The cocktails here are some of the best in Chicago. They are made with attention and detail, and are beautifully balanced and delicious. The Mahi tacos were delicious, and the sweet potato fries were better than I’ve ever had. My partner and I were wonderfully taken care of by our server and the hosts up front. We love it here, and return whenever we can!

We weren’t hungry enough to eat a big meal but still received the same impeccable service. We had AMAZING oysters to start, gumbo and bisque that sang and lovely salads. Their signature raspberry pie for dessert was a winner. Delightful experience.

This was a lovely experience. We went for the brunch buffet which was a good price point. Everything tasted spectacular. The sushi was exceptional quality; no fishy smell or taste. Great selection of food and the ambience was wonderful. Will be returning.

What a wonderful Christmas Eve dinner! The food was excellent and the service impeccable! Vinnie, our server, was so friendly and gave us great service. Also, every staff member that we passed entering and exiting greeted us! That small detail just enhanced our dining experience.
