   This restaurant is by far the best one we went to in Chicago. We went for lunch and loved it so much we went back for dinner. Food was excellent, service was excellent and the music was good and not too loud which most other places were. Would definitely recommend and will definitely be back next time we are in the city.

   3 of 4 of our group ordered eggs Benedict and the eggs were hard on all 3 orders. Very disappointing- the meals were not good

   We chose River North because they advertised a small German menu for Oktober Fest. Food was passable. Not horrible but nothing to write home about. Staff was friendly.

   Great finish to a fantastic afternoon. We did the River Architecture Tour and finished with dinner at River Roast. Our reservations were at 6:30 but we got there 30 minutes early. We were told we could be seated immediately inside or we would wait 30-45 minutes and sit outside. We elected to wait and it was well worth it. The combination of the food and the ambiance was superb.

   Worst service. Totally ignored while we were there. Bloody Mary's were served not how the menu described them. No bacon no pickled vegetable skewer just a $15 sub par Bloody Mary. Food was edible. Flagged down who I assume was a manger to place a drink order. The drinks never came. I had to get up and go to the bar to get a servers attention to get our check. An epic disappointment all around. I'm sorry we stayed. The red flags were there from when walked in the door.

    This was the best experience we had while in Chicago. The food and drinks were amazing. The staff was lovely and celebrated my husbands birthday so well. The patio was gorgeous. Can’t wait to go again
