    The ambiance was great. It’s a wonderful place for family and friends to gather. The Greek Chicken and Chicken Vesuvio were too salty. The presentation was not good either. The Chicken Vesuvio looked as though it was just dropped on the plate. Our waiter was was not that talkative or helpful. He wasn’t around. We had stretch our neck and head to get his attention. This was for Saturday 5:30 3 party reservation.

    I put in my reservation that we were celebrating the wedding of my niece. They had just eloped that day in the city. I also called and asked if there was a small cake or dessert that we could have to acknowledge their special day. I was told the only thing they had was whatever dessert the chef made that day for bdays, etc. I did ask to have that brought out. Very disappointed that we were sat in the bar and no one acknowledged their celebration. No dessert was ever brought out. No congratulations. I would think two attempts at bringing it to the staff’s attention should be enough for any restaurant to be on top of it. Missed opportunity and making their day just a little more special. Disappointed

    Had a great experience, food was spectacular, calamari, gnocchi, prime rib, broccolini, and onion rings. No complaints. Nice, old school. Classy joint.

    A Chicago classic. Unmatched. Do not miss it if you have never been. Run don’t walk.

    Not sure how the rating for G&G is the same as restaurants like Prime & Provisions. The food was fair, service was good but not excellent. All in all, an average steakhouse.

    The food is fantastic! Don’t hesitate in booking this place. Truffle pasta was great, ribeye was so juicy. Tiramisu was very good.
