8:30 reservation. Host and Manager at front desk were great. Host was also super accommodating for seating choice. That's the end of the experience. Restaurant was less than half full and was never greeted. Handed manager the menus and left about 15 minutes after being seated.

We usually love Chicago Winery but it was so empty that they ended up closing the tasting room early.

Superb Selections!

We went for Easter brunch. The food was delicious and fresh. Service was outstanding, as well as the entire staff. Quiche, beet salad, charcuterie board, ham were very, very good. Kudos to LIVA for a wonderful experience!

Had a friend and 2 younger sons come and visit and Chicago Winery made it so easy. We got some cheese and like 7 small plates and it was super fun and easy. One of the boys was into food and our server Greg told the chef and he actually came to the table. It was so cool. The albarino was really good. Great experience and sitting by that fireplace was awesome ambiance. Will definitely be back.

Had brunch after a wine tour. The French toast was awesome and the bacon was cooked crispy- just how I like it. Carlos was my server and super friendly. He answered all my questions and even told me a bit about the building and what they do (also he made a great Irish Coffee). Natasha at the door was really nice and friendly- very hospitable. Definitely recommend them for brunch!

I wasn't expecting much, but I was definitely disappointed. For a winery, not much of a wine selection. Also, food was what I expected, but still felt cheap and thrown together. Finally, I wouldn't blame our server, Jordan was super pleasant and attentive, but simple stuff like not having multiple beers listed on tap, too much time to get our food and drinks, and fruit flies in water is not acceptable. The place was not what we expected. We have gone to Chicago winery on the river multiple times. I would not come back to this location, even for a drink.

We had the Valentine's day 5 course package, portions were smaller than an appetizer, hostess was very rude when greeted even though I had reached out via OpenTable to let them know we were running late, hostess was condescending. Again, portions were extremely small for 200 bucks, dessert was a literal roll up and mousse with a baby spoon. We were still hungry after dinner and will not be back again. Prices are insane and the dishes were smaller than a kids meal anywhere. Will not come back ever again.

The name Liva has Scandinavian and Finnish origins, with its meaning derived from the Finnish word for life or lively. This connotation imbues the name with a sense of vitality and energy, making it a popular choice for parents seeking names that symbolize a vibrant and spirited existence.
We went for Valentine’s Day The food and service were very good The scallops were great as were the potato croquettes And the deserts were fabulous too A chocolate mousse and a fun “Lady and the Tramp-like” roll up There seem to be two or three sections of the restaurant, and one, to the right of the front entrance, was much more lively. I would ask to sit on the right side We were seated on the left side, presumably because of a wedding party, so we didn’t see the most beautiful port of the restaurant
Me and my friends attended a Galentines wine tasting here and it was phenomenal. We had thee most gracious host Andras who was more than accommodating. My group couldn’t be more thankful to have experienced his service.

We had the best night trying a wine flight! We joined the wine club and our server Charlie was the absolute best! 🩷
