    First time dining. We liked the ambiance outside and inside immediately. Staff was courteous and friendly. Seating was spacious and comfortable and music was not loud but upbeat. There were specials for Valentine's Day weekend. My wife much to my pleasant surprise chose the duck tacos as her appetizer which was great because then I got to sample one as well and we both agreed that they were a keeper. Sushi was up next which was fresh with just enough flavor and "zing". We love sushi. My wife judges each establishment by her main course of branzino and half-way through announced that we would indeed be returning. I had a veal chop which came "old school" Italian flatter than a pancake, bigger than the plate, and invisible under a sea of greens. I never knew veal could be that tender. Before I knew it, my plate was empty, but not before my wife could not stop sampling the salad topping. Desert was a pleasant surprise of apple beignets. We love anything that reminds us of dining in New Orleans. With a bottle of French wine, all was savory and satisfying. I would put this Eisenhower Park oasis on your dining list. Kudos to Niko and Zach, and Thank You!

    It was our first time at Union since the Palm Court was closed. I the ambiance was very nice and the porter house was top notch. Nick the GM was very welcoming. We will be back.

    From the moment we walked in and met Nico the manager, I knew this would be a great experience. He was personable and seated us at a great table in the wine room. Our server Bridgette was very friendly, knowledgeable, and on top of her game. Food was a “10” as the 4 of us had a mix of hot entrees and sushi, which was very fresh. Highly recommend this restaurant and we will definitely be eating there again soon.
