UPDATE: I went there again with a few friends last night 10/9/2022 and we were told it was a $20 cover charge for each person, so I was like cool then the lazy guy sitting tried to whisper to the guy that just told us how much we had to pay and I was glued to their lips cause I know how shady and unprofessional they are. He literally told him to charge the guys $40. What a corrupt bunch! We ended up at an old town spot for free and great music, and spent a nice amount on drinks. I'm glad none of our $$ went to them! They need to be educated on business ethics cause this ain't it at all. Plus it's funny how even 8 years ago reviews were just as bad for this establishment, but management doesn't care to fix their reputation. 2021: We tried to get in 30 minutes before closing on a Saturday night and were told we'd have to pay $50 per person to get in for 30 minutes. I was disgusted by their attitude and corrupt behavior. First impressions last long and let's just say I will never give their establishment a second look, not even to grab a bite! Even TAO, which is way more extravagant doesn't charge that for a cover charge except celebrities are there. Just distasteful, ugh!

Such a bs place. Gave our table away just because we stepped away for a few minutes. Hostess was super rude. Trash all over the floor. Vomit in the bathrooms not cleaned up.

Not worth the money. There are better places in Chicago than this place. PRYSM IS DEFINITELY A BETTER PLACE FOR THIS TYPE OF STUFF.

Worst night ever spent here in Chicago, there are better places to visit.
This place is terrible cramped and the managers and staff have no clue what they are doing do not go here !!!!! Payed 700$ on NYE to sit at the smallest table I have ever seen . Had the reservation for 2 weeks and still had to wait in line this place is a joke. DoNot go here. Rude staff rude people terrible service .

I will never visit this place again. Was invited by a promoter who happened to bring his girlfriend, His girlfriend was completely rude to us. Wasn't there for drama! Next time I suggest not inviting your girl to your job if she's going to cause drama!
