Atwood

Didn’t even get to eat. The waiter never came back around to ask us what we wanted. We waited 25 minutes before we got up and went somewhere else to eat. Wasn’t a big selection, wouldn’t recommend.

Wonderful food and even better bar. Classic drinks are making a comeback here. Staff knows what they are doing and do it well.

Atwood is our pre-concert go to before a show at Chicago Theatre. Although promptly seated for our 6:15 reservation, yet our server didn’t come by to greet us or ask for our drink order until we flagged the host who was walking by, for help 10 minutes into our visit. The restaurant was busy but it wasn’t full. It was a frustrating start that also saw food delays for a simple burger and a spinach salad.

Our entrees were tasty when they finally did arrive yet we were unable to place a drink order for a bit because our server seemed to ignore us and/or disappear again. We finally ordered another round which arrived quickly this time. Our server’s service was definitely “off”, he never apologized and addressed any of the challenges. This was disappointing and it isn’t likely we’ll be back. Too bad for sure.

Perfect spot for before theater dinner. We had the squash and apple soup, shared a HUGE salad and focaccia bread. All were delicious. The service was prompt and attentive.

Atwood is a relatively unpretentious place for finer dining in State St with sophisticated decor and a great menu.

Good food, lively atmosphere. Very nice waiter- tho he didn’t show up right away to inquire or offer beverages. Valet parking was very expensive.

The service was outstanding

We originally had issues with our server but the manager stopped by and rectified the issue and removed one of the items that we had problems with from the bill. That’s good customer service!

Put us at high top table in bar. When I made reservation there was no indication it would be a high top table. I would have chosen another restaurant if I had known. It was very uncomfortable loud and busy with people going by. Also we were overly bothered by people repeatedly asking if they could clear our plates before we were ready. Food and service was great but we will not return unless we have at least 6 people to avoid the situation. I did ask to change but they then only had a table behind the bar by the cash station which was not very nice..

Great strategic location in downtown Chicago. Very nice dining room/atmosphere. The food and the service are always very good. Highly recommended.

Food was delicious and service was lovely. Very friendly environment and cute spot I never anticipated to have such great food!

Food was just OK. Restaurant week menu was fair. Soup was very good. Veggie burger was fair and cookies were good. Waitress was pleasant and efficient and brought birthday treats for dessert.

Good for pre theater

Efficient service, beautiful location, surprisingly not very loud. Enjoyed my crispy-skinned salmon and my companion loved the burger. The bar even crafted a custom mocktail at his request. Definitely try the spinach dip; it’s heavenly.

Menu not very extensive and food is not very good.

Overall, it was a nice pre-theater dinner!
I would do it again!

Always great service and food. Good for a business lunch with quick service and a varied menu.

Delicious food, lots of options, and such a bright sunny place to eat. Thank you for a nice experience.

Classic old hotel lounge venue with great food, drink and mixologists.

We dined on a Monday evening. First stop at the bar with a wonderful bartender who was nice to swap out a wine that I did not like for another and help my husband discover a new cocktail. We love the small and cozy space with nice seating with views of State and Washington streets from large windows. Great Chicago location. I have to eat strictly gluten free and have always had a lovely meal with Atwood. The spinach artichoke dip came with cucumber slices for me and grilled sourdough for my husband and was awesome. I am a burrata cheese fan, but did not enjoy the mortadello(sp?) that came with it (balony!). The salmon and steak were perfect and the creme brulee was great. The service by Eric was stellar. We will, of course, be back.

Lighting like the doctors office in there. Ambiance zero.

Food is always delicious - Nice size portions and Service is always very accommodating... It is my go-to favorite in the loop.

Birthday lunch for my wife at one of her favorite places

We have chosen Atwood as our destination pre-theater restaurant. The lunch menu suits all in our party. Rocky, our host, immediately greeted us with a bright smile and noted that we were seeing Mean Girls from the reservation. He was exceedingly gracious to move us to another table that we felt was more comfortable. The BLT sandwich with the batter fried tomato received rave reviews. I had the mussels with a creamy broth that was so savory. We shared a delightful spinach and pear salad. Juan, our server accommodated our request to split an entree order and made sure to brew us a fresh pot of hot coffee at the end of our meal. Atwood has a premier location and great food. I highly recommend it.

Food was beautifully prepared but all of it was very sweet. Perhaps it was the combination we chose.
Will def go to Atwood again. Wait staff was spectacular. Thank you

Beautiful building Friendly staff. Delicious pork schnitzel and apple crumble

The modern architecture was pleasing to the eye. Service was great and I would definitely come back!

The restaurant is clean, sleek, and comfortable. The server was very friendly and attentive. The dishes were well prepared and delicious. Windows are large and great for watching the City. I would definitely go back.

Parisian style diner, great interior design, the food and service excellent. Great location for people watching. Will definitely go there again both for breakfast and lunch.

It was a nice experience with good food and good service.

Beautiful ambience and wonderful food. A very special place indeed.

We went to dinner after seeing a movie at the Siskel and really enjoyed our meal at Atwood. The restaurant is casually cool with floor to ceiling windows for good people watching. Our waiter was excellent-very personable and helpful but not around too much. The chicken salad quesadilla were light and tasty plus the fried chicken sandwich was delicious—perfect for after the movie—a fun evening!

I had never been there before. Brought my 19 year old granddaughter.
We loved the atmosphere... the fact that you could people watch out the large windows.Very nice.
Waiter was good no complaints. Only downside was the chopped salad I ordered was huge and way too much green stuff and not enough variety in the ingredients... it was good... just way to large..I am a foodie and a great cook... my advice ... make the salad smaller ...less green and more color in the ingredients.
Anyhow the granddaughter loved the place... and I loved the iron fretwork I could see near the elevators.
I was born and grew up in the city and rarely get to Chicago...so was fun to go to a new place. Cute spot.

No real complaints. Enjoyed our visit.

Atwood was just ok. Nothing special, but it was easy to get to the theater on time from there.

Great breakfast place!

The food was very good and nice Christmas Day meal.

Lost our Open Table reservation, but still seated us after we showed them the email verification.

Great location for before and after shows. Live music was a plus. Food and service was mediocre.

Food was completely unmemorable, but ambience was beautiful and classy!
