Avec
Avec is a West Loop eatery with communal tables, a casual atmosphere and serious food. Ordering is easy at Avec. You simply cannot go wrong because the food is that good. Everything on the small menu is meant to be shared. Chorizo-Stuffed Medjool Dates is one of Avec’s most popular dishes. The small plate consists of large dates filled with spicy chorizo, wrapped with bacon and served with a tomato sauce. The chorizo has just the right amount of spice to boost the flavor without being overwhelming. The Shrimp Paella is huge with flavorful rice and a generous amount of cheese topped with large, whole, wood-fired shrimp. The crust on the Burrata Pizza with Kale is chewy on the edges and thin in the middle. For dessert, don’t miss the house-made Nutterbutters, Avec’s gourmet recreation of the classic cookie. Dining at Avec is one of the best deals in Chicago.
