine dining option in or near the loop. This restaurant is for a special occasion - put on your fancy dress, order a cocktail in a long-stemmed glass and chose from a menu of classic french-inspired dishes. The "Crown Tower of Seafood" includes oysters, mussels, ceviche, lobster, crab and squid for $130. The smoked steak tartare is awesome.
The Gage's super classy French sister. Frou frou French cocktails & frou frou French food conveniently located across from Millennium Park.
Gorgeous French dishes and an elegant wine and cocktail list. The tasting menu is a delicious extravagence.
The restaurant pays homage to architect Louis Henri Sullivan, who designed the building?s jaw-dropping terra cotta façade.
Though a jacket and tie is not required, dress accordingly when dining here: super-casual duds will leave you feeling out of place.
