Charcoal Oven Restaurant & Lounge

From 20's gin mill to 40's Northwestern haunt, The Charcoal Oven Restaurant has withstood the test of time and proliferation of sometimes impersonal franchise/chain operations. "The C. O." provides fine memories and simply great food. One of the best romantic supper clubs on the north shore, this 60-year-old family-owned restaurant features fresh flowers, and white linen table-service. Founded by Phillip Georgouses, The Charcoal Oven continues to deliver on its tradition under his accomplished daughter Maria and husband Rich. The full bar harkens back to days when fashionable cocktails preceded great dining. Diners often receive a complimentary loaf of fresh-baked bread or fresh vegetables. A great venue for a private party, a romantic occasion, or to have a steak at the bar and enjoy a baseball or football game. The elegant dining room is intimate, welcoming, laid-back, and will prompt you to be a regular. Recent renovations/updates serve the Charcoal Oven tradition faithfully.
