    The minute we walked in, they made us feel VIP. We celebrated a milestone birthday and requested a window view of the Chicago River. They accommodated and provided special birthday touches. A card and free dessert with a candle included. The best was the food. Amazing !

    Our dinner at Prime & Provisions was outstanding. We started with handcrafted cocktails, each made with a special twist. Our server Drew was exceptional. He was attentive and engaging, explaining the menu and making sure our glasses were never empty (including our teen who was enjoying Shirley Temples). Our food was superb. My husband and one of our daughters enjoyed steaks, another daughter and I went with the Dover sole with the most delicious beurre blanc sauce, and our youngest enjoyed an off menu hamburger that Drew told her about. The sides were a hit as well - the mashed potatoes should not be missed! We ended the evening with the sundae cart and the banana cream pie. My only complaint of the evening was that we waited 25 minutes after our reservation time to be seated. We had cocktails while we waited, but 25 minutes seemed a bit long to have to wait. After 15 minutes I expect a restaurant to offer a small apology - comp an app, offer an amuse bouche, just something to acknowledge the inconvenience. Once we were seated the wait time was quickly forgotten and we had a wonderful night.

    We booked this restaurant to celebrate some December birthdays. Our party of 6 absolutely enjoyed our meal. The service was fantastic. They walked through the menu and made suggestions on portions to order for the size of our group. The table was constantly cleared of empty plates and always asked if anything was needed. They were also sure to consider any allergies in the group. The food was amazing! We were able to try a number of dishes as well as the sets and ribeye. For the meat, they cooked it at the table and was excellent. Will be back in the future.

    10/10 would come back again. Good holiday drinks and food was superb. Waitress was busy but managed to continually ask how we were doing. Restaurant stayed on top of the fact we were going to a play later that night and kept us on track to be at theatre on time.
