Loved the size of this restaurant. It was cozy, warm, well-lit, and comfortable. Staff was friendly and helpful. I had the fish special that was fantastic. I generally love salmon over any white fish, but the sea bass was amazing. I would have liked dinner to be served with some veggies. More

Kumiko is so special that I went back after my first time only six days later. Every detail is thoughtful and the service is incredible without being cliche or over the top. I love the "spiritfree" menu with TEN non-alcoholic beverages on it; this was the impetus for bringing my friend who doesn't drink and they were so happy! The drinks and food have so many flavors without being complicated or over the top. My friend and I were celebrating our businesses's anniversary and they gave us each cards all signed by the staff! I will keep it forever! Also definitely worth noting is that the co-owner/mixologist Julia and Chef de Cuisine Mariya are women of color. In such an extremely white male dominated field, this is so encouraging and worthy of support. Kumiko will continue to be a go-to spot for me for special celebrations. More

This place is freaking awesome. From Miami and try and get to Girl & Goat and Little Goat every time I'm in Chicago which is frequently. The food is not only amazing, it is truly unique. This is an absolute must-go for Breakfast or Brunch More

Our dining experience at the Bellemore was one of the best in my life. The food transported me, the care the server exhibited was exceptional. The sunchokes were outstanding and I felt transported eating them because it felt as if I could taste the care that someone took to make the dish so perfectly, their creativity and their diligence. We also loved the chicken, and the desert. Everything else was excellent as well, but I don't think I will ever forget the sunchokes. More

Had a wonderful dinner at Proxi. Seating at the high counter was comfortable -- near the bar, so lots of things going on, but not too loud to make conversation difficult. All of the food we tasted was really excellent -- thoughtful in ideation and careful in execution. Small notes (togarashi with the grilled mushrooms + yuba noodle salad, the perfect measure of smoke with the pumpkin, etc.) were done really well. Clearly this is a kitchen that pays attention to detail. The desserts we tried were especially wonderful (chocolate custard + the flan with pineapple); we had really high expectations, given what we had read about pastry chef Sarah Mispagel, and she far exceeded them. Service was also excellent, from the moment we walked in until the minute we left. More

the service will improve. the staff is new and they just need a little more time. the food and place are outstanding. Riccardo's Trattoria on Clark has been my favorite Italian restaurant for a long time. Had to try its brand-new location. Service was a little slow, which gave us plenty of visiting time. The waiter and kitchen staff are new and waiter was very accommodating. All of that will improve quickly, I am sure. Beautiful space. Same delicious, high quality food and friendly atmosphere. More

ambiance is beautiful, you would think you're walking into a restaurant with $60+ main dishes, yet much cheaper meals than that. service is create, bars upstairs had fun energy. Altogether, an amazing restaurant. More

Such a beautiful space! We enjoyed our meal and appreciated the attentiveness of our waitress and servers. Everyone was so kind! The cocktail I got was delicious. We got a small plate, a few medium plates and a pasta. My friend is a vegetarian and there were great options for her and they were able to make some changes to some dishes as well which was really nice. Definitely get the brown butter hummus! More

Fulton Market Kitchen was absolutely amazing. My boss and I went in on a Monday night and our server was so great to us and made amazing recommendations. Each bite was absolutely phenomenal. I wanted to get the steak, but since we arrived late, they were all sold out, so I ended up getting the milanese, which was so delicious, but the cut was the size of my head! So I could only eat half, but it made great leftovers. My boss got the walleye and she was in love with it. We split the prusciutto and gruyere toast, which was out of this world. For dessert, we enjoyed the milk and honey. It was so light and like a dessert I've never experience. Would definitely recommend if you're looking for something fun, new, and trendy!! More

I took my fiance to Bar Takito for brunch Sunday as a surprise for Birthday and she loved it. My fiance is a vegetarian and she had no problem finding delicious vegetarian dishes that were also beautiful to just look at. The ambiance was great. The music awesome and the staff were very customer friendly. It was a hit to her and I enjoyed it myself. I'll definitely be recommending Bar Takito to anyone looking for an awesome experience of the senses and palette. More

Great customer service and ambiance. Will definitely visit again. More
OpenTable Diner -
This is an excellent place to have a nice meal. The music is tasteful and so is the ambiance. The food is plentiful - 8 courses is plenty for any party over 3 and each round of food is more tasty than the next. The hosts care about each guest and the service is invested in your meal. I will be here again soon. A beautiful piece of authenticity in an otherwise hyper-competitive area. More

The staff as soon as we entered and throughout the brunch. We were some of the first people to arrive but since the food was near the door and uncovered it was cold. Delicious but cold. Staff didn’t know what was in the deserts but everything had a great presentation. The circle tables did not fit three people, plates, mimosas and comfortably. The ambiance was great, good music, bathrooms needed updating. Overall small things to consider. Would definitely recommend! Love the bottomless mimosas! More

We were walking from Willis Tower to the United Center and stopped here for a quick lunch. The waitress was attentive and kind. The food was spectacular. We had the artichoke dip, the flatbread, and the shrimp tacos. Everything was flavorful. The portions were excellent. Definitely recommend for a quick lunch More

While once primarily an industrial district lined with warehouses, the Chicago West Loop has experienced a major transformation in recent years. Home to "Restaurant Row" and easily accessible using public transit, this neighborhood is now one of the trendiest (and tastiest) neighborhoods in Chicago. You can experience a variety of dining experiences along "Restaurant Row" from a burger and beer at a pub or upscale diner to a number of fine dining options. This stretch also includes sushi, tapas, sports bars, coffee shops and cocktail lounges. You really can have it all here. For dessert, you can always stop by a French or Greek bakery to pick up a fresh pastry, or head to one of the local donut shops.
