Doug and I got fancy and went to see The Magic Flute at the Lyric Opera tonight. We both decided we aren't the hugest opera fans, but it was fun to get out and see the show. Before the show we did one of my favorite things...ate out!
Madison Tavern
We ate at Madison Tavern because it was conveniently located in Olgilvie train station, was close to the opera house, and had reservations.
Doug had a beer and jambalaya. I had an "Olgilvie Old Fashioned" (which was pretty much just a regular Old Fashioned) and a lobster roll with fries. Unfortunately, I was
Madison Tavern is located inside Olgilvie Station on Madison and Canal in the Chicago Loop. It's kind of an upscale sports bar. It seemed to be popular with the "after-work crowd." I would recommend it if you are in the neighborhood and want a casual restaurant with a more upscale menu than a typical sports bar. It is very convenient if you are traveling to/from Olgilvie Station or the nearby Union Station.
Grades:
Megan: A - The drink was good. The lobster roll was delicious, but not the best lobster roll I've ever had.
Doug - A- (Doug said his Jambalaya needed more rice but the taste was on-point.)
Noelle - No grade from Noelle. She had to stay home and eat leftovers.
