It can be hard to innovate at a cousine that is already very popular and The Stained Glass excels in it. A very nice restaurant with very nice people and amazing food. We ordered the Lobster Bisque and the Crab Cake as appetizers. Both were amazing, especially the soup. In entree we had Australian Lamb Rack and another dish with crab. I absolutely loved both the dishes and would definitely recommend this to a friend. On an average the entree size are okey for one person and costs about $30-40 which is about average for a good restaurant in Chicago downtown, however it may seem a bit more for Evanston but I would definitely say the food was worth it.

I came here for a date after walking around campus with her just before. 1. Crab Cake 10.75 sweet corn arepa, chive oil, crispy boniato ~okay, wasnt as good as last time 2. Free Range Chicken 17.50 sweet corn tamale, red mole, roasted chayote squash ~okay. Thought my salmon was a lot better though 3. Scottish Salmon 25.00 miso glaze, bamboo rice, baby bok choy, lobster-uni emulsion, watermelon radish salad ~not bad, prepared medium rare 4. White Chocolate Panna Cotta 7 Poached peaches, whipped cream, fresh berry gazpacho ~Good, nice palate cleanser

A bit pricey for the quality. A bit of old-world feel - low lighting, velvet, etc. For a more reasonably priced and modern alternative try "The Cellar" - a sister restaurant around the corner from "The Stained Glass".

Fillet mignon made to perfection! Oysters were better than other seafood restaurants in Evanston. It didnt have a fishy flavor. Server was also pleasant and knowledge able in helping us choose wine! Intimate ambiance!

From San Francisco. Tried Stained Glass for first time. Beautiful experience all around. Unique menu and delicious food. Best of all was the George Shearing Quartet playing on the piped in music. Lovely place.

Not terribly veggie-friendly. The veggie entree (singular) is usually pretty good, though not outstanding. The wine selection is (naturally) quite good, though prices for food and drink are pretty steep.

Excellent food and cordial service. My fish was perfectly cooked and the accompanying vegetables were lovely. The baby broccoli was great as were the irresistible frites.

I dont remember exactly what I got, either the short rib or the lamb, but it was amazing. Also the wine samplers are awesome. Food is worth the cost.

The dinner was great, but dessert samplers are not really samplers but several standard (uncut) deserts when you order for a company

Great food, great ambience, great service. Love the fabric acoustic treatments on the walls - it never gets too loud!

It is not cheap, but it is probably the best alternative for a nice dinner (somewhat upscale) in Evanston

Trout well-cooked, but a bit bland. Complimentary bread was flavorless. Extensive wine list.

Always a solid food experience with rotating menu and you have to live the flights of wine!
