Undercooked food, overpriced curling that didn’t even last the 40 minutes we paid for, and waitresses refused to let us sit back down at our table after curling because apparently I should have read the website saying there was a 2 hour limit, and there were more reservations coming in… we were a party of 8 and represented about 1/3 of clients in the building at the time (place was dead) and for the rest of the duration of our stay… seems like maybe they could have worked with us but chose to be rude instead.

After living in Chicago for 5 years, this was the WORST cheeseburger I’ve ever had in this city…and probably anywhere else. Every element of the burger was wrong: the 2 burger patties were completely bland, unseasoned, overcooked & they were 1/2 the size of the bun they came on. The bacon was burnt to dark brown, was bitter and crumbled to pieces while trying to eat the burger. The burger was mostly lettuce, tomato, onion & bun. And the bun wasn’t even good. Plain old potato bun that seemed kind of stale…. Prices are too high for the awful quality of food which, I am not exaggerating, would 100% lose a taste test to McDonalds. Never again!

Have been twice - once upstairs and sat at the bar- and once sat downstairs in their side room. Each experience was like being at two different restaurants and couldn’t have been more different. I def prefer the upstairs- sitting at the bar. Amazing food - service - experience. Downstairs side room was just meh and cold!

Food is great but patrons just find it necessary to yell at the top of their lungs instead of talking to each other. Did not enjoy the weird yelling lumberjack wannabe ambiance. But the food was great and very decent portions. Large fries were super super large and very very good!

I know this is a place where hockey fans go to before the game. Maybe the food is prepared ahead of time to move quickly but everything was cold when delivered. Food was coming out of the kitchen so quickly. I would have preferred a hot meal instead of a meal that was sitting in the kitchen waiting to be ordered.

Came in with the rest of the concert goers for Dave Matthews. Great place for the United Center. Shuttle was fantastic and a great draw to the place. Food was great and surprisingly quick. Only negative is the noise. When the room filled up, the sound filled the room and made it difficult to have a conversation. Will definitely be back!

Was so looking forward to this dinner. The bacon grenades had no flavor; the bacon on the board was "okay". The bomb was exactly that. A bomb of a sandwich (and not in a good way). Our waitress/staff were really nice and the beer was probably the only delight.
