Haven't been to either. Just looking at them online, they look like the kinda places I try to avoid.

It's not somewhere I'd normally put on my list but Vol. 39 is right by The LaSalle and is probably the coziest place you'll find in walking distance. Just in case you need a break glass in case of emergency recommendation. Sometimes on date night it's nice to not have to spend a lot of time getting back to your place.

Any POV on those 2?
Just my opinion, but skip both. Machine is gimmicky as hell (they used to be in Wicker) and with Sanctuary, if you're doing Indian-Mexican fusion, Mirra is what you want. I think Sanctuary is showing temporarily closed, anyway. Not sure what's happening there.

You might also consider The Green Mill. It's an adventure from where you're staying but it's legendary and adds music to the mix.

If you stay at The LaSalle, right across the street is the Duncan’s Toy Chest location from Home Alone 2.

All this talk about walking distance in Chicago in late January. No thanks, I’m ubering across the street.
