One of a kind. You won't find a place like this anywhere else. All kosher meals. Clean fresh elegant food. Displayed real well. Host and waitress are very friendly and respectful. Very pricey but expected for the quality of food. Generous servings. A lot of parking available and wheelchairs accessable. Interior is designed very fancy and elegant.

Due to unforseen circumstances we could not complete our last day of vacation ritual of "linner" at L Woods (restaurant in Lincolnwood & direct competition to this Bistro). So, in a hurry, this was our next option. Never been, but decided on it just because they had available seating and it was on the path towards ORD. For the money spent, cannot believe the low quality. The waiter was alright. The food was not worth the costs/ spend. I would have rather spent that money at L Woods, Mantra, any seafood boiler restaurant, etc I think you get the picture. If I'm going to spend $$$$ monies, the food and experience should be worth it. Why? Chicken tenders were stringy and more dry than juicy. The kids weren't thrilled being forced to eat them. The meat soup (some concoction with ground beef) was as my old man put it, "very salty." He said this boldly to me while shaking his head. The head shaking signifies, he ate it because I ordered it. Otherwise, he hated it. The brisket sandwiches for the men were a bore. Management should consider putting an Angus patty on there. I have had better brisket at common BBQ joints. And $25 for loaded hand cut fries.. What TF was I thinking.. Ugh. I could keep going but why bother. Paid enough to help them keep utility bills paid. The interior looks like a restaurant wanting to be a fine dining bistro. #Poser The execution is the problem. Food is meh.. So many problems and the menu costs are outrageously overpriced. I doubt I could/ would ever return. Also why don't they have a manager making rounds inquiring with customers to check on their satisfaction. That's what fine dining establishments do..Joel G. Nailed it in his review when he said, "certainly not worth the price of Ruth Chris." Which is one of the top steakhouses in the city.

Sorry it's been 2 years since I've updated my review, I've been here many times since as its one of my favorite places to dine. This time we were tempted by the special Channukah menu. I must say, though I'm still giving it 5 stars, in the future I'll stick with the regular menu. We started with the turkey soup which we agreed was super delicious, things from there went down hill but then, thankfully uphill. We then tried the trio of latkes: butternut squash, potato, and zucchini- meh. Then the brisket latke tacos which were quite tasty but greasy and messy and I'd rather just eat a deconstructed version of those. The sufganyot, well, what could be bad! We ate in an enclosed tent which we'd have been leary of but we were the only ones in there (went for a very early lunch). We had a heater at each side of the table and were quite comfortable. As usual, our server was very good. Please continue to supporting our kosher restaurants through these tough times and always.

So sad. The menu sounded delicious, but the food was very disappointing. Other reviewers call this a fine dining establishment, I suppose because of the prices. But there is nothing fine happening here. The rolls were meh. I asked for butter and was told they only have margarine and then they brought an orange mayonnaise like substance and a brown sauce. We were never able to determine what these dips were. They were not margarine.People, please stop referring to this restaurant as fine dining.I ordered the California roll, which was a little heavy on the rice but OK overall. My son and I had the chicken rice soup, and were told the cup was $8 and the bowl was $10. So he got the cup and I got the bowl. They both appeared to be the same volume. When the bill arrived the prices were $9 and $12. My son ordered the salmon which was served completely raw. He did not order the sushi but rather the regular salmon dinner. It was raw. Husband ordered the chicken piccata. He said it was bland and tasted more like a kids meal.In their defense they did comp the salmon and the sushi which ended up taking $49 off the bill so we walked out of there paying less than $100.But beware, their prices are astronomical and they do add 20% to the bill without any questions. We were only a party of three so I had never seen that for a party of three.

I arrived to meet some new friends for valentines day. The ambiance was so lovely, dim lights and the seating was very appropriate with the covid guidelines. Also this is a kosher restaurant which was super cool. We immediately were seated and asked for our drink orders.I ordered the lemon drop super delicious. Our waiter was also very patient with us because we were in such deep conversation and he allowed us to talk and was patient when we took a little longer to decide on our orders. We all ordered steaks, some came with asparagus, shallots, and mashed potatoes. A man came around and gave each of us a rose!!!! That was the sweetest gesture because we were 3 ladies out on valentines day with no male dates lol. Now to the steaks, They were BIG 10oz & very dense lol. I had mine cooked medium and it came with asparagus & shallots. We all enjoyed our meals. We got our checks and it comes in one so we just split it 3 ways to make it easier for the waiter. Overall the meal was delicious, drinks were great, and the ambiance is nice. I recommend this restaurant for a nice date night or even a business dinner.

How is this place still open. This is the worst restaurant I have ever eaten at. I have begrudgingly eaten here multiple times and it somehow tops itself by getting worse every time. Crazy expensive for mediocre food and horrible service. Paint peeling from the walls, dust all over the chandeliers, the booths are falling apart. I don't think this place can even be saved. Had to move from a booth to a table because of the ants. Then had to deal with the knats at the table. Came here for my daughter's birthday and they brought mine and my wife's food out 30 minutes before they brought out my kids food. My son ordered asparagus and the removed the tops, your supposed to cut off the bottom of the asparagus not the tops, the tops are the best part. Like an old sick dog this restaurant needs to be taken out back and put down. If I could give it negative stars I would.
