    LOVEDDDDD THE DRAG BRUNCH! SO ENERGETIC! My friends and I had such a fun time! There could have been a bit more of the Moulin Rouge music for the theme of Moulin Rouge, but other than that, the girls were FAB! The food was good, but would have loved to see the menu prior to determine if it was possible to swap an item out as one of my friends was pregnant and also had a sensitivity to walnuts, so she couldn't eat the salad. The ambience was so elegant though and the bottomless mimosas were perfect!

    One of our favorite local go to Hinsdale restaurants. We usually make a 5:00 pm reservation because the next reservation can’t be made until 7 45pm We usually sprit a Wedge Salad…big enough for two. One of my favorite appetizers is mussels with toast points..20-25 nice size per serving…works as a main for me. Tried Bananas Foster for dessert with soft serve ice cream…really good for (again)split for two.

    The food is always exceptional, our server was great. The only problem we encountered was the bus boy took away my wife’s cocktail before she finished it. He did not ask if she was done, just took it away. We mentioned it to our server and she brought my wife another drink. She was great. All in all we love the Chew Chew and mistakes do happen. We will be back.
