If you are looking for someplace unique, with a lot of ambience and a menu where you want to try a little of everything, then make it a point to try The Bank Lane Bistro in Lake Forest. It's just what the name implies - a French bistro. You have to climb a flite of stairs (elevator available), where you will find a cozy little bar and three small dining areas, one of which is a veranda that overlooks Market Square. The menu is what you would expect to find in some out of the way country inn in the French Alps. Wood fired dishes range from pizza to rack of lamb. Fresh seafood is served how and done to perfection. Salads are a beauty to behold. Even the bread basket smacks of a French patisserie. Definately worth going out of your way to visit.
Pros: Ambience, Wine list, Food selection
Cons: A bit pricy.,
