Absolutely love The Vibes in this place I love the rooftop I love the skyline view and the food and drinks couldn't get any better. A couple things on the menu could have been portioned better.. like the one lobster roll.. was pretty tiny.. but it was all so delicious!! I am definitely coming back!!

I had a great time at Azul. Their tacos and margaritas are delicious and they have a great rooftop with good views of Chicago. The staff is also very friendly and attentive. Definitely check this place out!

This is a great spot! Love the atmosphere and location, you can eat right along the river! Food was pretty good but I found it a little pricey for the taste, some items did not seem worth the value. The fish cake sliders are the best though and their crab legs were bomb. Service was a bit slow but it was pretty busy. Parking is a nightmare and their valet blocked in our car. It took them 15 mins to let us out. Overall would go back again via Uber.
