OpenTable Diner -
Went on a Sunday so slow night - pretzel bread dip was excellent, house chop salad was weird -dates AND olives that look exactly the same, and why tortilla strips? - the mozzarella app was good but all the service people referred to it by a different name than was on the menu which created odd interactions. The service was good overall as would be expected on a slow night and the space is very large with great views. Didn’t do bowling or bocce but could see how those would be fun here. More

We're from Wisconsin and drove to Chicago for the evening. Found Southern Cut online and their menu drew us in. Went in to have dinner for our anniversary. I had the "Mac Daddy". It was mouth watering. Great portions. Fast service. Exceptional staff. It turns out that they also serve breakfast. We went back for round two and were not disappointing. The Brisket is a must try. Very pleased with our visit. Great prices!!! More

I made reservations for my husband and I for our anniversary dinner. There was no wait time. We were seated upstairs and it was pretty dated with a low hanging ceiling it looked like a basement, but it was a window seat so that’s a plus. The salsa that was served was very good fresh and authentic chips were ok. Drinks were good I had a house Margarita. Our server didn’t have much knowledge of the appetizers and didn’t give us silverware service was a little lacking. My husband ordered the cheese filled jumbo shrimp wrapped in bacon because it was recommended they were ok. The real winner was my carne asada it was so perfect I was bummed authentic beans were not on the menu only frijoles charros and black beans, but I asked the server and she did say it was available. I’m glad they did have them after all because that was the best carne asada I’ve ever had my plate was pure perfection. My husband had the mole enchiladas which he really enjoyed, but one taste of my carne asada and he was hooked. I will definitely return for the carne asada and that house salsa. More

I only had soup and salad but both were terrific . The salad was well-balanced with just the right amount of balsamic vinaigrette and did not overpower the green with too much Parm. The soup was a chicken vegetable and wonderful with a definite Italian flare. It was not too salty. The wait staff was attentive but discrete. Overall a real find for the reasonable prices. More

This was a wonderful treat for me. I have eaten at The Drake Brothers Restaurant for years. I have also eaten at The Cape Room. I was delighted to see The Cape Cod had been renovated. I know the Manager she knew my needs. She immediately had my hot water with lemon ready. I was so grateful she was there. She checked to make sure my service was top notch. I took pictures. The food looked good and tasted good. I am on Weight Watchers so next time I will track points. I did a lot of walking to compensate for the apple crepe. I loved having my Steel Cut Oatmeal. The mixed berries were beautiful. The manager wants me to come back soon. My usual habit is to treat myself to The Drake Experience once a month. I love The Drake. I enjoyed everything about it. I enjoyed seeing Chanel’s window. I will be back for another “Real Chicago” treat. More

Discover Gold Coast
Located north of the Chicago River along the shores of Lake Michigan, the neighborhoods of Streeterville and the Gold Coast developed as affluent areas in the wake of the Chicago Fire in the late 19th century. Today, these neighborhoods boast family entertainment centers, fine museums and a variety of restaurants for everyone to enjoy. Families can delight in the fun and festivities along the Navy Pier with burgers, fish and fresh baked goods for nourishment. Going inland in Streeterville, the dining gets a bit more upscale with Chicago deep dish pizzerias and Polish sausage on every corner. Heading north to the Gold Coast will get you fine dining and international food territory. Tender steaks, tapas bars and French cuisine are among the hidden gems.
