    GHITA JONES - MOST INCREDIBLE TALENT WITH HAIR IN CHICAGO!!!

    I've been to Mario and Aveda and too many other salons to mention and none of them compares to Saks where I found Ghita Jones. She took the time to listen to what I wanted and gave me even more than I could have ever expected! She gave me a great stylish cut that is so complimentary to the shape of my face. My color and highlights are so natural and beautiful I still haven't stopped receiving compliments. I don't know where she learned her technique but kudos to her mentor! I wish I would have found Ghita years ago. She seems to be the best kept secret in Chicago but not for long if I have anything to say about it. The good news is I found her now and I hope to God she'll be around for years to come!!!

    Overall worth the trip!

    If you're planning on a quiet dinner don't go here. This place is so loud you may even need the skill of reading lips to get through your dinner conversation. Despite the noise levels the food is excellent! They offer to choose your meal for you but if you're clear what you like or don't like I would ask to see the menu. The have a great variety of ""land"", ""air"", and ""sea"" fare. The wine by the glass choices are very limited but the Pinot Grigio is a light and fruity one that I recommend. The shrimp with glazed walnuts is a surprising treat. The pairing is an unexpected fit. The sole is light and delicate but flavorful. The glazed pork is tender and juicy. The fried rice is not what you would expect but a delicious original creation without soy sauce. For dessert the berry tart is not to be missed. It is light and fresh and a great finish. The service was lacking in promptness upon being seated but improved as the meal progressed. The staff can be a little eager to take your items away too quickly. The prices are high for the portions you receive. Overall despite the cost, noise and the staff the food was worth the trip.
