Silver Spoon

It's the sister restaurant of Lincoln Square's fantastic Spoon Thai, so we knew it had to be good. The basement restaurant makes a quiet haven from the hustle and bustle that can be the Magnificent Mile. The appetizers, whether you're ordering simple crab rangoon or chive dumplings are great to start out with and the entrees provide a healthy serving of your favorite mainstays or something a little different. It's BYOB and a fantastic and approachable choice–for both new or old Thai-enjoyers.
