Any input on which restaurants are the best deals for the $32 dinners this year (and which ones skimp)?

None of these restaurants are worth mentioning?

Cafe Spiaggia is a deal at that price.

I don't live in Chi anymore so I didn't recognize all the names.

But it looks like every crappy overpriced expense-account restaurant is on the list.

Other than Frontera Grill, I didn't see a single restaurant with a national reputation -- and this in a city that has some of America's best restaurants.

DC's restaurant week just ended. We were given a far far better set of choices.

Yeah, that's what I thought. I wonder what the menu looks like at mortons or ruths chris (I have heard that their restaurant week deal is pretty good)...some of the things on the list I questioned if going there on any normal day would actually even cost $32
