Exceptional for celebrating and plain delicious for a bite.

My partner and I celebrated our anniversary at Daisie's and could not have been happier with our experience. We received outstanding service that made us feel extra special on our special day. Our server, Nick, wished us happy anniversary immediately after seating us, and treated us to two glasses of champagne on the house. Additionally, Nick helped us select between two pasta dishes. Later, he came out carrying the one we hadn't chose, saying that the kitchen had extra and he knew of a perfect home - on the house. Our food was impeccable, and each dish tasted like it was made with intention and care with a creative & local emphasis. Even the cocktail wowed me! The unique pasta shapes delighted me to no end. Thank you thank you for helping us (and our tastebuds) feel celebrated!

Ken’s is usually a pleasant dining experience with good service and excellent food. However, last night, a few minutes after we were seated, a group of six people were seated at the roundtable in the front. We were almost at the rear of the restaurant. These people were so loud that it created an unpleasant experience. They were literally screaming. I did not want to say anything because I was hoping that when they got their food, they would get quiet. They were so loud that I thought the hostess should have said something to them, but I suppose that’s a difficult situation to address. In spite of this, I would return to Ken’s. I have lived in the neighborhood for many years and have gone to ken’s for many years also. The bacon Panko crusted whitefish that I had was excellent.

Jose was an excellent server. Made great recommendations. Food was very good Charcuterie was perfect for 4, small caesar salad was shareable. Mushroom ravioli dish was very good as well. We had a great view looking out at Muddy Waters mural. Great for pre show dinner. And of course , the building is iconic Chicago history!
