My daughter told me about a Yelp event at D-Lux a week ago. I am from Chicago. Do most yelping there. I read older reviews of D-Lux and they were hit or miss. I usually discount this as you either love or hate a place. For me, D-Lux is a hit. The samplings were great. Let's start at the beginning (food wise). The dips and chips were above average. The spicy corn dip was great. A big hit at our table. The crudite was artfully displayed and for this time of the year extremely fresh veggies. The drinks were varied and skillfully prepared by our bartenders. They were extremely helpful in describing their concoctions. Next came the fries and burgers. Now folks, this is NOT Donald's Mc Donald's nor is it Johnny's Mc Donald's. The place oozes modern chic. The food carries this theme in taste and presentation. The fries were crisp and prepared with delicious variations. The truffle and cheese fries were very good. The fries were something only an upscale restaurant would conjure up and deliver. The burgers were char broiled. Great start. I just love the taste of the charred meat of the burger. My favorite (I am a meat guy) was the fish plus burger. A great idea executed even better. Bring a few friends, order and share some of their varieties. We were getting filled on these tidbits and out came the shakes. Here again, not Mc Donald's. Thank God! We left satisfied and saying to ourselves, I will be back. Keep up the good work!
