Service was very bad. Head waiter - the only waiter - was curt and lacked courtesy with us. He did not bother to ask if we wanted wine with our dinner; we had to call him and asked for it. Food was tasteless. Three out of the four dishes ordered were bland and the duck breast was dried and overcooked. I ordered Beef bourgignone and it had neither onions or mushrooms., two essential ingredients of this classic French dish, It was served with the fresh thyme that was cooked with but the thyme stems were not removed before serving the dish making it very bothersome to eat the neat and sauce, My fiancee and I were celebrating our birthdays and they brought a Creme Brûlée for the two of us with two makeshift birthday candles. The amount served was barely enough for one. He brought the bill without asking if we wanted anything else like coffee , tea . etc. We told him about the dessert and his flippant comment was: Are you hungry? The bad service and the terrible and dissaponting cuisine makes this restaurant excessively overpriced. We will never go back and will not recommend it to anyone, friend or foe.

Fabulous evening. We just had heavy appetizers and wine, but everything was very good and our server was excellent. It was our first time there, and we learned they have a wine cave downstairs. So we went to the cave for after dinner drinks and desserts. What a find. Very cozy. The DJ was playing some great music suitable for dancing and that's exactly what we did.

When we first checked in, the receptionist sent us upstairs. When I said something, he said that was where our reservation was. Upstairs was the event's room and not where. we were supposed to be. When we came down and told him that it was a mistake, he said they had the same last name as mine. That was not true since someone after us came for the private party and asked for a different last name. Although we had a 6:45 reservation, I was told the only table available was near the front window next to the door. ( By now it was 7 pm unless we wanted to wait another 1/2 hour ) We had no choice since the restaurant was filled so every time someone came in, there was a breeze from outside). The table was next to a party of 16 so the noise level and the music made it very difficult to carry on a conversation. My dinner arrived luke warm ( and at that price point),,,our server was very officious and not engaging at all. He didn't offer any adjustment or apology and could easily taken off the dessert as a goodwill gesture. (Between the drinks and wine, appetizer and entree, we had a significant enough bill) It was my daughter's birthday and the servier just put her dessert down and walked away without even wishing her a happy birthday. At around 8 pm, the music changed and it was so loud and so inappropriate for the space which is supposed to be an elegant French restaurant, Although I've eaten there before, it was a very disappointing dinner.

We had another fabulous meal at Marchesa. Nick took great care of us and everything just worked so well. All the staff was great. We love all their food but we had 2 dishes that were new to us. The crab and lobster ravioli was divine and the steak frites with the hanger steak had so much flavor and those herbed frites were some of the best fries I’ve ever had. We had the 2020 Fevre Chablis which is drinking quite well and is delicious, definitely recommended. We shared a glass of Cote-du-Rhône with the hanger steak and the pairing was perfect. Always great food and atmosphere. We’re headed back home in Mississippi now, but we’ll be back in 2 weeks!

My Worst service experience in decades. And easily the worst ever at this price point. At every stage the service was bad. Took forever to take our drink order. Waited forever for our drinks. Then gave us the wrong drinks. Had to chase down the waiter to take our food order. One person in our party asked specifically if an appetizer had dairy and was assured it didn’t. It arrived creamy. Entrees took forever to arrive. An Order of seafood risotto arrived as truffle risotto. Water glasses were rarely refilled. Begged to order a glass of wine. Empty Glasses from a pre meal cocktails stayed on the table until we asked they be removed when dessert was delivered — 2.5 hours into this interminable event. We had to beg for dessert menus. But took another 15 minutes to take our order and another 15 minutes for gelato to arrive - and they gave us the wrong gelatos. Never got an apology for any mistakes or delays. No offer of a complimentary dessert. Nothing. Waiter blamed the kitchen for the numerous order errors. Through all this the wait staff spent plenty of time socializing at the end of the bar. The Food was very tasty and the restaurant interior is very nice.

Marchesa was the perfect spot to celebrate with an intimate dinner on the evening of our weekday wedding (just bride, groom, and their parents in the dining room). The food, atmosphere, and service were perfect for the occasion. For the food, the escargot, sea bass, and duck were standouts! Our table was appointed with tasteful decorations added to enhance the celebratory atmosphere, and our server went out of his way to take care of us. I would recommend this spot if you are looking for something intimate, romantic, with an old-school attention to service. Thank you Philippe and thank you Marchesa.

Not sure what this restaurant is trying to be. Beautiful dining room. Was nice, quiet and romantic until about 7:45, then the nice background French Jazz turned to club style house music and got loud. Service was just barely passable, Our waiter was very nice, but seemed to be over-worked with too many tables, including indoor and outdoor seating. I give him points for trying and keeping an upbeat attitude. Food, especially for these prices, was just ok. Weird combo of flavors on the tuna I had, and not a great cut of meat on my wife's steak frittes. Charcutrie/cheese combo platter was good. $4.25 for each diet coke in a tiny glass (maybe 5-6 oz) that was 1/2 ice is ridiculous - plus the fact that getting refills took forever. We spent $36 on fountain drinks! It was fine. We are not appalled or anything, but we won't be back to spend another $200 on a so-so dinner and would not recommend it to anybody. There are too many great places in Chicago.

This was my first visit. I took my mother for her 85th birthday. The service was impeccable. The food was very good as well, except for the Ahi tuna. - it seemed a bit dry. I was also surprised that I was charged for my mother's birthday dessert; usually this is a "comped" item at the restaurants that I have booked on Open Table. They had a table that was reserved for special occasions and I felt it should have been offered to us; it was given to a "walk in" that arrived after we did. The couple was also celebrating a birthday.

Hey guys. We were excited to try this chic looking place for a date night. Nice decor and ambiance. Appears upscale but the slow service and average food brought it down several notches. The server seemed overwhelmed from the beginning when he explained that he has a part of 15 to attend to, so we felt unimportant. The entrees arrived about an hour after we ordered them. There’s far too many better places in Chicago to be bothered with this place. We’ve been here twice: our first and last time.

Everything was fantastic from appetizer to desert. Started with the escargot and it was tender and flavorful. We ordered the Coquilles St Jacques and Beef Bourguignon.
