- EElizabethVIPChicago / Illinois •5 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoBeautiful space, the restaurant was largely empty because of the bitter cold day (a Monday no less). We had friendly and attentive service (thank you, Edgar!). Would definitely return.More infoLa Grande Boucherie - ChicagoPrice: Very Expensive• French• River North (Chicago)•4.3
- RRudyFort Lauderdale •1 review5.0Dined 1 day agoLet me begin with our waiter Jack. This young man was pleasant, attentive and had a warm spirit. Jack made dining fun and exciting. If you ever go to yard bird ask for jack. The manager Sophia, was checking on every table to ensure service was top tier. If you in the magnificent mile area in Chicago please stop by this establishment you will not be disappointed.More infoYardbird Table & Bar - ChicagoPrice: Expensive• Regional American (Contemporary Southern)• River North (Chicago)•4.6
- AAdinaChicago / Illinois •1 review5.0Dined 2 days agoWe tried this restaurant last night and had the best time. The food was amazing, but what was really amazing was our server Rene and the staff. The staff was so on top of it, and the food came out so fast. It was our friend's birthday, and we were trying to surprise her. We had ordered a cake but needed to figure out a way to get it there without her noticing. When my other friend called the restaurant, they were able to hold the cake for us in the morning and then bring it to the table as a surprise. Rene was already informed by staff, so when we arrived, he was already in on the plan. At the end of dinner, the cake was brought out, and it was such a nice surprise. Special thanks to Rene and the staff at Quartino—you are all amazing.More infoQuartino - ChicagoPrice: Moderate• Italian• River North (Chicago)•4.6
- JJenniferVIPChicago / Illinois •16 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoBeautiful restaurant. Lively atmosphere with attentive service. Bread service is nice with the addition of flaky salt and olives. Cacio e Pepe is tasty but could have even more pepper! The ribeye was cooked well and nicely seasoned! Enjoyed the Parmesan potatoes and salad that accompanied the steak. Service was excellent. It was valentines night and we were in a hurry to get to the theater. The server spaced out our meal perfectly to not feel rushed but also got us out in time for our show!!!More infoOlio e Più - ChicagoPrice: Expensive• Italian• River North (Chicago)•4.4
