Blue Door Kitchen & Garden, home to celebrated Chef Art Smith, is a farm-to-table oasis in the heart of Chicago’s Gold Coast and deeply rooted in the philosophy of letting the seasons dictate the menu. From its inception, the Blue Door brand has become synonymous with sustainability and responsible sourcing. We pride ourselves in showcasing dishes made from fresh, local ingredients sourced from Midwest farms.

Experience a chef-driven menu featuring everything from pierogis and market fresh salads, to Chef Art Smith’s famous buttermilk fried chicken. Walk-ins are always encouraged. Be sure to join us during the warmer weather months when the beautiful outdoor patio is open. While visiting, be sure to enjoy one of Blue Door Kitchen’s garden-to-glass cocktails, local beers or perfectly paired wines from our extensive list.

For reservations eight or larger, please call the restaurant 312-573-4000.

The food was excellent! The restaurant was a bit crowded and loud, and they seemed to be rushing us through service- likely hoping to turn the table. But most importantly everyone like the food. We had 5 people, everyone got something different, and everything was delicious. We were in and out in under an hour, which was not ideal-we were celebrating and would have liked a more relaxed pace.

Dear Heidi, Thank you for your kind words about the food—we’re thrilled that everyone in your group enjoyed their meal! We appreciate your feedback about the pacing of service and understand that a more relaxed experience would have been ideal for your celebration. We’ll share this with our team to improve. We hope to welcome you back soon for a more leisurely dining experience! Best, The Blue Door Kitchen & Garden Team

Fantastic dinner! Had deviled eggs and fried chicken for one person and salmon for the other. Cornbread for all! The cornbread was so amazing! Everything was great. Love the decor and the setup even though the small 2 person tables are pretty close together. Just a great dinner in a nice atmosphere.

Beautiful restaurant, high quality dishes, solid service. Braised beef was outstanding and the fried chicken was good, lightly fried. Fairly empty upstairs for a Saturday night 7pm reservation the day after Valentine’s Day.

The food was really decent. I don’t think it was up to Michelin standards but good the service on the other hand was horrible. Our bus girl was the best thing about service.
Blue Door Kitchen & GardenGereageerd op 17 februari 2025
Dear Steve, Thank you for your feedback. While we’re glad you enjoyed the food, we’re sorry to hear the service didn’t meet expectations. That’s not the experience we strive for, and we appreciate you bringing it to our attention. If you’d be open to sharing more, please reach out to our manager, Jovani, through our website or by phone. We’d love the opportunity to improve and make things right. Best, The Blue Door Kitchen & Garden Team

Me & my wife visited Blue Door on her birthday, and decided to come back on the V-Day. This place is amazing: the quality of food, overall atmosphere and hospitality - it feels like every details there is made to make you feel like home. We ordered a couple of drinks (Smoked Cherry was a top notch), appetisers and mains (Lamb, salmon) - everything was cooked to perfection. Special thanks to our waitress for outstanding service (If you are reading this - you did a great job!), the cooks & to John for complimentary champagne and being so nice :) You, guys, do an amazing job. We will for sure be back! Overall: 5/5
