We stopped for a light dinner, the location is strategic, on Michigan Ave across from Millennium Park after checking out the Christmas tree lights. However, we were disappointed by the underwhelming food. The octopus is heavily dressed and too spicy and sour. The batter on the calamari is not good. The pane della casa is mixed taste, the cracker is a bit bitter as if it's over toasted. The apple panzanella, however, is surprisingly good, it looks simple but has complex taste...
The wait staff were great but the manager(guy in suit) was less than reasonable. After we'd paid about a $400 bill, we discussed if if we were going to order a bottle of champagne or wine next. Then this average male, in a suit came to our table to ask about our experience. He then proceeded to tell us thay he needs the table. Wow! Ridiculous! Ive managed and owned businesses (including restaurant and nightlife) for a very long time, this is definitely not the way you...
I are here tonight (11/16/2025) for dinner while in town on business and was very happy with the entire experience. Molly behind the bar was a delight and great person to interact with. I highly recommend Acanto if you find yourself in Chicago.
