Really good food with great service in a relaxing setting overlooking the river. The only downer was the droning of 90’s and early 2000’s music that added nothing to the experience. Cut the tunes and keep up the good food and service.

Bizarre experience. The waiter was having a rough day...we thought we were on candid camera. food was okay. I usually enjoy going to here, but this one wasn't the best showing.

Great waitress. Food is what it is: Quickly served higher end bar fare. Nothing different from other places in Chicago serving young professionals. Nose level is very high.

I had to move a reservation up during the week for a business meeting - and Steph was extremely helpful and cooperative to make it happen! It was not an easy task but she made it work. The meeting went off without a hitch. Our waiter was attentive and ensured we stayed on time. Another fabulous meal with the South Brand team.

Great service, amazing ambiance. & food. Table side outside by the river was gorgeous. Summer time Chi vibe is unmatched. If you sign up for the rewards program, you even get a delicious appetizer.
