We had a lunch reservation, but it wasn’t very busy at the time, which made for a relaxed and enjoyable visit. Our server, Jorge, was excellent—very friendly and helpful, and he made some great recommendations. I ordered the protein salad, and it was amazing. The portions are very generous, and the prices are reasonable for the quality and size of the meals. One thing to note is that the restrooms are located on the second floor in the hotel area, but overall it didn’t take away from the experience. I’d definitely recommend this place and would come back again."

The hostess was so kind and seated me while I waited for my guest to arrive. The food was amazing (the BISCUITS OMG!!!), the atmosphere was great, and my server Lexi was the best! I was even given gelato as a complimentary birthday treat! Everything about this place was clean and beautiful including the bathroom. I've passed by this restaurant many times and admired how beautiful it looked but never went in. Now I see that I've been missing out these 9 years living in Chicago. Better late than never! I'll definitely be adding this place to my eating out rotation."

The green circle rotisserie chicken was good, not great. I'll give them credit - the chicken was juicy and not dry. Truffle mashed potatoes and and the veggies were solid, but the carrots weren't that tender. Drinks were solid. Got the French alexander and the espresso martini. Roanoke is right behind my work. Overall, this place is much better than I expected."
