South Branch

Lovely patio in a great location, excellent service and food.

We were going to the Lyric and were short on time due to traffic. We preordered our food on our way there. When we arrived everything was right on time. The staff went out of their way to help us make the most of our short time that we had to eat. And the food was delicious! Thank you!

Good to be outdoors, convivial atmosphere.

Great outdoor views, and inside had a great modern dinning feel. Food was fantastic and quick! We were very happy with our choice for lunch!

Wow..what a wonderful place to dine and enjoy great service, great food and great drinks, Kudos to the manager and staff..the service provided was phenomenal! You can tell the employees truly enjoy working there..The ambiance was amazing! Will definitely be returning..

Great seating outdoors. Great service - I asked for water without ice and got it! Asked that the umbrella be put down so we could bask in the sun. They quickly accommodated.
And of course, the ahi tuna tacos were superb!

Loved the ahi tuna and mahi-mahi tacos! Sat outside, and it was great!

Ate on patio and took our dogs. Great food and service. Lovely patio

We enjoyed our experience, and our server was a ninja.
We loved sitting outside, but the plants need to be further from the booths or some pesticide needs to be put on them, the bugs kept annoying us.

I went to South Branch for the first time to connect with a colleague. Love that it’s right on the river and close to the office. Lots of menu options, really good food.

Ahi tuna tacos with garlic mashed potatoes was fantastic! Hubby liked his ahi tuna salad and daughter really enjoyed her chicken wrap and tatro tots. Absolutely love the atmosphere and vibe on their patio!

Have had lunch there two days in a row this week so I must like it! The Cobb salad was very good and the Ahi tuna salad was good(it has been better in the past) but still tasty. I love the outdoor option in the Loop, great place for business lunch or after work happy hour. Still our go-to place in the financial district.

Food was a little pricey but good location

Great Friday night spot to slowdown

I saw the restaurant on Facebook and decided to give it a try. Beautiful and clean place! Staff smiling and very polite. Right by the river. Outside patio amazing. Food was perfect.

Excellent selection of food and drinks. Very tasty!

The folks that work here are always fabulous. The food is good too!

A perfect place to meet and even better when the weather is nice and you can sit outside. Many great outdoor choices with fantastic views.

Lovely patio, attentive service and solid sandwich offerings

It was a beautiful night in Chicago! The food was excellent and all the staff members we interacted with were wonderful. Enjoyed it so much we made a reservation for the next evening!

pretty view, good food and nice service!

Server/bartender super nice. The lobster roll was a poor choice on our part, can tell it is just imitation lobster. The Buffalo rolls appetizer though was great.

The food was wonderful

Great gathering place with great service, food and drinks

Very happy with the location, the seating, the food and the service. Great spot - very convenient. Server was very knowledgeable and the menu is quite extensive. Highly recommend.

Amazing service and great drinks! I will keep this gem in my pocket for my next night out.

Great - got there early and they accommodated us right away. Food was great as always!

I made a request for a semi quiet space and they honored it. I was extremely happy with the service and the food. The cocktails came quick and I never felt rushed. Thanks again!

Everything from the service, food and efficiency was excellent!

We were seated right away. Service was excellent. Food was amazing. Will definitely go back when I return to the office for work because it’s down the street.

Good food, good drinks. Very nice location. Would return.

We were seated in a tight spot across from a party of 12 and it was quite noisy. You could barely hear yourself talk during the lunch hour. Not a good experience this time,

We showed up 10 minutes before the reservation and was told the place was full waiting time would be another 30 minutes. This place does not honor reservations. As there were a few people from multiple groups standing by the host desk having the same issue. Please take them off from this list. Very bad experience.

First time…/great time. Great food!

Great experience every time we go!

Great lunch spot indoors or outdoors. Be sure to make reservations.

Excellent place for a drink and bite after a day of work or exploring the loop. The is a fairly generous outdoor space with some seating that faces the river (looking west). The outdoor bar, itself, was closed on this specific day; when open, it adds a lovely vibe to the experience. If South Branch would put back umbrellas that used to be at booths, I think it the atmosphere would be better!

Food was fantastic and the service was perfection. It is extremely loud though - so I would not come here if you wanted to have a conversation or meeting.

Finally! Happy hour is back! Had a great time going to South Branch for a work happy hour. Our table was ready right away and the servers were great.

The food was as delicious as I remembered. Brought a colleague in from another state and he also thought it was very good. Service was great - enough to felt well taken care of but not too much that they kept interrupting. I recommend the tater tots.
