    I hate to write this, but I believe everyone should be aware of the 3% surcharge on your bill for no apparent reason. I noticed it after hearing on a local news report that many local restaurants in the Chicagoland area have decided to adopt a 3% surcharge. We enjoyed our dining experience, but after the 20% tip and about 10% tax on the bill, another dubious 3% surcharge for who nows what is getting to be a bit over the top. I will have to rethink my return. The establishment should, at the very least, make the customer aware of all charges.

    The food at Shaw’s just never disappoints. We live in Chicago and usually eat at the River North location but had a friend in town staying in Schaumburg. Great cocktails, food and decor. Excellent service. AND I made our reservation for the wrong day, but they were able to acccommodate us.

    Unfortunately the halibut was overcooked. Everything else was great.

    Food was fine, a little overpriced, especially for the seafood salad I had for lunch.
