Taste of Randolph Street
Eat, Drink, and be Merry! . . . that’s why we all come every year to Chicago’s Best Street Festival.
Located in the city’s most famous restaurant row, the 15th annual Taste of Randolph Street takes place on Chicago’s Randolph Street corridor. The Taste of Randolph Street is a food-centric festival in the West Loop, a neighborhood that boasts some of the best cuisine in the city.
Home to Stephanie Izard’s Girl & the Goat, Veerasway – Indian food with a twist, and Italian-focused Vivó, Randolph Street is the ideal location for a culinary celebration. Attracting city dwellers and suburbanites in numbers in excess of 100,000, including, in 2010, Vince Vaughn and his wife, Taste of Randolph Street promises to excite and entertain the senses.
