Best Restaurants with a Happy Hour in Downtown / Loop

We dined here on a Friday night prior to seeing a show at a nearby theatre with our tween/teen children. Everyone loved this place! The service was attentive and friendly, food recommendations were good, and the food was excellent. The prices are a bit high for the portion sizes, but it is in a busy area of the city so would be difficult to find the same quality for less. Would definitely return here again, and recommend this establishment to others!

Delicious food and cocktails, wonderful ambience., and speedy service. Dined here before a show at the Cadillac Theatre. I also noticed that they have beautiful rooms upstairs for private dining

From the moment Carolina greeted us, we felt like family. She was so friendly. She offered us plenty of suggestions and time to enjoy our meal. The food was outstanding!! We are visiting, but we hope to have the opportunity to come back!

My husband and I had dinner here for the first time. We were a little late for our reservation, I had called ahead to let them know and it wasn’t an issue they still held out table. My first impression was WOW beautiful! We were seated right away. We started with the garlic bread fondue and my husband had the bootlegger and I had the prohibition both drinks were delicious (since I’m competitive mine was better-haha) We each had the T-bone steak and shared the glazed carrots and cheese potatoes. The sides were very good. Now on to the steak - AMAZING!! The steaks were cooked perfectly! So delicious and it’s a big steak (go hungry). I could go on but try it for yourself. You won’t be disappointed. I know the restaurant advertises as sports bar so having TVs with sports games on was no surprise. My thought was the TVs would be at the bar not around the restaurant. That was my only disappointment. So many TVs around the walls really took away from the beauty of the old Chicago photos of the theater district, the beautiful “leather” walls - the architecture of the restaurant gives you a glimpse into the past. The TVs just take away from the perfect atmosphere. We absolutely loved this restaurant!! We will be back again!

Delicious food, great service and yummy drinks! It’s in a beautiful old building and had a bustling and lively atmosphere. Service was helpful and friendly. We stayed the Staypineapple Hotel so we ate a couple times at the Atwood and every meal was delicious I had the grilled cheese and the savory waffle which exceeded my expectations. The Brussels sprouts and cauliflower were seasoned and grilled perfectly.
