Dancing Marlin’s sharedplates<br />
concept encourages<br />
sampling, friendship<br />
Eat, drink, share —<br />
Dancing Marlin in Frankfort<br />
is proud to be the first<br />
South Suburban Chicago<br />
restaurant to offer shared<br />
plates featuring fine American<br />
cuisine in an ultrahip<br />
yet informal setting.<br />
Conveniently located<br />
minutes from Interstate 80,<br />
Dancing Marlin offers a<br />
seasonally evolving menu<br />
that highlights innovative,<br />
responsible and sustainable<br />
fare with a purpose.<br />
Diners can experience the<br />
innovative, chef-driven<br />
Dancing Marlin menu, on<br />
which every item is made<br />
in-house from scratch, using<br />
high quality, fresh and<br />
locally sourced ingredients.<br />
In addition to great food,<br />
Dancing Marlin’s sharing<br />
concept provides a lively<br />
and entertaining experience<br />
perfect for dining<br />
with friends and family.<br />
What are the rules for<br />
sharing?<br />
There are no rules!<br />
Guests begin by ordering<br />
a few dishes to share.<br />
Those still hungry can go<br />
ahead and try a few more.<br />
If someone at the table is<br />
not the sharing type — and<br />
there’s nothing wrong with<br />
that — they may enjoy one<br />
of the larger entrées.<br />
People can start their<br />
tasting adventures with<br />
house-made sliders, tacos<br />
or a flatbread, and then<br />
enjoy a DM signature dish<br />
such as “Gnudi”, “The Fig<br />
and the Pig” or the locally<br />
famous “NY Strip Steak”<br />
— served Tuscan-style.<br />
Diners should not forget<br />
to taste the fresh seafood.<br />
Dancing Marlin features<br />
fresh fish sourced direct<br />
from Hawaii, Japan, British<br />
Columbia and other<br />
acclaimed international<br />
seafood locations. Patrons<br />
also can try some of the<br />
acclaimed DM favorites,<br />
such as crab-stuffed peppers,<br />
DM scallops, spicy<br />
garlic shrimp and the daily<br />
“fresh off the hook” specials.<br />
An extensive list of<br />
gluten-free items, as well<br />
as vegetarian dishes, are<br />
offered.<br />
Dancing Marlin knows<br />
when it comes to quality,<br />
details matter. The DM<br />
full service bar offers 18<br />
carefully selected wines<br />
served from a custom tap<br />
system with perfect air and<br />
temperature control for<br />
every glass poured. Eight<br />
handcrafted cocktails also<br />
are offered on tap, many<br />
of which are seasonally<br />
inspired.<br />
The DM staff has a passion<br />
for food and drink,<br />
and customers are encouraged<br />
to ask for pairing<br />
suggestions.<br />
Dancing Marlin recognizes<br />
that dining is as<br />
much about the experience<br />
as it is the cuisine, and the<br />
atmosphere is as rousing<br />
as the food. Interior design<br />
elements are reclaimed<br />
or repurposed, and serve<br />
as a reflection of responsible<br />
and sustainable values.<br />
Diners also can have<br />
a seat at the chef’s communal<br />
table, also known<br />
as “The Kitchen Table,”<br />
where you can experience<br />
an exclusive behind-thescenes<br />
look at the high<br />
energy DM open kitchen.<br />
The atmosphere there<br />
buzzes with excitement<br />
and creates a festive sharing<br />
environment for up to<br />
16 people.<br />
Dancing Marlin is the<br />
perfect setting for private<br />
dining and group events<br />
ranging from cozy family<br />
affairs for birthdays,<br />
anniversaries or showers<br />
to large corporate dinners<br />
and client cocktail parties.<br />
Customers can create custom<br />
menus as unique as<br />
the party being planned.<br />
Dancing Marlin staffs<br />
each private party with<br />
dedicated servers to ensure<br />
everyone has the best dining<br />
experience.<br />
