Booth One

Nice restaurant, expensive as many hotel-adjacent spots below Fullerton can be. Not the fastest service and it didn't seem busy, but we didn't mind the wait because the ambiance was nice. Mom loved it!

Booth One provides a quiet, comfortable atmosphere with excellent food and terrific service. We had the beef Wellington and it was done to perfection.

Food was great
Lynn-server great
Disco lights on before close, awesome!
Get the chocolate cake

The restaurant was full but quiet enough to have a good conversation. Great for business meetings or anytime you actually want to hear what the other people are saying.
Food and service were spot on. Drinks were well prepared.

We went to check it out at dinnertime. Our waiter was very nice and fast. It was nice that they had a Burt Reynolds cocktail. It was bourbon-based. The chicken liver amuse bouche could've been skipped, neither of us enjoyed it. Our entrees were both filling, I got the lobster louie salad. My friend got the chicken frites.

Our party of 4 had Dover Sole as our entrees. The fish was perfectly done and served with brown butter on the side. We also had a vegetable side dish of corn and chanterelles which was excellent.
Service was excellent.

Exceptional in every way ! Everything was perfect
From the food to the service 10+

Booth One made our anniversary memorable. We were greeted with Happy Anniversary and given extras from a proseco toast to a cheesecake dessert.

This was a fun energetic place located inside of the Ambassador Hotel. Food and drinks are top notch. Can't wait to go back.

A wonderful makeover from the previous Pump Room. Extremely imaginative menu well executed and first rate service.

Dover sole was fantastic service great wine selection superb

The food is always great here and it is not very noisy so you can easily engage in a conversation. Our server, Andrew, was outstanding. He knows the food well and can pair wines. He was attentive in a perfect sense.

Did not meet expectations. Food and ambiance were both underwhelming.

Excellent service and food. A very pleasant experience.

Outstanding first visit!
Made reservations on- line after a quick look for romantic fine dining, mission accomplished.
The place was amazing from the first contact inside the front door(was not sure where we were going)
To the hostess that seated us(we were early) and it was not a problem. Then our server arrived , very pleasant and answered all questions. Made wonderful recommendations for food and drink.
This was a 27th anniversary night out for dinner and everything was perfect.
We will be back again!
Well done!

First greeted with a warm welcome and a happy birthday to my dear friend. Atmosphere beautiful, staff amazing and on top of everything. Food was delicious. Great night. I would most definitely recommend this restaurant with awesome staff and great history. Thank you!!!

Very good food. Excellent service I think for s Diet Coke —-$4 is unfair

The place is greate, food is excellent, service and attention is also great but they mixed up the orders and had to apologize averytime they came to the table.

Service, food, atmosphere, and wine exceeded our expectations.

Great, great food and service. Everything was impeccable. Celebrated mom’s bday and they catered to her beautifully. Highly recommend! Desserts are the best I’ve had! Appetizers and entrees divine! Wonderful place to celebrate anything, and good for kids.

Historic, elegant space for a swanky fine dining experience. The room is really gorgeous, and brings back happy memories of dining here over the years. While I wouldn't call it adventurous, our dinner was excellent. The fois gras was to die for, my husband loved his Beef Wellington, and I loved my halibut with morel mushroom sauce. The caesar was a little bland. Service was friendly and terrific. The only downside was the 70's disco music that played the entire night. Fun in small doses, but the beautiful space deserves better. Fairly pricey. Best for a special occasion.

Awesome place a lowkey rpm steak. Vibe was great food was even better!!!

The twin burgers were amazing.

Great meal, great service and amazing ambience. A throwback to what restaurants used to be and should be.

Portions were very generous. Food quality was good but, not as good as what I anticipated . Service was alright but could have been more attentive.

Booth One exceeded even our high expectations. Sommelier Seth was simply a find and a reason alone to go back - wine understanding and pairing with dinner was something we wouldn't have thought of but made the dinner - cannot compliment the whole staff, food quality (Beef Wellington - wow!) enough.

It was ok. A couple of the menu items description didn't really match what they served. Shirred eggs but they were poached eggs. Brioche toast but was really white toast on another dish

service and food were great--menu just right. quiet

Food was somewhat disappointing.
The beet salad was painfully spicy and their touted coconut cake was underwhelming.
Nice quiet atmosphere though.

Lovely evening. Great food and great wine recommendations. Great service.

I love the vibe in here. So good I went twice in a week.

We enjoyed the restaurant except for a few things. Is there a way to access the bar and Terrace without going up the front stairs? The hostess could not explain this clearly. The seating is very uncomfortable. We had drinks on the Terrace and the couches may be a designer's dream but they are horribly uncomfortable. The tables were loo large between the couches. The dinner table on the Terrace was too high for the chairs. Again, not good. This has to be dealt with and corrected. Finally, the wait staff/server were very slow in removing dinner plates. The main room is beautiful but after a while all of that beige is boring.

Terrible! Lettuce Entertain You restaurants are the best but this was the first that was awful. My risotto was tasteless and my husband’s seafood was tiny and looked like hospital food and cost $39. We sat by the window which was draped with a huge spider web. That should have been removed. We will not return

Truly outstanding !!! The ambience was perfect , the food was delicious and our server Cherise was just amazing! We were in from out of town and had a variety of recommendations from friends- we were so delighted we selected Booth One!

This was our first visit since Booth One opened. We LOVED Pump Room and were so glad that they kept the unique lighting in the main dining room; I just wish they didn't have the curtains drawn so that we couldn't see it! The food was great and the service was outstanding. Highly recommend. It is a Chicago gem.

Nice surprise to see what used to be the famous Pump Room reinvented. Still the same relaxing, elegant ambience as the Pump Room. Was there on Saturday and ordered from the weekend brunch menu. The Bellini was refreshing, and the Hobb's Smoked Salmon was not only delicious, but very filling to be one of the lighter selections on the menu. The staff was awesome, very attentive. And I still love seeing the walls of famous people that frequent the Pump Room.

I'm looking forward to going back for dinner.

Consistent, friendly service. Well prepared food. Good neighborhood dining spot!

This was our first visit to Booth One, though we had been to the Pump Room years ago. The decor was light and inviting, and we were happy to see some of the famous photographs presented differently. The menu had more wonderful things than we could try in one trip, but I'm glad I tried the scrambled eggs with truffles and crab - delicious! We will be back!

My girlfriend and I enjoyed a wonderful Sunday brunch. We were greeted by a friendly hostess and escorted to a lovely booth (with a picture of Frank Sinatra). Our server, Olivia, was fantastic and helped make recommendations that were delicious. I can't wait to go back, next time to enjoy dinner.

Excellent service. Not rushed. Very friendly, accommodating server, but not overly "gooshy". Excellent food. Wish they still had a small jazz band with small dance floor, like the Pump Room. Elegant dining. needs dress code on evening and weekends. Would make more posh and refined. Price reflects elegant, modern, refined dining; but patrons in shorts and jeans - did not. Jacket and/or tie should be required for at least Fri-Sun. And never short or jeans. Takes away from being upscale. All said and done, still excellent food and service.
