    We came for drinks, waited 25 minutes for a server, then another 25-30 for our drinks to come out. I ordered the keto spritz which is not what I received but didn’t see her again for 40 minutes, so just made it work. We needed to leave for another reservation but our server was nowhere to be found. By the time we found her and asked for the check, we had to push our other reservation back. It took another 30 minutes to actually get the check after asking and we were feeling very frustrated. We sent part of our group ahead to get our other reservation and we stayed back to finally get our tab paid. We would have ordered more drinks if the service was faster. This was our first experience here and the place is so cute so we were pretty bummed :(

    I went here for my birthday and I all I wanted was an outdoor patio to sit at and this place came up when I was looking online. I even made a reservation for an outdoor seating space and when I got there they told me that I couldn’t sit outside even though there were empty tables on their patio. I just don’t understand why you would allow me to make an outdoor reservation if i’m not gonna be able to eat outside. As for the food it was pretty decent I got the steak and frites which was nicely cooked and the sauce was flavorful. The fries were honestly the best part very crispy. My girlfriend got the chicken pesto flatbread and which was not horrible but the chicken was very dry.

    We love it!!! It was a MUST repeat upon returning to Residence Inn Chicago Downtown Magnificent Mile. I love the piano music and singer - love love love it! The food is superb. Waitstaff are very attentive. Alcoholic beverages on point - always great. Thanks for a wonderful meal. See you next time (3rd time).

    We were a larger party, and we thoroughly enjoyed Bar 101. Our cocktails were tasty and reasonably priced. Plus the happy hour menu offered something for everyone - to include good food. The team at Bar 101 was awesome. Service was very good, and the ambiance in the bar was more sophisticated yet still inviting. The burger, sliders, and soups were all very tasty. Thoroughly enjoyed our time here and we will be back!

    Mia, Juan, and Bijan provided excellent service. The French toast and lamb hummus were phenomenal. I will definitely return.

    Food was good but was not asked how I would want my steak cooked. Mistakenly given food when it didn’t belong to our table. Also overheard the table next to us never got their food.

    This was way better than anticipated. The food was delicious. We went on Valentines Day (with a reservation we did not get until the night before) which included a Prix Fix menu. The food was tasty and not too much. I left feeling full and not over fed. There was a jazz trio playing. The room is not overly crowded which I very much like. The decor is a mid century vibe. The views were nice overlooking north Michigan Ave. We had a great view of the Allerton sign.

    3 of the 4 of us had meals that were absolutely delicious. The lobster sliders, however, were served on thick slices of white toast…not tasty. Server was very lively. Except for the sliders, I would have given it a 5 rating.
