When May Street Market opened its doors in 2005, its aim was to feature local farm fare in a high-end restaurant.
Since then, diners have had the pleasure of enjoying fresh market cuisine from a menu that changes with the seasons. Locally grown ingredients are hand-picked daily by acclaimed Chef Alexander Cheswick, a culinary great whose career has journeyed through top restaurants in Chicago, New York, and across Europe. While the dining experience at May Street Market is a reflection of the chef’s expertise, menu prices are surprisingly reasonable. A prix-fixe menu is available Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday for $25 and Thursday, Friday, and Saturday for $36. May Street Markey also offers BYOB Monday through Wednesday. The Slow-Roasted Turkey Leg is one of the more popular menu items this season, confited and glazed with potato, turnip, parsnip purée, and crumbled dried fruits. Whether diners choose to sit in the front of the restaurant for a more laidback experience or in the back “market room” for a more upscale feel, May Street Market offers a clean and welcoming atmosphere alongside trim décor, and displays an impressive array of wine choices. Dishes follow suit, as they are artful in their appearance and equally as flavorful.
