Sable Kitchen is a very sleek place. It is connected to a hotel, but like Glen Prairie in Glen Ellyn, it pulls it off nicely. You walk into Sable Kitchen and you see leather chairs, bar stools and couches. The floor to ceiling windows give you a nice street view where you can people watch or..make sure your car is still parked where you left it, if you are lucky enough to park nearby. We ate in the bar. It was a bit later in the afternoon so the place was a little quiet. That was fine with us, we needed to chill. Sable Kitchen bills itself as a gastropub. Well, the food might reflect that but the ambiance is more..trendy be seen spot. They actually call themselves a gastro-lounge. Ok that will work.
Our bartender/server was very nice and chatted with us. He was right on with food recommendations. First of all..you have to try their deviled eggs with truffle oil and black trumpet mushrooms. We wanted to order more but..we had other things to try. I had the Gruyere Cheese-Red Onion Jam-Watercress on rye bread grilled sandwich. It was so good. The grilled cheese sandwiches come with tomato bisque. Let me tell you, this tomato bisque is not your sunday afternoon Campbell's soup variety. It was so good, I was sad when it was gone. Another person in our party had the
Crispy Pork Belly Bahn Mi on crusty baguette with asian slaw and cilantro. This Bahn Mi was so incredible and tasty our friend wants to go back asap to eat it again. This is a lounge/restaurant so their beer, wine and spirits list is very good. You can get what you want here and if you try sometime you may get what you need. Diner23 gives Sable Kitchen 3 triangles for food and beverages and 3 triangles for their ambiance.
