Note, however, that it's not open Saturday or Sunday.

I recommend the roasted duck with Chinese broccoli, the som tum, the red curries, and the tom yum noodle, but there's nothing I'd say to stay away from. The ingredients are fresh, the cooks know what they're doing, and I like almost everything on the menu. It gets overlooked under the el tracks, but that's a shame. It's a very nice room, carpeted for easier conversation, and large enough that it's fairly easy to get in.

I no longer work two doors away from Siam Rice, but it's still my top choice for Thai food in the loop and easy walking distance to both the Goodman and Lyric. I'm not too current on the Civic Opera House, but there is also a Giordano's near there and the Italian Village, while not exciting, is reliable. Miller's Pub is probably your best for inexpensive dining near the Goodman, although you can get a light nosh at Bin 36 for not too much or there's always Gold Coast Dogs or Giordano's. If you order carefully, you can get away without spending too much at Vinci, where after all these years, I still love the house specialty polenta. There aren't really good cheap eats near these theaters, but my favorites for relatively low-cost dining near Steppenwolf include Goose Island, for brewpub fare, although they are closing by the end of the year Pizza Capri, 'gourmet'-type flatbread pizzas (I like the Thai chicken pizza) and Uncle Julio's, real Tex-Mex, plus surprisingly decent ribs and sometimes goat.
