Restaurants near Lyric Opera of Chicago

The full package, gorgeous space, delicious food, and spectacular service. We tucked into Bar Mar and it was an oasis of warmth on a cold day. We were greeted like old friends and made very comfortable. We ordered West Coast oysters, Neptune's Pillows, and Sloppy Jose - it was the perfect lunch to satisfy our seafood and spice cravings. For dessert, there is sticky toffee pudding and the stellar Key Pie. I'll be dreaming of that Key Pie for a long time. Our server was an absolute delight. She was efficient, professional, and fun! Jenn was a joy and made us feel like VIPs. We will be back for more fantastic food and fun.

We dined with family and friends for Thanksgiving dinner at Roanoke. We could not have been happier. The set menu still allowed diners to individually select drinks, appetizers, sides, the main dish (turkey and trimmings, salmon, steak), and dessert. Everything was delicious and well-seasoned. The wait staff was attentive. It was a packed house (because who cooks anymore?). We even ordered an extra plate to go (because leftovers are a must!). If Roanoke offers Thanksgiving dinner again, we will book it again!

Ten out of Ten I’m a Chicago native I’ve been all over the steak house scene. This place is by far the best. The host Christos, is the most accommodating and professional he knows the business inside and out. The entire staff treats you like family. The food is excellent I highly recommend doing the tasting experience, make sure to add the Japanese flight waygu and the cotton candy foie gras.

Eric was our server. He is attentive thoughtful and personable. His depth of knowledge of the menu is exceptional. His demeanor is both kind and caring. Yummy Cesar salad. Burger is a home run. Chicken Bebe was yummy

Awesome experience and the staff was extremely knowledgeable
