Gastronomy has led me around the world learning, creating, exploring, experiencing, and embracing my love of food, wine, and hospitality. As we focus on providing an extraordinary experience for our guests at Christopher’s at Wrigley Mansion, we consider all options. A tasting menu is exciting; an experience filled with wonder and anticipation. But we are also aware that sometimes we want to enjoy a simpler yet distinctive meal. Look forward to the addition of Christopher’s Classics Sunday/Monday evenings, a prix fixe Bistro lunch, and the Chef’s Counter where you can enjoy dining with a front-row seat to the action. Each experience stands on its own and we are proud to offer them in one intimate location. We are always here to do our best for you and to get to know you. We invite you on this journey that will appeal to all of your senses, thanks to the talent of many local artisans who make Christopher’s unique: Our chefs, farmers, architects, and artists. Dine with us and discover the art of gastronomy – Chef Christopher
