Restaurants near Spa at the Peninsula Chicago

As usual...EVERYTHING was GREAT! FOOD - SERVICE - EVERYTHING!!!

One of the few remaining excellent restaurants in Chicago. An overall wonderful dining experience.

So good, wine selection perfect, five of us , 4 appetizers, five entrees, 4 desserts all wonderful and service is excellent, non intrusive, but always refilling water, clearing , offering drinks. It was perfect for our celebration.

We appreciate an authentic Italian ambience and fantastic service. Rosebud consistently wins with great food and drinks! We have enjoyed rosebud in both large group settings and intimate meals for 2. The patio, downstairs and upstairs dining rooms each offer different dining experience which the staff has tailored well based on our group sizes. Highly recommend for a date and night out with close friends.

What a treat to rediscover RL after moving from Chicago a few years ago! On a bitter cold and snowy day, we decided on a last minute late lunch and had a marvelous meal. Our server, Amanda was outstanding, personable and enthusiastically answered my husband's questions about the walleye, which he throughly enjoyed. It was light and flavorful and deemed as good as (though he meant better) than the shore lunches he had while fishing in Canada. I enjoyed the off the menu special crab cake that was sumptuous and delicious to the last bite....better than the ordinary restaurant fare. Though we usually like to read the dessert menu and then pass so we can smugly congratulate ourselves on our willpower, we gave in this day when Amanda told us about the peanut butter cheesecake-like texture presented as a small cake shape and drizzled with chocolate. Boy if there was ever a time to deviate from our cautious approach to desserts, this was it! This was how do they describe it, "smack your mama good?" That was it. So good we talked about it on our way back home to Michigan...the entire visit this time renewed our love for Chicago and the little moments like this that mean so much. A great way to spend some time during a classic urban winter snow storm. Thank you Amanda and the talented RL chef!
