    We had a great dinner experience at RPM seafood! Our server was Jessica and she is so personable and offers great service. We tried one of the off menu specials she let us know about and it was delicious; we asked for some recommendations and nothing disappointed! The scramble eggs and truffle dish was surprisingly delicious and the octopus was cooked perfectly. We really enjoyed the tempura Tai which was a great balance of fish and crunchy tempura. We finished with the banana dessert which was not overly heavy and a great way to end a full meal. We are thankful for Jessica as service felt seamless.

    Joe’s is the premium steak house in Chicago! Service is not matched anywhere! Wine list is excellent and food UNBELIEVABLE! A random observation- the light level is excellent, you can actually see the food and move around the restaurant without fear of breaking your leg! Many other steakhouses are so dark, it’s a drag to see and go to the bathroom! We were delayed a tiny bit by a previous couple, Joe’s gifted us an order of Stone crab, just so thoughtful! I have been a fan of Joe’s since it first open in Chicago. Still the Best Steak/Wine list/Dessert/SERVICE IN TOWN ! NOT SUPER LOUD.
