From the hostess showing us our table to the waiter knowing the menu, it was a wonderful experience. Humberto, our waiter, gave accurate reviews on what we ordered. Delicious! Managers even came over and asked how everything was. We will be back.
We went around 7pm and there wasn't many people. We first sat at the bar, but it wasn't moving. So he moved to a table around the bar in order dinner. Our steak was at best Warm and our drinks were not good. My husband sent his drink back and it was perfect the second time. The restaurant just did not have the same vibe as advertise in the pictures nor the same quality of food.
This is such a cool hidden gem and the service was both fast and excellent. It's a great spot before a show at one of the many nearby theaters.
Lovely vibe and decor. Quiet, very good food and amicable service. Would definitely go again!
The burger was absolutely delicious!!! Would highly recommend. Super juicy and flavorful, one of my new favs in Chicago for sure. We got there right when it opened, so not many people and was a little stiff/awkward, but I think later in the evening would be perfect.
Great service atmosphere and great food! Even if you don't sit at the carousel bar you get a nice view as it slowly revolves. 10/10
We had an anniversary meal last night and it was a fantastic experience! They gave us special extras. The ambiance is cozy without being too stuffy and the rotating bar is a hoot! I'll absolutely go back.
Our server was engaging and helpful. We needed them to expedite our meal and they obliged. The food was delicious.
They did an excellent job accommodating our large, pre-theater group with great service and reminders about when to order for a relaxed on-time experience. Very friendly staff and a nice selection of food. Highly recommend.
Fabulous place!

Went here for dinner before a show at the Cadillac Theater. Very convenient, food was good, service was ok (primarily because it was very busy with pre-show goers) and the atmosphere was a lil noisy. But overall, a good option, especially for after work or before a show. Some hits: the onion dip and Brussels sprouts chips for apps and the pasta. Some misses: the mussels and the crab cakes.
It’s not often that you are left with an experience that moves you to day dream right after your meal. The burger is worth the hype, little more pink on the meat would have been welcomed but didn’t take away from the flavor. Best French fries I’ve had all year, trust me I live for cheeseburgers and French fries. Overall couldn’t be more greatful for the experience. 11 out of 10 would recommend. Thank you to Michael and his team for taking care of us.
Food was average. Everyone ate their meal but would not choose to eat here again pre-theater. Crab cakes were small and fried breading on outside. Waiter was kind but not attentive.
My friend and I finally got a chance to come to this restaurant and we couldn't get out fast enough. Though if it were up to the server, we would have been out even faster. The drinks were very good and the food, though small portioned, was also quite good. The server rushed us the entire stay and didn't mention ahead which menu items were unavailable. Once we learned the entrees we wanted were not options, he expected us to tell him our alternative right away. He later asked my friend if she was done or still working on her fries. She was still working on her fries so he walked away, someone else immediately came to our table and asked her if they could take her plate while she was still eating her fries. We immediately paid and left.
Great experience. The food was delicious and the service was wonderful! We'll definitely be back soon.
