- EEmilyNew York City •1 review5.0Dined 4 days agoMicheal our server went above and beyond to make my husband and I feel special during a very luxurious lunch to celebrate his 60th birthday. We tried Eve egg luxury bite and loved them all. The wagyu tartar and king crab and potato skin w caviar were our favorites. Oysters were stellar! Beet and apple salad was a refreshing bridge between our small bites and steak with lobster tail. And the au gratin potatoes and mushroom sides were each beyond outstanding.More infoPrime & Provisions SteakhousePrice: Moderate• Steakhouse• River North (Chicago)•4.7
- RRyanSan Francisco Bay Area •1 review5.0Dined 5 days agoI took my mom for a Valentine's Day lunch. We went around 3 PM, and even though my reservation was at 3:30 PM the staff were nice enough to let me in. Granted it was a low volume of people eating at the time. We were sat near the windows which added to the ambience of our visit. The music made it feel like we were in an old fancy jazz club. I had the French onion soup and the chicken sandwich while my mom had the Walnut turkey club sandwich. Both sandwiches came with well seasoned fries. The food was delicious and our waitress, Annette, was very attentive and sweet. Overall we had a great experience and would definitely go again. I would highly recommend the Walnut Room.More infoThe Walnut Room - ChicagoPrice: Expensive• American• Downtown / Loop•4.6

We were greeted at the door, and our waitress was exceptional and very patient, considering we had a party of eight. The food was delicious, especially the Lou Malnati salad. The bathroom was clean, and the ambiance was lovely, with music you could nod your head to.More infoLou Malnati's - South LoopPrice: Moderate• Pizzeria• South Loop•4.6
