Boarding House

I called to make a reservation for birthday dinner, but host can only make a reservation up to a certain party of people. I was told that it shouldn’t be a problem for me to call back the next day to make a reservation since they have a lot of availability on a date that I wanted to make a reservation on. I called the next day to make a reservation with a manager and I was informed that they are booked and do not have any availability. The manager didn’t apologized and just said unfortunately they will not be able to make a reservation. It’s really the service that brings people back in hospitality and they absolutely failed.

Nice decor with the bar on the first floor and seating on the second floor. The place is a little dark at night, but it’s just to set the mood. Good food and service. I liked the unique form of cheesecake they have. A nice place to grab some food in Chicago. It would also work as a place for date night.

I thoroughly enjoyed my experience here. My Manhattan was almost as good at Nick's. The mixologists was very pleasant. The existence of taking the elevator to our for was awesome. We started with shaved Brussels sprouts, octopus and something I can't recall. But the octopus was the best I've had anywhere. It was so tender, I was expecting a little chewy, but not here. This was great. The Brussels sprouts were very good as well. Shaving them made a huge difference. For my entree I had the duck. It was so good. It came with more Brussels sprouts, convered in walnuts, and it was very crispy. A little over done, but still quite good. The service was excellent, we never wanted for anything, but it was never intrusive. We all had a great time. I can't wait to go back.

Attended a company dinner in one of the private rooms. The short ribs were tender and amazing. I tried the scallops too and they were also good. Even the bread was nice and warm. Everyone was pleased and happy with their meals. Excellent service.

First class date restaurant with inventive to traditional dishes full of flavor and cooked to perfection. Even the Amish Chicken had some real flair and as savory as it gets. The wine list is impeccable and the service was friendly and fun. The decor is classic with some stunning architectural touches. My new favorite restaurant in Chicago.

Bar on the first floor; dining room on the 3rd. Both menus are available on either floor. We ate in the dining room but ordered off bar menu. Short rib sliders were delish -- well balanced with horseradish sauce. Bib salad was tasty. Drinks were very flavorful. We found the cheeseburger spicier (chile hot) than expected. I assume it was the garlic aioli on it. Overall good meal for a decent price. Service was very good, but a bit slow.

Can you guys open a restaurant in SF? This was a whole new experience. A mean, food was very good, but the restaurant was super cool. Old building in old town transformed into a very eclectic and chic place. The decor is insanely cool, chandeliers and more. I actually liked the first floor better than the second, the second floor was a little more stiffed but still nice. Great menu, awesome cocktails and good food. Staff could've been a little friendlier but they were good still. Would recommend for a work function.

This will be the third time I am bringing my dog to Aunt Bee's for boarding. The owners are very personable and it is obvious how much they care about the...
