    Stuffed clams were the worst I’ve ever had. Pasta was decent at best.

    Good, not great. I was more impressed with the old school vibe of the restaurant. The ambience was great, the food on the other hand was underwhelming. It was Valentine’s Day weekend and we went early, so maybe the chef was getting warmed up. Not sure. But the bread was cold, the crab cakes were lukewarm. I ordered the Filet which was cooked wonderfully. However, my wife ordered the eggplant parm and it too wasn’t cooked thoroughly. All in all, we had a nice night but I expected more. It’s a Chicago classic and definitely worth a visit, but maybe temper your expectations.

    We got there early on Valentine's weekend to avoid drama. Was our first experience at G & G. We started with Calamari and Steak Tar Tar... Both perfect in texture and flavor. I shared Prime Rib with Wife and Daughter got Spaghetti Bolognese .. The pasta was Al Dente and meat sauce rich and amazing. Prime Rib was disappointing.. They Split cut for wife and myself ..There was over 50% fat in cuts... was difficult to navigate with knife anywhere and slice Ribeye.. We might have had that area that the fat strap ran and not mad as it happens with Beef. The only other anomaly was The Italian greeter/ manager went around and checked on tables around us.. Never came by and acknowledged our table.. it was 5:30 and not super busy..Nor did server ask us after entrees served come Back... I miss those days when spending $300 plus for two adults and one child.. Would create a value for establishment... I believe this was 7 out of 10... but small tweaks would make it 9 out of 10.
