Food here was very good. I had a salad which was large enough to share with at least 2 other people. My husband had the double burger sandwich which he really liked. The only challenge is that if you are coming from the suburbs you need to leave plenty of time to find parking. We were successful in doing so, about 4 blocks away. Fortunately a love evening for a walk. We plan to return.

I never take the time to leave a review but arranged a work dinner here and was blown away. All the dishes were great but the group agreed the ribeye was the star of the show. Service was excellent.

I came with two friends, and this was the best meal any of us had had in a long, long time. The service was superb, our waiter was gracious, attentive and friendly, and every course was fantastic. Especially superb were the shrimp scampi and filet mignon.

I brought my wife here for her birthday. Years ago, we first met here as friends, so it felt special to come back to the place where our story in Chicago began. We’ll definitely be back.

Service was fantastic. The ambiance is nice, but a little loud. We luckily were tucked into a corner seat that helped with the noise. The food was really excellent too. Enjoyed the crunchy falafel and loved the pistachio ravioli.

    Always pleased with the food. Make sure to order a rustic pizza as an appetizer for your table. Service was great as usual. It’s always a bit loud in there so it’s not the best spot for a date night. Never disappointed when I dine at Luxbar
