My husband and I really enjoy great service and paired with good food; it is worth our time and money. Even though our visit was on the spur of the moment, we were able to get a great table. We arrived about 30 min to an hour before the restaurant became full. We were treated the same as those who had prior reservations and we were not rushed.The service/sever was great. Alex was very familiar with the menu, providing excellent descriptions of specials . Alex was attentive, checking to make sure we were enjoying our meal. Alex was also kind and friendly. Our meal (roasted chicken) was delicious. The chicken was cooked to perfection….very tender. If we could change one thing (minor) would be the lemon and caper jus. Flavor/taste was good, but it was just a little too much for us….the mash potatoes (which were tasty) disappeared into the jus. Loved the kale…very tender. Now, for the dessert(s); we are not sure how often the dessert menu changes, but the dessert menu on Saturday, April 12, 2024, presented a hard choice. Saving calories, we opted to share….we chose the Pound Cake filled with warm banana pudding, and drizzled with a rum sauce. This dessert was “De-Lish”, and worth every calorie. The pound cake was moist with a nice texture and the banana pudding was warm and full of flavor. Also, the sauce was so delicious, we tried to get every drop off the plate.?Again, we would recommend Chicago Firehouse!
Delicious food, reasonable price, and very hospitable staff!!!

First time there it was amazing all over staff was great seated very quick. Pricy but worth every bit of it. Wine was great n very good. A bunch of couples went and we hade a amazing time. I just don't like how if you want to have a big party they want you to pay a big steep deposit of 1000 dollars.Parking: We ubered to the place but there were valet there.

Consistently great experiences. We have family from Seattle who always have steaks on their travels, they rate CF #1. The staff are very knowledgeable and attentive. The ambience in the bar is great...historic, comfortable, great sight lines. The Blue Room speakeasy and upstairs terrace are hidden gems.
The French onion soup was good. The drinks were delicious. The chicken sandwich was huge. It's a bit dry and not spicy whatsoever.

Tonight was our first time enjoying dinner there and it was amazing our server Maddie or Matty I just wanna make sure he was amazing. He was very sweet. He spoke about some things he went through and made a joke at the end I love I love good customer service. The food was phenomenal. Everything was good. He spoke of the steak which was amazing ? I can’t wait to come back service was top notch everyone was so sweet great job beautifully set up
Today, my spouse provided me with a surprise birthday dinner at Chicago Firehouse Restaurant , 1401 S. Michigan Ave. What an elegant experience. The atmosphere elegant, wait staff professional and attentive to the extreme. The food mouth watering, we left stuffed, happy and can’t wait to go back. This restaurant is totally upscale, so dress appropriately. We also loved that they had valet parking. Having a special occasion, romantic night out, want superb service, excellent food, this is the place to go.
We came to the Chicago Firehouse for Easter Brunch, it was absolutely wonderful and our waiter Matty was attentive and engaging. The food was delicious and prepared to perfection. What a wonderful way to spend Easter!
Amazing service from the moment you come through the door. I'm here for just over a week from London and I loved my time here. I'll definitely be coming back before I leave. The guy looking after me was Steve and made me feel welcome and comfortable the whole time. Thank you!?
