About Last Knife (ALK) is an American bistro serving classic dishes with a global flourish. With Chef Oumar Diouf at the helm, the restaurant takes inspiration from his West African roots, as well as Latin American destinations where he’s also lived and worked. The results are familiar favorites like Roast Chicken and Steak Frites, with often surprising ingredients or execution that makes the classics new again. A seasonally curated cocktail list, along with beer, wine, and non-alcoholic beverages, rounds out the experience, pairing perfectly with ALK’s plates big and small. Date night, work meeting, or catch-up with the crew, ALK is the perfect downtown destination for meals any time of day in Chicago.
