For meat lovers, there’s an option to add grilled chicken or steak, elevating the dish to new heights.
But the culinary excellence doesn't stop there. The Classic Cobb Salad is a crowd favorite, featuring fresh little gem romaine lettuce tossed with house-made blue cheese dressing, crispy bacon, and perfectly cooked grilled chicken.

“ This was the perfect place to have dinner while we were waiting for our train. The location inside Union Station is iconic. The service was very good and the food was excellent. I highly recommend the chicken panini. It was perfectly done, the chicken was tender, and the flavoring was very savory. The side salad with a light dressing was the perfect fresh accompaniment. The prices were surprisingly reasonable for a nice restaurant with most items well below 20. We will be back! ”
