    We visited Shaw's for restaurant week. I started out with clam chowder soup, next lobster tails and finished with creme brulee. I was not disappointed at all. Our server was also very good.

    Pleasantly surprised. Excellent sushi as a starter, wedge salad and lobster bisque as appetizer were both excellent. Mains were seafood platter and steak with lobster. Steak was over salted and overcooked but all seafood was fresh and very well prepared. Sides of mushroom and potatoes au gratin were also very good. Dessert of key lime pie and crème brûlée - 2 thumbs up. Cocktails and wine choices great. Service was very good. Other than the steaks - close to a perfect r meal.

    Overall very good however they should work on training their staff. Valet was not so friendly and it was not busy. Told us to leave the key fob in the car and as we went in he ran out door barely hanging us our car check stub. And as I said there was no one else in valet waiting. Then we arrived 20 min early to be able to have a drink at the bar. When we checked in the hostess “was not sure we’d have a table “ if we didn’t sit right away. Upon pressing her and reinforcing our reservation was still 20 min away she said we would have a table at 6:15. Those 2 instance’s made our night start off on the wrong foot. Luckily the bar tender and our waiter were both wonderful and turned our frowns upside down. And the food was delicious.

    Was there for Restaurant Week the choices were good and somewhat reasonable in price at $60 but $18 for cocktails is overpriced. Will return to this restaurant but will forgo the expensive cocktails in the future

    Went for restaurant week menus were not as represented on the Chicago restaurant week menu. Ordered anyway it was over 206.00 plus tip for lunch and drinks. Hubby drinks beer I had 2 mixed drinks. Food was good but not great for the price. I gave my lettuce entertainment number not sure if it will be added. Never had a problem when dining at other lettuce restaurants.
