“I'm from Iowa, took a little weekend trip to Chicago. A friend told us we HAD to try Lula's. SO thankful we did. I will be traveling back to Chicago just to take my mom here. Outstanding service from every single employee, incredible food, and just overall 10/10. Absolutely recommend.“

“my best friend and I just had the BEST experience at the whale! Our waitress taylor was incredible and the manager (so sorry but we never got his name because he was just being so nice to us) was incredible as well. We will definitely return with friends and recommend anyone to try it out! classy, but not snobby, cool decor, warm kind and accommodating staff, and great food and cocktails are just the cherry on top! try the carrot cake after your meal :) Thank you again to taylor and the manager again <3“

“Oliver’s is a truly special place. The atmosphere is cozy and their service is outstanding.

The food is exceptional—every dish we tried was delicious—but the standout was the risotto, made with pumpkin, cheese, and hazelnuts. It was the best risotto we’ve ever had.“

“Had a great experience at Maxwells Trading for dinner this week before a show. The service was truly outstanding. The prosciutto and whipped ricotta dishes were excellent starters, and the mushroom rice was very tasty.
We will definitely be back and next time will save enough room for dessert.
(Also loved the fact that there was street parking available.)“

“Menu is versatile and delivers whether you’re going for a quick lunch or a nice dinner. Pork is the specialty and I vouch. I don’t order tenderloins at restaurants typically but this is probably the best I’ve had — perfectly cooked and a great dish overall. Not among the top echelon of Michelin restaurants ive been to, but not far behind.“

“Ordered "the leap of faith" where the menu is curated by the team. There are 2 options and we chose the more expensive of the 2. Stated we were big meat eaters. Thought every dish was incredible! However, thought the amount of wagyu Picanha we received should've been much more for the amount we spent. Overall, I would definitely come back but this time choose the dishes myself.“

“The food was so delicious!! We got garlic knots and truffle mushroom arancini and it was so good! For dinner we got vodka pasta and build your own pizza. The New York style pizza is delicious with a thin and crispy crust. Service was great, our server checked in on us often and answered all our questions. For dessert we had amaretto tiramisu which was so yummy!! I will be coming back and recommending this restaurant to others!“

“Wonderful evening! We had an amazing dinner & dessert with attentive service with care.“

“I had the mac and cheese with the steak on top absolutely divine🤍“

“Amazing, a perfect evening.“

“Great place! The farmers market was a bonus! Enjoyed the exhibits , Calder was an inspiration in my youth! Lunch was superb! To bad we live in Virginia Beach or I would be a regular!“

“Had an amazing experience, sat outside on a nice night. Apps were amazing, main courses, cocktails and even dessert were all delicious. I'm not going to lie I don't like duck and was apprehensive but it was all delicious. Probably the best French dip sandwich I've ever had too. 10/10“

“Great for private events! Very accommodating, kind and attentive staff, delicious brunch buffet option! Recommend strongly. We hosted my sister’s bridal shower here, and it was perfect!“

“Everything is delicious.“

“You would never know. Just walk on by. But it’s your loss if you do. The food is amazing. Flat out good. So much better than any of those downtown corporate places. Cooked with heart and profoundly good flavor, texture and palate. Next door to perhaps the best pasta in the Midwest, this restaurant and bar should be on your list.“

“The food is excellent. Drinks awesome.“

“Great food and ambience! Can’t wait to come back! 👍“

“Exquisite food, excellent service and a great chill vibe... We so enjoyed every bite of gastronomic deliciousness! Standout dishes were à la mode, a teeny apple tart atop foie gras ice cream and sablefish, served with a rhubarb puree. I'm leaving out several ingredients because there were so many, it was such a diverse menu all around. Thank you so much to everyone at Schwa for the outstanding meal!“

“We’re huge fans of The Bear, which steered us here on our Chicago trip - so glad we found this place! We loved the mushroom adobo and longnanisa breakfast sandwich! The mango tarts were amazing, as were our lattes. We left with an apple hand pie to eat the following morning, which was still had perfectly crispy pastry. Definitely worth the hour wait to get in.“

“Good ambient service not so good“

“Beautiful food and wine. Great atmosphere. Staff that were attentive without being overbearing. Michelin stars. And a 5m walk from the apartment. This could become an expensive habit!“

“Run don’t walk to John’s. This place has been on my list for quite some time and I finally had a chance to try their tasting menu and they didn’t miss on any dish. The food was creative without being pretentious and the team’s service was exceptional. A well deserved nod on the Michelin guide that is no doubt headed for higher praise in the near future.“

“Had our holiday celebration and had an extraordinary experience - great food and excellent service.“

“Great spot for food

I went to Krave Restaurant in Bridgeview last week and really liked it the staff were super friendly and made us feel welcome from the start. The place is cozy and easy to feel comfortable

We had the Lamb Chops & Eggs and it was really good the lamb was tasty and eggs cooked just right. Also tried the waffles they were light and fluffy with bacon and eggs really hit the spot. Portions are big so you leave full

Overall a nice place good food good people I will come back for sure“

“Gilt Bar "gets it". A foodies playground. Top notch flavor and beautiful decor throughout. The Ron Zacapa 23 Rum is 🤌🏾 Oh, and don't forget to take a few pics in the photo booth downstairs 📸“

“Great variety and unique flavors. Great vibe.“

“Initially we had a few issues. The room wasn’t ready and the kids were fussy and tired but the hotel gave us free deserts in the restaurant Adorn. They were amazing. The customer service was excellent. We finally got to our beautiful room with spectacular views and were very happy but the kids stuff that we requested wasn’t there. They again made up for it and went over and beyond. The kids loved getting an ice cream party, robes and treats. Four Seasons is an outstanding hotel. We will definitely be back. We’ve been home for 2 days and the kids already want to go back!“

