Best Open Kitchen Restaurants in West Loop

Another excellent evening at Cira. Attentive service, creative food and lovely details helped us celebrate a special birthday. Love everything about dining at Cira.

Had a lovely catch up with a very good friend over delicious food. Had the artichoke, the lamb, and the oxtail and pesto pastas. Everything was wonderful.

Amazing from start to finish! Highly recommend.

I booked a Valentine’s reservation over a month in advance, it was easy to book. Unfortunately it snowed moderately the day of the reservation and since I was driving from Indiana. It took a LOT longer to get there than expected. I called Fioretta, they said it was okay, that they would be able to make it work. Mind you, I got there an hour late. They still honored my reservation. The service was great and the food came out promptly. Meatballs lacked seasoning, shrimp scampi was 100/10. Crab bisque and burrata with peppers were both mid. 24oz ribeye was looked perfectly however it was too salty. They even brought extra seasoning that they used on the ribeye so we can add as we please. But there was no need as the salt overpowered everything. The marscapone whipped potatoes were also 100/10. Olive oil cake with gelato was 100/10, my server recommended it and recommended a bite with a little gelato and a piece of the cake, it was delicious. Tiramisu was mid. The cocktails all had good flavors but they lacked layers. They were for the most part all 1 note. So overall, get the shrimp scampi and the whipped potatoes forsure. I also think they can bring the $$$$$ down a notch- it doesnt match the mid quality of the food.

The food was incredibly good and my guests were SO impressed with the dishes for being so fresh and tasty! The beer selection is great too along with wine choices. The chef was friendly when we called him over to our table and they decorated the birthday desert with a sparkler. Lastly, the FLAN was the BEST we've ever enjoyed!
