Zest features world-accented contemporary American cuisine by Executive Chef Hans Lentz in a striking downtown setting. Melding the freshest local produce with ethnic flavors and modern preparations, Chef Lentz draws on his experience working in restaurants spanning ten countries to create original adaptations of regional favorites. A 30-bottle wine list, with 18 selections by the glass, completes the experience.

Perched above Michigan Avenue, adjacent to the hotel’s historic tower, Zest features a cozy atmosphere with remarkable architectural details and terrific views from windows overlooking the Magnificent Mile. Set in the heart of Chicago's business, entertainment, and shopping districts, Zest offers a dining experience that satisfies a range of guests – from locals looking for an after-work refuge, to shoppers sharing a light lunch, to hotel guests seeking a memorable meal with a view.
