    I absolutely loved my first visit to Summer House - Chicago. I took my client out to lunch and wanted to experience something different and found Summer House on IG. A great location and the food is delish. Josh was a great server. It reminds me of Hampton Social or White Sheep with the look and decor. Great service…

    Wonderful breakfast/brunch venue. Obviously a neighborhood spot based on the mix of diners who were there on a Sunday. Not a budget place to eat, but rather a high quality restaurant with excellent service and food!

    Each dish was crafted to perfection and the glass pour wine options were world-class. Service was personable and professional. It was all paced perfectly. I hesitate to say it, but I think it was the best duck I have ever eaten. The restaurant manages to give both "neighborhood" AND "Michelin" vibes.
