The most authentic French bistro I've seen outside of France. Menu changes daily, house wines at $6 a glass, and staff don't bat an eye if you linger on the vine-covered patio for three hours. I often "work" there in the afternoons, just nursing a bottle of rosé and watching folks stroll the Old Market.

Mark's is definitely the stomping ground of the suit jacket and sensible heels set, but the 2nd floor patio is like eating in a treehouse, so who can blame them? Happy hour offers 1/2 price bottles of wine, so come early, grab a bottle, and then stick around to drink it during dinner!
Set in the fun, walkable neighborhood of Dundee, where you can find tons of other great shops and restaurants. While you're in the 'hood, check out: Pitch Pizza, Avoli Osteria, Le Quartier Bakery, New Amsterdam Falafel, Dario's, eCreamery, Cork & Bottle, Hello Holiday, and Scout Dry Goods & Trade.
