Chez Joël Bistro Français Review

Breaking Taylor Street's Italian allegiance, Chez Joel waves the flag for France. The sunny, cozy bistro, run by brothers Joël and Amed Kazouini, serves well-prepared classics like steak frites, coq au vin, escargots, and bouillabaisse. It's a good pasta-free date choice, and a favorite of locals thanks to its authentic bistro feel. Check out the full bar and the reasonably priced wine list favoring French and Californian selections. On a warm Chicago day, ask for a seat outside on the patio.
