    My favorite restaurant in all of Chicago. Consistently fantastic. The crispy veggie egg rolls, chicken dumplings, signature fried rice, and shaking beef are musts. The cocktail program could use some TLC but the food is so good it doesn’t matter.

    The lunch menu offers several healthy and delicious options. I had a salad with added salmon. It included a generous portion of avocado. They have a selection of outstanding green teas. Stacy, our waitress, provided excellent service. We lingered after lunch and had a long, enjoyable conversation. No one rushed us to leave.

    We had a lovely experience at the new Tavern on Rush!! This was our first time at the new location and it exceeded expectations! The restaurant was very crowded, given the holiday season, but the service and food was top notch! Noelle was our server and she tended to our every need with a smile! The cocktails were delicious and the French red that we selected from the extensive wine list was also amazing. Noelle helped us plan our meal, including steak and sides and all were fabulous! The "welcome mini-martini" was a very nice touch, and one I've not seen before. We will definitely be back!!
