“We had a 5:45 reservation but we're not seated until 6:15, which was frustrating since we had to leave the restaurant by 7:30 in order to pick our kids up from a party on time. However, everything was smooth sailing after we were seated and our server was excellent as was the food! I will always be annoyed, however, when I have to wait to be seated 30 minutes after my reservation time.“

SixtyFour - Reserve Room American • $$

“I would give this place 100 stars if able! I had to plan a rehearsal luncheon for my son's wedding in Joliet in mid May with only 2 months notice. Since we live in North Carolina, I had to do all the research online. Thank heaven I came across SixtyFour Reserve Room in a Google search. The manager, Andrew, contacted me right away and was so helpful in making suggestions for our event. Cheryl, the events manager, took over in finalizing all the arrangements. There are so many different options for appetizers, meal combinations, wine, cocktails and beer! Our guests were able to choose their favorites ahead of time. When we arrived on the day of the event, we were so delighted by the venue! Everything I had requested was in place, and Cheryl and our amazing server/bartender, Alex, immediately greeted us and made everyone feel welcome. The appetizers and meals were served efficiently and right on the timeline I had planned. The food was incredibly delicious with a pleasing presentation. Our guests had so much fun with the Wine Stations, and the whiskey lovers appreciated the variety of choices. Everyone raved about how much they enjoyed the food, drink and ambiance. Best of all, I was able to relax and enjoy our guests since all the work was done by Andrew, Cheryl, Alex and the kitchen staff. The cost was very reasonable, especially so close to Chicago. Highly recommended!“

“We ordered from here and were not disappointed! The food tastes fresh, clean and seasoned perfectly. After eating you feel energized instead of feeling bloated from greasy, heavy food. The quality is so good. We got a kid’s grilled cheese and our child loved it and the added fruit and fresh juice. The avocado toast was divine. The mushroom soup was super fresh and creamy; you can actually taste what mushrooms are in it instead of slop. Highly recommend to anyone wanting to have a quality healthy meal but need something quick and energizing for themselves or their family.“

“The decor is STUNNING and there are 2 tables large enough for big groups. I really loved the ambiance and decor. The menu had a lot of reasonably priced options for food as well. 4 stars because one of our old fashioneds was served with a vibrant red cherry that had a pit in it. So it wasn’t the usual luxardo cherry that I am used to having.
I also love that there is an overwalk that connects you to Santo Cielo.“

Food quality was terrific. Huge portions so nearly everyone brought home a to-go bag. And the new space feels cozy and fresh. Special shout out to the gal at the front desk when I asked if they had a coat check for my long coat she had said no not yet but I'll be happy to help and she swiftly took it someplace so that I didn't have to have it behind my chair; And then in everyone's way on the floor. We will be back!“
