Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Celeste offers a vibrant atmosphere across its four distinct levels, making it a "superb place" for celebrations. Enjoy attentive service and standout dishes like arancini and tacos. While the ambiance is lively, the sound system could improve. Don't miss the rooftop bar, though it can be quite loud.

    Celeste beautifully captures the holiday spirit with its rustic speakeasy vibe, chic ambiance, and magnificent multi-floor layout. We enjoyed a cozy date night on the second floor, starting with prosecco, fried chicken bites, and a Caesar salad—generous portions overall, though the chicken was slightly oily. A delightful spot for a stylish evening out!

    I came here for dinner and drinks with friends. Shishito peppers made me book the reservation but they were out. It happens. Drinks were so strong so a friend and I asked for more sweetener for her espresso martini and juice for my cocktail. Would be nice to have more of a variety of cocktails offered. Arancini and Tacos were great!!!! Will be back to get my shishito peppers. 5 star service.

    Hi - Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts with us. While we’re glad you enjoyed the arancini and the tacos, we’re disappointed to hear that the cocktail menu didn’t exceed expectations. We appreciate your feedback as we continue to improve our guest experience.

    Absolutely beautiful decor in the restaurant you can look out and see the river. The food was fantastic. Probably one of the best filet steaks I’ve had in a really long time.  Our server was excellent and very knowledgeable

    Celeste is a great vibe. It has 4 levels, all with a different type of vibe. The roof top was my favorite. We had dinner on the first level, laid back ambiance. I got the steak sliders (which were actually roast beef). It was dry to my taste. My friend had steak and mashed potatoes (Same thing - roast beef). At that point, I think it is a Chicago thing. The waitress was very nice and professional. She changed my order with no problem. Security was awesome. We felt safe at all times. I would recommend this restaurant, but just know you what type of “steak” you are ordering, opposed to what you like

    Didn’t eat here but came for the rooftop bar. It was quite loud and I tried to make a reservation but it wasn’t able to for the rooftop bar. Not a big deal, we were still able to get a drink and dance a little. It was pretty loud and not our vibe so we didn’t stay long. I’ve been to the disco club before, liked that a lot better than the rooftop bar.

    Overall it was a great experience however the venue was over packed with people at times making it hard to dance and have a good time. The sound system was mediocre, they would not have to blast the volume up if they had a good sound system. Otherwise it is a superb place.