“I love this American restaurant, the food is delicious, satisfying and enjoyable. I especially love the burgers and fries, they are freshly made and very authentic. In addition, the environment here is also very comfortable and spacious, which makes people feel very relaxed and happy. The waiters are also very friendly and welcoming, they always greet guests with a smile and provide many useful tips and recommendations. All in all, this is a very good American restaurant and I will come here often to enjoy the food and time.“

“10/10 experience with Eddie! Had a birthday event for some friends and he was super helpful and accommodating! Definitely would recommend this place! Can’t wait to come back!“

“Brunch at the 3 Arts Club Café at RH Chicago is a truly elevated experience. As expected from RH, the ambiance is beautiful —an effortlessly elegant space filled with natural light, greenery, and that signature timeless design. It's not just a beautiful venue—it delivers on food and service as well. The brunch dishes are delicious, thoughtfully prepared, and made with high-quality ingredients. Each plate feels refined yet comforting, striking the right balance for a weekend brunch. The service is warm, attentive, and professional, enhancing the overall experience without ever feeling rushed.“

“Had a great experience here twice while in Chicago for the National Restaurant Show. Once for brunch and once for dinner !! Let's start with brunch.. It was out of this world, staff was friendly and attentive, the hazy ipa was crisp and ice cold, then the tour of the menu kicked off and I was In foodie heaven! I warned the bar tenders I would need some Boxes as I was about to do a dining tour through the menu.. the anchovy toast was #insanegood, the pimento cheese eclair was out of this world, the oysters were fresh, the Benedict was crazy with boudin noir blood sausage crab hollandaise sauce on eclair style muffin! The French omelet with caviar was crazy good it was floating in an amazing sauce and the eggs were perfectly cooked and the caviar was the perfect garnish , the asparagus with poached egg with the sauces it was hanging out in were top notch .. The loyalist burger was fire and I am hard to please on burgers.. the details on everything were impressive all in a casual spot downstairs from the Michelin level concept the chef has !! To finish off the meal one of the best things I have ever had was the pistachio eclair !! WOW WAS AN UNDERSTATEMENT!! Came Back a few days later for dinner service and did the same thing started out ordering a stack of boxes so I could work my way thru the dinner menu !! The Spence farm egg with caviar app was amazing !! The French onion eclair was another genius chef creation with an eclair, the cod quenelles, the beef Tartare, and endive salad were on point in all the ways .. then came the mains .. ordered the ocean trout and the gnocchi dish as a side kick .. both of those were some of the best dishes I have had .. the skin was so crispy on the trout but not burnt like how did you get this so perfect .. secretes of the kitchen is how .. the preparation and plate up with the trout was nothing short of a perfect pairing and the gnocchi made another side kick but could have been an amazing entree .. then to finish it off the orange 🍊 glazed brioche dessert that was flambéd table side was the perfect ending to a 5 Stars all around memorable Dining experience !! When in Chicago this chef and team is a must try! I will for sure visit their Michelin level experience as this was Michelin level In A causal environment!!“

“Went with my daughter and her bestie for brunch.. cute place, my food was really good(avocado toast) and they enjoyed their food and the endless mimosas.. friendly staff,relaxed atmosphere , overall pleasant experience for us😊“

“A very creative kitchen serves up surprising dishes in every course, even dessert, where many restaurants just go through the motions. They also serve up cocktails that you are not likely to see anywhere else. What comes as no surprise, is that they are a Michelin starred restaurant.“

“Esme is truly an experience to have. We did the menu and the wine pairing and it was amazing. From the presentation to the food was unbelievable and will definitely do it again as it changes quarterly“

“Simply amazing! Every bite had a story. There’s an art to what they do here.“

“Loved the shrimp cocktail! The patio is romantic! My ribeye was seasoned and cooked perfectly. The whipped potatoes are delicious. The staff is attentive. My husband enjoyed his grits. You won’t be disappointed.“

“We've been here multiple times for pre theater dinners and have always been happy with the experience. The food is consistently delicious and if you get there for happy hour it's a bonus. It can get crowded so if you don't want to sit at the bar, book a reservation. And get the Oh My Caramel Pie!!“

“Good food. Large place so plenty of seating. 2 bars. Server claimed they were “changing” things so the Happy Hour was 3-5. All sign’s said 3-6. Ok….. he was a bit slow too but it was convenient cuz our hotel was across the street.“

“Wow, this place is AMAZING? Great service, hopping atmosphere, and every single one of our dishes were delicious. We will be making this establishment a regular breakfast place during our Chicago visits! Food ordered was: Breakfast burrito Croissant Sandwich Buttermilk pancakes with a side of crispy bacon!“

“Exquisite service, food, and atmosphere. Very detail is attentive as you are guided around the dining space to explore the food at various destinations within the space. Would recommend: the non alcoholic tea pairing with food. Favorites: any of the fresh fish dishes and the turbot with dill sauce.“

“This was my very first fine dining experience and it will definitely be my second (and third, and fourth)! The food was amazing and beautiful, and the service was just IMPECCABLE. I felt like I was in another world for the two hour experience. It was also very comfortable and non pretentious which I really appreciated. Thank you to everyone who was part of my evening at Ever. Can’t wait to see you again soon!“

“Wonderful atmosphere and service!“

“I had one of the best dinner experiences ever, the food was outstanding but the service was extra special. We will be back! Congratulations“
