Best Restaurants with Bar Seating in Old Town

The food was exceptional. We really enjoyed the oysters, sushi and rolls. Fantastic cocktails and wonderful ambiance on the bar seating. Professional service as well.

I had an incredible experience at Three Dots and a Dash the evening of 12/22/2024. We had reservations in the Bamboo Room, which is a quieter, more intimate, rum focused experience. Matt, the bartender that evening, was fabulous; attentive, thoughtful, engaged, and friendly. We ordered a few drinks from the menu then asked Matt to create something special for us and his drinks did not disappoint. My experience with Tiki and rum drinks is decent; having visited almost every Tiki bar from San Diego to San Francisco (including Trader Vic’s at SJC), Tacoma to Seattle, & a Mai Tai tour across Oahu). 3 Dots is a must do, especially if you are a tiki or rum fan. Food was great too. Next time I fly back to Chicago I will definitely visit again.

It was my Anniversary❣️ I mistakenly reserved the bar for seating, but the kind, caring employee made sure we got a table for this precious occasion! I’ve came for the last 3 yrs for my Anniversary and will continue! I thank you all kindly for Always making our day so Special❣️❣️❣️❣️

This was our second time dining at Bar Mar and we absolutely loved it both times! The ambiance, hostess staff, cocktails, wine selection, caviar cones, and too many items on the food menu to name! Our waiter Alex was so attentive and didn’t rush us. And who can forget the Bar - just spectacular! Would definitely return.

Delicious lunch ! I had the tuna tartare, shrimp fettuccini and crème brûlée Everything was amazing ! The fettuccini is unique, not your typical cream sauce , which I thought was amazing , but just know that. The portion was large as were the shrimp ! Crème brûlée was truly some of the best I have ever had , highly recommend it!
