“ Thank you to Anthony the GM and Diana at the hostess desk for helping me get in my table because I was a mess. TSA overwhelmed me. You both were so kind! I knew it was gonna be OK when my beautiful amazing waitress Destiny showed up with above and beyond service! Truly, this is somewhere I hit every time I'm at O'Hare and she is truly the best bartender/server human being ever ”
“ As far as airport restaurants go, this place is great. They make their own Bloody Mary's, they don't use a mix. They are very good!!! They also make their own margarita mix, those are great too!! Their portions are huge!! Their salads are fresh, lots of toppings and huge. Definitely one of the better airport restaurants that I have been to. Friendly staff as well. ”
“ One of my favorite restaurants in River North. Stylish contemporary vibes with amazing food and great service. I have been coming here for years. Some of my personal favorites are the bang bang cauliflower, the chicken nachos and the egg rolls. I love the veggie burger. Tastes exactly like a high end Big Mac. One of my absolute favorites it's the pistachio Caesar. I also love the chicken French dip! The vibe here is great for a date night, meeting or just hang out at the bar with a lively atmosphere. Just a solid overall experience that fires on all cylinders. Def worth a try ”
“ Bar meet airport. Airport meet bar. Now that we're not strangers anymore I can come aboard! Bartender was efficient and nice. Makes a good bloody Maria!! Chill as you can be in O'Hara. But had a good playlist going!! If you need a spot to chill waiting for a flight and you need an adult beverage! Come on over here and grab a chair. ”
