    My cousins, sister, and I finally took our plans out of the group chat and went to Hide + Seek for dinner! We did the restaurant week menu which was AMAZING! We sampled all sorts of food and the portions were more than enough, in fact, we had plenty of extra to take home with us for a midnight snack. The octopus, short rib and lumache pasta were some of our favs! Also HUGE THANK YOU to Nick our server. He was so nice and funny! Made good conversation with us and very interactive (: Thanks for the experience!!!

    Food and drinks were outstanding and the service was enjoyable. The tables are a little tight and the music was far too loud when we went (Friday at 8pm). Looking forward to visiting again and trying more of the menu.

    Been a few times. Best video ever of Chicago. Want to come as much as possible. The experience for us has been excellent, couldn’t be better. The people is what it’s all about for me, they single you out, make time, ask questions and genuinely care about you and then your satisfaction and then your business. We love them as people, employees and then food in that order. Food cheaper than you would expect. 5 star from us, love you all, thanks for a great week, see you soon again,
