    Really enjoyed dinning here. We took the kids to the Aquarium and didn’t have plans ahead of time on where to dine. We were able to get in quite easily - and honestly I am kinda shocked, but I really loved my dinner. Had the artichoke app and Stracci for the main course. Loved both. Everyone was really happy. Super chill place that has a really cool vibe. Definitely on the slow side - so if you are looking for a quick bite before plans, this is not your place. Otherwise, highly recommended.

    The appetizer selection was impressive. My wife and I shared oysters and the bone marrow. Both were very good. The house cocktail list was tasty. I had the Fame in Chicago. My wife had the spicy lobster pasta dish that was outstanding. For dessert, we split the apple, butterscotch, carmel, and creme brule. Overall, great food and service with an amazing view of the Chicago river.

    Outside of the fortress process of getting up to the 67th floor, it was excellent service, extremely personable staff, a stunning view amongst the most delicious meal. We got the oysters, lobster bisque was seriously AMAZING, the prime rib with mashed potatoes and mushrooms. All of it was very tasty and the peanut butter espresso martini was an amazing dessert cocktail
