We really just came for the vibes and cocktails. While we didn’t eat much, we did have the truffle fries which were OUTSTANDING! The drinks were creative and well made. It’s pricey, but you just have to know that going in. This is not a cheap cocktail bar but it’s BEAUTIFUL inside and definitely worth experiencing.

    Our server, Rafael, took exceptional care of us. He anticipated every one of our needs without us having to ask for anything. Along with the manager Andrew, the two of them gave us one of the greatest dining experiences we’ve had. I couldn’t recommend this place more.

    Lunch for two in the West Loop. The black cod and wagyu gyoza were the standouts. The sashimi courses, tuna, yellowtail, Ora King salmon and snow crab, were fresh and well paced. Miguel took good care of us. We will be back.

    My SpelHouse 91 class decided to gather since I was in town. I chose this place because it's Black-owned, and we are from an HBCU. I was really impressed with the ratings, and we decided this would be our place whenever we gather. We hope to gather in December to celebrate one of our famous classmates who is a renowned writer. Genesis was a stellar server. She allowed us to enjoy each other, and we didn't feel rushed or like we had to leave the table at a certain time. She explained the menu and was willing, kind, and just amazing. I've been a meeting planner for 30 years, and service and hospitality mean everything, brother.
