- KKarenVIPChicago / Illinois •1 review5.0Dined 2 days agoThe only issue we seem to have is that we are always seated by a full table of loud women which is very annoying when there are other empty tables available. Please stop doing this. I would like to be able to hear the person I am dining with.More infoRH Rooftop Restaurant Oak BrookPrice: Very Expensive• American• Oak Brook•4.6
- BBenVIPTampa / Central Florida West •35 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoLoved the live music outside. This is one of our favorite restaurants. Everything is excellent other than we didn’t care for the vegetables and potatoes Intentionally being cold served with the fish. I think that should be clearly disclosed on the menu since it’s weird and really not very appetizing to have hot fish with cold mashed potatoes. Other than that highly recommend everything.
