What are some dinner recommendations that are similar to Daisies?

I READ THE RULES

Last year, my boyfriend & I celebrated his birthday at Daisies & we had an exceptional experience from each dish, the service, to the ambiance of the restaurant. I thought portion sizes were great for each dish & greatly enjoyed our experience.

I'm looking for a similar restaurant to reserve for when we celebrate his birthday soon in October. We will be at Golden Hands Studio (by N Ashland/N Ogden) prior to dinner, so something in the area would be nice. A plus would be if it's been Michelin recognized.

Some spots that have been of possible interest include Alla Vita, II Porcellino, Monteverde, & Ciccio Milo. (Monteverde is pretty low on my list despite high ratings just because of the small portions - doesn't seem worth it to me).
