What our guests are saying
This restaurant really left a mark on my recent trip to Chicago. I definitely recommend. The mussels were my absolute favorite dish! But honestly every dish we had was so good, absolutely no complaints. I am coming back here every visit to Chicago from now on. If you live in Chicago run don’t walk!

Really incredible experience. Absolutely delicious, and I love the way the service was given. They bring out everything in small plates for sharing with the table and everyone gets to try everything! Definitely recommend bringing 3-4 people to get a well rounded experience!This would be a cool date. If you're into trying different cuisines and are a foodie, this one won't disappoint. The flavors were huge and so so good.

6 Stars if I could give them. Amazing staff, amazing food and lovely environment. No one there neither staff or patrons looked like they weren’t enjoying life. We had several lovely small plates of food from the buffet menu. All of them were flavorful and fresh. Clearly quality produce. We also tried some of their Brut and wines. Which we liked a lot. Our server was Bojana and she was super friendly, helpful and attentive. Her and the manager remembered it was our anniversary from my reservation and did everything to make it special. Thank you and we can’t wait to come back next time we are in Chicago!
