Regina’s has been closed for some time now.
Chicago is the 3rd largest city in the US. New York – Los Angeles – Chicago.
Also, Arkadia Deli? really? that place is a roach infested crap hole. Polina and Zahar, the owners, are very nice, but the quality of food is sub-par at best. There are exactly 2 tables, which are almost always occupied by local drunks. Bad choice.
Tbilisi is not a russian restaurant, it is Georgian. And ever since Thomas sold the restaurant, the food has become inedible. Unless you’re a starving homeless bum.
Wheres Petergoff? Astoria? White nights? even XO would be a better choice. You’re top 10 list is waaaaay off.
