"Probably the best meal of my life (dinner 6/30/11). Exceedingly original while incredibly tasty resulting in the perfect combination. JF had a dairy and gluten free version of the meal which was just as stupendous. Three Michelin stars which are wholeheartedly deserved. If they could award more stars, I think this is the restaurant that deserves it. Grant Achatz is in my mind the best chef in America, if not the world. Could not recommend this restaurant enough. Definitely worth making the trip to Chicago just to eat there. Pic of June 2011 menu. "

"Grant Achatz’s outside-the-box imagination earned this place three Michelin stars and a permanent spot near the top of every best restaurants list. And he still keeps things exciting at Alinea—a garden salad sprayed with salt-and-pepper water and presented in soil, green apple balloons, edible gelatinous cocktails—after a decade-long run in Lincoln Park. Tip: Achatz is one of the godfathers of controversial restaurant ticketing systems. He releases them lottery-style two to three months in advance, but if you’re looking last minute, be sure to check Alinea’s Facebook page where they occasionally post same-day reservations."

@

"Dans la capitale américaine du goût, Alinea représente l'un des restaurants les plus inventifs du moment, sous la direction du propriétaire et chef Grant Achatz. De la nourriture déconstruite aux saveurs étranges, des tables dressées en laboratoire à la vaisselle remplacée par des tubes à essai et autres cylindres, tout est unique dans ce restaurant. Consécration ultime, le guide Michelin lui a accordé trois étoiles en 2010, et il est à ce jour le seul restaurant de Chicago à les avoir conservées. C'est la meilleure adresse de Lincoln Park, c'est aussi l'une des plus chères. Pour les très grandes occasions."

"3 Michelin stars 2024 Chef Grant Achatz Executive Chef Douglas Alley Avant garde of molecular cuisine | From $315-480 Chef Grant Achatz continues to burst with novel ideas at this ingenious, substantive, and festive temple. Dining here is part theater and pure pleasure; and meals are an olfactory experience by dint of scented vapors, tricks, and tableside fun. Executive Chef Douglas Alley is firmly in play, turning out whimsical items that are at times experimental. For starters, a custom resin dish bearing cured Arctic char, crowned by crisped skin glazed with maple syrup. The dish is then flipped to reveal roe suspended in smoke gel. The flavors of Thailand follow in salt-baked kohlrabi shaved tableside. The meal meets its dramatic end with a "Paint" dessert-think of a Pollock-esque creation with blueberries and a liquid N2-frozen block of chocolate mousse smashed to bits."
