I recently had an unforgettable breakfast at 312 Chicago. We started with a beautiful plate of fresh fruit, each bite perfectly ripe and bursting with flavor. The whipped ricotta was a standout – creamy, airy, and delicately sweet, pairing wonderfully with the fruit. The presentation was elegant, and the service was impeccable, making the whole experience feel special. Whether you're looking for a light and refreshing start to your day or simply craving something delicious and simple, this spot is a must-visit. Highly recommended!

This was our second pre-theater meal and it did not disappoint. Beautiful contemporary decor. Service was very attentive, but not overbearing. Food was excellent! Our table of four shared the Burrata appetizer with tomatoes and capers - delicious! Hubs and I shared the Branzino (2 fillets total? and the tagliatelle Bolognese made with short rib ragu. Both were full of flavor and seasoned perfectly. Book your pre-theater meal now before word gets out and it's crazy busy. It's waaaaayyy better than some of the other more well-known theater restaurants.

Came here to have lunch and catch up on life with a friend. I ordered the Solstice to drink. Really nice non alcoholic drink to have. I order the salmon and my friend ordered the burger. The salmon dish was very flavorful and tasty. My friend said her burger was cooked to how she liked it and the fries were cooked well and had a good flavor. I forgot to write down our servers name, but she was delightful. She took great care of us and gave great suggestions.

Probably the best service I've ever received at a restaurant. Server was amazing, super attentive and friendly, and brought us malort to try since we were both new to Chicago. Will be going back :)

312 Chicago never disappoints me. The food is always excellent, and the service is exceptional at all levels. I get the fritto misto every time because they always leave me wanting more. The cheese and banana peppers give a salty, acidic taste that sets it apart from other calamari dishes. 312 Chicago offer new specials that make each experience new and interesting, all the while maintaining a standard menu of magnificent entrées that guarantee enjoyment all around. A definite “Must” in Chicago dining!

Repeat customers, 312 Chicago is our favorite evening out before a show restaurant. It never disappoints us. Innovative Italian menu, not relying on the usual Italian options. Service last night was outstanding, wine was perfectly paired, food was delicious. We've been going here for years and look forward to many more years into the future.

312 Chicago was amazing! From being seated promptly and welcomed by our waitstaff to the ambience, drinks and food. Ashley, our waitress, was friendly and ready to serve whenever we were ready. The restaurant is right next door to the Cadillac Palace Theater, which makes it perfect for a pre-dinner meal. It is a bit pricey, but the food and drinks are delicious.

Beautiful dining room, attentive service, delicious food! I would have liked a small pasta side to accompany my roasted chicken, but the menu doesn't offer one. Overall, a great experience.

Another amazing experience at 312! The lobster pasta was divine, cocktails and appetizers great as always. We had two real nice desserts , beignets and chocolate cake, with the former scoring very high marks !

We thoroughly enjoyed our experience at 312 Chicago. Incredible ambiance upstairs and downstairs. The pasta, the lobster, the branzino, wow! The food and beverages were outstanding, but the service was nothing short of amazing. We were in Chicago for a week-long convention. Carrie took excellent care of our party. She was quite attentive and went the extra mile to ensure everything was perfect. It really made an impression on the entire group.
We love this place. I come here whenever I'm in the city. Great Italian food. Get the bread balls and red sauce appetizer. Very good. But we also love the VIBE. Comfortable plush seating. A place where even when full, you can hear each other. A great bar. Bravo to these folks. They took great care of our party who was in town for a convention, even when it got too large.

Ashley was great! Our overall experience was very nice. Delicious food in very comfortable handsome setting. Generous portions. Only wish - smaller dinner salads. I would order a smaller Caesar and no one else wanted one. While we can take home the other items, leftover salad is a waste. We will be back! Thanks much, Ed Miller

The food was outstanding, service was timely and very courteous, and the ambience was welcoming. The tables have a nice amount of room around them, so the noise level was low making it easy to converse and hear one another. Overall, a very pleasant experience. I will definitely go back there when I am in Chicago again!
It's located right in the theater district, which makes it convenient. They also bent over backwards to help us celebrate our anniversary: a specially printed menu, glasses of champaign, and much attention to out every need. It was very special.

312 Chicago offers a satisfying experience, especially for pre-theater folks. However, we find it more enjoyable when it's not quite as busy in the theater district. Consistently good food. And great service by our waiter, Robert.
