Waited almost 15 mins to be greeted after we were seated. Got our drinks and meal all at the same time. Main meals were good but the desserts were not that great. The bananas foster was cold which was confusing since it had the flaming sauce poured over.

From the moment we stepped into Storyville, it was clear this wasn’t just a restaurant—it was an experience. The ambiance perfectly captures that moody, vibrant spirit of New Orleans with a touch of Chicago edge. We dove into a menu full of bold Cajun flavors—each dish delivered that rich, soulful punch we were hoping for. The cocktails? Impeccable. Creative, balanced, and made with care, they paired beautifully with the spice and depth of the food. But the highlight of the evening was dessert. The Banana Foster wasn’t just a dish—it was a show. Our waiter expertly ignited the liquor right at our table, melting the ingredients together in a dramatic, fiery finish that was as delicious as it was mesmerizing. A perfect blend of flavor and flair. If you’re in Chicago and craving something vibrant, flavorful, and unforgettable—Storyville is the place to go.

Service fees and gratuity are added on top and the poor level of service reflects it

Very nice experience. Hostess was very nice & aimed to please. She was 5 stars! I would say they needed some heat on because it was very chilly in there. We actually switched seats because you could feel the air coming in from outside in the front. Also, quite dark ambiance. I would have preferred more light especially since I was there during brunch time. Overall not bad.
