I second the suggestions for Greektown and the Billy Goat. I'll add Boston Blackie's or Hackney's for hamburgers.
Definitely stop at Marshall Field's. The State Street store is amazing.
You might want to take a sightseeing cruise - there are several companies that offer those. All are fun. I've heard really good things about the architecture cruise, though I've never taken it.
There are several neighborhood festivals going on during that time, including the Old St. Pat's World's Largest Block Party, Rock around the Block, and the Chinatown Summer Fair.
Two good sites for things to do/see are
Metromix and
the Chicago Reader
Have a blast - I love Chicago!
