Best Restaurants for Special Occasions in Hyde Park

Great variety of Saturday brunch / lunch selections ... various poached eggs, including avocado toast, crab cakes, beef burgers, roasted pork, salmon, and nice vegetarian choices. Soup of the day was an excellent squash. One of us ordered a delicious beef burger and the other a very tasty quinoa mushroom spinach burger. Their signature "frites" potatoes were generous and tasty. A shared lemon ricotta cake with berry compote and very good fresh coffee rounded out our lunch perfectly.

Always a wonderful experience at Bocuse. The food is as delicious as it is beautiful. I didn’t love my Bocuse bowl, but my partner’s pork and my cousins’ entrees were outstanding. The appetizers and desserts were amazing. Thanks to your lovely students and staff.

We’ve been customers for over 15 years and have always loved the food and never been disappointed. We bring all of our friends who have also become Terrapin fanatics as well. The pork chile nachos are life changing :)

Oh, baby, what an experience! My date and I, we were absolutely smashing, yeah! We kicked things off with some bread slathered in beef tallow—oh, it was new, exciting, and downright delicious, baby! Then, we shared the green goddess salad and the 5 onion soup—both of 'em were pure magic, I tell ya! So good, I couldn't help myself, I drank that soup like it was liquid gold. For the main event, we had the lasagna and the trout fish and chips—timeless, baby! So classic, I thought I’d just float away on a cloud of flavor. Lee, our groovy server, was a total legend and made the whole experience a real treat. We'll be back soon, baby—no doubt about it! Yeah!

I expected the tasting to be an in person affair. I work in college admissions and may be more tuned into these issues than most, but it was odd to essentially watch three videos (which were played very loudly) rather than have a guide. The tasting info itself was very interesting and the small tour we received was nice, but be advised you don’t see the full campus. “A taste” is more like it. Very sweet students and excited to go back! If you’re interested in the restaurants, be sure to book those in advance.
