- BBeyoncéChicago / Illinois •5 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoI recommend the RPM chopped salad, the oysters, the grilled octopus, the clam chowder soup and the filet. It was AMAZING! I apologize in advance I forgot our servers name, she remembered all my notes I put and explained the menu with details. She made it very special! Exactly what I wanted for my boyfriend’s birthday dinner! She was a pretty blonde girl, she’s wonderful! If anyone can give me her name I would love to recommend her to my friends if they want to dine here!More infoRPM SeafoodPrice: Very Expensive• Seafood• River North (Chicago)•4.7
- WWhitneyVIPLas Vegas •1 review5.0Dined 2 days agoThe food and vibes were great! Our waitress, Casey, was amazing. Only thing that was really annoying was their obvious urge to turn tables over. In a matter of minutes, we had 4-5 separate people try to take our food that we were clearly still eating (literally said “no thank you, we’re still working on that” while we were mid-chew). The same thing happened with our drinks. We had a bottle of champagne in an ice bag that we repeatedly had people take out of the bag to check how much was remaining. Other than feeling rushed, this place was awesome.More infoPizzeria PortofinoPrice: Expensive• Italian• River North (Chicago)•4.8
- GGregoryChicago / Illinois •4 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoFirst off, I would like to say that our server Fran was not only very attentive, but she was very thorough describing the food. She was also very patient with us individually to help us make our selections. We started with the Empanada De Tamalito which were outstanding. The entrée choices were Churrasco Escabechado, the steak was very tender much to my liking and the plantains really outstanding. We ordered four servings of Lomo Saltado and boy am I telling you my friends swore this was the best meal they have ever had. I can’t wait to eat my leftovers, I wanted so bad to eat the rest when I returned home but I was stuffed. Last but not least the dessert was chart topping, I don’t remember the name but ice cream was served with it. It is a must have. Overall for my friends it was their first experience at a Peruvian restaurant and they scored it a 10.More infoTantaPrice: Expensive• Peruvian• River North (Chicago)•4.7
- JJakeChicago / Illinois •1 review5.0Dined 6 days agoThe cocktails here are some of the best in Chicago. They are made with attention and detail, and are beautifully balanced and delicious. The Mahi tacos were delicious, and the sweet potato fries were better than I’ve ever had. My partner and I were wonderfully taken care of by our server and the hosts up front. We love it here, and return whenever we can!More infoThree Dots and a DashPrice: Expensive• Cocktail Bar• River North (Chicago)•4.7
