    Amazing food and service. However, they weren’t sensitive and didn’t ask about food allergies. I am gluten free and was surprised that the Tofu on the stir-fry was fried. The waiter didn’t know what the tofu was coated/battered in. I definitely felt sick afterwards but thankfully it is not a serious allergy.

    Adalina is a beautiful, classy-looking restaurant. Our server Michael was exceptional, very attentive and helpful. The food was excellent. The octopus was cooked perfectly, lightly charred and very tender. The almond ricotta cake was absolutely delicious. We loved our dinner here!

    My experience at NoMi was exceptional! From the very pleasant hostess to my extremely kind and attentive waiter. The view is spectacular and my holiday meal was scrumptious! I dined alone and never felt hurried or rushed. I had the sea bass for my entree and it was delicious! My only suggestion would be considering a spirit free pairing. They offer a wine pairing to enhance your meal but as someone who does not drink alcohol, this is something I’d enjoy and appreciate.

    We came here for Christmas Eve dinner. It was delightful. The food and cocktails were excellent, the service could not have been better and the atmosphere was festive but not noisy. This was our second Christmas Eve here and it won’t be our last. The crowd is older but I’m older so we fit right in!

    Gibson's is one of my favorite restaurants of all times. We live in San Antonio but make it a point to make reservations when in Chicago, Because of the holidays, I scheduled reservations 3 months in advance. Service was superb, as always. I ordered the W.R.'s Chicago Cut and was very disappointed. The steak was cold and did not appear anywhere close to 22 oz. My son ordered a 7 oz Filet Mignon, and he was disappointed as it was very dry and overcooked. I know I could have said something at the table, but I didn't want to ruin the moment as we were having such a great time being together. The service was outstanding, and hope that next time it will be the same Gibson's experience.
