   Definitely not a place for a quiet dinner, especially in the late evening. We spent an hour waiting on our first course for what was a fixed menu. The waitress was very kind though and made sure that we at least always had some drinks while we waited. The food tasted amazing as long as you don’t mind being bumped into by all the foot traffic going to the bar. I would definitely try it again but maybe not as late though to avoid the chaos the evening brings .

   The Vday menu 3 course was absolutely terrible. And what a rip off for such terrible food. We wanted their regular menu and they forced us into this.

   Our waitress was amazing. Environment was great. Fixed menu which was disappointing and not mentioned when making the reservation and the soup was cold. Drinks were great. Service and food delivery was quick and attentive Valet was ridiculous at $25

   It was a good experience overall. The wait staff was timely and understanding as we were on a tight timeline to catch a show. There was just some missed communication/ misunderstanding that the menu was going to be set specifically for Valentine’s Day upon booking the reservation. There was 3 course meal which was very delicious but again did not expect to be the only thing we could order for dinner. We were very excited for dinner based on looking at the menu when booking a few weeks earlier.

   Everything was great. The service at bar was phenomenal. Jenna the server was great. The bartender was wonderful. Andre was very friendly and made sure everything was up to standards. Can’t wait to go back soon.

   This place was so awful. Let’s start with the Valentine’s venue $100 person is insane in this economy for the amount of food that was provided. The food itself was nasty, no flavor and it was cold. Understandable it was valentines but we were one of the first couples to be seated but the wait for the food was ridiculous. We left this restaurant hungry after spending a ridiculous amount of money.

   We visited Hubbard Inn last evening to celebrate a family member’s birthday and also to enjoy the Chicago Restaurant Week menu. This was our first visit and we couldn’t have been more pleased - the good selections we all chose were delicious, as were the cocktails (expansive list of options). Our server, Sandra was the true highlight of our experience - she was so kind and attentive throughout our visit. We look forward to a return visit.

   Food was great but my god, EDM blasting at 7pm during dinner service? Could not understand my waitress because the music was so loud. Really kinda ruined the vibe.

   I was not refunded back my security deposits when both parties spent well over the deposits. Called to get the issue solved and have not been able to speak with anyone!

    It took WAY too long to order and receive drinks/food. We were on time for 1:30 reservation. We did not finish until almost 4pm! Our server was friendly, but she did not touch the table much. I ordered steak and eggs. The steak was cooked to the correct temp, however it was TOUGH. Considering the price point, this was not acceptable. But it took so long to get the food, I did not want to delay so I ate it. The flavor was good. Everyone was happy with their dish, though the amount seemed smaller than what it should have been. Out of our 5, there were 2 that wanted to go to McDonald's to get a burger after. They both had the shrimp & grits. Overall, I think this is a place that caters to people looking to drink, not so much foodies. While the food was just ok, the music and ambience was conducive to a party. If I were to visit again, I'd go back for apps and drinks only.
