Calumet Fisheries - Chicago, Illinois

Open since 1948, Calumet Fisheries was started by two brothers-in-law who wanted to serve fresh fish in Chicago's South Side. Housed in a tiny one-room shack, the James Beard award-winning restaurant is equipped with a natural-wood smokehouse, used to smoke all kinds of fresh catch, including catfish, eel, rainbow trout, salmon and shrimp, among others. They're known for their incredible smoked fish, but they also offer fried fish platters and plenty of sides. Due to its limited space, food is only available to go, so we recommend eating in your car or standing and eating (it's worth it).
