Plan an evening for two with these local recommendations.
Dinner Tava – Recently opened in Morton Grove, this restaurant offers traditional Indian dishes, signature cocktails and a warm ambiance.

Second Street Bistro Stashs owner Bobby Dubin has jumped on two foodie trends with his new restaurant, Second Street Bistro: organic, locally produced food and BYOB (Bring Your Own Booze). He's hoping both will make the bistro, which recently opened, a big hit in Highland Park and along the North Shore. The food, described as "upscale American with a twist," includes dishes like shaved organic brussels sprouts, slow cooked beef short rib, herb marinated amish chicken and gluten-free quinoa spaghetti. The food is made with local and organic ingredients, whenever possible. Cafe Central At the Zagat-rated Cafe Central, you might as well be in Paris' Opera district or at La Bastille.
