    Our waiter was wondering. He was very kind and accommodating. Food was good and large portions. We asked to sit in a different spot and host was very accommodating too.

    New menu, food was good… Service was lax. Had to flying down our server multiple times and things were coming out late. Not a great show for restaurant week. It seems they have gone down a notch from upscale dining down to upscale diner.

    Great place to have brunch as it's so convenient to the Gene Siskel theater. I LOVED the breakfast biscuit with egg, ham, bacon, but wish there were a more interesting cheese on it. My 3 friends loved their breakfast specials too. Was as tasty a restaurant as it's always been! Only issue is there seems to be no way to reach the restaurant, even the Hotel the cafe is in tries to connect me. I left some personal belongings at the table and I wanted to confirm they found it. Too bad!

    The slowest possible service you can imagine. Our waitress never showed up so the host/manager took our order. No one came to take our plates or bring us the check so I had to ask another random waiter. Horrible service for a place with such expensive and mediocre food.
    AtwoodResponded on January 26, 2025
    Nate, We do apologize for the service you received. This is not the experience we want any of our guests to have. We have shared your review with our team and are using it as a tool to improve in all aspects. We would love to have you back and so we can make this right for you.

    Solid experience. Good, not great. Very friendly staff who tried to please just fell a little short. Sat 10 minutes before we spoke to a server with only 2 other tables sat in the dining room. Ordered the soup as a starter. Sent it back as it arrived luke warm - hot on the second try. Chicken Milanese and Brownie Dessert were both delicious. Server offered hot water for my tea but then forgot to bring it until asked. Would give them another try. Yummy food, lovely room, server was for sure trying, very convenient location for the theater.

    The staff is outstanding! Welcoming, gracious, kind and very much concerned with their clientele’s comfort. Possibly the best across-the-board customer service profile it has ever been my pleasure to experience! Well done, Atwood!
