Somerset

Came here for dinner and drinks and really liked it! Thought the service and ambience were great. The weather was beautiful so got to sit outside, but the inside looked very nice too. For drinks I had the ciao-biscus and tajinarito. Both were great, albeit a little diluted. For food we tried the crispy pretzel calamari, herb crusted salmon, and baba ganoush. Highly recommend the salmon! It was plentiful, cooked well, and tasty. Skip the calamari - there was hardly any and it didn't taste of pretzels. The baba ganoush was good. Overall had a great experience and would come back! Recommend!

Located on the first floor my the Viceroy, the vibes were calling my name! My friend and I were greeted by the hostess who was able to seat outside. Great table to people watch and soak up some sun rays. We sat for about 10 - 15 mins before my friend went inside to ask about our server. Finally someone came to get our drink orders. We put in our food order too. After the sun moved over the patio, it got a little colder. We noticed blankets, so I went inside and asked for a couple. Our server was nice, however overall service was slow especially for not many people dining at the restaurant. It took some time for our drinks and food to arrive. The server acknowledged this and comped our first round of drinks. That was kind of him, but ready to leave. For lunch, my friend ordered the short rib shakshuka and I ordered a strawberry rhubarb croffin. Both were delicious!

Normally, we don't look to eat at restaurants in hotels. However, looking at the reviews of Somerset and their menu made us ignore that thought. The inside dining room of the Somerset is very nice and has a nice bar with a TV. The outdoor seating is exceptional, and being a nice day outside made us land there.Our wait person, Liz, quickly greeted us and brought menus and water to us. We ordered a couple of nice cocktails, the Peachy Clean and the Spice is Right. They both were very tasty.The Burrata with strawberry compote sounded terrific. We also decided to split the Prix Fixe Menu for lunch. Our first course was butternut squash soup. It was quite thick with pepitas in it. It was extraordinarily delicious, some of the best we've ever had. The Burrata was accompanied with perfectly cooked ciabatta and was a fantastic dish for the table. Our second course was the herb crusted salmon with lentils and white asparagus in a yummy berbere sauce. The salmon was cooked exactly per our request. We will definitely get this unique salmon dish again!Our dessert was very good key lime cheesecake with a small scoop of vanilla ice cream. The restaurant was getting quite busy. All of the staff, including Trish, the manager, was helping everyone else out. Adam, the bartender, came to tell us they were out of the red wine I had ordered. What was really sharp was that he brought a sample of a similar wine that he thought I would like instead. Besides being very friendly, our wait person, Liz, was helpful informing us about different menu items. Overall, our experience at Somerset was one of the best we've had in a long time. And, fyi, the Viceroy, the hotel that houses the Somerset seems quite nice.

Surprised the quality of the food was so-so because the location is great and the atmosphere was nice with live music. The place was understaffed so there was only 1 waiter for the whole inside and outside and it took 2 hours to get food. I think there is potential for this place to be decent if they can hire more staff. The waiter did outstanding though for serving so many tables without showing stress and was very nice. However would I go back for the food if the service improved? Absolutely not.

This is the CUTEST place to brunch. I went here solo on a quick trip to Chicago and absolutely loved how cute the space was. It's really good for photos and the food was pretty good as well. They have a lot of really unique pastries and drinks. My waitress was really sweet and definitely made sure I was okay from time to time. I would definitely come here for brunch with the girlies or for a nice morning date!

The strawberry/rhubarb Cruffin is heavenly!Perfect crunchy exterior and light, flaky, moist interior.The strawberry/rhubarb filling isn't too sweet but packs that glorious summer flavor. Exactly the right amount of purée vs pastry ratio.I wish I could have eaten in the restaurant but I was in a rush. The music and atmosphere was so calm and inviting. Pastry chef is Crushing IT!!!

Came here for dessert and champagne for my bday. Beautiful ambiance great service and the dessert menu was delish!!

Came in for yet another work lunch. The menu had changed for the better - simple yet enticing options. the service seemed new but still swift and attentive compared to prior experiences.We had the calamari to share, which seemed to lack salt. I liked the pimiento peppers on top. Many ordered the salads with some protein. A few ordered burgers. i got the steak frites but opted for brussels sprouts instead of fries. The prix fixe menu looked enticing too for the value. I would look forward to returning this time.

I went to the Somerset by myself on a business trip. The food, service and ambiance were amazing. The coffee was fresh and I never had to wait for a refill. I sat near the window and enjoyed the view while waiting for my food. I had the breakfast sandwich which had homemade chicken sausage (patty) and crispy potatoes. I don't usually eat the potatoes but they were so good! Hope to come back soon!

We had brunch here on a Saturday and it was 3/4 full seemed like. Made reservations but still waited alittle bit to get service at the table, so plan ahead. Once we ordered it was quick for the food to come out and it was all very good. If you are looking for a nice patio on a nice day, check it out for sure. The inside has a cool center bar that looks pretty iconic.
