hostess was rude to my brother when he first got there, my citrus cured salmon was either gross or just not my cup of tea, my brother never got the toast that was supposed to come with his skillet.

We made a reservation for 7pm and waited a half hour to be seated. It then took 15 minutes for us to get a waitress and then the drinks came much after the food. We’re very disappointed and likely won’t be back

Luxbar was slammed last night, but Alicia, our server, really came through. Despite the chaos, she was remarkably attentive and friendly. It’s rare to find that level of service on a night like that. She managed to keep our table running smoothly, even with the constant influx of people, and her recommendations were solid. Honestly, her efficiency and positive attitude made the whole experience way better than it would have been otherwise. Definitely a solid spot, and Alicia deserves a shoutout. Glad I came here for my friend’s birthday.

I am writing to express my sincere appreciation for the exceptional service we experienced during our recent visit to Luxbar, by Ryan the general manager. Despite a wait due to a crowded environment, I was thoroughly impressed by how Ryan and his team handled the situation. Although our reservation seemed to have fallen between the cracks, your dedication as the general manager did not go unnoticed. Your efforts to rectify the situation were commendable, and it truly enhanced our overall experience at Luxbar. I would also like to extend my gratitude to Sofie, our server, who demonstrated remarkable professionalism. Her kindness, attentiveness, and attention to detail significantly contributed to making our visit enjoyable. It is evident that both you and Sofie are invaluable assets to the Luxbar team. Thank you once again for your outstanding service. I look forward to returning to Luxbar and will definitely recommend it to friends and family.

We were in town for a convention and a group of 11 dined here. The food was superb, the ambiance was gorgeous, and a time was had by all. Each of us walked away fat, full and satisfied. Most had steak, that was cooked to perfection. The French onion soup packed a punch, the drinks were scrumptious. This is a much dine when you're in the Chicagoland area.
