Suggestions for Dining and Drinking near River North, Chicago

Ashley R. • May 24, 2019All around excellent experience. Super seductive downstairs vibe, love the bench seating, leisurely service (come here to relax not to speed dine) and OMG dry aged Rib Eye. Fun corkage policy.

Hayley C. • March 13, 2022The Brussels sprouts were amazing! Good food and service, with a cozy ambiance.

Tunisia C. • May 17, 2019Cucumber Loco similar to a margarita. Very tasty. The Barry White has the flavor profile of a Paloma. Green Tomato Rings take on fried green tomatoes very good. Ricotta gnocchi this is delicious.

Lou E. • July 22, 2016Whisky. If you like it you must go in and try s new one. The hand crafted old fashion is outstanding!!!!!

Ruby A. • 2 weeks agoThe chicken thighs with black beans and labneh was spectacular. They have a good orange wine by the glass too!

Jon B. • September 10, 2022Very tasty red that was going through some new-restaurant growing pains. I thought my Moroccan-French lamb dish was tasty, and the beef Wellington looked very good too, as did the French Onion soup.

Allison K. • January 3, 2015Freshly squeezed juice with a shot of alcohol is a must! Fries are amazing and deviled eggs are great apps!

TheOutOfTowner • December 23, 2019The pesto chicken sandwich, and the Sergio special, with Hannah’s chips and maybe a soup or the cookie to go. Good vegan and vegetarian options too. The perfect quick, light lunch option.

Greg W. • October 14, 2016Big beef sandwich with sweet peppers + cheese fries

David • February 14, 2020Cool casual spot in river north with awesome (and huge) Roman style pizza.

Chicago magazine • April 16, 2012Wet-aged steaks still rank among the best in town. On weekends, latch onto first-rate prime rib. The wine list is forgettable, but the well-priced martinis are excellent.

Andy T. • January 1, 2015Definitely get the Chaufau (pork fried rice) for entree. One of the best fried rice I ever had.

Debra S. • May 20, 2013Bone In Ribeye...AMAZING! Sit on the patio if available, beautiful view!

Jacqueline L. • June 29, 2016If you're not sure what to order, go with small plates. Two people can share 4 small plates and leave satisfied. Try the Mezcal Paloma, Yum!

Catherine P. • February 27, 2015The old-fashioned buttermilk doughnut is really good! Additionally, try the chocolate doughnut!
