Love this place!!! The music was pleasantly great and I don’t care for R&B too much, but the music was a good mix of hype energy! The only slight problem I have is that the particular DJ for that night might need a little more experience! His transitions were a bit erratic and switch overly very sharply as if you would think the one song was going to play, but he’ll switch it over right at the good part LOL! But overall, I will keep coming back, unless something bad/weird happens, and hopefully not!

Had an amazing experience at VU Rooftop Bar. The ambience was incredible and the view of the city is absolutely stunning. It’s one of those spots that just feels special the second you walk in.
Our server, Monica, was amazing attentive, friendly, and made sure everything was perfect. We also had multiple staff members check in on us throughout the night, which really showed how much they care about the guest experience.

Two words: AVOCADO TOAST. The breakfast here is my favorite part. Seeing the lake make the southside shine in the morning in this mellow environment is one of the best ways to wake up in the city. The dutch pancakes and the breakfast burrito are also excellent choices. Service is always friendly, views are ruminant, and the vibe is immaculate for a smooth morning for any traveler.
We’re guest at the Hilton. As we inquired about the adjacent restaurant, the host by the elevator suggested Vu. After we stated we didn’t want drinks, i inquired about dining options. But she appeared annoyed and ask if we were sure. Yes, no drinks… well, “what do you want”. After answering a couple questions, she just walked away…
She (Sarah?, older woman), said to ignore the Restaurant Week ($60 fix price) menu, that it was wrong and not good options. So I ordered shrimp appetizer and truffle fries, husband ordered salad and burger. She asked no questions. Later brought my shrimp and his salad. Um, shrimp & fries were my entree. Oh, I’ll put in your fry order! By the time that huge bowl of fries arrived, I only consumed 1/4. Taking them home, no.. “why not”. Don’t want to! Really? I don’t know why I’m still sitting.
While discussing the chocolate cake, place raspberries on the side. “It’s only a couple raspberries, are you allergic” no, just place them on the side… why? Are you kidding me! Icing… auto gratuity for a party of 2! Done!

It was a great vibe. The lighting was just right. And the server was awesome. She was patient with my guest and gave service with a smile.
Nice bar but also overpriced and automatic 20% gratuity is pretty ridiculous
Overall decent I didn't like the gratuity on 2 drinks that was badd all the way around need to do better at the bar .

My first time there was wonderful and amazing; I loved it, and it was my birthday, so it was incredible.
Nice venue, drinks were good.
20% autograt regardless of party size and tab contents.
$7 forced tip on two cocktails is insane.

Waited long to be serviced. All workers seemed busy but there was no one there! Just rude and the place was not busy!
The staff at this restaurant is outstanding! They were friendly and welcoming each time that I ate there. They really seem to like each other and they help each other with all of the tables which makes the dining experience top notch. I especially enjoyed chatting with Melissa during my stay at the hotel. I travel a lot and I enjoyed this hotel restaurant more than most. Thank you.
Nice views
