I'd been to that location when it was PrimeBar and was happy to see that Beatrix kept the vibe while making some smart changes to the space. It was a bitter cold Friday in Chicago, but the restaurant was doing a brisk lunch business. I was with a friend for her birthday. We both loved our food... she had that brilliant Prime Burger and I had the Asian Chicken Salad. My plate was cleaned. My friend declined her birthday treat, but the server wrapped up a cookie for her to take home. Very nice people. Luxury feel without outrageous prices.

Such an amazing experience especially with two kiddos (8 & 5)! Such a variety of wonderful menu items! Would highly recommend!

I've been to Beatrix many times, and this location specifically 2-3 times. The service and hospitality at my last visit was atrocious - very unlike the previous experiences I've had. My friend and I had theater tickets, and we informed our server when we sat down at 5:15 that we had to leave by 6:30. We placed an order for happy hour drinks, and drinks were delivered normally. We placed our food order at that time, probably around 5:30. We didn't see our server again until we realized it was 5:57 and happy hour was about to end. We flagged her down, and placed an order for one more round, asked after our food. Ten minutes later, our drinks were delivered by a runner - not our server - still no food. At 6:10, we asked a busboy to find our server. She came at 6:15, no food in hand, so we asked again, and told her again we had to leave shortly. She brought our food, which - shocking - was ice cold. Not even room temp, it was as if it'd been sitting in a fridge. We told her, and she had the manager come over, who offered to replace our meals, but we had no time to wait for cooked food. She brought us 1 whipped feta appetizer to share, did not comp any of our drinks, and sent us on our way without dinner and a $30 bill. Both manager and server were frustratingly unbothered by the situation; no sense of urgency or care. I won't be back to this location.

My family ate dinner at Beatrix Loop on December 23, 2025. The food was delicious, the service was great, and the ambiance was terrific. We had a 4:45 pm reservation and they seated us promptly when we walked in the door. We had tickets for a 7:00 pm performance of Phantom of the Opera. The dinner was timed appropriately so that we were able to make it to our show in plenty of time. We highly recommend Beatrix Loop as the spot for dinner in downtown Chicago!

We took our family, including three children, to Beatrix post-Nutcracker. The service was wonderful and we all enjoyed the relaxing bar-side seating.

Our food was hit or miss. The server was indifferent. There are too many other options to go back.

We went to Beatrix for dinner before a show. We were seated promptly but took more than 20 minutes for our drink order to be taken and another 20 minutes to flag down our server again to order dinner. My french onion short rib came out cold. My husband's whitefish was bland. Disappointing for sure — it wasn't an inexpensive meal.
Rosalind
The food was good overall, but the green curry dish was not so good. The rice was eldente, basically not cooked enough, and very spicy. Unfortunately, two of my party ordered it, and were not happy. The server was very nice and accommodating when 2 of our party of 6 was running late. We would still go back at another time. Overall experience was ok.
Rebecca
The host and hostess at this restaurant were not friendly and made for a negative first impression coming to this restaurant. We were told we had to wait 10 min for our reservation, that they were running behind. However there were many empty tables. Then We were given a table in an undesirable location. Our server was nice, but The food and drinks took a while to come out, not his fault. My daughter's pasta was dry and sad looking. Our server didn't check on us until half way through the meal and we had to get to our performance. I will not return to this Beatrix location and next time we go to the Lyric Opera will be choosing another restaurant.
great meal...great with our table's allergy issues (celiac, dairy and nut). We loved our server Nicolas! He did a great job and was fun! We really enjoyed everything!
Carrie
We've been here multiple times for pre theater dinners and have always been happy with the experience. The food is consistently delicious and if you get there for happy hour it's a bonus. It can get crowded so if you don't want to sit at the bar, book a reservation. And get the Oh My Caramel Pie!!
Stephanie
Service was very slow but everything else was good, as we have come to expect from Beatrix
Judy
The table service was lacking but otherwise it was a fabulous meal and a great location for our needs.

Their soups are comforting and delicious.
