Big news: Crying Tiger was named one of the best new restaurants in Chicago by Chicago magazine! Here's what they had to say about our latest venture in the city:

"This brash collab between Lettuce Entertain You and chef Thai Dang of HaiSous is a tropical fantasy that paints Southeast Asia in broad strokes. With its great cocktails by Lettuce drinks guru Kevin Beary and a design that suggests a moody Singaporean bar reimagined by a manga artist, this place hits a harmony of right notes. Think of it as a 1960s Polynesian supper club decolonized and reborn: Trader Vic’s minus the offensive stereotypes plus hot spice. (Try the grilled wagyu nam tok. Pow!) Dang designs his shared plates for people who travel enough to appreciate his fusion inspirations. Standouts include prawn toast stuffed into youtiao (Chinese crullers), lobster pad thai served in a clay pot, and a clever-delicious pairing of crisp confit duck with panang curry."

Cheers to the team for this well-deserved recognition!

Honored to be part of something bigger. ⚽️💚

Lettuce Entertain You was proud to support the Urban Initiatives Soccer Ball fundraiser, an incredible evening raising support for safe, free sports programs serving over 100,000 youth across Chicago communities. From the food to the energy in the room, it was a true team effort, and we’re grateful to be recognized with the Community Impact Award.

Huge thanks to the restaurants who showed up and showed out:
Three Dots and a Dash, Mon Ami Gabi, il Porcellino, SUSHI-SAN, Bub City, RPM Italian, Cafe Ba-Ba-Reeba, and Summer House Santa Monica.

A reservation at Shaw's Crab House supports more than you might think.

It starts with coastal fishers working 4,000 miles away in the Arctic and ends with a team that’s been there since ‘84.

These are the hands and histories behind Shaw’s Crab House. ❤️
