   Service was mediocre. Took forever to get our drinks. Then they called last call at 8pm when the website says they don't close until 10:00 on Sunday, so we were very confused about what was going on. Food was okay, but not great. Limited gluten free options and everything was waaaaay overpriced. One thing to know is that they charge a 4% service charge, but you could ask for it to be removed. Thankfully we read about this in very small print on their menu so we asked for that charge to be removed and saved ourselves an extra $8, which maybe covered the cost of a soda. The place was decorated very cute for Christmas and is worth a one-time experience to see what it's all about. Just make sure you have reservations or you're not getting in and you will be scolded.

   Very fun place. Food and drinks were quite expensive but overall tastes good and the experience was fun.

   Thank you for the great review! 🎄✨ We’re so glad you enjoyed the food, drinks, and overall experience. We know the prices are on the higher side, but with the rising costs of goods and labor—and all it takes to bring the Christmas magic to Chicago—we do our best to make it worth the visit. Hope to see you again for more holiday fun!

   Tables were dirty and one soft pretzel took 30 minutes. We go every year and the quality seems to go downhill more each year.

   Very cool aesthetic. Awesome place to take pics. Wasn’t very busy and service took a while. WAAAAY over priced. I mean $13 for a regular mug of hot chocolate. Food was cold and not very good. One and done

   Thank you for your feedback—we’re glad you enjoyed the aesthetic and photo ops! 🎄✨ We’re sorry the service and food didn’t meet your expectations. As for pricing, we know it’s high, but it reflects the rising costs of goods, labor, and the effort to bring the magic of Santa Baby to life. We appreciate your visit and hope you’ll consider giving us another shot in the future!

   Decorations were great but the service was not. We were told we could only order off the brunch menu when everyone around us who was there before us ordered off the lunch menu. It took a really long time.

   The holiday decor is over the top in a great way. The customer service is terrible. Tons of spots open and they sat my family at the door where we were freezing. Thoughtless decision ruined the experience and made it not worth the high food prices.

   Thank you for your feedback—we’re glad you loved the holiday decor! 🎄✨ We’re so sorry to hear about the seating experience and the impact it had on your visit. While it might have looked like there were open spots, many of those tables are reserved for upcoming reservations, which limits our ability to move guests. We understand how frustrating this can be and will address this with our team to improve. Thank you for sharing your experience!

   Went for Santa Baby experience and it was AMAZING. I originally made reservations for the wrong date and it filled up- I was able to send a message and she changed the date for us (Thank you!!) When we checked in I was greeted with a birthday card signed by everyone (thank you!). All three stories were immersed in Christmas decoration. It wasn’t overly crowded, even for a Friday at 9pm. The drinks were good, service was 10/10. And as tiki bar lovers, we will be back next time we are in Chicago!
