    Here for St Patrick's Day and wasn't expecting some wonderful live Irish music playing here so that was fun to watch. Service was A++, food and cocktails were delicious. I had the lobster roll that came with a tower of fries. The signature RL brownie with ice cream was divine!!!

    I have normally loved my experience here, but for some reason this time was different. Last night our server was very obviously annoyed with any request we had. Did not try to conceal his distaste, which is very unprofessional. Even the busser was upset when asked for our food to go.

    I've been dining at RL for about 25 years and it's my go-to restaurant. Sometimes it can get a little tourist-y but that's because it's a Chicago icon. The RL team remains stellar and we were so happy to have Scott as our server tonight. And the host team were so gracious to seat us in the dining room when we almost got seated in the bar area by the front door on a chilly wet day. (Always my last choice for seating, just an FYI) Food was amazing, as always! If you live in the area or go to RL fairly regularly, it's always fun to run into friends!

    Amanda and the rest of the staff were excellent. Service beyond expectations as Amanda was polite, efficient with no mistakes in the food order or drinks! Reservation was accommodating as well to increase from 4 to 8 with only 3 hrs notice. Have been in the past but will continue to visit given such overwhelming service! Better than recent Michelin 3 star rated restaurant we went to last year during trip to Chicago even.

    Luxurious seating with the most comfortable chairs ever. The most delicious chopped salad with lobster and wonderful friendly service. We were treated like royalty. Can’t wait to return!

    We were seated in the lounge approx. 15 minutes after our reservation time. The cocktails were very good, but the mains were outstanding. We ordered the salmon special and the veal milanese. The preparation of the veal is the best i’ve had and will definitely order it again.
