This was a solid 4/5 for me. Overall nice concept that fills a much needed gap in the neighborhood. To be frank, this almost got a 3 over all for service but because we went for restaurant week I am bumping it up.
Our table wasnât ready for about 30 minutes but it wasnât terrible waiting.
The pre set menu was great but I must admit that the main dishes were very disappointing compared to starters and desserts.
The service was a bit disorienting. There was no ordering because preset (not an issue) but there was not really a greeting or drink order taken (they have a variety of very interesting NA cocktails!). Definitely pulling teeth a little to get anyoneâs attention.

Tried the 60/person 2025 Chicago Restaurant week menu. And you need 20% mandatory service charge. AND you have to pay extra for eating scallop +12 or pork belly +9 as your main course. Otherwise all vegetarian food. The food is good but just not worth the price. I like their potato first course dish.

We paid in advance with Tock for the Supper Series. The food was mediocre. The servers were very nice people but the service was terrible. We were the only table in the restaurant. It was like we were at home and had to take care of ourselves. The server offered the wine pairing and had no idea what the pairing was. I wanted this to be a great experience and tipped accordingly, but alas this was one of the worst dining experiences I've had in Chicago.

We loved our restaurant week experience. The cocktails were amazing and paired well with the food. Mango Pickle definitely deserves their place in the Michelin Bib Gourmand!

Fantastic meal as always. The shrimp captured an authentic Bengali flavor

We were there during restaurant week and got the vegetarian fixed menu. They did a nice job of these options overall but seemed to lack some refinement. Additionally the dinner took quite a long time, a couple hours for a few courses that were of course known ahead of time. The drinks were good but seemed off balance, being either not chilled enough or under sweetened given level of acidity. Felt bad for the bartender who seemed to be not only the only one making drinks, but also bussing tables and other duties.
1. A ânaanâ with crispy kale, aioli, pickled onion. Tasty but rather thick and heavy bread closer to a cross between English muffin and naan 2. Daal Makhani, was about as one might expect. Makhani is always appealing but nothing leapt out as unusual except for the pile of potato chips and a dried tomato that really only detracted from the experience with its leathery texture. 3. A vindaloo paneer with cauliflower. This had the best taste of the savory courses with delicate cheese and a rich sauce. Only downside was cauliflower overly crunchy. Not at all spicy either. 4. A âsundaeâ. Including spicy chcolate mousse, cardamom ice cream, toasted coconut, and tuile. Best dish by far with a lovely variety of textures and classically complementary flavors.

I really like this spot. It's a lot like getting a tasting menu but at a pretty affordable price.

Disappointing. Went for afternoon tea service, food was cold and pretty bland. Came back Underwhelmed on every aspect.
Great drinks and wonderful service!
Delicious Mother's Day brunch! The food was amazing đ€© The chai tea was a little spicy for me but my husband loved it. I preferred the savory foods over the sweets but all were great. The service was fantastic as well. The staff was so kind and welcoming. Highly recommend!
High tea was delicious and fun time well spent
