- JJoniChicago / Illinois •10 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoCame to this venue on a Friday evening. For Happy Hour we did the Bacon Popcorn, Wings (2), and Fries Pickles/Okra. We were appetizers while we sipped our cocktails. For drinks, I had a spicy Margarita and my husband had the old fashion. We enjoyed our cocktail service. Happy Hour is 5 of 5 stars. For dinner, we sat upstairs and it was quieter to our delight. The downstairs is vibrant and lively which is great but on this occasion wanted a different vibe. The second floor boosted a view of the street and then also a nice view of private dining room area. For food we got the biscuits, fried chicken and bbq platter. The biscuits were so darn good. Would order again and again. The fried chicken was good, nothing special about the mash potatoes. The bbq platter was good also, enjoyed all the meats. Food was 4 out of 5 stars. Overall we enjoyed our dinner experience. We had a lovely conversation with the manger, Emily that evening. We learned a lot about this establishment and also about their other locations. Emily was good about educating us on the offerings at this restaurant. Look forward to coming back for brunch. Overall, a 4.5 out of 5 stars. I would say that pricing on some entrees were high. We didn't leave full but we were satisfied.More infoYardbird Table & Bar - ChicagoPrice: Expensive• Contemporary Southern• River North (Chicago)•4.6
- TTiffanyVIPChicago / Illinois •13 reviews5.0Dined 7 days agoI've been to Virtue a number of times and I always have a good experience. This time, the appetizers were a miss, but the mains were a hit. For appetizers, we had the chicken gizzard which were cold and the sauce was greasy and just not good. We also had the fried green tomatoes, which were ok, they just lacked season. However, the pork steak which is relatively new was amazing. The fish and grits, mac and cheese and greens were amazing. And, the Cornbread as per usual was to die for.More infoVirtuePrice: Expensive• Southern• Hyde Park•4.9
- KKirylChicago / Illinois •2 reviews5.0Dined on Feb 14, 2025Me & my wife visited Blue Door on her birthday, and decided to come back on the V-Day. This place is amazing: the quality of food, overall atmosphere and hospitality - it feels like every details there is made to make you feel like home. We ordered a couple of drinks (Smoked Cherry was a top notch), appetisers and mains (Lamb, salmon) - everything was cooked to perfection. Special thanks to our waitress for outstanding service (If you are reading this - you did a great job!), the cooks & to John for complimentary champagne and being so nice :) You, guys, do an amazing job. We will for sure be back! Overall: 5/5More infoBlue Door Kitchen & GardenPrice: Moderate• American• Gold Coast / Streeterville•4.7
