We love this place, but be ready for a whole new menu! We used to love the duck nachos now replaced with duck tostados...they are good but not like the nachos. That could be personal though. The place is still wonderful. Our waiter was amazing a lot of fun. It is now owned by the same restaurant group that owns Union League, but still nothing like Union League-the atmosphere is still the same.

The petite filet, garlic mashed potatoes, and creamed spinach was excellent - as usual!!! The service (by Lexi) was also terrific - not too overbearing and just right. Lexi was terrific!!! Thank you, Iron Chef Chop House for making our Christmas holidays even merrier!!!

Olea always delivers. We had another great dinner. The oysters, the heads-on shrimps and the octopus were amazing. I had my usual, the duck confit, which was as delicious as ever. Once again, their service was impeccable. Juan Carlos, the owner, is such a nice man. Thank you for the wonderful dinner.
