- CCarylvipChicago / Illinois •39 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoA fantastic respite from the hustle and bustle of the season. We love going to Joe’s for delicious seafood and steaks and eat there as often as we can. The service is always delightful.More infoJoe's Seafood, Prime Steak & Stone CrabPrice: Very Expensive• Seafood• River North (Chicago)•4.9
- PPaulChicago / Illinois •2 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoFirst visit since the place was converted from Ben Pao.. Beautiful feel (reminiscent of our beloved LEYE "Avanzare" restaurant). The music level was, in our opinion, too loud to maintain a pleasant conversation. It id not seem to affect other diners. Your Italian wines list is superb. We tried a bottle from Sicily (on our own but with approval from your in house sommelier).More infoRPM Italian - ChicagoPrice: Expensive• Italian• River North (Chicago)•4.7
- VValerieChicago / Illinois •2 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoI went with a group of friends for my birthday, and it was the best decision I could’ve made! Although we were all late due to downtown traffic, the restaurant was willing to wait for my entire party to arrive while we waited at the bar. The food portions were outstanding! Everyone said that their food was delicious! The restaurant is beautiful, and it was an energetic vibe, but not too noisy. Our waiter was excellent. He went above and beyond even taking a picture of us outside. Although it is pricey, I would definitely go again. More infoSTK – ChicagoPrice: Expensive• Steakhouse• River North (Chicago)•4.1
- MMarcChicago / Illinois •16 reviews4.0Dined 4 days agoThe bass was excellent, and the Kofta was tasty. However, the humus was a disappointment—not better than what one can buy in a grocery store. The cauliflower/broccoli dish was a good surprise. Overall, the food was good, but not surprising. The place was full (on a Friday night) -- crowded and noisy. Service was slow.More infoEma - River NorthPrice: Expensive• Mediterranean• River North (Chicago)•4.7

The food was divine and the wine selection was vast. I haven’t been back since 2018 and am so glad we got to visit this trip! We will be back :)More infoQuartino - ChicagoPrice: Moderate• Italian• River North (Chicago)•4.5
